Professor Fling came to the uni versity in 1891 where he served until the time of his death with the exception of periodic trips to Europe for historical research.

Twenty years were spent by Dr. Fling on one of his most scholarly works, a history of civilization.

REGISTRATION FOR MUSIC COURSE OrEXS 4 O High Scliool Roys and Girls Expected to Enroll. j Approximately seventy-five boyi and girls are expected to register today for the second annual four weeks' summer session of the all state high school orchestra and choral course from June 11 to July 7, according to Howard Kirkpat rick, director of the school of music.

Wide Gap Between tion is necessary before any report may be made. . In explaining the need for bridg- " ing this gap between school and t employment, Mr. Reed pointed out that during the depression many thousands of young people who v had been graduating from schools and colleges had faced little chance of securing employment. There are probably 16,500,000 young men and women between 16 and 25 in this country who are not in some school, college, or CCC camp While some of these are employed, a very large number of them or in need of this type of work to prei ! serve their morale. How to change the type of edu- cation so as to care for these larg groups not in sympathy with work now found there and how to aoa, complish this end was among the points studied at the Washington, conference. In connection with how; to quickly change the type of eduf cation, the Nebraska eupprvtee correspondence study feork ir&jj 1 considered. " . j TEACHERS
