' EARN COLLEGE CREDIT
2000 Men and Women Take
University Work in
Study Centers.
More than 2,000 men and women
have earned university credit in
the 100 study centers sponsored
by the university extension divi
sion, it was revealed in the Uni
versity Extension News issued last
week. Because of the interest
shown by students over the state,
the department is preparing to set
up new study centers in co-operation
with the county superintend
ents of schools, the bulletin states.
; Enrollment in the organization is
in terms of university hours and
the work, when satisfactorily com
pleted, can be applied towards an
undergraduate degree, used for
certification purposes, or trans
ferred from the University of Ne
braska to some other institution.
Last summer there was one
county in the state in which three
study centers were operating
simultaneously. The interest thown
in the projects is partly attributed
to the fact that students attending
the centers could stay at home,
thus saving money.
Men and women enrolling in the
study centers must agree to spend
a minimum of five hours a day,
five days a week, in attendance
and work at the center, and the ex
tension division advises those reg
istering to enroll for not fewer
than one-half nor more than three
fnurthn as manv hours as there
are weeks in which the project is
to operate. Tnus, a center wnicn
plans to operate for a period of
eight weeks should have enroll
ment for not fewer than six hours
and not more than nine hours of
work.
Students must furnish thilr own
texts, meet the postage expense on
lessons sent in and returned, and
must provide themselves with the
necessary Btudy supplies and
equipment.

Organized.
Completed plans for the sum
mer session recreation program
were formally drafted Wednes
day noon, when the recreation
committee met at the office of
Prof. E. W. Lantz, chairman.
Major emphasis this year is be
ing placed on the boys' and girl:

drawn a record number of stu
dents. On both Monday and Tues
day nights, twenty-five men and
women were out practicing. Prac
tices are being held Monday, Tues

of Social Science building.
L. L. Patterson, director of the
boys' baseball team, expects to
start coaching the women's team
Monday, and when the practice
games are completed, arrange
ments will probably be made for
games with Lincoln and out of
town teams. The men expect to
start games with other local teams
in the near future.
Horseshoes Available Now.
Arrangements for horseshoes
have been made, and anyone in
terested in the sport either for re
