N. Y. Educator Pronounces
Activities of Great Value
McConn States New
Employer Viewpoint
NEW YORK. X. Y. U P.) Edu
cators are beginning to tako
cognizance of the demand of em
ployers for college trained men
and women witli a background of
experience in undergraduate ac
tivities, according to Dr. Charles
Maxwell McConn. dean of the New
York University Washington
Square college.
"We can no longer overlook the
fact that interest and ability in
the many activities outside the
classroom have a definite voca
tional i.s well as educational bene
fits." Dean McConn said.
Dean McC-nn cited the develop
ment of extra curricula r activities
as one of the major trends in mod
ern education.
Recognition of Value.
"There i.s now nearly universal
recognition and deliberate cultiva
tion of the educational values of
extracurricular activities. Until a
comparatively short time ago few
educators would concede that
extracurricular activities had any
values that could properly be
called educational. The utmost
utility we would concede them was
that they channeled off the high

spirits of youth and were less ob
noxious than alcoholic orgies or
traditional rowdy pranks like
hoisting the president's cow into
the chapel belfry.
"Because of this former blind
ness of O'.lrs, the development of
extra turric.ular education was for
a number of years left entirely to
j the students themselves, without
faculty or administrative support
was indeed intermittently
sabotaged by ingenious faculty re
strictions. It was in the main the
newer types of students brought
in by the new enrollment tide,
rather than the older. more
bookish type, who did this job of
educational enterprising for us.
"Everywhere now we support
and develop them. The latest
phase of this development, and
the most fruitful, consists in tying
in these activities as laboratory
adjuncts of parallel instructional
offerings, an integration of extra
curriculum and curriculum, to the
enrichment and stimulation o!
both."

Grad Home From War
Japanese Terminate Snipes' Cruise
A start on a round-the-world cruise; dentention in Shanghai
by the Slno-Japanese war; a year and three months as war corres
pondent for the United Press, is. in short, the recent biographical
sketch of. Johnston Snipes, '37, university graduate and past staff
member of The Daily Nebraska!!.
Thrilling nnd unusual expe
riences by the dozen filled the
every day life of Snipes. The get
ting of first accounts of the
fighting during the bombing and
shelling nf Shanghai gave him an
understanding of death, starva
tion, misery, humor, and drama
which all go to make up war.
On one occasion. Snipes and a
British reporter, lYnihroki: Ste
phens, were covering the shell
ing of the coolie section of Hie
city. A giant shell whined over
head nnd burst near the two Im
porters, killing Stephens, Snipes
miraculously escaped.
According to Snipes, any per
son was In danger of death ,he
moment that he stepped beyond
the boundary separating the In
ternationl settlement from the
rest of the city.
Japs Seize Cables.
When the Japanese occupied
the city, tlicy seized the United
l'rrss cable offices where Snipes
was employed. After that time,
all material going out over the
rallies was censored and passed
upon by the off leers of that
army. However, the correspond
ents managed to get the accounts
of the ligliling as it actually hap
pened, to the rest of the world
by private radio and mail.
Snipes does not intend to re
turn to China. His first trip there
was by accident. While visiting
in Caliofrnia, he ha, I a cbanco to
buy a round the world cruise
ticket at a reduced rate, lie took
the offer and sailed to Shanghai
where officials refused to permit
him to leave the city. With lit
tle or no effort, he managed to
get a job with the United l'ress.

A Gift Of
Two Wars Touch
Texas Library
Spanish, Chinese
Book Dealers Close
AUSTIN, Tex. (IP). The Uni
versity of Texas library is feeling
the pressure of the tense world
international situation. The li
brary recently received a letter
from the Shanghai agent who fur
nishes it with books from the far
east, expressing ms uianss lor an
; order for two volumes. But no two
volumes came with it.
"We regret to have to advise
that these cannot be had at pres
ent." the dealer wrote, "as the
offices of the publishers have been
closed by the Japanese military
authorities. They are likely to re
main closed until nfter the con
clusion of the present hostilities."
! The library is now virtually out
I of direct touch with the two dan
ger spots of the world the far
east and Spain. Two years ago its
: Madrid dealer and six months ago
its Barcelona dealer regretted that
their business relations with thel
world must cease until "certain,
difficulties" were cleared up.
