April issue of the Nebraska
Pine Print, official publication of

1 80 institutions
offer radio work
Ohio State professor
points out great growth
COLUMBUS, O. (IP). Phenome
nal growth in the number of uni
versity speech courses related to
radio was pointed out here by Don-
aid W. Riley of Ohio State univer
sity.
Five years ago, Riley said, 16
universities offered radio in.st.ruc
tion. Today, 180 institutions offer
radio work for academic credit
"Few other currioular items even
remotely approach such phenome
nal growth," he added.
"When college officials found
that students were needing, and
asking for, training in the new art
these officials turned, m most in
stances, to the speech, phonetics,
and drama people on their staffs,
according to the Ohio State man
with the result that more than
half the courses and nearly two
thirds of the credit hours now of
fered in American universities are
to be found in speech departments
Much of the early chaos and cut
ficulty arising irom the rapid
growth in this field, Riley declared
has been solved thru better train
Ing of teachers and more informa
tion concerning techniques.
He also pointed out that "need
less dissipation of time, energy,
and money ia fee in r stopped be
cause prominent educators and
commercial raota officials see that
co-operation benefits both, fac
tions." Methodist council

Walls of room
take the place
of crib notes
MADISON, Wis. (ACP). Some
use black coriee, some use criD
notes, and some just forget it. But
the University of Wisconsin's
Louis Sinitzky has found the best
way yet to review.
Lew's wall is decorated by large
sheets of paper covered with what
at first sight look like Chinese
symbols. Seen from a closer view
these mysterious figures resolve
into organic chemistry formulas.
The semester s work in organic
chemistry is outlined on these
walls. Lew feels they are safer
here than in a notebook, because a
notebook can easily be lost.
But why so high? Well, you
see, when standing up 10 siuay
you're less apt to fall asleep, and
even if you should fall asleep,
you'd wake up when you hit the
floor.
Now here's a secret! Lew is
moving from his apartment in a
few weeks, so if you're beginning
organic chemistry next semester,
it might be worth your while to
rent it. You'd better do it soon,
tho, before the landlady sees this
article anu raises the rent.

for students to follow. First an
applicant should learn about the
company of the director before
making the interview. Second it
is well to appear alert and inter

should assume part of the conver
sation burden. He should not leave
it wholly to the interviewer to ask

"Shower. It is easier to keep
track of the soap in the shower
and I won't make any slips."
PAT OX LEY Affiliated.
"I like a tub because no matter
how many caps I put on to take
a shower, my hair always becomes
wet and steamy. I believe the tub
will make a revival. If Bumsteads

will be fun."

"I like showers because they are

I do too. It's kinda hard to de

caressing about the way a shower

Why
go to
college?
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (I. P.) Why
go to college? Educators differ
among themselves in answering
the question one group declaring
the college should train the youth
for a profession, the other group
favoring a general cultural or
"liberal education."
A vast majority of the Univers
ity of Tennessee entering fresh
men side with the group advocat
ing specialization, according to a
survey for the student guidance
program. Of the 574 first year
boys and girls questioned, 422 said
the principal reason they entered
college was to prepare to become
doctors, lawyers, engineers, teach
ers, business men, etc.
The number of students favoring
the cultural "liberal education"
was a poor second in the survey,
with only 58 students listing it as
their major reason for enrolling.
The thfrd largest group 47
freshmen - enrolled in college be
cause they believe college gradu
ates arc given preference over
others in obtaining better jobs.
Thirty-one students no doubt are
true "scholars," since they enrolled
because they "enjoy studying and
like to learn about things."
About two percent entered
mainly because their parents
strongly advised them to do so,
because they found little oppor
tunity of erettine good jobs at pres
ent, or because college life offers
an exee lent chance lor social
training.
