Proving succcaaful, the nual Mimmar scMions have bacn continued since that time. The phenomenal growth of the summer school is evidenced by the fact that the session of 1918 enroll ed leas than 100 students, nhsi sas the current session will sea an «s- •'mated 2200 students. The summer achool faculty baa grown equally as fast as the stu dent body. In 1918 the summer faculty numbered 28, as compared with nearly 200 profaesom taking part ia the 1989 sesakm. The original purpose of summer school was to allow regular col lege students an opportunity to ssake up work which had bean toil ed during the regular session and thos graduate with their class. Now. however, several other field* are covered. Many men and women take this opportunity U) attend col lege durtog summer vacation and get further training in profsaaiosml end ether lines. « A recent development of the sam- ■ter acmten is the presentation of “short unit” coursas. whereby full credit Is given for work concen trated into a three-week period of day long classes. - Dr. C. HI Wkiklsr, director of the A. A M. summer session, has acted in that capacity since 192S; previous to which tkne the director ship was held by the late Dr. J. O. Morgan, formerly Agronomy Department. of the Bible Study Courses Offered First Semester ri , Two courses in B,Me study. Reli gion 307 and Religion 302, will be offered by the Department of Reli gious Education during the first session of summer school. Each course carries three hours of credit and comes under the Sir bool of Arte and Sciences. S The history, so< ,al conditions, and religious development of the Hebrew people included in the Old TevtSment from Joshua through Esther will be covered in Religion 307. * I Religion 302 takes up the study of the establishment of the original church. It will cover the period in the New Testament dealing with the development of Christianity im mediately following Aw death of Jeans to the dose of the first cen tury.''A part of the course will be the formulation of the teachings which now constitute the essential doctrines of Christianity, and the opposing groups confronting the early church. Library and Hospital Announce Hours The Libr ary will be open during the rammer from 8 a. m. until 10 p. m. every due, with the ex cep tkn ef the period from noon Sat urday until 8 a. m. Sunday. The College Hospital will main tain the following sick call hours: 12 to 2, and 4 to 6, at which time <al) who Med treatment and have paid their medical fee% may re ceive such treatment. ! - .1 • - ‘ ‘ • \ ' Us Room Is A Form Of Free Entertainment Among the moat important of tha gratia forms Of entertainment that rammer students may take ad vantage of la the Carnegie Mask Room located on the top “stoop” of the Chshing Memorial Library The musk room, in its present makeup, has exiteed since January, 1987. Previous to that time, how sew, there had already existed for arvaral years a small collection of Dr. T. F. Mayo’s, librarian, which ha asade available to the stud body with his own phonograph. Early ia 1938, at the suggestion of one of the students (8am Grsan- bsrg, who had previously seen one •f the Carnegie seta at Carnegie Tech tn Pittsburgh), Dr. Mayo put in a request to the Carm«ie FOun- dation of America for one of their sate. At first the request was re- fussd on the grounds that the Foundation had hundreds of re- qxeuts and only a tow seta to give. However, after the Camdgie Foun dation learned of the colect.on al ready existing in Carnegie sat was granted to the college. The ast is composed of more thaa a thousand records, 300 books oa ■tusie and muakiana and about 200 scores on the various musical works included in the records. Although the Carnegie Foundation has plac ed • value op the set of 82.800 (ineludiag the victrola end load speaker), this price does not even approach the cost of the entire set at retail value. The records cover the music of all countries, all types of Americanization His Subject At Annual Banquet BY GEO RGB FUESMANN Texas’ dynamic Martin Dies, whs speaker at the annual joint ban quet of the A. A M. Former Stu dents’ Association and the college faculty held in the banquet room of the mess hall last Saturday nooa. Dies’ address, which was daHver- ad before ssore than 400 persons \ who attended * the banquet, was titled ‘“Americanisation, and the Responsibility ef American Edq- . eattonal lastitutions in Fostering It-” As chairman of the Cengres- sfcmal committee op thb MSKp. tion of un-Amertean activities. Dies Wps well equipped to make bis address which was one ef the most outstanding made oa the A. A M. campus this year. Following the bouquet, the For- aser Student* Association held their annual meeting and elsction of officers. C. P„ Dodson, Decatur, was elected president of the Aaao- eiatioa; A. G. Pfaff, Tyler, was elected vice-president; lend JE. E. M c QuJIlauj was reelected secretary- treasurer. Elected as the Associa tion’s representative on the Ath letic Council waa M. J. Miller, Port Worth. Twenty-seven men were elected to the Board of Director* of the Association for next yoar. Five rlaeees of ex-students bald special reunions aa the classes of *99. ’04, ’09. ’14 sad ’29 convened oa the Aggie campus in one of the biggest meetings of former stu- dente in tbs school’s history. While at Collage Ftotion for the annual meeting of their Associa tion. the farmer students attended the Baccalaureate sermon, the Cem- Walton’s rec«-ptionjEid the Pinal Ball on Friday. They also visited the college’s various departments and buildings and attended sev eral rCfcnion functions. Saturday morning before their banquet and annual meeting kft MHMftjjpte M hard use that the records have re ceived, only twenty of the records have been broken which, according t° !>*•• Mayo, is n remarkable. fact. The rules for the musk room are aa follows: 1- During the day the room is 'Tree for all*. That ia, anyone may listen to the musk and stay in the room. and works of all the major sad many of the looser composers. The • set includes complete symphonies, witneased the Final Review. five complete operas and hundreds — of other musical works. COURTING NOTE: . D ia interesting to know that ia nia State College's Dr. Robert G. the more than two years of very Bemreuter has issued a statement ur Xing co-eds to give more atten tion to the student grinds and avoid the good time Chadies. He says the latter will be working for the former ten years ftom now, and, therefore, the grinds will be the best providers. Moral: Hit the hooka, boys, far soipe of the fair ones arp gtriag to take the doctor’s advice! — SUMMER STUDENTS WE WELCOME YOUR BUSINESS L Special Rates by Week or Month $5:50 Meal Ticket for $5.00 ae^M. iLk T ■ f F * TEXAS A. & M.
