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

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

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

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
