"U" CHIt-i>;GUIDANCE~CLINICTO OPERATE. toO, .

eb-op~rat\o\l' between the University ofMinnesota 'and the National Associationfor Menta) Hygiene, financed by theCommonwealth Fuii.d of New York, willbring to Minnesota in October a childguidance clinic which will make possiblethe expert examination of any Minnesotachild that shows tendencies which causeparents to worry.

Prevention of waywardness by dis­covering the tendency and causes in time.and correcting them before they developrather than punishing after they havedeveloped, is the main purpose of theclinic, according to Dr. V. V, Andersonof New York, who conferred with Uni­versity of Minnesota officials recClltly. Theclinic will be established at the Universityof Minnesota if plans now under way arecarried out. Dr. Anderson, together withDr.. · Lawson Lowrey, formerly chief ofstaff of the Psychi2tric hospital at Bos­ton, will be in charge of the clinic, whichwill number nine workers in all. Theclinic will be in Minnesota for a vear.It is one of three supported by the Com­monwealth Fund. Dean M. E. Haggel tyof the college of educ2tion is a memberof the national committee.

Children can be taken before the clinicby parents or guardians, by social work­ers, or by the authorities when thev havecome under public direction, according toDr. Anderson,

"Thl" main purpose of the work .willbe to demonstrate the value oia psychi­atric clinic in adjusting the iridividu21child to the community in which he mustlive," Dr. Anderson said. "The workwill be of gl'~at value to individual chil­dren, also to medical men, psychiatrists.psycholo~ists, and to the growing groupof psychiatric-social workers."

N&'W'STM>i:pM SITE,tS~KD NEAR "U"

A tract of land IJd;nk between Univer­sity dnd Washington avenues in south­east Minneapolis, adjoining the presentathletic field of the University of Minne­sota has been selected as the site for thenew athletic stadium which the universitywill build, beginning this fall. Announce­ment of the site was made by DouglasFiske of the Greater University Corpora­tion. ' The Greater University Corpora­tion conducted the campaign which hasresulted in bringing in gifts of nearly$1,700,000 from students, graduates,frienas, and faculty members of the Uni­versity of Minnesota.

Tht,' auditorium, which is to be a me­morial to the late Cyrus Northrop, is,Iso to be built from the gift funds. Itcan not be started, however, until thepresent electrical engineering building,one of the oldest structures on the cam­pus, has been torn down, and this cannot be done until the new electrical en­gineering building is complete.

Plans for the stadium call for a seat­ing eap,city of at least 40,000 personsand will permit the construction of addi­tions if these prove to be necessary.Final plans wili" be drawn and construc­tion of the building will be supervised bythe department of architecture at theuniversity, Mr. Fiske said. ProfessorsF. M. Mann and J. H. Forsythe of thedepartment of architecture returned re­cently from a trip on which they visiteda number of the famous athletic stadiumsof the country to get ideas for the oneto be built at Minnesota. The stadiumwill be of concrete, trimmed with brickand faced with stone.

The site selected is served by streetcarlines ell three sides. which is an impor­tant consideration in view of the largecrqwds that will be drawn out by theilllIJortant games and meets.

The college of dentistry at the Univer­sity of Minnesota has been given thehighest possible rating, a straight "A"by the Dental Educational Council ofAmerica, which recently has completed asurvey of the colleges of dentistry in theUnited States.

The report of the educational councilhas been forwarded to Dean Alfred Owreof the college of Dentistry and to Presi­dent Coffman.

"The council offers your school its sin­cere congratulations upon the attainmentof an "A" rating and expresses the wishthat no deviation from the policies andactivities that made possible this achieve­ment will occur, unless it be to furtherenhance the record of service to students,the state, and dental education of the Uni­versity of Minnesota," said the council'sstatement., "Certain institutions stand forth in theeducational world because of their power

. to inspire students with the desire forknowledge and with the love of hardwork, ·a150 because of their ability to im­part knowledge effectively and ex,ctly,"the report continued. "The University ofMinnesota col.1ege of dentistry is such anin 'uti<>~."... s on which the college of den-

Thereis little goitre in Ma~ne or Connecticut.

Even in goiterous regions, those whoeat much roughage and drink milk arefar less likely to have goitre, Dr.McClendon says, than those who donot.

Persons who drink Lake Superiorwater, or water having a similar anal­ysis, would require 2000 years to ac­qu're the amount of iodine found in anormal human tyroid, Dr. McClendonpoin ts out. There are approximately20 milligrams of iodine in the normalthyroid. He gives this as proof thatthe iodine in the human body must begotten from food as well as fromwater.

"We have found," he says, "that aman 23 years of age, living in Minne­apol's, a moderatdy goiterous region,consumed .057 milligrams of iodine inthree days, on a normal diet, and lost.021 milligrams by normal secret'ons inthe same time.

DO COLLEGE MENLIKE WORKS OF ART?

New Exhibit Room at UniversityPlanned to Help Appreciaticn

How often does the average college oruniversity student pay any attention tofine paintings and other works of art?

While he gives no direct answer, Prof.S. Chatwood Burton, who directs classesin the fine arts at the University of Min­nesota, asserts that if a student gave afew moments twice a year to the seriousinspection of works of art it would bea gain over the present situation.

He hopes to bring about at least thismuch change at the University of Min­nesota, which for the first time in itshistory now has a campus art centerwhich will be devoted to loan exhibitionsof painting, drawing, etching, and sculp­ture, and to the display of art work bystudents and members of the facultv.

Assignment of a room in the Minne­sota Union by the Union board of gov­ernors provides the needed space, whereit is hoped eventually to build up throughgifts the nucleus of a campus art col­lection.

Provision for the exhibition center isthe most important forward step in fos­tering art interest and knowledge thathas ever been taken at the university inthe opinion of Prof. Burton.

Capper-Volstead act places a definitecheck on combinations when it providesthat they shall not 'unduly enhance theprice of farm products.'''

An important service which the ar­ticle renders is to dispel the illusion thatthe various federal and state acts givingspecial authorization for co-operative or­ganizations are in the nature of viciousclass legislation. Professor Ballantynebelieves it can not be proved that theseacts permit harmful combinations in re­straint of trade.

The article declares that the exclusivemarketing contracts that are coming into'common use in Minnesota and otherstates are likely to be upheld as not beingan undue restraint of trade in spite ofthe fact that earlier court decisions inIowa and Colorado pointed in the con­trary direction. The right to use injunc­tions to prevent threatened breach ofsuch contracts by sales to outsiders andthe remedy of specific performance havealso been recognized in a number of c:lses'·

One of the interesting discussions inthe article treats of whether or not anexclusive crop contract of the purchaseand sale type rally does transfer titleto the g-rower's product to the associa­tion. G. C. Henderson in a recent ar­ticle in the Columbia Law Review hasargued that it does not, that in realitythe or~anization is merely holding it intrust for the growers, and that the trans­fer of title is merely a form 0 agencyto aid the organization in making sales.The Minnesota nrofessor disagrees wiihthis theory. saying that tht proceeds ofthe sale of the crops actually are cor­poration assets. which the organizationcan use in building up reserves, payingoff debts. or any other reasonable pur­pos eprovided by the by-laws.

Mercy for Flowers Asked By Roberts

Unless residents of Minnesota and vis­iting tourists realize more fully the needfor protecting wild flowers and pickingvery carefully the ones that they take,future citizens may have to go to thestate parks to see the spring flowers forthey can find them nowhere else, Dr.Thomas S. Roberts of the ZoologicalMuseum predicted at a recent meetingof the Minnesota section, Wild FlowerPreservation society.

The ladyslipper, which is the Minne­sota state flower, and even some of thevarieties once quite common, are disap­pearing from Minnesota woods andprairies due to the ravages of carelessflower gatherers, Dr. Roberts said.

He pleaded for attention to the situa­tion and asked ;that propaganda bespread concerning the dangers of pullingflowers up by the roots, crushing thestems or plants in gathering, or makinga clean sweep of all the wild flowers ofa certain variety found in a woods orprairie area.

the University of Minnesota co-operateswith Minnesota newspapers in trainingyoung men for their staffs was describedto members of the Northern MinnesotaEditorial Association at their Wadenameeting by R. R. Barlow, head of thedepartment. The number of requestsfrom editors for young men with news­paper training in college has increasedeach year since 1921, Mr. Barlow told theeditors. He said it was his intention topay special regard to the training ofworkers for the country press as soon asan enlarged staff becomes possible in hisdepartment.

One of the services he hopes to de­velop at Minnesota, he said, is the pub­lication of a series of bulletins dealingwith business and circulation problemsof the country editor. Departments ofjournalism at a number of other \l11iver­sities have already entered this field ofactivity successfully, he pointed out.

Mr. Barlow's subject was "How Cubsare trained at the University of Minne­sota: What the university, through itsdepartment .of journalism, might do forthe state editors'."

Approximately 1500 students were vac­cinated during the fall quarter and 3,000

"In spite of the use of curative anti­toxin for the past fifteen years, diph­theria still causes more deaths than anyother contagious disease in the temperatezone," the report said.

"TINIEST" WAVE

Rifle Team Wins All Meets

True to western traditions, the Uni­versity of Minnesota rifle team has out­shot five of the largest universities of thecountry in recent intercollegiate matches.Each team shoots at home and the scores,carefully checked, are compared. Min­nesota marksmen have outshot Cornell,the Michigan Aggies, University ofMichigan, Ohio State University, and

so l"ebruary 14, the nearest Thursaay tothe correct date, was chosen for the cele­bration.

President L. D. Coffman, who organ­ized the new Charter Day plan, spokebriefly at the opening of the exercises.He was followed by President-emeritusW. W. Folwell, who came to the uni­versity in 186g. Prof. Henry F. Nach­trieb, with a service record of 39 years,introduced all who were on the platform.At the close of the service groups 0 fwomen students dressed in the costumesof the seventies, eighties, nineties, and ofthe twentieth century marched across theplatform.

One of the veterans honored came inthe sixties, three in the seventies, andmost of them in the eighties, with a fewwho began their terms of service between1890 and 1894, the last year that wouldbring them within the requirements.

President Coffman hopes that the newway of marking Charter Day will be suc­cessful enough to warrant continuing ityear after year.

SENIORS WILL SHOWFRESHMEN THE ROPES

Seniors at the University of :Minnesotahave established a new advisory councilwhose members will serve as big brothersto freshmen students, especially thosewho come from outside the twin citiesand are less familiar with their sur­roundings than the newcomers from Min­neapolis and St. Paul. Don Neuman.senior law student, has been appointedgeneral chairman and has announcedthat a number of juniors will be admit­ted to the organization at once as theyare the men who will be seniors next fallwhen the m,xt large group of freshmenreaches the campus.

The work of the senior organizationwill he along the lines of the successfulhig brother groups at other universitiesacrording to Alfred B. Greene, footballmanager, who called the first meeting.

The seniors will show new students"the ropes" around the campus and cityand also will give them sound advice onthe way to get the most out of their col­lege years.

termg these colleges around the state, at­tendance at the University of Minnesotawould be reduced, he said, the reason be­ing- that the junior colleges themselveswould send increasing numbers to takethe advanced work at the state university,

"Each local junior college will becomea center of stimulation for higher educa­tion," the president said, "Students whoattend the university in the upper classeswill require more laboratory facilities,more equipment, more technical work ofevery kind. The expense to the state,even in case the state refuses to subsidizethe jun ior colleges, will be increased be­cause of the increase in students in theuniversity."

The assumption that freshman studentsare too young to he away from home issometimes heard, but as a matter of factstudents in freshman classes today areolder than any group of students enter­ing college anywhere ever were in thehistory of civilization, he declared.

"I f it was possible for the parents ofthe present generation to be freshmen incolleges away from home during theiryouth, it is far more possible for studentsof the present generation to be freshmenin colleges away from home, for they areolder than their parents were when theywent to college. I f the public is willingto pay for more higher education to' becarried on in junior colleges, then thereare many arguments that may be ad­vanced in favor of junior colleges; butif the public is not willing to be taxedmore heavily than it is taxed at the pres­ent time for higher education, such argu­ments fall by the way."

DR. NORRIS TO WRITEON WOMEN'S HEALTH

Beginning with its next issue, the Uni­versity of Minnesota News Service willfurnish to Minnesota weeklies a series ofarticles on the ways in which women canmaintain or improve their health throughphysical exercise.

These articles will be wr'tten especiallyfor Minnesota newspapers by Dr. J. AnnaNorris, head of the department of phy­sical education for women at the uni­versity. In that capacity Dr. Norris hasoversight of all physical training formore than 4,000 women students at theinstitution,

Dr. Norris is a nationally recognizedexpert on physical education for women.Although other institutions have tried toobtain her services she has remained atMinnesota because of her belief that shecan be of greater service here. She hasnow promised to assume the additionalburden of writing without pay for theMinnesota press.

DR. NORRIS CALLS INTELLIGENT SHOE BUYINGKEYSTONE TO FOOT COMFORT

By Dr. J. Anna Norris

(Head· of the departmel1t of physical education for women at the Ulliversityof M illnesota)

There are five simple rules for the girl or woman who would avoid foottrouble due to wrong shoes. These rules should be borne in mind whenever I

she enters a store to buy footwear. Briefly, they are: IDemand length three quarters of an inch beyond the foot. !

Demand width which permits the whole foot to rest on the sole of the shoe. iGet a low heel as broad as the heel of the foot. .Select shoes with a closely-fitting heel counter.Make sure that the heel is flexible, with no'steel in the shank.

When a woman begins to suspect either her feet or her shoes, probably thefirst thing she should do is to find out hy a simple test whether anything iswrong or not. Anybody can conduct a simple exp~riment to test whether thefeet have maintained their original strong and correct line. Sit or stand withthe feet close together, the inner edges touching. Notice whether the greattoes touch each other. If they are turned apart from each other, send downa command to them to meet. If thevwill not do so, it shows that therrmuscles are weak and you have lostcontrol of them. You can usually re­gain control by correcting their 'posi­tion with your hand and gradually re­establishing the disused nerve pathsbetween brain and muscle.

Another test is to trace an outline ofthe foot on paper while standing on it,and then fitting the shoe over the out­line and tracing the shoe outline witha pencil of a different color. If theshoe outline covers the foot outline,the shoe is probably a good one. Ifthe toe outline protrudes beyond theshoe outline, you can draw your ownconc1us~on.

The reason why it is so hard to findshoes that are good for the feet isbecause the feet are such complicatedstructnres. They are made up of manybones fitted to one another in such away as to form two arches. one longi­tndinal and one transverse. Thesearches are im.portant, for on them de-

'Minnesota "produces one of the bestof the law reviews and is not behind theeastern states. at any rate in legal learn­ing" according to an article in TheSolicitor's Journal, of London England.discussing the appointment of Frank B.Ke1l0gg as American ambassador toGreat Britain. The Minnesota LawReview is published at the University ofMinnesota. "The Times correspondentspeaks of Mr. Ke1l0gg as the 'outwardand visible sign of the spiritual mergin"of the east and west,' says the Solicitor'sJournal," but we imagine that Minnesota.which produces on of the best of the lawreviews. is not beh ind the eastern states,at any rate in legal learning."

IN TOTAL STUData From All Universities Shows Ex­

act Comparative Ranking

The University of Minnesota ranksfi fth in number of students among a1lAmerican institutions of higher educa­tion and sixth when resident studentstaking part-time work are included. Thisis the statement in a table compiled fromregistration statistics of a1l Americanco1leges and: universities by Dr. RaymondWalters of Swarthmore College, pub­lished in "School and Society."

Minnesota is shown by the report tohave 8331 regular fu1l-time students and12322 'students if those who are residentbu'! attend only part of the time areincluded.

The dental school at Minnesota is fifthin student enrollment among similarinstitutions of the country. while themedical school is fourth. only those atMichigan, Pennsylvania and Harvardhaving larger registrations_ There are474 medical and 434 dental students atthe University of Minnesota.

Institutions that outrank Minnesota inthe number of their regular fu1l-timestudents are the University of California,with 13.276; Columbia University. with11,530; University of Illinois. with 9.353;and the University of Michigan. with8,906. The five institution larger thanMinnesota when part-time resident stu­dents are included are: Columbia. with28.861; California, with 23,139, C01legeof the City of New York. with 17.055;University of Pennsylvania. with 14,632;and New York University. with 14,385.

In the number of women students inc01lege of libertl arts, Minnesota ranksninth. being surpassed by Columbia.Illinois, Indiana. Iowa Michigan, Texas.Washington. and Wisconsin.

wrong or not. Anybody can cond'nct a simple exp~riment to test whether thefeet have maintained their original strong and correct line. Sit or stand withthe feet close together, the inner edges touching. Notice whether the greattoes touch each other. If they are turned apart from each other, send downa command to them to meet. If they . .. _wi1l not do so, it shows that theirmuscles are weak and you have lostcontrol of them. You can usua1ly re­gain control by correcting their posi­tion with your hand and gradua1ly re­establishing the disused nerve pathsbetween brain and muscle.

Another test is to trace an outline ofthe foot on paper while standing on it,and then fitting the shoe over the out­line and tracing the shoe outline witha pencil of a different color. If theshoe outline covers the foot outline,the shoe is probably a good one. Ifthe toe outline protrudes beyond theshoe outline, you can draw your ownconclus!on.

The reason why it is so hard to findshoes that are good for the feet isbecause the feet are such complicatedstructures. They are made up of manybones fitted to one another in such away as to form two arches. one longi­tudinal and one transverse. Thesearches are important, for on them de­pend the sp'ring and elasticity of thegait and the endurance of the indi­vidual f@r walking and standing.

What has the footwear to do withthe preservation or destruction of thearches? Let us examine them. Theirsupport depends en tirely on the actionof certain muscles. One set is entirelyin the sale of the foot and passesforward from the heel to be attachedby individual tendons to the bones ofthe toes. When it contracts it actslike the string of a bow, while thearch is like the bow itself, and iscurved upward to its proper position.

As everyone knows, the only way tokeep a muscle strong is to give it ex­ercise. It might be supposed that themuscles of ,the foot, presumably usedfor hours a day in walking, would benatura1ly maintained in strength. Butare they rea1ly used?

If we examine a baby's foot, we getcertain important information. Wefind that it is longest, not in its centerline, but in the line passing from theinner side of the heel to the inner sideof the great toe joint and out throughthe great toe. Not only does the greattoe refuse to turn toward the center ofthe foot, but it may even reach side­ways toward the other foot. and thetoes are in active motion a great dealof the time.

This straight inner line of the foot

For them, the only infor­mation is what is obtained from contactwith neighbors; the news is confined tothe gossip which is passed from door todoor.

These people are not confined to onestate nor one section of the UnitedStates. If we d onot provide means bywhich such people may enrich their livesand then bring these opportunities totheir attention, they suffer an inestimableloss and their children also must suffer.The community, thE" state, and the nationare affected by the lack of Clllightelllllentand breadth of vision.

Dr. Emmons bases his theory of thelocation of metals on their solubility inthe hot water in which they originallygushed from the earth in solution" fol­lowing faults in the rock to the surface.The least soluble metal, tin, would bedeposited first and would be found at thehottom of the vein. Mercury, ,remain­ing longest in solution, wOllld be foundat the top.

Sixteen steps are listed in the Emmonsvein from top to bottom as follows:Barren, mercury, antimony, gold, silver"barren, silver, lead, zinc, copper. copper,gold, bismuth, arsenic tungsten, tin, bar­ren.

The series outward from the batholithor mass of intrusive rock from whichthe metals were originally derived is inthe reverse of the order of the seriesdownward. This is because the batholithcomes to a peak, then slopes away, mak­ing the veins at some distance from thecenter longer from top to bottom withthe result that they reach metals higherin the scale than can the short veins.

STUDENTS REVIVECIRCUS TRADITION

An old-time tradition at the Universityof Minnesota, the annual student circus,will be reviYed this year for the first timesillce 1913. The circus performances willbe on the nights of :May 16 and 17 inthe university armory.

Search for performers and workers inthe circus has brought to light interest"ing facts concerning the summer occnpa­tions of sel f-supporting students. Be­tween six and ten stndents at Minnesotaearn their way by acting as "barkers"and megaphone maulers during the sum­mer with chautauquas and travelingshows. There are several Minnesota stu­dents who can do aerial and tumblingwork of professional caliber. One coachis a skater who has appeared before thou­sands and has also been a performer inliving statues.

The student body also includes a num­ber of professional ticket takers and atleast one strong-man of professional cali­ber. These will be among the "artists" andworkers when the circus performancescome off.

Profits from the circus will be used topay for some permanent improvement asa memorial. Profits this year will prob­ably go for a new campus flagstaff.There are on the compus at present anumber of memorial gifts that werefinanced from the proceeds of formercircuses. The senior class has assumeddirection of the show through a com­mittee headed by Mark Severance of thelaw school.

MAIL STUDY FILLSBIG PUBLIC NEED

I f the public could get over the ideathat university instruction by correspond­ence is too highbrow for the averageman, numbers enrolled in extensioncourses by mail would be doubled ortrebled in a short time, according to W.S. Bittner of Indianapolis, Ind., whospoke at the National Conference onHome Education at the University ofMinnesota May 7.

He called "teaching by mail" the bestknown device of university extension.

"It is almost literally true that almostanyone who can read and write maystudy by mail under a university in­structor," Mr. Bittner said.

1500 BRAINS THROBIN NEW "u" LIBRARY

Task of Moving 375,000 Books andPamphlets Has Been Completed

N early 1500 students can sit andstudy at one time in the various read­ing rooms of the University of Minne­sota's new library, as compared withonly 350 whom the old library coulclaccommodate at once. The generalreading room alone will hold 420 stu­dents, more than could study in allot the old library. Two hundred andfifty can read in the room for reservedbooks, 220 in the scientific readingroom and 200 in the periodical readingroom, In addition to these there area number of other places to accom­modate students at work.

The task of moving the library, con­sisting of about 300,000 items in activecirculation and bptween SO,ooo and 75,­000 inactive numbers, has heen com­pleted.

F. K. Walter, University librarian,points out that by bringing togethermany departmental libraries, formerlyscattered through var:ous buildings,the new library has materially en­larged classroom facilities on thecampus. Principal relief comes fromthe abandonment of the old librarybuilding, which is being refitted forclassrooms and lecture halls.

The new librarv faces the CampusMall, which is to become the centerof the University as it develops underthe comprehensive buildinR program.Its location is much more nearly cen­tral than was that of the old library.

her 27. Students, except th~se in thegraduate school, who attencled Minne­sota last year must have completedregistration and paicl fees by Septem­ber 18.

President L. D. Coffman, who hasbeen spending the summer at his cot­tage on Battle Lake, near DetroitMinn., will return to his office Sep:tember 15, and faculty members whohave been on vacation or have beenteaching at the summer sessions ofother institutions will begin returningat about that time.

A considerable saving to students inthe College of Agriculture, Universityof Minnesota, has been effected by arecent ruling granting free use of theintercampus trolley cars to all stu­dents and faculty members who haveclasses on both the Main Campus andat University Farm. As students atthe Farm are expected to attend con­vocations on the Main Campus, theycome under the ruling whether theyare enrolled in Main Campus classesornot.

A course in the geography of Min­nesota will be offered by the Univer­sity of Minnesota this fall as one ofthe advanced courses in the field ofgeography, Professor Darrell H. Davishas announced. The geography staffwill be enlarged by the appointmentof Dr. Richarel Hartshorne, who re­ceived his Ph.D. last spring from theUniversity of Chicago. Dr. Harts­horne has had both teaching and com­mercial experience in geography.

Although the teaching of geographywas resumed only last fall at the U ni­versity, the response in student inter­est has been so large that aeldit;on ofa new teacher was necessary. Amongthe positions that Dr. Hartshorne hasheld was that of investigator of ripa­rian lanels along the Chicago riverwith a view to increasing their indus­trial and commercial usefulness.

Six c.ourses ;n geography are nowoffered at Minnesota as f0110ws: In­troduction to geography; geography incommercial production; trade routesand trade centers; geography of NorthAmerica; geography of Minnesota. andclimatology.

SLIGHT DROP FOUNDIN BOOKS DRAWN

Research Worker in Psychology SaysTwisted Expressions Are Put On

The movie villain who draws down thecorner of his mouth as he has at thepink cheeked hero is all wrong as far ascorrect registering of emotion is con­cerned. T his is the deduction of CarneyLandis, research worker in psychologyat the University of Minnesota. Lastyear Mr. Landis photographed more than100 different individuals at moments whenthey were being subj ected to emotionalstress, but in not one case was the ex­pression found to be of the distorted or"asymmetrical" type.

Neither is the horror felt by the victimof the curly-mouthed villain displayedby undue facial distortion, this researcherfound. In fact, he would consign to therealm of fiction all the widly exaggeratedexpressions which the movie public, andbefore it, the following of melcdrama hasbeen accustomed to associate with vio­lpnt hatred, fear, greed, anger, and thelike.

Mr. Landis believes that many peoplepull their faces into queer shapes becausethey have learned to think of these ex­pressions as registering the things theyfeel. But the expressions are "social,"the result of example and thought, hebelieves. They are not, in any case, thenatural expressions called up by emo­tions if the pictures he has taken may beconsidered accurate data.

"The decrease is explained in part bythe wider use of text books and sourcebooks in several courses and by increaseduse of several of the departmental li­braries, which report a circulation of39,1l5," the report said. "The new orien­tation reading room alone had a circula­tion of 8,175 which, under ordinary cir­cumstances, would have been added tothe general statistics.

GIRLS SHOWN FAULTSIN OWN POSTURES

Apparatus in Women's Gvm. CalledBig Helo To Correcticn

University of Minnesota girls now see Ithemselves exactly as they are when they itake their physical examinations on entpr­inn- i" the fall. A new instrument forexactly recording posture is u,ed, whichmoves a white 'silh-we'te against a black'background, and enables the stndQnt to!see clearly the posture defects which are.revealed. '

Dr. Anlla Norris, director of physical I

edncati ...." for women. says the "si1Innet­tograph" has two great advantages overthe method in use in the department be­fore. It is almast instantaneous, therebye'im;natinf! chances for swayin~ such as,are invited by a long period of standing,while a silhclUette is trace::l. It eliminatesalso the chances for error that go witha traci"g process.

Until this year a "shadClwgra~h" hadt-een in use by the department. The stu­dent stood close to a thin paper screenon whcih her shad'lw was thrown by abright light beyond her. The examinertraced the shadow en a glass plate againstwhich the paper screen was placed.

Silh'1uettes are now develoopd andplaced in the stl'dents h?ods within twominntes. After the girls have taken cor­rectional gymnastics for a long enou"hperiod to bring some results, new sil­houettes are made, which can be com­pared with the old ones.

The main social event of Homecomingwill be the undergraduate-alumni dancethe night of November I in the Minne­sota Union, men's campus headquarters.Clarence Kleffman has been appointedchairman of the dance committee.

The usual Homecoming parade witl beconducted by the students, with fancilydecorated floats and motorcars, bands,stunts, and fun. Fraternity and sororityhouses are already planning decorationsfor the annual contest.

Ski-U-Mah, the undergraduate maga­zine, has been given the task of gettingout a special issue in honor of Homecom­ing-. A thirty-two page rotogravure sec­tion is being considered as one of thefeatures of this issue.

ignore the circumstance that loss in thenumber of poorly educated and unin­spired practinners would constitute arelative g-ain for the profession in char­acter, and for the public in quality oforal health service. They fail to appre­ciate the fact that uniform geographic(Iistribution of dentists is unattainableunder any normal social and economic~irc11mstances. and that even over-pro­duction would not enforce such distribu­tion, but would develop congestion incenters of population. In 1900 the num­ber "f dentists for ertch ICO,000 of totalpopulation was 37; in 1910 the numberW;>5 4.1; in 1920 it was 53. This steadyo-ain in numher and percentaQ"e ad den­tists was made on an inclined plane ofrequirements in both the preliminary ardprnfessional phases of dental traininl:(."

To this end he recommended increasingthe number of nre-professional years inthe medical curriculum from one to two.

"Pre-medical and pre-dental curriculacould be made practically identical" hecontinued. "Pre-medical work and pre­dental work in the colleges could be morenconomically organized in one curriculumthan in two.

"for both professions are agencies fo;health service and cannnt perform that'ervice faithfully nn any other conditionsthan those of earnest and effective co­·)peration."

"The experience which we have beenhaving with students who have grad­uated from high schools but who havefailed to meet al1 the entrance require­ments of the institution and who later,after having fulfil1ed these requirements,are admitted to the University, leads usto believe that wider liberality in thisrespect may be permitted.

VETERANS ARE SMARTSAYS PRESIDENT

The fact that "war specials" in theUniversity of Minnesota, form~r soldierssupported by the Veterans' Bureau, havedone work that averaged a little betterthan that done by stu·lents comingthrough the usual channels, has ledPresident L. D. Coffman to declare thatmaturity, experience and in:ell ctualalertness are in many inst1nces a satis­factory substitute for much of the pre­lilT'inary train ing.

"When artifi,cial limitations are set upas conditions for entrance," he said re­cently, "they frequently exclude personsfrom college or from high school whowould he able to carry the work with ahigh degree of credit to th -mselves.Entrance requirements have served adoub'e fun('tion, insuring sufficienttraining in fundamentals and acting asan p'iminating device, but a rigid ad­ministration of them without discretionnecessarily leads to the elimination ofmany desirable candidates for highereducation. Many univenities, amongthem the University of Minnesota, haveadmitted as special stu-.1ents th ~se whodid not fulfill all tre entrance require­ments. but who, ('n account of theirmaturity and exnerien-e, seemed capableof doing university work.

"'\Then entrance requirem~nts werefirst set up. the college apnealed to stu­dents of only one type of min~. Nowstudents of every possible vari~ty ofmind 11"0 to co]1ege. . . .

The total increase inthe number of military science student,in advanced courses is from 174 last fallto 229 this year. All the rest of the2308 are in the elementary drill coursewhich is reuired of all freshmen whoare physically capable of doing the work.

Besides the 71 students who are begin­ning advanced infantry work there areeight students in second year advancedinfantry work, 79 in all. Advanced stu­dents in the coast artillery corps number38 as against 33 a year ago, and in thes;gnal corps, 32 against 24. Medicalcorps students have decreased in numberin the advanced years from 34 to 26 anddental students from 54 to 44.

"U" Will Seek Confeence Meet

Thanks to the new stadium, Minnesotamay get the Western Conference trackmeet next spring for the first time since19IO, IS years ago. If the 1925 confer­ence meet comes to Minnesota it is ex­pected to be the finest stimulus to trackathletics ever experienced in the N orth­west. Minnesota has deveolped topnotchperformers in a number of individualtrack and field events, but has never yetproduced a really exceptional track tcamwith balanced performances in a ma­jority of the principal events. ShermanW. Finger, the Gophers' new trackcoach, will attend a meeting of coachesearly this month. He hopes to persuadeother institutions that it is Minnesota'sturn after so long an interval. Wiscon­sin and Iowa probably will support Fin­ger's request.

Erection of a nurses' home, completionof several main buildings, and enlarge­ment of existing University hospital fa­cilities to 600 beds, exclusive of the Min­neapolis hospital, are elements contem­plated in the development.

PresicJent L. D. Coffman and Dean E.P. Lyon believe that the plans. if carriedout, will complete t~e Medical School asfar as need be conSIdered for fifty years.

This is the fourth considerab'e gift theMinnesota Medical School has receivedin the past two years and the fifth if the$2000,000 Mayo Foundation for gradu­at~ study, given some years earlier, beincluded. It has received a gift of morethan $1,000,000 from W. H. Eustis fordevelopment of a p~diatric hospital, themoney to be paid in in the course of thenext three years, gifts for a cancer hos­pital and fo ra hospital devoted chieflyto opthalmology and oto-Iaryngology,both of the latter being under construc­tion.

The funds from the General EducationBoard will be assured if the Universityof Minnesota obtains the remainder eitherby direct appropriations or gifts, or ifgifts and appropriations for payment ata future time are promised.

Winter Quarter Will Open Jan. 5

University of Minnesota students, fol­lowing a two weeks md-winter vacation.will return to their studies on January 5.the first day of the wint2r quarter. Withlong evenings. cold weather outdoors.and few of the distractions of the falland spring terms. the winter quarter of­fers by all odds the best opportunitiesfor study, whether at a univerSIty or ahigh school. Basketball, hockey, andpledging by fraternities are the winterseason diversions. Fraternity pledgingwas deferred this year until after theclose of the fall quarter so that freshmenmen might become accustomed to theirnew surroundings be fore they began togive any time to wcial organizationsThe plan has been adopted by vote ofthe Interfraternity Council. A numberof interesting lecture series and convoca­tion addresses have been arranged for tl'ewinter quarter.

It will be used for experi­mental purposes and station to stationcommunication in any case. Some broad­casting may be done if an arrangementcan be made such that the campus stationwill not interfere with WCCO.

Transfer of the equipment to the university places a high power station in thehands of the experts who did the firstbroadcasting in the Northwest.

The station will also be used by stu­dents in the sig-nal corps branch of the'military department.

Minnesota Educators Help in Survey

Dr. F. J. Kelly, dean of administrationat the University of Minnesota, Dean E.P. Lyon and Prof. Frank Scott of theMedical School are three of a list ofleading American educators who havebeen invited by Northwestern Universityto take part in an "educational inventory"of that institution. From t;me to timethese teachers will visit Northwesternand serve as "auditors" in various col­legiate activities, with a view to report­ing on the effectiveness with which theyare arranged or conducted. Others whowill take part represent large educationalinstitutions, east and west, professionalsocieties, and prominent foundations.

Medical Researcher Wins Medal

Prof. E. C. Kendall, who has chargeof the chemical division of the MayoFoundation for graduate study and re­search in medicine, has been given theChandler medal, awarded annually byColumbia University, for services toscience. Dr. Kendall won the medal forisolating the active constituent of thethyroid. He has been associated withthe Mayo Foundation and the Mayoclinic since 191I. The Mayo Foundationis an invested principal of more than$2.000.000, given to the University ofMinnesota by the Drs. C. H. and W.
