new board will be self-perpetuating. T h a t is, m e m bers of the o u t g o i n g board will elect their successors, following the e x a m p l e of all other College
publications. T h e a d v a n t a g e s of this are fairly o b vious, chief a m o n g them being that the best qualified people select successors whose work is a guarantee of the next s e a r ' s success.
T h e board will also allow s o p h o m o r e s and j u n i o r s
to try o u t . T h i s too, is an u n q u e s t i o n e d improve

Economic conditions in France and
the British Isles give every indication of prosperity, Dr. William H.
Metzler, dean of the College, declared
Upon his return from a summer tour
of those countries.
Dr. Metzler spent about
two
months traveling through England,
Ireland, Wales, Scotland, and France,
his objective being not to study anything, hut simply to take in the beauties of nature and art. He lauded in
London and proceeded from that
city to Chester, a town near the birthplace of Dr. T. Frederick II. Cantllyn of Albany, who is head of the
College music department. He then
journeyed southward into
Wales
and crossed to Dublin.
Political
conditions were quiet here, he noticed, as they were in Belfast to the
north. Belfast, he found, was one
of the most beautiful cities in Ireland
and famous for its linen manufactures. He again crossed to England,
landing at Stranraer and proceeding
into the Burns' country, visiting Ayr
and other places made famous by
Robert Burns, the "ploughman poet."
The university buildings at Glasgow
are very beautiful and modeled after
the English style of architecture, Dr.
Metzler noticed. A debate team from
this Old World university had met a
team from Dr. Metzlcr's college during the past year. He sailed up Loch
Lomond and crossed the Trossachs
and other points along the Scottish
border famous in the novels and
poetry of Sir Waller Scott.
and arrived in Paris. Dr. Metzler
and his party enjoyed motor trips to
Mont Blanc and other peaks in the
Alps.
Foreign drivers arc much
more careful than the average American motorist, he declared, pointing
out the dangerous mountain roads
where one foot too much to the side
would have plunged the entire party
two thousand feet in a few seconds.
H e then journeyed along the southern
border of France along the Mediterranean sea, visiting Monte Carlo,
Nice, and Marseilles. The oldest ex-

T h e registration of students in the
1931 exceeded the enrollment in regular session by approximately two
hundred, according to Dr. Milton G.
Nelson, director of the summer session. The total number enrolled was
thirteen hundred and forty-seven including one hundred and thirty-eight
Slate college undergraduates.
Dr. Nelson says of the increase:
"The influx this summer is typical
of the trend in educational circles today. Year by year, education is becoming more and more professional.
Stale certification standards are increasing, boards of education are urging their teachers to 'brush up professionally', and the teachers themselves are feeling the need for modern
training in the methods and content of
the subjects they are teaching. In increasing numbers, teachers of experience are being urged to attend
summer school at least every fourth
or fifth summer."
