THE MICRGCAN DAIL~Y NEW ASHLAND SCHOOL TO OPEN ON JULY 30 Following close upon the announce- ment of the Milassachusetts Institute of Technology of a course in humanics, or hmran problems, comes news from Grand Rapids of an even more startl- ing educational innovation. On July 30 the Ashland school for adult ed- ucation will open its, doors in the Michigan town . The new school, although the suc- cessor of one that functioned in Grand Rapids about fifty years ago, intends to absolutely adhere to the princi- pIes of the "new education." The following ,.novel statement of the school's plan has recently been issu- ed: "the school will accept as stu- dents high school and college grad- uates who have been disillusioned and baffled by a few years' contact with actual life, and mentally alert young men and women who are trying to find themselves and the meaning of life." And the curriculum is even more of a departure from accepted stand- ards than is the student body. Per- plexities and problems of life, not the usual academic standards, will be the basis for the school's courses. At- tempts will be made to get at per- sonal problems and circumstances as is revealed in the fact that only stu- dents who have "faced life outside the schoolroom for at least two years" will be admitted. The faculty will be required to ful- fill only two qualifications: (1) That they keep ilent with regard to any specialized knowledge they may pos- sess, until such time as their students or colleagues may request them to NOTICE Openings for a few more members in the STAR TOUR have occurred.

KUEBLER A STEAMSHI1P AGENCY 601 E. Huron St. Ann Arbor MICHIGAN NIGHT RADIO PROGRAMS ARE AVAILABLE IN BOOKLET FORM More than 2,100 copies of a booklet containing the radio talks given dur- ing the past year on the regular Michigan Night programs through the .Detroit News station, WWJ, have been placed in the mails, it was announced yesterday by Prof. Waldo M. Aboot, of the rhetoric department, program director. The bulletins, containing the full texts of all the talks given over the radio by members of the University faculties, are being sent to all of the leading f'niversities and colleges of this country, as well as to those out- siders who have requested copies. The 1927-28 series, which was com- prised of 15 regular programs and a special one for the annual state high school music contest, attracted far. greater interest than ever before," said Professor Abbot. "In the first year of the progranis several huin- dred replies were received while last year, the second year of the contest, the total number of replies reached approximately 1,000." Talks on the 1927-28 series have been 4heard in cities located in 19 states, varying from, Los Angelet Cal. to West Yynn, Mass., a recent check-up revealed. "Letters received during the current season have shown that the idea that station WWJ is merely a local station serving the im- mediate neighborhood of the Great Lakes, is entirely erroneous," he con- tinued. "While it is true the majority speak, and (2) that they piesent their subjects in an interesting manner or get out. And adding insult to injury, they will get no salaries, and will be expected to share costs of operation with the students! . of the letters requesting copies of the bulletin were received from Michigan, Ohio, and Ontario, Canada, numerous communications have been received from listeners from distant parts of the country." The radio bulletin is published in order that people who have mirsed one or more programs will be able to have a copy of the talks which they missed, and that those people inter- ested in the programs may have a re- cord of the whole series. Talks by members of the faculties of eight of the schools and colleges on the campus are contained in the book- let, in addition to talks by members of the University administration and members of the athletic board. The bulletin contains, as a foreword, t. note of appreciation to The Detroit News, which organization generously donated its broadcasting facilities and ! paid the expense of transmitting the Michigan Night programs from Ihe Ann Arbor campus in order that ItI radio audience might hear the spec- ialists of the state institution speak upon educational topics. A note of appreciation for the mus- ical portion of the programs is also contained in the pamphlet, it being through the cooperation of the School of Music that the music was made possible. Anyone interested in receiving copy of the programs of the 1!)27-2C: eries may secure one by seeing Pro- fessor Abbot. Max Mason Indicts Fraternity Brains That fraternities have achieved the pinnacle in fellowship and sportsman- ship, but that they have failed to make for real college education was the indictment made against college fraternities by Max Mason, president of the University of Chicago, in his farewell address before the Fratern- ity club at Chicago. "The fraternity does not foster scholarship, but regards the serious student who applies himself to real study as a "nut ready for the psycho- pathetic hospital,' " went on Presi- (lent Mason. "I had to get out of the circle of the American college fraternity to dis- cover how much fun it is to really think. "Fraternities are the horm-es of intel- lectual poverty as they are consti- tute(l todlwy. The fraternities have made good scouts of students, but they have not done all they can do in the last game of ability to further things worth while." O4SPEEDY" f TODAY WED.
