PAGE SIX THE -MICHIGAN DAILY SATURDAY, MAY 19, 1934 Adult Institute Called Success, By Henderson Bodies Of Lightship Crash Victims Brought Ashore Enrollment Figures 25 Percent Rise Last Year Show Over Termed by Dr. W. D. Henderson, di- rector of the Extension Division as. one of the most successful institutes ever held, the Institute of Adult Edu- cation sponsored jointly by the Exten- sion Division and the State Federa- tion of Women's Clubs, concluded its five day session yesterday. "The success of the institute," Dr. Henderson said, lies in the fact that these meetings and lectures are but the foundation of programs of learn- ing in women's clubs throughout the coming year. In addition, the mem- bers of the faculty have taken par- ticular care in preparing their lec- tures to assure the best possible pro- .gram., 200 Members Enrolled, Enrollment figures released by Dr. C. A. Fisher of the Extension Division show an attendance of more than 200 members, representing 59 cities and towns throughout the state. This' fig- ure is a gain of 25tper cent over last year's registration total. 'Addressing the morning session yes- terday, Dr. Paul F. Voelker, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, characterized his "New Deal inEdu- cation" with a plea for an educational system that will give every student a chance, and not just recognize the "intellectual" side of life. "The cut and dried curriculum of our schools today does not recognize the abilities of the student, but r6ther. says get our system or get out," he said as he urged' that Michigan refrain from doing away with the so-called "frills of education," but rather add to them because they were a step to- ward the ideal of a "try-out" system which would allow the student to find. out what he liked, and for whathe could be best fitted. Federal Control Undesirable The speaker was inclined to believe' that a form of Federal control or even ,support of education, with the exception of emergency periods, was not desirable. He favored the con-, tinuance of a maximum of local con- trol with a maximum of state sup-1 port, which he believed should be a1 minimum of $100 per month for each teacher. Cushing Denies Charges Made B Dr. D. Carr County Auditor Says No Tuberculosis Patieut Was Denied' Treatment Declaring that no patient recom- mended for tuberculosis treatment by the county tuberculosis nurse was refused, L. 0. Cushing, County Audi- tor, yesterday denied statements that "comparatively few" tubercular indi- gents received treatment from the county. The charge was made by Dr. Duane M. Carr, University hospital surgeon, Mr. Cushing also refuted a state- ment .appearing in the May report of the Washtenaw Tuberculosis Associa- tion claiming that its budget had been reduced to $16,000 by the county. He said that an $18,000 .appropriation for hospitalization of tuberculosis treat- ment has been tentatively approved. This amount has been augmented by a rebate of $5,690 from the state, he added. Statistics were cited to show that University hospital rates are from two to three times as high as those in the American Legion hospital and the Leland After-Cure Hospital. Mr. Cushing attributed to this difference in cost the facththat county patients are sent to one of the latter two hos- pitals, unless the better facilities of the University hospital are thought particularly necessary. Eight cases treated at the Univer- sity. hospital during the last quarter of 1933 cost the county $645.83, while the same eight cases would have only cost $237.51 at the Leland After-Cure Hospital, Mr. Cushing said. Although he admitted that better treatment was to be obtained at the University hospital, he said that there "simply is not money to pay the cost." CUBANS ATTACK COMMUNISTS HAVANA, May 18. - (AP)- "Death to Communists!" is the battle cry to be raised in Cuba by a new political party -"Afirmacion Nacional." One of its policies will be to seek better relations with the United States. Jose 1. Rivero, Havana newspaper editor, disclosed plans for the organi- zation of the party Thursday. "One of the main objects," he said, "is to avoid forcing the government into a dictatorship, which the Communists are trying their utmost to do." c Named Tammany Head -Associated Press Photo Bodies of three members of the crew of the ill-fated lightship Nantucket were brought to New York by the liner Olympic, which rammed the lightship off the coast of Massachusetts. Seven men died as the light- ship sank, and four were saved. Members of the Olym fic's crew are shown carrying one victim ashore. Jewish Boycott On Nazi Goods is Protested NEW YORK, May 18.-(/P) -The friends of the new Germany drove a counter-attack today against the Jewish boycott on German goods in the United States. In a resolution, adopted at a rally of 20,000 Nazi sympathizers Thurs- day night in Madison Square Garden, they called on President Roosevelt to order a department of justice in- vestigation of the boycott. Nearly 1,000 policemen, reinforced by several hundred uniformed mem- bers of the "Ordnungs Dienst," pa- trolled the aisles of the hall and the streets outside, maintaining order Acting Is Not enough, Rollo Peters Wants To Be A Director -Associated Press Photo William P.

Varta Elected To Lead Co-Op Boarding House (Continued from Page 1) never discharged a student employe, and have given work to between 30 and 40 all year, a number that amounts to from 20 to 30 per cent of the entire enrollment, and have never asked the students to work more than two and a quarter hours at the most for their meals. Members Co-operate During the crisis this year the working members of the group vol- untarily offered to work fewer hours and make part-payments of cash in- stead to help the organization. Their excellent co-operation was of great help in maintaining operation. The Michigan Co-operative, claim the directors, has now established it- self as a permanent institution and will continue its service to Michigan students even when good times return to the campus. They point out that rising commodity prices and conse- quent rises in board prices will en- able them to keep on helping the stu- dent body. Would-Be Sampson Attempts Capture Of Runaway Lion PARIS, May 18.- (')-A soldier who tried to play Samson with a run- away circus lion was badly scratched and mauled for his heroism today. The lion, bored with life in a men- agerie on the outskirts of Paris, de- cided to see the sights in the French capital. He pulled up the planks in the bottom of his cage and headed for the bright lights. The soldier, attached to the air service, tried to capture the sight-seer single handed, but instead went to a hospital. The soldier cornered the lion in an angle of an old fortification., The lion took a swipe at him. He kicked the lion. Thereupon, the king of beasts - tiring of the annoyance - bit the soldier in the shoulder and clawed him about the head. It was just about this time that the lion's trainer arrived. He got the fu- gitive into a portable cage while the whole neighborhood scurried for shel- ter. League Sees New Soviet Arms Stand GENEVA, May 18, - 0P) - Signs of a new attitude on the part of Russia, which might bring about a European pact that Could serve as a preliminary to an a mament agree- mnent, were seen by League of Na- tions circles today as the result of a visit here of Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet Commisar for Foreign Affairs. Lit- vinoff, arriving unexpectedly, con- ferred with Louis Barthoux, French foreign minister. There were wide- spread reports that he discussed the possibility of a mutual assistance agreement which would affect only the Russian-European frontier, Outdoor Club Will Meet Today At Sylvan Estates The Outdoor Club will hold its last meeting of the year this afternoon at Sylvan Estates.

He admits, at the same time, that .it is perhaps surprising that he hasn't wanted to, since stage work is pretty demanding and has a tendericy to become strenuous at times. The brief radio performances in which he has taken part have commanded consid- erable attention however and he con- fesses that such work is fascinating. His most important roles in this con- nection . have been in a scene from "Romeo and Juliet," which he pre- sented with Miss Cowl, and a scene from "Grand Hotel" with Miss Leon- tovich. Local productions, such as those whichahave been carried on by Hen- derson, are, according to Peters, of prime importance today.''We seem to have had a cultural lag in this country which is surprising," he says; "and any attempts to catch up are neces- sarily worth-while. "As difficult as it may be to accomplish, it seems neces- sary to get away from the concentra- tion which has been placed upon. New York City in. this respect. It is surprising and deplorable, for in- stance, that a city the size and im- portance of Chicago has no produc- tion unit of its own."
