4 Language Aspects
To Be Dealt With
University Chosen Scene
Of Revival Because Of
Excellent Facilities
One of the new features which will
attract many notables in the field of
linguistic science to the University
this summer is the Linguistic Insti-
tute to be held here under the joint
auspices of tfie Linguistic Society of
America and the University of Mich-
igan.
The Linguistic Institute will be re-
vived here this summer after having
been discontinued in 1932 because of
the effects of the depression upon the
teaching profession.
The Institute was rouned in 1928
by the Linguistic Society of America
for the purpose of providing students
with facilities adequate for the study
of linguistic science. In 192-8 and
1929 the Institute was held at Yale,
while in 1930 and 1931 the sessions
were held at the College of the City
of New York.
The director of th c Institute for the
sumier will be Prof. Charles C. Fries
of the English department and editor
of the Early Modern English Dic-
tionary which is being compiled at
present at the University. The assis-
tant director will be Prof. Edgar H.
Sturtevant of Yale. Other members
of the administrative committee will
be Prof. Roxland G. Kent of the
University of Pennsylvania, Prof. Nor-
man L. Willey and Prof. William H.
Worrell of the University of Mich-
igan.
The University was chosen as the
location for this year's session, it was
-xplained, because of the excellent
facilities available. Some of these
advantages are the researches of the
Early Modern English and Middle
English Dictionaries, the collection
of papyri for students in the Classics
and the Coptic, and the material from
recent excavations in the Near East
for students in Semitic. A laboratory
with sound-recording apparatus will
also be placed at the disposal of the
members of the Institute.
The Institute will deal principally
with four aspects of language study,
the science of language, the compar-
ative grammar of different languages,
the historical development of the
language, and the elementary study of
non-Indo-European languages. How-
ever, work will be directed not only
in thedirection of languagestudy
but also in the direction of a greater

Cost Of Living
Low At Summer
Session Here
Summer Session fees and cost of
living will again be low this sum-
mer, thus enabling many to attend
in spite of the general higher cost of
living throughout the country.
However, the cost of living in Ann
Arbor depends upon the individual
person -- how much he wants to
spend. But the recreational advan-
tages offered by the University during

the summer put incidental expenses
at a minimum. The rest is up to the
student.
The tuition costs for the College
of Literature, Science and the Arts,
College of Engineering, College of
Pharmacy, College of Architecture,
the School of Education, the School
of Business Administration and the
School of Music require a fee of $34.

PRES. ALEXANDER G. RUTHVEN
President's Message
Within a few weeks the Univer-
sity of Michigan will be commenc-
ing its forty-third Summer Session.
What was in the first place a most
informal affair, an experiment con-
ducted by a few professors, has be-
come an integral part of the year's'
program. Every school and college
on the Campus will participate in
the Session, and a wealth of courses
will be available for the student's
choice.
Every Summer Session has its
special attractions. Visiting scho-
lars offer types of work not always
obtainable in the September-to-
June academic session. This year
the Linguistic Institute demon-
strates what diversity of instuction
in both the mechanical and the
aesthetic side of language Mich-
igan can offer, with very little out-
side help to its own resources. Our
Biological Station and our field
courses in Forestry, Geology, Geog-
raphy, and Surveying all maintain
a high standard of excellence.
Both to the students now in resi-
dence, who desire to make the sum-
mer months profitable scholastical-
ly, and to those who cannot, be-
cause they are otherwise occupied,
carry on their studies during the
rest of the year, the University pre-
.,ents unusual opportunities for val-
uable work under pleasant condi-
tions.
Alexander G. Ruthven.

Teachers of international law from
all over the United States will come
here this summer to attend the an-
nual Summer Institute of Interna-
tional Law.
The sessions open the last week
in June, and will be taught, by lecture
and seminar, by fiveof the most dis-

Plants On Program
A traditional feature of the Uni-
versity Summer Session which is ex-
pected to prove even more popular
this summer than ever before is the'
series of special tours, not only
through points of interest in Ann
Arbor, but to Detroit, Niagara Falls'
and Greenfield Village as well. '
All students in attendance at the
Session may take these tours, which
are all conducted by competent
guides. There is no charge for ex-
cursions through Ann Arbor, and
only a nominal fee to cover travel-
ing expenses is charged for those to
other cities.
First Excursion July 2
The first excursion will be held at
2 p.m., July 2, and will consist of a
tour of the campus, including a thor-
ough inspection of the General Li-
brary, the Clements Library of early
American history, the Cook Legal
Research Library, and other buildings
of the Law Quadrangle, the Union,
the Aeronautical laboratory, the naval
tank and other points of interest.
The Ford plant will be inspected on
the second tour, to be held July 8.
Students will visit the various Ford
industries at River Rouge. The trip
will be made by special buses, and
reservations must be made in the
office of the Summer Session in
Angell Hall. The buses will leave Ann
Arbor at 12:45 p.m., returning at
5:30 p.m.
The fourth tour to be held July 15
will repeat this excursion, for the
benefit of those unable to go at that
time.

Summer Courses
By I. S. SILVERMAN
With what is expected to be the
largest enrollment in its history, the
43rd annual Summer Session will open
on June 29, offering one of the most
inclusive and expansive programs of
study and recreation yet devised.
The predicted enrollment, as ad-
vanced earlier in the year by Prof.
Louis A. Hopkins, director of the
Summer Session, was set at 4400 stu-
dent, but the latest indications, as
forecast by increased inquiries prove
that the estimate was a conservative
one, that the enrollment for the com-
ing summer may even exceed that
peak.
Law School Registration
Registration begins June 26 in all
schools and colleges of the University
except the Law School and the Geol-
ogy camp. These units will begin
June 22. Classes in all the other
schools and colleges will be held June
29 and following until the. end of the
eight-week session on Aug. 21. How-
ever, the six-week courses in the
Medical School, the School of Educa-
tion and in Hygiene and Public Health
will end Aug. 7.
The subjects offered are classified
under undergraduate courses; special
or technical courses for teachers,
librarians, engineers, lawyers, and
physicians in active practice; and
graduate courses, designed for stu-
dents qualified to enroll for a higher
degree.
Courses will be offered in all the
schools and colleges of the University,
with the exception of the School of
Dentistry, which courses may be tak-
en in other related fields.
Schools Offering Courses Listed
Schools and colleges offering cours-
es include: College of Literature, Sci-
ence, and the Arts; College of Engi-
neering; College of Pharmacy; Col-
lege of Architecture; School of Edu-
cation; School of Music; School of
Business Administration; Medical,
Law and Graduate Schools; and in
the Division of Hygiene and Public
Health.
Courses outside of Ann Arbor will
be conducted at the Davis Engineer-
ing Camp, the Biological Station, the
field stations for geology and geogra-
ply and at Camp Filibert Roth of
the School of Forestry and Conserva-
tion.
The increase in enrollment, it was
explained, will be a natural contin-
uation of the steadily mounting fig-
ures in enrollment during the last
few years. In the charts and statistics
released by Professor Hopkins, it was
noted that the Summer Session is

Carillon To Arrive
During Summer
During the session the Charles A.
Baird Carillon will arrive here from
Loughborough, England, where they
are being cast.

The bells for the campanile will be
53 in number and will weigh 60 tons.
Their cost will approximate $65,000
and will be the third largest carillon
in the world. The bells will have a
complete chromatic range of four and
one-half octaves.
The fund enabling the establish-
ment of the campanile was founded by
Charles A. Baird, a University grad-
uate and the first aothli-ti irpar~of

'Tented City' Planned As Fresh
Air Camp For Summer Students

A "city of tents" may be established
here for the first time this summer
for summer students and faculty
which would offer the comi:'rts of
home as well as the rugged existence
of outdoor life.
However, these will not be the
only motives in setting up such a
camp. Coolness, comfort and free-
dom will be the virtues to be gained
by living "out in the open." The
Summer School will then truly be a
haven for the sports-minded and the,
rgea1 individalists (nnt in the nco-

embarrassed, for whom such a "city"
would materially lower living ex-
penses, but also those who "take to
the open road" with their families
in trailers and could park in such a
space while taking courses in the
University as a pastime as well as
for intellectual curiosity.
The idea of a "city of tents" is an
old one, a colony having been estab-
lished at the University of Wiscon-
sin in 1912. Last summer there were
approximately 65 tent "homes" at
Wisonnsin in which more than 200
