Travers Says

More teachers and fewer vet-
erans will attend summer school
this year, Louis A. Hopkins, direc-
tor of the Summer Session, pre-
dicted recently.
The total enrollment should be
close to last year's total of 10,516,
Hopkins declared. If the interna-
tional situation gets any tighter,
there will probably be more, he
added..
A much more varied range of
programs can be built during the
summer, Hopkins said, because of
the more flexible situation which
exists in regard to course facili-
ties and faculty members.
Worldwide Courses
The summer session this year
will offer courses all over the
world, including specialized study
camps in the United States and
Canada, and a tour of Europe for
physical education majors.
Students taking the European
tour, which offers them from two
to six hours of credit, will visit
Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, Hol-
land, France, England, Scotland,

and Wales, and will attend the
1948 Olympic games at London.
In Michigan, the summer school
camps include a biological station
at Douglas Lake, a forestry sta-
tion at Golden Lake, the speech
correction camp at Northport, a
geography station at Wilderness
Park, the Fresh Air Camp, and
the famed music school camp at
Interlochen.
Graduate Programs
Graduate programs will be con-
ducted at all five of the State
Teachers' Colleges - Marquette,
Kalamazoo, Ypsilanti, and Mt.
Pleasant, and extension courses
will be offered in Detroit.
Outside study groups will in-
clude an archaeology camp in On-
tario, and a geology and geodesy
session at Camp Davis, Wyoming.
The regular faculty here in Ann
Arbor will include many distin-
guished men from the major uni-
versities in this country and
abroad, as well as members of
various branches of the govern-
ment.

Veterans who become perma-
nently and totally disabled, even
though such disability has no con-
nection with war service, may be
entitled to a minimum pension of
sixty dollars monthly, Veterans'
Administration officials have an-'
nounced.
The pension is payable-to eligi-
ble veterans whose annual incomeI
does not exceed $1,000 if the vet-I
Bran has no dependents or $2,500
if he has. The pension is auto-t
matically increased to $72 after1
ten years or after reaching the
age of 65.
To qualify for this type of pen-
sion, the applicant must show
that the disability is not due to
his own misconduct, that he has
served at least ninety days, unless
discharged for line-of-duty disa-
bility, and must have been dis-
charged under conditions other
than dishonorable.
The pension provision applies
only to veterans whose disabilities
are not service-connected.
* *
To prevent overpayment of sub-
sistence allowances, the Veterans
Administration urges student vet-
erans and their schools to notify
VA as soon as a veteran inter-
rupts or completes his training.
A veteran under the G.I. Bill is
not entitled to payment after the
'da~te of completion or interrup-
tion. Payments made after this
date must be refunded to the gov-
ernment.
Advance notice is preferable
whenever a decision is made to
discontinue training. Prompt no-
tice immediately after such break
will prevent most overpayments.

r Mann scholarship in Library Sci-
e ence by the alumni of the De-
partment of Library Science.

Some popular iisconcept ions
about the testing pro"Prain for s'-
cd semester sophomores were
cleared up recently by Robert W.
Travers. Chief examiner of the
Bureau of Psychological Services.
Travers, who is in chaige of ad-
ministering the sophomore testing
iiogramn, pointed out that low
scores in any cne of the six fields
of knowledge covered by the tests
does not mean that the student
should avoid that area of study.
On the contrary, it suggests that
the student should take additional
work in that field, Travers said.
High Uniformity Needed
Since the tests are being given
at the end of the student's two-
year geheral education period, it
is desirable that his scores should
be uniformly high, and not just

1gh in thoe ars in which he
expects to concentrate lie de-
clared.
Travers also pointed out that
the tests usually reveal many stu-
dents who are well informed in a
particular field, but who cannot
read intelligently and critically in
that same field.
Information Important
The student's grades in college
are usually more closely related to
the amount of information which
he picks up than to his ability to
read intelligently, he explained.
The tests, which are compulsory
for all literary college students
with from 45 to 59 hours of credit,
will be given from 8 a.m. to 12
and from 1 to 5 p.m. Tuesday in
the Rackham Auditorium.
