EXPECT MORE TO ENROLL
Enrollment In Literary College Lower
Than In Previous Years; Also
In School Of Education
Registration .figures for the Summer
Session continued to swell throughout
yesterday as additional students en-
rolled in the various schools and col-
leges of the University. According to
the report submitted by Edward H. I
Kraus, dean of the Summer Session,
there were 319 more registrations
when the recorder's office closed yes-
terday at 4 o'clock than there were on
the day previous. Yesterday's total
registration was 3,131, while a year
ago on that date the number was 3,398.
Excludes Health Institutes
The final registration of last year's
Summer Session indicated an enroll-
ment of 3,667. This figure does not
include the students enrolled in the
Public Health Institutes. Dean Kraus
stated yesterday that in his opinion the
registration to date would be increas-
ed by approximately 300 students be-
fore the week is over.
The increases over last year's figures
are shown in the Medical school, whose1
registration yesterday was 284, or 37
more than the total amount last year,
in the College of Pharmacy with an
increase of three, bringing its total
enrollment to date up to 36, and in the
Graduate School with an enrollment
of 97, or an inreas of 100 over the
registration figures of a year ago.I
Comparison With Last Year
Enrollment figures to date along
with the registrations of a year ago in
the other schools and colleges of the
University are as follows: Literary col-
lege, 865 enrolled to date with the fig-
ure a year ago placed 'at 1,132; Col-
leges of Engineering and Architecture,
312 to date, 340 a year ago; Law
schpol, 148 to date, 158 a year ago;
School of Education, 496 to date, 604
a year ago; School of Business Ad-
ministration, 17 to date, 21 a year
ago.
About 150 students are expected in
the total enrollment for the Public
Health Institutes. This number is not
included in the Summer Session total
enrollment.
The registration of students will
be carried on today and throughout the
week. The delay in registration by
many students is caused by the late
closing of many other colleges and
universities.

NOBILE SEARCH
BLOCKED BY FOG
(By Associated Press)
KINGSBAY, Spitzenbergen, June 26.
-Milder weather without wind brought
fog to the Arctic and again today
tied up the rescue and seach work of
the aviators and mariners who are try-
ing to save survivors of the Nobile ex-
pedition and to discover the where-

abouts of Roald Amundsen's rescue
plane.
The milder weather, however, is
making for better ice conditions. As
soon as the fog blanket lifts the ships
will be able to work closer to the six
men marooned near Foyn Island. The
base ship of the Nobile expedition, Cit-
ta De Milano, may shift her position
to the north entrance of Hinlspen.
Floyd Fitzsimmons has leased Na-
vin field this summer for several out-

"The citizens of the state of Michi-

they have a great deal to do even
yet in the bettering of their park sys-
tem," said Professor P. 0. Whittemore
in an illustrated lecture delivered yes-
terday afternoon at 5 o'clock in the
Natural Science auditorium. "All this
despite the fact that they have over 50
parks in the state at the present," he
added, "because a grea many of these
so-called parks are nothing more
than camping places."
Maine Was First
Professor Whittemore began his talk
by defining a park, laying especial
emphasis on the need for some more
parks of natural beauty and for fewer
that have no other purpose in their
establishment than to advertise the lo-
cality or to furnish camping places for
the tourists that pass that way. Then
with the aid of a series of beautiful
illustrations he carried his audience
on a journey to all the most beautiful
parks in North America.

President Remains
Cool As Democrats
Gather At Houston
(By Associated Press)
SUPERIOR, Wis., June 26.-The
opening of the Democratic convention
in Houston today caused no ripples in
the ordinary White House routine here
President Coolidge's quiet and sunny
life on the Brule river was disposed
to continue without interruption, with
attention being devoted to what busi-
ness was at hand but with the natural
beauty and the open air recreations of
Cedar Island lodge claiming first place
in the day's activities.
Mr. Coolidge had no closer contact
with events at Houston than the aver-
age voter, the daily press and the
radio being his only sources of infor-
mation. The radio at the lodge, how-
ever, has proved very unsatisfactory
so far owing to intereference caused

by the little power station on the es-
tate itself.
Mr. Coolidge was said to be, out-
wardly at least, far more interested at
present in learning how to paddle a
canoe than in watching the Democrat.

guide, has been taking the chief ex-
ecutive out on the Brule teaching him
how to guide his paddle and how to
keep the fragile craft on its course
without shifting from side to side.

one of the strongest of the many
attacks Reed has leveled at his arch

foe, Hoover, since the Republican
nominee took office as food adminis-
trator during the war.
Reed undaunted
Undaunted by the increasing claims
of the Smith forces, the silver haired
campaigner' turned loose his state-
ment against Hoover today as part
of his campaign for the Democratic
nomination. He coupled with it a
brief reiteration of his decliaration for
law and service, expressing amuse-
ment at the construction placed upon
the claims that "I +have changed my
views with reference to sustaining the
law and constitution."
While Reed was blasting away at
Hoover, hi's allies in the battle against
Smith, the drys from the South, were
turning their attention to the plat-
form contest, leaving for the moment,
if not for good, the presidential situ-
ation. The band of southerners are
still hopeful that the lineup of Reed
and their favorite sons candidates can
hold intact sufficient votes to block
Smith, but they are more intent Just

by some to have been reflected in
their continued silence but Reed feels

if Smith is stopped.
In his statement today the Missouri
serautor laid the "desperate condition"
of the farmer directly to Hoover as
food administrator during the war and
to the Fordney-McCumber Tariff Act
which he said was "fully sanctioned.
and approved by Hoover."

REMODEL _SKATING RINK
Work on additions to Michigan's al-
ready fine athletic plant was inaugu-
rated this week with the starting of
construction of ten tennis courts on
the land adjoining the Coliseum, the
home of the University's indoor ice
sports.
Simultaneous with the beginning of
construction of the tennis courts,
Fielding H. Yost, director of intercol-
legiate athletics, has announced the
letting of contracts for the installation
of ice-making machinery in the Coli-
seum and for the building of 16 addi-
tional tennis courts on Palmer field.
the playgroud for women studehts of
the University.
The contract for the ice refrigerat-
ing machine calls for one that will
have the capacity to maintain ice on
the Coliseum rink the whole year
around if desired. The fact will per-
mit ice skating to start in the fall as
desirable and to continue late in the
spring. This, in turn, will also enable
the Michigan hockey team to start
practice earlier, an impossibility here-
tofore. It' will also assure a definite
schedule of home games.
In addition to the installation of the
ice-making machinery, the entire Coli-
seum will be remodeled to seat 3,000
spectators and to provide dressing and
training rooms for the hockey teams.

"Classes in physical education which
are being offered to the women en-1
rolled in Summer school, are un-
usually numerous and varied this
year," stated Dr. Margaret Bell, headj
of the department of physical edu-!
cation. "Swimming, natural dancing,
bowling, golU, and tennis classes have
already begun, and are rapidly be-
comihg filled.
"I should think women in the teach-
ing profession would be particularly.
interested in the two classes in
Natural Dancing, which Miss Van
Tuyle teaches at 11 and 4 every day of
the week. These classes are open to
everybody, and would be invaluable to
the teacher who is interested in con-
serving her own strength, and gaining
the interest of her pupils.
"Natural dancing deals essentially
with work for body control, and true
and sincere self expression, and in de-
veloping an understanding and appre-
ciation' of music, and incidently, while
it deals with rhythm, it teaches people
to relax, and with more perfect relax-
ation, comes better sleep, and control

of resting.
"When I was in Chicago, a few
weeks tago, talking with several older
and prominant women on this subject
of physical education classes they
were particularly interested in natu-
ral dancing, because of the facilities
in this field we could offer them at
Michigan. We have the equipment
,and conveniences oif the new field
house to work with, and the best
teaching and music available. I think
that the average woman realizes the
pecuniary value of such lessions."
