Professor Conger Cites Vgr'ot
Practices Necessaty for
Secondary Schools.
90 PERCENT ARE SMALL
Consolidation, Better Control,,
Use of Movies, Radio,
Endorsed by Speaker.
"There are approximately 18,000
high schools in the United States,
and about 90 per cent of these
.would be inculded in the classifi-
cation of having 350 or less," said
Prof. Wray H. Conger yesterday in
addressing the first of the graduate
conferences on "Progressive Prac-
tices in the Administration of Small
High Schools."
Should Consolidate Gains.
"There can be found numerous
instances of progressive practices
among the small high schools de-
spite the fact that they are the
least well administered in the field
of secondary education. The prob-
lem now is to consolidate these
gains and make available to all the
sum total of our knowledge," he
said. .
Professor Conger went on to cite
the various progressive practices in
use at the present time. Among
those were: "Development of ad-
ministrative procedures such as
consolidating small; cdistricts into
larger areas for the support and
control of rural schools; the use of
the 6-6 rather than the 8-4 type
of school organization which has
very special advantages for the
smaller high schools in that it im-
proves instruction, betters organi-
zation of subject matter presented,.
lightens teacher-loads, and gives
a more efficient unit for school ad-
ministration-; and a considerable
increase in the number of up-to-,
date buildings and equipment in
smaller towns, together with stu-
dent projects for beautifying the
grounds.
Leadership Needed.

Dearborn Flyer Heads
Air Race in Oklahoma
PONCA CITY, Okla., July 20.-
(P)-Pilots in the National Air Tour
rere headed for Shanute, Kan.,
and Kansas City today in contin-
uation of a flight for the Edsel B.
Ford trophy and $25,000 in cash
prizes.
The three leaders arrived here
Sunday from Fort Worth, Tex., and
Oklahoma City in the order of their
point standings. Harry L. Russell,
Dearborn, Mich., led the flyers into
Ponca City by several minutes. He
has an advantage of almost 4,000
points over James H. Smart, of
Pine Bluff, Ark., who arrived next.
Lowell R. Bayles, Springfield, Mass.,
was third.
Pilot Delays Opening
Parachute; Loses Life
DETROIT, July 20.-(IP)-Tardi-;
ness in opening his parachute on a
forced jump Sunday cost the life
of Maj. Louis G. Meister, 40, test
pilot for the Verille Aircraft cor-
poration, after he had put the plane
he was testing into a spin from,
which he apparently could not right;
it.
Witnesses said he either had de-
liberately delayed pulling the rip-,
cord of his chute in fear the fall-
ing plane would overtake him or
had lost consciousness.
Sports VWoman
Women on campus will have an-
other opportunity to play field hoc-
key this week because of the great
enthusiasm which they showed last
Wednesday ight at the open game
which was held at Palmer field.-
The game this week will also be1
at 7:15 o'clock on Wednesday night
and the players are expected to be
dressed for play on Palmer field at
that time. There will be two teams
just as there were last week and'
after the game is over, the players'
will return to the field house for1
refreshments.
Besides the usual beginners and
intermediate plalyers tennis tourn-
aments which are to be sponsored

LEAGUE WIL HDLD
WIEEK-END DANCES
New Policy to Be Inaugurated
Friday; Tickets to Sell
for Twenty-Five Cents.
Friday night dances at the
League building will be inaugurated
as a regular weekly form of enter-
tainment this summer under the
supervision of the Women's League
and the Dean of Women's office.
Tickets may be secured for twenty-
five cents upon the presentation of
the student treasurer's receipt.
Dancing will be from 9:00 to 1:00
o'clock in the ballroom of the Lea-
gue and aseven-piece orchestra has
been secured fr the music. The
purpose for which these affairs are
being given is to provide entertain-
ment for students in the Summer
Session remaining in Ann Arbor for
the week end. There will be com-
mittees for introducing those at-
tending to one another.
Due to the exceptionally hot
weather during most of the Summer
Session men have not been required
to wear coats at League parties and
the same practice will be allowed in
case of continuing warm tempera-
tures at the Friday night dances. It
has been asked particularly, how-
ever by sponsors of the League
dances that men refrain from roll-
ing shirt sleeves and removing
neckties.
Fall on Way to Santa
Fe Prison; Health Fair
THREE RIVERS, N. M., July 20.
-(IP)-Albert B. Fall faced a 200-
mile trip from his Tres Rios ranch
today to the New Mexico peniten-
tiary at Santa Fe, where he is sen-
tenced to serve a term of a year
and a day for accepting a bribe
while secretary of the interior.
An ambulance, described by the
former cabinet officer as a
"damned hearse," awaited him for
resumption of the journey from El
Paso, Tex. His party ,including
Mrs. Fall and a granddaughter,
Martha Fall, arrived here Satur-
day night.
The halt was suggested by Dr.
J. H. Gambrell, his personal physi-
cian, who said Fall had stood the
trip fairly well, but was "feeble
and tired." Fall had no visitors
Sunday. He retired early.

By C. H. Beukema.
The question of a pivot man
bothered Harry Kipke a great deal
when the 1930 football practice sea-
son opened, for he was at a loss
to know who might fill the berth
that Al Bovard had occupied so
capably for three years. He tried
out Doc Morrison, until than a full-
back, and with what result the
world knows. Morrison was
troubled with a hip injury for
weeks, but during that time he
learned to pass back and when
when the season opened was well
on his way.
* * *
During the season he outplayed
every center he met except Ben
Ticknor, Harvard's All-American
pivot man, and Ticknor showed but
little more than Morrison had to
offer. A comparison there was in-
teresting, as both men charge hard
and both played a roving position
back of the line on defense. Tick-
nor's superiority was demonstrated
wholly on defense.

Another season is approaching
Tomorrow's Tea Dance
to Honor Drama Heads
Play Production will be the guests
of honor at the regular 4:00 o'clock
Wednesday tea dance in the League
building this week. Special guests
will be Mr. Valentine B. Windt, Mr.
and Mrs. Thomas Wood Stevens,
Mr. and Mrs. Jean Mercier, and
students in Play Production. This
tea affords an opportunity to all
people interested in dramatic work
to become acquainted with directors
and performers in the Summer
Repertory plays.
Mrs. H. R. Allen and Mrs. John
L. Brumm will pour. Cool drinks
~will be served. The music for danc-
ing will be furnished by Kenneth
Lundquist's orchestra.

uating classes weigh seven and a

and Kipke has little need to wor-
ry about the middle of his line.
Morrison, about 215 pounds of him,
will be back. And to back him up
will come Charles Bernard, of Ben-,
ton Harbor, one of the best centers'
seen in Michigan high school cir-'
cles in years. Bernard also tips the
scales at well over 200 pounds, is
more than six feet tall, has speed
-in fact possesses just about every-
thing a center is expected to have.
* * *
Morrison will have first call at
center, but he will have to keep on
his toes if Bernard is to be kept in'
the background. The western Mich-
igan youth will not be kept out of
the picture altogether, however, as
Coach Kipke plans to train him as
a tackle also. Howard Auer and
Tom Samuels are first-class line-
men, but they will need support and'
Bernard is too good a man to be
kept on the bench indefinitely.
* * *
Charlie Hoyt's hopes for a cross-
country team this fall will rest
largely in the performances of
Captain-elect Harmon Wolfe, Doc
Howell, Bill Hill and Alix, the lat-
ter a sophomore. But the shadow
of scholastic deficiency is lurking
here as well as on the other squads,
though not necessarily in the group
named above.

Big Perry Austin was the 1930
hera, taking firsts in the Wisconsin
run and in the triangular race with
Ohio State and Illinois, and seconds
in the meets with Michigan State
with Wolfe for 20th in thec(o fifi
and Michigan Normal. He tied with
Wolfe for 20th in the conference
meet and Hill finished 22nd.

Why do Most
tudents buy Sheafer's?*
It is a fact proven by sales figures that
among America's hundred leading col-
leges, each with 1700 or more students
registered, Sheaff'er's outsell all others.
Is such leadership ever an accident? BA L NCE
You know the answer. These sophisti- T3. onb awe e
cated pen users have found that they i'cli hlT'&
like Sheaffer's individualized pen points,
that they like the comfortable Balance*
designed into Sheaffer's, that they like
the streamlined, modern contour of the
Balance* pen and pencil, and that
Sheaffer's Lifetime* guarantee of satis-
factory service means something.
That explains Sheaffer's college sales
leadership, and prompts the suggestion
that if you'll give Sheaffer's Balance*
Lifetime°a class-room test, you'll adopt
that pen for your Lifetime0.
