Free lectures and entertainments
for the amusement and instruction of
;summer school students constitute a
program on which noted professors of
thAs and other universities will appear.
The lectures will deal principally
with current and special educational
topics, and unless otherwise specified,
will be held in the Natural Science
auditorium. Visitors' night at the Ob-
servatory and the excursions to
Niagara, Falls and Put-in-Bay are the
only ones for which there will be any
charge.
Educational motion pictures and re-
citals by the faculty of the University
School of Music are some of the big
attractions of the program.
Students and others desiring to go
on the excursions to Niagara Falls,
July 18, or to Put-in-Bay on August
3, are requested to consult as early
as possible with Prof. I. D. Scott or
Mr. F. W. Frostic in the Natural Sci-
ence building. Admission to the Ob-
servatory on visitors' night is secur-
ed only by means of tickets which
may be obtained at the office of the
summer session upon presentation of
the treasurer's receipt for fees.

This statement, made Friday by
Dlean Edward H. Kraus indicates that
119 is to be the banner year in the
history of the Summer school. Un-
ofiicial figures at this time show an
increase of more than 500 enrollments
over last year, and it is estimated
that the attendance will reach the
1,900 mark. Applications for admis-
sion are constantly coming in, both
by mail and in person, a large num-
ber of enrollments having come in by
mail this year. It is expected that
today's registration will swell the
total attendance considerably..
Available figures'show that the big-
gest year for the Summer school ses-
sion was in 1916, at which time the
attendance in all colleges was 1,793.
The following year the attendance
dropped to 1,449, and last year, due to
war conditions the enrollment drop-
ped to 1,304.

Higher Surveying Work
Training in the camp will comprise,
for the most part, work in higher sur-
veying, with the exception of the
work in forestry. This will include
both field and class work. The main
emphasis, however, will be laid on the
practical outdoor work. In accord-
ance with the general plan of im-
provement, a certain amount of work
will be done in the surveying of roads
through the reservation.
Pastime Activities
Besides the serious training 'of the
camp there will be many activities with
which the students will spend their
spare time. There will be athletics
and swimming foi' all who enjoy that
sort of pastime and an orchestra for
those musically inclined. A new
piano which has been purchased and
sent to the camp will be a great help
to the orchestra, which promises to be
the best of any previous camp orches-
tras.
The camp every year publishes a
camp paper called the Black Fly. Be-
cause it'is published in the blue print
form, this paper occupies a unique
place in the field of journalism. It is
published by the students of the
camp and will cover all of their ac-
tivities. To the editor falls the tedious
job of printing and composing the pa-
per by the mechanical drawing meth-
od, which is in itself a very tedious
job.
LAST SEMESTER'S MARKS WILL
BE MAILED OUT NEXT WEEK
The great annual event that some
students look forward to, with joy,
while others dread without measure,
has been delayed a few days. The
event in question is the annual mail-
ing out of last semester's grades to
the homes of the students. Work is
now being rushed so that all of the
grades will be in the mails by the
middle of the week.
Seventy Leave
For Camp Davis
Seventy students who are enrolled
for the summer work at Camp Davis
left Friday morning to take up their
duties. They were accompanied by
Prof. Clarence T. Johnston and several
other professors' and instructors who
will have charge of the summer
work.
Camp Davis is an institution that
has long been a part of the Univer-
sity of Michigan. The first camp was
organized in 1874 and was held at
Whitmore lake. Between that date
and 1909 the camp enjoyeda some-
what roving life, being held each year
at a different place. In 1909 the Uni-
versity bought the present site and
since that time the camp has been
held there annually. It is situated
about 13 miles west of Cheboygan and
about 20 miles northeast of Petoskey.
New Land and Buildings
It has been the policy of the Univer-
sity to improve the camp from year
to year. This season the University
has not only bought some adjoining
land, now bringing the reservation up
to 3,200 acres of fine land, but has
also made building improvements. The
living quarters of the students have
been enlarged by the addition of 10
steel buildings to the group of 40 al-
ready constructed. With these im-
provements the camp is now consid-
ered to be admirably suited to both
forestry and surveying work, as well
as being able to accommodate more
students.'

tist and a noted singer of oratorio
and concert nusic, Nv 11 come to An
Arbor next fall to head the vocal de-
partment of the University School of
Music, a position to which he has
been appointed following the resigna-
tion of Mr. Theodore Harrison.
Mr. Russell Carter of Amsterdam,
N. Y., will succeed Miss Florence B.
Potter as director of the public school
music department.
The preceding announcements were
made Friday afternoon by Mr. Charles
A. Sink, secretary of the School of
Music.
Mr. Wheeler has done a great deal
of research work in the field of folk-
songs of which he has made, together
with his wife who is also a vocalist

specialized in the music of the 16th

ing acting as his accompanist on the.
harpsichord.

several of the large easirn universi-
ties, and as a church singer for the
past six years has held two of the
most important positions in New York
City-St. Bartholemew's and Temple
Emmanuel.
Mr. Wheeler is a graduate of Beloit
college, class of '00. While in college
he was leader of the glee club and
fullback on the football team. If Mr.
Wheeler's interest in college activi-
ties may be taken as a criterion, he
will be well adapted to his new en-
vironment.

Mr. Carter, who comes to fill Miss
Potter's place, is an alumnus of the
Institute of Musical Art, New York
City. He has studied extensively in

important positions as organist, and
as choir master in leading churches
of Amsterdam, Albany, and Brooklyn,
and has been the leader of the Albany
community chorus.
Miss Potter to Continue
Miss Potter will continue in public
school music work as an associate of
Mr. Carter.
Announcements from the School of
Music have been awaited with great
interest by the Ann Arbor public ever
since it became known that Mr. Har-
rison, present head of the vocal de-
partment, had accepted a position with
a Chicago school of musical art. Many.
inducemnts were offered to Mr. Har-
rison that he might remain here, but
his decision has been in favor of the
metropolitan school. He will not,
however, leave Ann Arbor until fall,
continuing his classes here through-
out the summer.
