if MEN 10 LECTURE ingements Made for Summer School Session. Problems of School Executives Treated The plans for this year’s Summer bool have been worked out with the Ff of particularly favoring high |‘ hod teachers. Arrangements have I . ^en made for special treatment I fthe problems of school executives, f Dh Joseph Schafer, of the History ■Department, said, in speaking of the I eii known men who will lecture dur Ijn ^ summer, “We expect to se I * Dr. Charles Forster Smith, Pro Ifessor of Greek at the University of I Wisconsin, for a course of five lec I tores. Dr. Smith is a great exponent | of cultural education and his lectures lore really masterpieces of thought and [instruction. J “Dr. J. Duncan Spaeth, of Princeton, L lecturer of national reputation, will [give lectures in English Literature, j We also expect to get Dr. P. P. Clax |tnn United States Commissioner of I Education, Commissioner Daniel Sned Iden of Massachusetts, and Pres. G. I Stanley Hall, of Clark University. I These men are aitfong the most dis I tinguished of the country's educators. 1 “Superintendent L. R. Alderman, I of the Portland schools, will conduct I a course in education sociology, while I Superintendent Charles R. Frazier, of I Everett, Washington, will have charge I of the courses in school supervision.’’ “Corcular letters have been, sent to I the high school teachers of the state (•with the idea of determining the in I terest that might be shown in a field [expedition for the study of Geology and Biology. If sufficient response is I made the project will undoubtedly be [ undertaken. “Last year about 175 people at tended the Summer School, but if the present interest is any indication, this year’s enrollment will be far larger | than ever before. The session will be from June 28 to August 6, and the annual Summer School Bulletin will be issued some time in March.” DR. SMITH DISCUSSES PHILIPPNIE QUESTION “Economic independence must pre cede political independence,” said Dr. W. D. Smith, of the Geology Depart ment, in discussing the Philippine question. “I do not believe,” he went on to say, “that the recent uprising there is of any very serious impor tance. While I am not entirely in ac cord with the Democratic program in the Philippines, I believe that Mr. Wil son in the end will solve the Philippine question, if he handles it himself.” Dr. Smith, who has spent over nine years in the Philippine Islands, is to give an illustrated travelogue at the Y. M. C. A. Friday evening, January 8, at 8:30 o’clock, on the subject, “The Philippine Islands, the Farthest In sular Possession of the United States.” In speaking of this lecture, Dr. Smith says, “I shall not attempt to go into the political side of the question very deeply, but shall rather present the economic and educational conditions, and only brief allusions will be made to the political situation. What I shall attempt to do will be to show a side of Philippine life which most Ameri cans in this country know nothing about.” EVA HIGGINS INJURED BY UPSETTING OF BUGGY Eva Higgins, a Sophomore in the University, was injured last week when thrown from a buggy upset by one of the hordes, which had stum bled.
