ANOTHER ‘PEAK YEAR' ENJOYED BY INDIANA U. 12,449 Students Registered During 1930; Direct Aid Given 605,209. til Timet Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Dec. 31. With 605,209 persons directly aided, and with 12,449 students registered during the year, Indiana university has reached another peak in its 106 years of service to the state. Check of the enrollment records shows that the institution had 198 more students this year than last yqar, in spite of the fact that 501 students had to be turned away from the school of medicine because of insufficient room and teaching facilities. An unusually heavy summer session enrollment for 1930 far offsets the slight decrease in enrollment for the present semester and the close of the 1930-31 school year probably will see new enrollment records set. On the campus during the last year have been 5,788 different students. This includes the campus at Bloomington and the medical center at Indianapolis. In addition, 6,661 students took home study and correspondence extension courses during the year now closing. Health Work Important Among the university’s direct service agencies, perhaps none was more important to the state than its health and hospitalization service for 58,587 persons. This number included 10,725 in Long, Riley and Coleman state hospitals, part of the I. U. medical center at Indianapolis. The health and hospitalization list also included 5,843 patients in the dental clinic, 4,150 cases under care of the social service department, and 37.869 persons served in nineteen counties of the state by the public health nursing campaign conducted in co-operation with the extension division. The extension division’s public welfare service had on its rolls for the year 388,962 persons. The division furnished aid to 34,662 parent-teachers over the state, 27,000 persons engaged in club study programs, 50,300 individuals engaged in state-wide contests and discussion programs of an educational nature, 25,000 who heard extension lecturers on educational subjects, and 252,000 who subscribed to the university’s program of visual education through use of moving picture films, lantern slides, and poster displays. Thousands See Exhibits Educational exhibits presented by the university at the state fair and elsewhere drew attendances conservatively estimated at 150,000. In the field of business research, the records show that 4,700 business firms and individuals throughout the state received help from the bureau of business research, which is a division of the school of commerce and finance. Another division of the uniaity’s direct service which proved of direct commercial value to Indiana was that of Indiara university geologists. In the routine of the year's business they had for analysis and report 2,611 different specimens of Indiana minerals. The bureau of science service had up for solution during the year 183 different scientific problems in the fields of chemistry, geology and physics. The university’s graduate school had 901 different students engaged during the year in research work and granted 161 degrees for satisfactory completion of research studies.

CHARACTER BUILDING IS AIM AT HIBBEN SCHOOL "Fairy Tale” Atmosphere Spurs Little Pupils’ Interest, The Hibben school, 5237 Pleasant Run parkway, Helene Hibben, director, in its thirteen years of existence, has made an intensive study of children from 3 to 6 years of age. In all its branches of work with childhood, building of character has been its goal. The school building, though of recent construction, has a quaint "fairy tale” atmosphere that appeals to children, who love the joyous reds and sunny yellows of its draperies. Every room sparkles with color and brilliant sunlight from tall studio windows. There are no restrictions on books and equipment used and the greatest of care and study is given to the selection, to avoid conflict later with public school work. Many of the toys are built to patterns worked out by Miss Hibben during the summer to reach some particular educational need. Dances, songs and pantomimes used in classes are written with the same end in view. All teachers are under Miss Hibben’s personal supervision, and each child is given individual study and attention to develop the best character. Using motors of only 8horse power, German experimenters have flown tailless airplanes at less than usual speeds and descended at sharper angles than possible with swift craft.

BALL COLLEGE HAS SUCCESSFUL YEAR

Classes Interchange With Hospital Effected by . School in 1930. One of the outstanding educational developments at Ball State Teachers’ college in 1930 was the arrangement between the college and Ball Memorial hospital, which adjoins the campus, to have an interchange of classes between the two institutions. Student nurses have been enrolled in classes in anatomy, chemistry and psychology at the college. Graduate nurses and doctors of the medical staff at the hospital have had charge of the other courses.

Art, education, commerce and English have been discussed from the standpoint of teaching each subject in the schools.

It provides a demonstration school where certain types of learning situations are set up at the request of the theory teacher and the college student. Student teachers have an opportunity of observing experts teach. The school also serves as an experimental school or clinic where new ways of working may be tested in an ideal schoolroom situation.
