IMPROVEMENTS jIARK butler u. IN LAST YEAR College of Education Is Wrought to Campus ft in 1933. liar of 1933 witnessed several outstanding advancements in the history of progress of Butler university. Chief among them was the removal *)f the location of the Butler college of education, formerly located at Twenty-third and Alabama streets, to the Fairview campus, the granting of membership in *he American Association of University Women, and the installation of a printing plant in the Arthur Jordan Memorial hall. Despite the fact that a great decrease in college enrollment was predicted for the year, Butler university's registration fell only slightly below the regular enrollment. The university endowment enjoyed gifts amounting to $16(5,000 through the wills of Jacob Lockhart, Arthur C. Newby, Miss Estella Birchard Turner and an anonymous donor. Perhaps the greatest individual asset to the university was the removal of Teachers’ College to the Fairview campus. This move brought about the long sought for unification of the three colleges of the university under one distinct regime. Includes Music School Following this adjustment the university struck up a closer affiliation with the Arthur Jordan Conservatory of Music, an affiliated school, in an attempt to provide more opportunities for students of both institutions. The relationship was attained by an exchange of professors. Several members of the musical school staff were appointed to instruct students on the Fairview campus while Butler faculty members were enlisted to teach academic subjects at the conservatory. The increase in facilities for the education of women students, which has taken place on the Butler campus recently, promoted Butler's acceptance into the Association of University Women which was granted last June. Prior to this time Butler graduates had been recognized only as associate members of the organization. This fall tew the inauguration of still more ffc.pilities for women in the depart-* ra'ent of physical education. Sports on Increase In the sports world Butler scored a hit last March when the first of the Butler indoor relays was held in the fieldhouse. Because of the huge success of the first relay, the event will be an annual one and is predicted to become the most outstanding indoor relay in the collegiate world. The Butler Bulldogs also added glory when they won the Missouri Valley basketball championship. Asa means of providing more facilities for students studying journalism, anew type and mechanical laboratory has been set up in the basement of the Arthur Jordan hall. The laboratory is known as the University Press. The Collegian, student newspaper; MSS, student literary magazine; The Student Directory, and other campus publications are printed here. The press unit is used as a class laboratory by the journalism pepartment. New Members on Board During the year the Butler board of directors added three names to the directorate. The new members are Judge Robert C. Baltzell. Earl Crawford, and Judge John A. Titsworth. A.side from academic achieve--1 ments. the university has also taken an active part in relief work during the year. The Butler university Mothers’ Council was formed in May for the purpose of raising funds with which to aid needy Butler students. More than 10,000 articles of clothing and 5.000 cans of foodstuffs were contributed by the student body as a result of the Christmas cheer campaign held at the university last week. PH, . tCY COLLEGE INi .EASE REPORTED F*eshman Class Roll Is Boosted 20 Per Cent. The Indianapolis College of Pharmacy has a 20 per cent increase in freshmen enrollment this year. This class also has established a unique record, not a single member has withdrawn since starting in September. The following reasons are assighed for this: The course of study is interesting and practical and young men are convinced that this is an uncrowded profession, with many opportunities for those who are graduated. Not only will a graduate be qualified to act as a registered pharmawist in a retail store, but he also is ’grained for work in manufacturing houses and as a chemist There [also are a number of government L positions for which he alone is I qualified.

New Courses Offered at Extension Center

Indiana U. Division to Open New Semester in February. With 1.246 students enrolled, Indiana university extension center in Indianapolis reports an increase in attendance over that of the fall semester of last year, with every indication that February enrollments also will be higher, according to those in charge of the work. Ninety-five new classes will begin Feb. 5 when the second semester starts and emphasis will be placed upon supplying the needs of midyear graduates of high schools so that they can secure a full freshman program of study. Afternoon classes, inaugurated during the last two years, have proved popular and offer ample opportunities for freshmen. The Indianapolis center has placed in effect the new two-year program, which is designed to give a maximum of instruction in a relatively short time. This program is open to any high school gradutate, regardless of whether he meets the university entrance requirements. It emphasizes the development of a basis for appreciating the arts, as well as sufficient understanding of the social and physical sciences to aid the individual to orient himself in the modern world. New Courses Given Graduate nurses are enabled, by means of the new nursing education program, to take courses leading to a bachelor of science degree in education. Courses in English, education and the physical sciences are included in this course. Modern Continental novelists, interior decoration, motion pictures in foreign lands and cultures, and great philosophers and their con-

Day Sessions Will Be Given at Law School

Lincoln College, Located Downtown, to Add New Classes. To meet the increased demand for a two-year day law course, the Lincoln College of Indiana announces that beginning Feb. 1 the school | will offer a two-year day law course j to all students who can meet the entrance requirements. This new course will be offered in addition to the regular evening j courses now being offered by the Lincoln College of Indiana. This ; school is located conveniently op- ! posite the courthouse in the Union j Title building. The student has many advantages 1 in attending this law school. The classroom equipment is modern, and the law library is open for the free use of the students from 8 a. m. to 8 p. m. The classroom chairs are spacious and are upholstered in leather. The school and its method of instruction has been accepted with much enthusiasm and the faculty is much pleased with the resales obtained. This school uses the combined instruction of case, text and lectures, which has proved very advantageous for a short-term course. It has been demonstrated that if a student is given the principle of law, he readily can adapt these principles toward the analysis of a case, and since this is supplemented by lectures by the professor who applies these principles to the Indiana law, then this enables the students to more readily understand and remember the law. Whereas the course may be covered in two years and a L.L.B. degree awarded to successful students, it must be borne in mind that this course is equivalent to courses offered in other schools that require three years to cover. The school offers instruction upon every subject upon which the applicant is examined for admission to the bar. The following is a list of new instructors added to the faculty: Charles H. Heaton, Edward F.! New-, Merle Wall, F. D. McCurdy, Martin Conrad, Russell Dean, Thom- .

.THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

I. U. REPORTS BOOST IN FALL TERMSTUDENTS Enrollment Figure Is Near All-Time Record in Last Four Months. By Timet Special BLOOMINGTON. Dec. 30.—One of the few American institutions of higher learning to show an increase in enrollment this fall, Indiana university has entered upon the new school year with prospects for nearrecord service in 1934. In spite of the depression, enrollment for residence study increased 203 students in September and almost reached the all-time high record of 1931 for students on the campus. Extension enrollment likewise went up. It jumped 52 per cent in the university’s new East Chicago center as compared with enrollment of the previous year, it appears now that last year’s total enrollment for all terms of 11,051 different students, including 5,627 in residence and 5,424 in extension courses, is practically certain to be increased. While the Indiana student body on the campus is 92 per cent Hoosier, out-of-state drawing power has increased over last year. Thirtyone states and six foreign countries are represented with 340 students, as compared with 289 last year at this time. Illinois, New York and Ohio lead in the order named in numbers of students here this fall. Cost Reduction Cited Growth in enrollment generally is attributed to reduced costs, cooperative living projects and anew, two-year elective course taking effect last fall. Ninety-three students are enrolled in the two-year course at present. They almost have complete freedom in choice of subjects, may transfer at any time they wish to a four-year course with credit for work done, and will receive a certificate at the end of two years if their work is satisfactory. Fees here were cut about 11 per cent for most students last fall. A co-operative dining club was organized, where 250 students are serving themselves and obtaining board at the rate of $2.10 a week. Four-H clubhouses were opened facing the campus for boys and girls. Bringing with them from home certain canned goods and other staples and putting these into a common commissary, 4-H Club cooperative house members are getting the best of board and room at a cash cost of sls per month. Room Rents Cut Private rooming house proprietors here last fall cut their rents to as low as $1 a week per student where two students live in one room. Twenty-one national fraternities reduced house bills 15 per cent, while seventeen national sororities made a 14 per cent cut. The University Bookstore continued its 10 per cent discount and in addition enlarged its used book department to give students more complete advantage of an exchange of books. Faculty members have co-operated by selecting textbooks at low prices, wherever possible. In one department a saving of 50 per cent from last year’s prices was effected in the books and supplies of a course attracting hundreds of students. While enrollment grew on the campus, the university’s direct services maintained a high pace in spite of budget cuts. The university’s three state hospitals at Indianapolis operated at maximum capacity and faced long waiting lists most of the year, as is usually the case during a depression. Other direct services in adult education, visual education, club programs, science and social ana economic relief co-opera-tion were extended widely. The result is that the university’s teaching, direct service and research are estimated to have reached nearly one million persons within the year. Opening of the university's new $250,000 dental school building at Indianapolis last fall was hailed as a forward step for 1933-34. Thief Steals Watchman’s Gun William Shute, Negro, 1844 South Keystone avenue, night watchman at the Excelsior Company, 1502 South Keystone avenue, today was without his revolver. Last night, before starting his rounds, he laid his revolver on a desk. When he returned, he found a thief had stolen it.

A New Year’s Greeting to the Citizens of Indiana from PURDUE UNIVERSITY 1933-34 The closing year has been the most productive in services rendered for the people of Indiana in the long and noteworthy history of Purdue University. Upwards of 5,000 different persons received instruction in Agriculture, Home Economics, Civil, Chemical, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Pharmacy, Industrial Education and Physical Education. Approximately 2,500,000 Indiana citizens w’ere given direct aid through the extension services of the institution. More than 21,000 other persons have come to Purdue during the year, seeking the aid extended in the numerous conferences and short courses conducted on the campus. These and many other services have made the institution and the ideals for which it stands a vital factor in the life and progress of our great state. Purdue University belongs to you, the people of Indiana. Its efforts in 1934 will be directed toward surpassing if possible the value and scope of the worthwhile work accomplished during the closing year. “As Purdue goes forward so the State goes forward.” PURDUE UNIVERSITY Lafayette, Indiana Write Registrar for Catalog.

Business Gains Seen by Central College Chief

School Increase Recorded Over 1932 Since Aug. 1. Central Business college reports a healthy improvement since Aug. 1 over the same period in 1932. Not only has the school’s enrollment shown quite an increase during this time, but the demand upon its employment department for young men and women definitely prepared for business positions has been more active. According to a statement by Fred W. Case, principal, still greater improvement is expected in 1934. He said: “We’re just well pleased with the way conditions have come along in our business in recent months. It

has been our pleasure and privilege to assist a great many graduates of the school, both experienced and inexperienced, in making desirable connections. According to reports we hear and read regarding publicity and sales plans of many large business organizations, they undoubtedly are anticipating a marked improvement in business in 1934. If their deductions are right, it is only reasonable to expect a general picking up, which will mean, of course, a greater demand for young people who may prepare for business positions.” Central is the Indiana Business College of Indianapolis. The other nine schools of the organization, according to Mr. Case, have enjoyed a similar increase in business in recent months.

RAPID PROGRESS IS RECORDED AT CONSERVATORY 1933 Is Banner Year for Arthur Jordan Music Organization. Nineteen thirty-three has been marked by unusual progress at the j Arthur Jordan Conservatory- Outstanding among the improvements which have been made include the reorganization of the conservatory as a non-profit corporation and a closer affiliation and relationship with Butler university. Members of the board of trustees last spring took action changing the conservatory from a profit-making institution to one devoted unselfishly to the promotion of culture and cultural pursuits in Indianapolis and out over the state. Expansion of the conservatory staff and offerings have been noted during 1933. Fourteen new instructors were added last summer, bringing the faculty total of the school to sixty-six. This figure, plus the large enrollment which the conservatory enjoys, makes the institution the" largest music school in the state. There are approximately 600 persons taking work in the conservatory at the present time. Three new degrees have been made available to conservatory students through the closer affiliation. Students now may work toward the bachelor of arts degree in liberal arts, the bachelor of dramatic arts degree and the master of music de-
