Rolls Include Residents of 29 States and One Foreign Nation
The University of Miami is rapidly changing its scholastic complexion, as shown by statistics compiled by the Registrar’s office this week. The general opinion that most of the students come here from outside the state of Florida has been proved inaccurate. More than half of our student-body hails from the Greater Miami area. Incomplete statistics show the following:
Miami Metropolitan area, 326. Florida (outside Miami), 37; New York, 27; Pennsylvania, 18; Massachusetts, 18; Illinois, 10; Georgia, 8; New Jersey, 7; Wisconsin, 7; Kentucky, 6; Ohio, 6; Connecticut, 5; Tennessee, 5; Missouri, 4; New Hampshire, Minnesota, Washington, D. C., Indiana, and West Vjrginia, 3 each; Mississippi, 2; Michigan, 2; and Virginia, Alabama, South Carolina, Texas, Arkansas, California, Maine, Louisiana, Rhode Island, and Cuba, 1 each. Twenty-nine states and one foreign country are represented.
Latest enrollment figures now reveal a full time student body of 650, with approximately 400 students registered in the late afternoon, night* and other extension classes, a substantial increase over similar statistics of the past year.
The number of Miami students has grown much in numbers and percentage of the total each year, and this trend should show the pepole of Miami why they should lend their whole-hearted assistance to the university. It is in truth their school.
International Relations Club Guests of Freeman
About twenty members of the International Relations Club were the guests Saturday afternoon of Mr. Alden Freeman at Casa Casa-urina, his home on Miami Beach. Mr. Freeman spoke to his visitors about current political problems, and showed them his interesting and unusual home, and his collection of curios and valuable objects from all parts of the world. He was made an honorary member of the club.
Mr. Freeman was guest speaker at the meeting of the club here at the university on Wednesday night. He addressed the gathering on the subject of his beloved republic, Haiti.
The International Relations Club held election of officers immediately after Mr. Freeman’s address.
Second Symphony Concert Will Be Next Tuesday Eve
Leonard Rose, Cellist, Will Be Guest Artist of Junior Group
The Junior Symphony orchestra will feature the second of its series of concerts in the recital hall of the downtown university building next Tuesday night at 8 o’clock. Leonard Rose, cellist, will be the guest artist. He is a pupil of Walter Grossman, and gained wide recognition for his appearances on university programs last year.
The Symphony is made up of members of the junior group of the conservatory of Music, and is expected to make many more appearances this year. In addition, the Conservatory of Music will feature an Aeolian chorus, student quartets, a choir of mixed voices, lecture recitals by Arthur Moor, and the well known Faculty Trio, composed of Hannah Spiro Asher, piano, Albert Foster, violin, and Walter Grossman, cello. All of these attractions will be made available to music lovers of Miami through the University Conservatory throughout the school year.
COMMITTEE PLANS BENEFIT MUSICALE
Hurricanes Will Try To Keep Up No-Loss Record
U. of M. May Experience Some Trouble In Holding Moccasin Backs
University Radio Studio T o Resume Broadcasting Soon
“Classroom of the Air” To Function Half Hour Each Day
The Library committee plans to give an elaborate musicale in the near future in order to raise funds necessary to add many needed books to the university library. The best artists in school here will be obtained for the benefit.
The committee is under the direction of Mrs. Rosborough, and Jane Wardlow is chairman. The price of admission will be only 25 cents, and students are asked to patronize the musicale in order to make possible the purchase of as fany new volumes as possible.
It is announced that the University of Miami library is practically public, as anyone, whether a student here or not, may avail themselves of its reference and study facilities.
Architects Build New Room On Third Floor
The University of Miami will begin its second year of broadcasting on next Monday, November 2nd. Station W. I. O. D. has arranged for remote control of the programs and the studio will be located in Room 286. New equipment is being installed.
A Broadcast, to be known as the “Classroom of the Air”, will be from 1:30 to 2:00 p. m. daily and will have the following features:
2 days per week (Tues. and Thurs.) Musical Appreciation — a program for the Public Schools. 1 day per week (Sat.) Conservatory program. 1 day (Fri.) on alternate weeks—a student program. Other days—faculty speakers.
The faculty programs will be divided into two fifteen minute divisions, made necessary by the “station identification break”. Botany will be presented on alternate weeks, all other departments will be presented about once a month.
Gilbert Bromaghim will have charge of the staff of six announcers, and Miss Marguerite Sweat will act as the secretary for the committee and will prepare all continuity.
The classroom of the air will be of real service to the community and at the same time will increase good will toward the University.
Members of the Radio Committee are: Don Henshaw, Chairman; Franklin Harris, Bertha Foster, G. E. Bromaghim, Marguerite Sweat, Secretary.
Men in the Dept, of Architecture have temporarily turned from drawing boards to mortise boards, from charettes to saws. The school has inaugurated a new class, instruction in clay modelling, to be taught as a separate division. It will require a lot of room, and this the students are providing now by building a classroom on the third floor.
Mr. Skinner and Mr. Smith are in charge of the construction of the new lab, and Marshall Wright and Jake Laing are chief carpenters. The men are doing all the work themselves after school hours. Lumber and other materials were donated by the Drake, Fisher, Ramsey, and Schilling and Co. lumber yards.
University Deans Are Recovering From Illness
The university faculty has been seriously crippled this week by the illness of two of the Deans. Dean Rasco of the Law School has been in serious condition at his home, having had an attack of heart disease. When this went to press he was reported resting easily and slowly recovering.
Dean John T. Holdsworth, of the School of Business Administration, was removed to Jackson Memorial Hospital from his home, because of a sudden attack of influenza which affected his throat. His physician states that he will be dismissed from the hospital and will resume his classes in a few days.
Tonight, under the Klieg lights at Moore Park, the scrapping University of Miami Hurricanes will trot on the field determined to keep the Southern Moccasins’ “no win over Miami” record as before.
Four times has the Lakeland team invaded Miami’s stronghold, but the nearest they can claim to a Southern victory is a 13-13 tie in 1929, when the Hurricanes put a stop to the conference championship ambitions of one of the strongest teams ever to journey forth from the up-state institution.
However, this year’s edition is claimed to be even superior, and is further strengthened by the use of freshmen in the varsity lineup. Southern College has obtained a temporary leave of absence from the S. I..A.A. due to a lack of material among upper classmen.
Miami’s opponents tonight will present a hefty line backed up by two scintillating backs, Melton and Bunting. Fans will have no trouble remembering these two from past performances on a Miami gridiron. Football enthusiasts will also have a chance to watch a classy tackle in action, “Casey” Cason, 185 pound freshman, who starred here last winter in a game between a picked team of Florida All-Stars and the championship White Plains, N. Y., high school. Cason has been performing wonders in the Moccasin line this year, and was an important factor in Southern's defeats of Bowdon and the University of Florida “B” team. The former lost a hard played game, 7-0, and the latter were taken into camp, 21-0.
Coach McCann has been driving the Hurricanes hard throughout the week on Southern plays, and expects to show a strong defense for anything the Lakelanders have to offer tonight. Joe Cronin, whose fine playing .stood out in last week’s game, will probably not start due to an unhealed gash over his eye. Bill Fenwick, who has been doing nice defensive work at center, has been switched back to his end post and will hold down that position in the opening lineup, while Lee is the probable choice for the other wingman. At tackles, Coach McCann will start Ed Graczyk and Frank Puglisi, with Dansky and Siler at guards, and Kozlowski as pivot man. Bob Downes, who showed consistent ability at quarter against Rollins, may get the call at the same post tonight. In that case Luke Crowe and Stan Phillips will handle the halfback assignments, with either Bill L’ltal-ien or Lou Hansen at full.
It was also announced yesterday by Head Coach McCann and President Ashe that the University of Miami would include freshmen football men in its varsity lineups in the future, with the possible exception of the Western Kentucky and Erskine games. This notice
