ASSEMBLYTODAY
Current Summer Session Shows Registration of Six Hundred Graduate Students, Creating Challenging Situation as Well as Vast Educational Opportunity
BY ROCKWELL D. HUNT Dean of the Graduate School
The 1926 Summer Session has afforded a new demonstration of the need in Los Angeles for a great, thoroughly equipped Graduate School as a logical and consistent culmination of the marvelous educational facilities of the Great Southwest.
During the six-weeks’ period closing this week no fewer than 600 graduates have been actually registered in the University of Southern California. These represent approximately 50 colleges and universities from many states and several foreign countries. Of these graduates not a few already hold masters’ degrees, and a small “	^number have the coveted Ph.D.

PRESIDENT BACK FROM LONG TRIP
After a month’s combination business and pleasure trip to the east coast, Dr. R. B, von KleinSmid, president of the University of Southern California, arrived back at his desk yesterday.

student body are faculty members from numerous colleges, superintendents of schools, principals, and instructors of all ranks and grades.
A great Graduate School, such as befits this community—and which is immediately demanded —calls for full equipment and ample facilities to conduct qualified candidates to the Doctor of Philosophy degree in any of at least
a dozen departments. This calls for a great, fully-appointed University Library building, which should be a dominating feature of the campus; for numerous additions of outstanding specialists and inspiring teachers and leaders in research; for a series of free fellowships and scholarships, to insure a nucleus of exceptional students; and for more generous productive endowments.
PROGRESS GREAT Much progress has been made since the Graduate School of U. S. C. was established in 1920, and especially since it became an “all-University” body in 1924. At present graduate work is being done not only in the field of Arts and Sciences, but also (Continued on Page Two)

PROF. McCONATHY SPEAKS THURSDAY
The final Thursday lecture will be given at 4 p. m. day after tomorrow by Professor Osbourne McConathy, the music editor for Silver, Burdette and Company of Newark, New Jersey, and visiting professor in the Department of Music. Professor McConathy, who is well known to the student body by reason of leading the singling in the assemblies, will talk on “Teaching Music in Public Schools,” a theme which contains much of interest for the elementary and high school teacher. The lecture will be given in Hoose Hall, Room 206.
j the Old College.
Those interested in educational art work will have the opportunity of seeing a logical arrangement of a possible course in design, while artists will see interesting applications of color design in articles of every-day use, such as scarfs, table runners, cushions, handkerchiefs, negligees, wall-hangings and other forms. The general lover of beauty is certain to enjoy the exhibit for its freshnees and novelty.
COVER WIDE FIELD In the short period of the Summer Session the students in the design classes under Miss Griswold have studied the principles of composition, first in line, then in dark-and-light, and finally in color. In order not to stop with “paper design,” each problem was carried through into actual material of some sort, resulting in textiles in wood-block, batik and tied-and-dyed, and tiles in colored cement.
