tributed parts of the state under the auspices of Mr. Ray Turner and 

 his staff. These young people, for the most part of High School ages, 

 are prize winners in Boys' and Girls' Club projects. As a reward for 

 their achievements they are given a week's outing on the campus where 

 they are furnished a chosen program. No one can question the value 

 of these experiences to boys and girls just at the threshold of life. To 

 many of them it will be a revelation of unforseen possibilities in life. 



It may be of interest to append to this report a tabulation of figures 

 bearing upon our enrollment.

It is a matter of satisfaction that we have had the largest attendance 

 in our history of students who do not belong to the regular student body. 

 Ten states besides Michigan have been represented in our student body 

 this summer ; five from Illinois, six from Ohio, two from Wisconsin, three 

 from West Virginia, five from Pennsylvania and one each from^Nebraska, 

 Indiana, Kansas, Mississippi and Delaware. In addition we have one 

 from London, England, two from Ontario, Canada and one from Cairo, 

 Egj'pt. 



Efforts have been put forth by the Faculty to make the stay of the 

 students as pleasant as possible. Two College parties were held which 

 were attended by students and members of the Faculty. An enjoyable 

 social occasion was had each time. 



A new departure was made in holding a weekly Convocation. One 

 hour was set aside for this purpose at which time all class exercises were 

 discontinued and students and teachers attended a program consisting 

 of music and a short address. 



Finally, the Summer School administration brought to the campus 

 on July 'l7th and 18th the Coffer^Miller Players who presented two eve- 

 ning performances. Monday — ^Androcles and the Lion, and on Tuesday, 

 The Good-Natured Man. The work of this company was considered by 

 all in attendance as of very high grade. It is to be hoped that enter- 

 tainment of this superior type may be had each season as a part of 

 our Summer program. 



I wish to call attention to courses given in the second six weeks of 

 the Summer. No plans had been authorized for a second session, but 

 in the course of the first six weeks a few groups of students asked to 

 have certain subjects offered for their benefit.
