17 DEGREES WON ATNATONAL U Summer Session Results Made Known by Trustees’ - Secretary. Beventeen law degrees were earned by 15 National University students dur- ing the recent Summer sessions, it was made known in official announcements by John L. Cassin, secretary of the university board of trustees, last night following the final compilation of academic credits. Two of the group, William Orlando Skeels. assistant clerk to the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, and Angel Tomas Correa, graduate stu- dents, completed academic work re- quired for both the master of laws and the master of patent law degrees. The other 13 degree winners an- nounced by Mr. Cassin were: andidates for bachelor of laws— Ralph D. Brown, Keith Marshall Davis, Hector Gonzales, Arthur C. Jarvis, Glenn Fairchild _Murphy, Ralph Maurice Peitzman, Thomas L. Miller, Louis Rothstein, Harry C. Shriver and Sidney B. Hills. Candidates for master of laws—Jack Irwin Resnicoff, Ely Joel Treger and Guy Anderson. These 15 graduates will receive their respective degrees at National's June commencement next Spring, in accord- ance with the institution’s policy with | regard to Summer work. At the same time, Mr. Skeels will receive his bachelor of laws degree as of June 13, the date he became eligible for it at the university. Gore Temporarily Quits. Contrary to a previous announce- ment and his own earlier intentions, former Senator Thomas P. Gore, nominee to the United States Senate from Oklahoma, will not occupy his customary place on National's facultg, this term. Mr. Gore, who was to con: tinue his lectures on English legal his- tory which were so popular last year, has found that his political campaign obligations will occupy too much of his time during the Fall term period to permit him to carry on his class room duties. Mr. Gore has advised uni- versity officials, however, that he hopes to be able to return to the faculty fo® the Winter term, which opens January 2. Meanwhile Dr. Charles F. Carusi, chancellor of National, is considering new appointees to fill the vacancy. Otcober 15 was set yesterday as the final enrollment day for new students this term. Officially, registrations were closed with the opening of the sixt: second Fall term a week ago last night, but officials of both the School of Law and the School of Economics and Gov- ernment declared they would admit students through the first part of this month. The courses were planned to permit latecomers to make up lost work with comparative ease. After October 15, however, they are con- vinced the burden of overtaking the work already covered would entail too great a risk of failure. 5 Prof. P. H. Marshall is offering a new elective course this year in com- parative municipal government. Prof. Marshall's elective last year proved popular and the university is stressing the importance of the field embraced in his new course. Flournoy Honored. Prof. Richard Flournoy of the grad uate faculty was co-editor with Prof. Manley O. Hudson of Harvard Uni- versity of a collection of nationality laws of various nations which was pub- lished recently by the Oxford Press under the auspices of the Carnegie Endowment. for International Peace.

Prof. Howard S. le Roy, instructor - in international claims and protection at National, was a member of a Draft- ing Committee which formulated the views of the American section of the International Committee in Wireless Telegraphy on the agenda for the Fourth International Juridical Congress on Radio Communication. The con- gress was in session at Liege, Belgtum.

VIENNA (Special) —Engagement gifts come high and are not to be taken too lightly, it would seem, at least in Vien- na. A Vienna judge’s decisiofi has just settled that. He decided that hereafter the grieved husband has full claim to ail gifts he may have bestowed upon his wife before their,marriage.if, after the ceremony, the husband is granted a divorce because his wife proved un- faithful. Under his decision the first woman #0 affected appeared in the court room and heaped before the judge's bench all the touching trinklets she had receiced, and the husband, gathering them up, walked out, not only a free man, after his divoree, but with all his presents. Vienna Judge ‘ | thirteenth academic year last Wednes- THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €., OCTOBER 5, Experiment Designed To Modernize Homes On Installment Plan By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, October 4—The New York metropolitan area has been selected for an experiment in home modernizing, with pay- ment on the installment plan. Under a program announced today by Sears, Rocbuck & Co., the activities of its home con- struction division, hitherto con- fined to th» erection of new homes, will be extended to the betterment of homes already built. The home owner may have a new heating plant, added rooms, porches, new plumbing fixtures | | or any other feature which would make the home more livable and meet the cost of the work over a period of months. Expansion is contemplated, with a 25-mile area around Cincinnati, Ohio, as the second region slated to receive the new service. SPEGAL COURSES AREADDEDTO.G.U Subjects of Interest in Inter- national Affairs Will Be Covered. Four special courses on matters of present day importance in international affairs have been added to the cur- riculum of the Georgetown University School of Affairs which began its day with substantial enrollments in both the morning and late afterncon departments. i Two of the courses, those dealing with the League of Nations and the United States and with the treaty making_powers of the United States have already began. The other two courses are adapted to studies of the World Court and codification of inter- national law, and the status of neu- trality in view of recent developments. These will be given in the second se- mester, starting February 1 The first two courses will be given in connection with the seminars on the foreign relation of the United States and the second two in connection with the seminars on international law. All four of the courses will be under the direction of Dr. James Brown Scott. whose associate will be Dr. Thomas H. Healy. Round Table Discussions. Dr. Scott is one of the most immi- nent’ authorities on the World Court and the foreign relations of the United | States. Within the past few weeks, he was nominated by 10 different nations to a place as judge on the World Court and in the fleld of codification of inter- national law he probably has been more prominent than any other Amer- | ican. His associated, Dr. Healy, formerly was professor of international law in the Academy of International Law at The Hague and is also associate pro- fessor of that subject at the School of Foreign Service in addition to being the assistant dean. In order to produce the best results and promote research and independent | thinking, the subjects in these four | courses will be handled as round table | discussions, backed up by research work on the outside. Previous studies in international law and foreign relations | are required of candidates. The department of arts and sciences | will observe its recent reopening with academic exercises the morning of | October 13 at which Rev. R. Rush| Rankin, 8. J., dean of the college, will | award scholastic prizes to undergrad- uates for work done during the past year. Dr. W. Coleman Nevils, 8. J., president of the university, will address the student body. The day will begin with two masses of the Holy Ghost, one for freshmen and the other for upper classmen. | These services will be followed by ex- | ercises in Gaston Hall. Faculty Changes Made.
