NSA Schedules
Annual Congress
To Meet'Aug. 24
University of Illinois has been
selected by the staff of the Na
tional Student Association as the
site of the second annual Student
Congress. Dates of the Congress
are August 24 to September 2.
Final negotiations are now un
derway between NSA's staff and
the University of Illinois admin
istration At Urbana.
It is expected that more than
450 student leaders from colleges
and universities throughout the
country will attend the Congress
to evaluate the progress and poli
cies of NSA for the preceding
year and establish its program and
policies for the following year.
"Illinois was selected because its
facilities are the most adequate,"
said Ted Harris, NSA President.
It was not possible to obtain the
Union Building at Michigan, dorm
space was limited at Minnesota,
and N.Y.U. was not centrally
enough located.
The period of the Congress has
been increased from five to nine
days in order to eliminate sessions
which have run into the Wee hours
of the morning, and to insure ade
quate discussion and full orienta
tion.
The staff is now engaged in
planning the details of the Con
gress, and more specific informa
tion wvill be announced.

Animals Receive
Man's Language
Ecstein Reports
Cincinnati, Ohio -- (ACP) -
"Many animals do understand
words, and, to a degree, in the
same way man does-through sym
bolism," says Dr. Gustav Eck
stein, association professor of
physiology, University of Cincin
nati and noted author and expert
on animal psychology.
"There may be forms of com
munication between living things
that go much farther down the
biological scale than we ever recog
nize or suspect," he declared.
Even bird brains, Dr. Eckstein
believes, are capable of changing
man's words into symbols and
thus understanding them. A dog
definitely can, according to Dr.
Eckstein, and a chimpanzee, con
trary to popular belief, isn't too
far ahead of the (log in this re
spect.
Bids for the high school and edu
cation building (later named
Wardlaw College) were called for
in October, 1930. It was estimated
that the building would cost ap
proximately $300.000.

luncheon, and a ceremony in
which President Leonard Baker
christened the field's flag pole
with a bottle of champagne.
Moves for the building of a
stadium had come several years
before when alumni raised $4,040
to buy 20 acres of land adjoining
the State Fair Grounds.
The Columbia City Council made
possible the beginning of con
struction, and later, funds were
borrowed from the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation. The final
cost of the stadium was $88,000.
In the summer of 1934, the new
municipal stadium was completed,
with a seating capacity of 17,800.
Students were told of its special
features, its unusual position
which eliminated annoying glare,
and its curved playing field which
insured better drainage. They
were informed that rent for its
use would be used to pay the
R.F.C. loan. Parking territory was
promised to be adequate.
There was much anticipation and
a "full house" on tl4at October
day of the dedication when a sta
dium two miles South of the uni
versity replaced Melton Field,
which had become too small for
the Carolina-Clemson classic.
