It was alao announced this week that first summer session gradea are aow available at Ar cher House, Students may pick up their marks there at any time during regular Heat- Recordina Device Installed In Planetarium A device that keeps a con tin uous record of the intensity of the sunlight in Chapel Hill has been installed in the Morehead Plane tarium of the University. Visitors who pass through one of the basement exhibition rooms can see written out on a paper record the increase of sunlight from sunrise to "noon and the de cline to sunset with interesting interruptions as clouds block off the direct light of the sun. Beginners in the accounting profession with good training are making twice the salaries they did five years ago, and there is a opportunity in this field, particu larly in government agencies and institutions. Such is the considered opinion of Dr. David M. Beights, head cf the Accounting Department at Florida State University, who is in charge of a five-week Insti tute in Certified Accounting Prob lems that opened at the Universi ty this week for the benefit of those wishing to prepare for the CPA examination. "The increased controls due to the war effort are creating an in creased demand for well trained accountants." said Dr. Beights. "While the supply is catching up with the demand for account ants in general, there is still a great lack of men in the top-flight brackets, where the salaries range from $10,000 to $12,000 and much more in many cases," he said. Dr. Beights said the tendency of colleges and universities is to put greater emphasis on profes sional training for the CPA certi ficate. More attention is being given to economics, statistics, fi nance and law. The man with a bachelor's degree, plus the CPA certificate, can usually demand a much higher salary than one with a master's degree without a CPA certificate, other things be ing equal, he said. "Many of the leading universi ties, recognizina the need for broader and more thorough train ir.g for accountants, are adjusting their curricula accordingly. and some are adding a fifth year in graduate and professional train ing," Dr. Beights said. The enrollment in accounting students rose rapidly after World War IL but is leveling off now. he added. "The demands on ac- Enrollment To Be High For .950-57 Director of Admissions Roy Armstrong indicated that there would be 7000 to 7500 students en oiled in the Unive-.sity for the school yetr starting in Sep- leiTioer, or about tne same as last year's enrollment. Dean Armstrong pointed out that there would be fewer vete rons this year, but still a large number of students. The policy of admitting not more than 15 out-of-state students in any term had to he continued because of tl:- large number of applications and the housing shortage.
