lions involved in securing an edu

L
Director Asks Advisers to
Inform Students on
Music Courses.
In an effort to interest students
of I he various colleges in courses
in the School of Music. Howard
Kirkpatrick. director, has issued
letters to all university deans, ad
visers and faculty.
"1 am of the opinion," stated
Director Kirkpatrick, "that one
rea.'ion more students do not avail
themselves of the various musical
organizations in the university is
that in many cases they are not
aware that courses are offered in
music for which they are eligible."
He further called attention to
the fart that students from the
different colleges need pay no
extra fee for musical courses and
that thev will receive credit for
sueh courses as elective.

IF SALES MOUNT
Collegiate Digest Would
Bring Nation's News
To Sunday Paper.
Announcement that Collegiate

that the Nebraskan will be avail

faculty members for the entire
year at the price of one dollar If
they take advantage of the offer

price." Funk stated, "is as low as
has ever been offered to university

tion rate will be boosted to $1.50."
A Valuable Addition.
If the rotrogravure section Is
added to the Sunday odition of the
Nebraskan, the size of the paper
on that day will be increased from
the usual four page edition to a 16
page publication. Stressing the

ers the very best that we could in
national collegiate news and pic
tures, an dat the same time im
prove our paper greatly."

The W. A. A. party was to have

O While this figure exceeds that
of the first day of registration
for last year, which was 1,290, lt Is
not official. Ralph Hallocks, as
sistant photographer, computed
this number from the automatic
counter on his camera. The j
photographing of students is the
final step in the registration
process, giving the cameraman a
good opportunity to make an ac
curate estimate.
The official count of t first
day of registration will not be
announced until sometime today
according to Mr. Pike, publicity
manager ior tne university. .Mis
McGahey, the registrar, who was
in the coliseum throughout the
entire day, said that she could not
predict the size of the enrollment
nor compare it to that of former
I years.
Medical Exams Completed.
"There are several reasons why
me registration ts gpipg smoother
than other .years." the registrar
stated. "The principal of these Is
probably the dispatch with which
tne medical exams were com-
pleted this year; since ten days
instead of five were alloted for
these tests, there was no conges
tion wnaiever.
Other changes initiated in the
program this year concern th
psychology tests and photograph
ing. Every student entering the)
university with less than junior
ranic is required to take the psy
chology quizz. Furthermore, all
students, both freshmen and up
perclassmen, are being compelled
to nave ineir pictures taken.
According to Miss McGahey
students are neing askea to keep
tnese signed photographs to com
plete their identification cards..
These pictures should serve for
the student's stay in the univer
sity and should be transferred
from one Identification card to tie
next, the registrar stated.
