Despite rumors to the contrary, Japanese
students admitted to the university this fall
number only 25, it was revealed yesterday by
G. W. Rosenlof, registrar.
Humors had it that approximately 300
Japanese-American students were expected to
attend school here this fall. These reports
were false as Rosenlof: stated that the
number of new ones entering UN for the
1942-43 term exceds by only a few the 11
attending Nebraska last year.
There is no need for any kind of a scare
concerning these students, Rosenlof cautioned.
All are citizens of the United States, and must
give sufficient evidence of loyalty to their
country. None are admitted unless carefully
checked and approved by the proper govern
ment officials thru the War Relocation Coun
cil, a quasi-public agency set up to supervise
the relocation of Japanese-Americans desiring
to complete their education.
