Freshmen,
Principals
To Confer
Representatives from 212
Nebraska high schools have
registered to attend the
12th annual Principal-Freshman
Conference at the Uni
versity Thursday.
"The 335 advance registra
tions from 212 schools indi
cate that we will have the
largest attendance since the!
conferences began," said John
K. Aronson, director of ad
missions and program coordi
nator. At least 3,000 University
freshmen will meet with their
former principals and teach
ers in afternoon sessions to
exchange views on the stu
dents' adjustment to Univer
sity course work.
Due to a shortage of availa
ble rooms on campus for the
principal-student conferences,
several campus religious cen
ters have agreed to let us use
their facilities, Aronson said.
A special morning seminar
program which was initiated
last year has been expanded
this year as a result of
terest expressed by princi
pals. The seminar programs
in the Nebraska Union are
conducted by University pro
fessors who discuss their own
fields of study as it applies
to freshmen students re
cent graduates from the prin
cipal's schools.
During three sessions, start
ing at 9:30 a.m. in the Ne
braska Union, principals may
attend seminars on advanced
placement, English, mathe
matics, placement in chemis
try, natural sciences, lan
guages and social sciences.

The first Parents Dnv psnp. i
dally designed for several
thousand parents of Univer
sity freshman will be held on
the campus Saturday.
Activities during Parents
Day, which will be sponsored
by the Innocents Society, will
include a general convoca
tion, lunch at various campus
living units and discussion
sessions conducted by faculty
members in the various col
leges. "We are gratified by the
early response of parents to
this new program which takes
the place of a similar event
traditionally held in the fall,"
Skip Sorief, president of In
nocents, said.
"We believe the program
will allow parents to become
more familiar with their son's
or daughters' curriculum, the
University and campus life,"
he noted.
Guest speakers at the Sat
urday morning convocation
will include Dr. A. C. Breck
enridge, vice chancellor;
Kent Neumeister, ASUN pres
ident; and L. W. Chatfield,
associate dean of students.
Music will be provided by
the University brass en
semble and following lunch
in the various living units,
parents will be able to at
tend a number of college
seminars starting at 2 p.m.
Following the general col
lege meetings, the groups
will divide up to attend de
partmental coffee hours with
faculty members.
Seminars and coffee hours
will be conducted by the Col
lege of Agriculture and Home
Economics, College of Arts
and Sciences, College of Busi
ness Administration, College
of Engineering and Architec
ture, and Teachers College.

play the percentages," he
said.
"In 1956, I made predictions
extending the 1965 enrollment
which weren't bad, but not
good enough to be used that
far in advance."
Suppose that in 1935, I was
to have made predictions for
1958," Hoover said. "How
could I know Hitler would in
vade Poland and Russia, that
on Dec. 7, 1941, Japan would
bomb Pearl Harbor, that fol
lowing World War II we
would be Involved in a cold
war with Soviet Russia, that
there would be a nohec action
in Korea, what kind of pros
perity we would nave or tne
increasing number of s t u
dents going on to higher edu
cation."
"That is why projections
that far in the future are
daneerous." he said. "The ac
curacy is constantly threat
ened by these unknowns that
we can't possibly see.
Legislative Sessions
Hoover. Chatfield. and
Breckenridge all agreed that
a vearlv session of the Legis
lature would aid those making
enrollment estimates as it
would place closer together
the time the estimate was
made, and the time it was
for.
Also in charge of registra
tion, which was roundly criti
cized by many students this
semester, Hoover was de
scribed by one student as an
"angel of mercy" as the
slightly-built man passed out
appointment cards to a
mass of first-day enrollees.
Chatfield noted that pulling
cards in some form or anoth
er is still the most common
thing at other universities. He
noted that with the Univer
sity's system, it is more con
venient for the student by not
having to stand in line and
' also makes better use of Icass
space by spreading registra-

Noting that incoming fresh
men do not have to worry at j
all about registration, but only j
have to send in their class I
choices. Chatfield jokingly j
said. "The first time I was!
involved in the Coliseum rati
race. I didn't understand why j
freshman stayed through New 1
Student Week."
Chatfield said the prc-regls- j
tration this semester was an
attempt to find out where!
some of the backlog of classes
was.
"However, not all depart
ments were able to make ad
justments to this," he said.
Supply, Demand
"Our job is to take as much
of the mechanics of registra
tion as possible off the backs
of faculty and students, but
this is hampered by the prob
lem of supply and demand."
Hoover explained.
"We have X supply and are
facing i demand, he said.
"However, Y is greater than
X."
The registrar has no author
ity to extend class sizes one
inch beyond the instructions
of department heads.
"We have no authority at
all to open new sections or
expand existing ones," he
said. Hoover explained that
as soon as the sections start
closing up, the registrar's of
fice informs the department
heads and the department
head must then advise his
office as to the next steps to
be taken, if any.
When asked whether t h e
problem is not enough space
for classes or not enough in
structors to teach them,
Hoover said, "We've been
able to find space so far but
I must qualify it with so far."
'Too Few Teachers'
Chatfield, noting the prob
lem of too few teachers, said,
"One of the reasons is t h a t
we can use available space
more hours of the day and we
can only stretch instructors
so far."
"University faculty mem
bers are In greater demand
now than any of the vears
I've been In education,"
Hoover said. "We're In direct
competition with industry . . . !
and this is largely a problem 1
of more money offered by in-'
dustrles." j
"There is a surprising nu:n-;
ber of dedicated souls who
want to teach." Hoover not
ed, "but not enough of them
to meet our growing de
mands." Hoover praised
many University faculty
members who receive better
offers of money, but who stay
with the University.
Hoover credited Chatfield
with the early admission, ear
ly advising and early regis
tration of incoming freshmen
that "saves them the traumat
ic experience of having to go
through the old type registra
tion (pulling cards)."
He described Mrs. 1 r m a
Laase, assistant registrar, as
the "unsung heroine." She
takes into consideration the
personal problems when fill
ing the registrations oi stu
dents who may have to work
or have some other problem,
he said.
