In School Enroll for

With the customary last minute

second semester classes was closed
Saturday mornnlg. Registration
figures will not be compiled until

nenrly all students enrolled dur

The unusual feature of registra

jority of the students registered
the first half of the week instead
of waiting until the last day and a
half, according to A. R. Congdon
of the assignment committee. Ad
visors and secretaries in the vari
ous colleges were greatly rushed
the fore part of the week, but dur
ing Friday and Saturday there
was no Unusual amount of activ

The number to file their class
schedules Saturday momnig was
not very large, he stated. Because
there was no rush the last of the
week, it is believed there will not
be very many who will be regis

"Those students who did wait
until Saturday to register did not
have a very great choice of
classes," the committee chairman
stated. "Sections first closed on
Wednesday and by Saturday a
large number of the classes were
filled."
Late registrations will be on
Friday, Jan. 31, the same date set
for the registering of new stu

(Sun Dogs Spot Shy
Saturday Startling
Student Stargazers
University students happening
to glanco upward into the clear
and cold sky early Saturday aft
ernoon were somewhat surprised
to see three largo and unusually
bright-colored sundogs arranged In
a large halo around the sun.
The appearance of the sundogs,
which is not uncommon In this re
gion, was somewhut rcinarkablo In
that they wero of much morn bril
liance and of greater size thun or
dinarily, explained T. A. Blair of
tho university weather bureau.
They were caused by the reflec
tion of thu sun's rays upon a thin
upper layer of cirrus clouds con
sisting of Ice crystals. The spots
looked like small suns, having a
ralnbow-llkc color and a slightly
oblong shape. The halo effect con
sisted of a thin, white cloud circled
around the sun. The sundogs were
arranged at equal intervals on
the halo.
Professor Blair stated the sun
dogs were of no special signifi
cance and Indicated no change in
weather. They arc frequently seen
here, In summer ns well as In
winter.

After Almost Year of Work
Tho giant sea serpent, Tylosauius, latest awe inspiring
wonder of the Charles 1L Morrill paleontologieal collection, is
now mounted in panel relief along the north wall of the first
floor of the museum in Morrill hall. Dr. E. IT. Barbour, director
of the museum, invites the public to sec the remains of this

of the Niobrara Cretaceous seas of
Kansas and Nebraska. This one is
considered the largest and best
free mount of any Mosasaur now
In display in American museums.
The bones were secured from
George Sternberg, who discovered
them in the chalk beds of western
Kansas.
Work Began May, 1935.
Actual work In mounting the
sea monster began May, 1935, and
was completed by Henry Reider
and Frank Bell Jan. 8. According
to Dr. Barbour these sea serpents
varied in size from eight feet to as
much as forty feet in length. Their
jaws were set with a cruel array
of comical teeth of which there
was a double row in the upper

"Recent American history shows
that when we are fully aroused to

worst offenders from the stage.
In 1898 typhoid was a raging kill

population. We put our scientists
and educators to work; but 1932
fewer people were dying cf ty

In ten years of teaching safety In
tho schools, and while adult auto

"Plainly the thing can be done

tools are at hand. Tho job calls
for unstinting cooperation of every

"Bolshevism and fascism aro
only temporary expedients that
have been tried and discarded in.
the past, and they will be discard
ed again," Dr. C. H. Oldfather,
dean of the college of arts and
sciences at the university told tho
Kiwanis club at a meeting Friday
noon. His subject was "Common
Characteristics of Dictators."
"All known dictators seem to
have proceeded along much the
same line," Dr. Oldfather declared.
From the crop of known dictators,
Emperor Augustus was chosen for
comparisons of the ancient and
modern types.
"Augustus more than any other
man," stated Dr. Oldfather, "was
responsible for the end of democ
racy in the ancient world, and tho
introduction of the oriental au
tocracy into Europe. Modern dic
tators also arc a reaction from
democratic institutions."
