NO FULL SECTIONS
AT END OF SECOND
REGISTRATION DAY
Congdon Predicts Close
15 or 20 Classes by
Noon Today.
of
No classes were reported defi
nitely closed to further enrollment
when one of the heaviest registra
tion days in the history of the uni
versity came to an end Tuesday.
"Yesterday there was one of
the heaviest rushes we had ever
experienced," remarked Dr. A. R.
Cogdon, chairman of the uni
versity assignment committee,
"but we were even busier today.
Altho we took no check at closing
time Tuesday, I do not believe that
any sections were filled."
Classes to Close.
..Dr. Gongdon predicted that 15
or 20 classes would probably be
closed by noon today if registra
tion continued in its original in
tensity. He stated that a list of
closed sections would probably be
compiled sometime this afternoon,
and would be piinted early enough
for copies to be in the hands of
advisors Thursday morning..
'It seems that students are reg
istering earlier than usual this
year," Dr. Congdon said, "how
ever it may cause a decided de
crease in activity towards the end
of the week." He attributed the
early registration to the heavy en
rollment expected because of the
record number of students at
tending the university during the
present semester.
Special Registration.
Students expecting privileges in
registering for special courses or
for permission to carry less than
the required two-thirds of their
hours in the afternoon, are par
ticularly urged by the assignment
committee to complete their en
rollment today as it will be in
creasingly difficult to arrange
their programs after some of the
classes are filled. Dr. Congden de
clared that "no matter what the
excuse, no student will be placed
in a class after its reported
capacity has been reached.
Registration will not close until
noon Saturday, Jan. 16. During the
week of Jan. 22 to 28, fees will be
collected in Grant Memorial hall.
All students in the university dur
ing the present semester who do
not register by Jan. 28, will be
liable to a late registration fee of
$3.

work into three main groups:
complete programs, filler an

Wilis Script ConleM
for Spring Show.
"Bar-Nothing Ranch." a three
act musical comedy by Herb
Yenne, instructor in the dramatics
department, was selected as the
script for the Kosmet Klub spring
show by Klub members Tuesday
afternoon.
Classed as "the most entertain
ing show ever produced by Kosmet
Klub," "Bar-O Ranch" was pre
sented as the spring show five
years ago. Rewritten by the au
thor in its "1937 version" with
spots for new songs, the play won
the Klub's prize contest in com
petition with five original scripts.
Yenne's Fourth.
"Bar-O Ranch" will be the 24th
play produced by the Klub since
1911, and the fourth written by
Yenne. His others. "Dream Pirate"
outstanding as a musical success,
played in 1927; "The Love Hater"
in 1928; and "Jingle Belles" in
1932.
No precedent is established by
the selection of a show produced
once before. Remarked Klub Pres
ident Bob Shellenberg, "Two other
Kosmet productions have been pre
sented the second year, and in
each case the second production
exceeded the first in popularity
and the quality of the show."
Tho few undergraduates will re
member the show, some more per
manent members of the campus
do. Declared Prof. E. F. Schramm,
chairman of the geology depart
ment and the Klub's faculty spon
sor, "Undoubtably the "Bar-O
Ranch is one of the best shows
ever selected by Kosmet Klub for
its annual spring show."
Other Reasons.
Indications of other reasons for
selecting "Bar-O Ranch" over the.
five other scripts was inferred in
comments made by Shellenberg to
the Nebraskan. "Members of the
Klub have felt that some of the
spring shows of the past few years
have not come up to Kosmet's
former standards," he said, "and
we were determined to pick a
show this year that would win
national recognition for Nebraska
that good student productions are
accorded. The radio has noticeably
increased its interest in campus
