All students who have not yet completed their registration
must do so tonight. Anyone registering later than this will be
assessed late fees.
Registration has been unusually slow this year. However,
yesterdav there was a steady flow of students streaming thru
the line at Temple. Dr. A. R. C'ongdon, head of the university
assignment committee, reminded
students that the registration pe
riod is a day and a half shorter

Resident students, even tho not
sure of returning to school next
fall should register now and avoid
late fees if they should return. All
fees are to be paid during the
regular registration days in the
fall. Students will receive regis
tration slips at the coliseum Sept.

Sugar Card
Registering
Ends Today
Today is the last day for cam
pus students to register for their
sugar rationing cards at Bancroft
school. Hours will again be open
between 2 and 8 p. m. Students
must register now because this pe
riod is nationwide, and it will be
very difficult to register and re
ceive a ration book after its close.
It should be emphasized that
these bopks are not only for sugar,
but at some later date, may also
serve as ration cards for shoes,
clothing, or any other rationed ar
tides. This fact makes it doubly
important that each student
know for certain that he has been
registered. Students under 18
vears of aee should bring their

typical coed. Going back to the
pre-college days, Dinny won her
share of high school honors by
being the first governor of Girl's
State.
Vital statistics on the situation
are: She's 5 feet, 5 inches tall;
weights 10, has blonde "dish
water" hair, blue eyes, doesn't
diet, loves steaks and oranges, has
an 84 average and is majoring
in poli sci.
Less vital statistics include Din
ny's partiality for blue Jeans and
a white sweat shirt in rare mo
ments. Her wardrobe in less rare
moments is mainly blue with a
few red pieces.
Her hobby is unusual formals;
she likes to ride, shoot and dance.
Friends nay that she stays up until
all hours and gets up earlier than
anyone else. Another one of her
favorite activities is walking in
the rain alone or otherwise.
Unaffiliated as far as affections
are concerned, Dinny never wears
hair ribbons, favors a blue straw
pillbox with a wisp of a veil and
an aqua silk jersey shirtwaist.
She's saving her silk hose until
she's a senior.
Thurman Arnold says he'll have
his prosecuting machine ready

aren't worried, and that they'll
