Thompson, Dean of Stu dent Affairs, in co-operation with the athletic department, has ar ranged for temporary beds to be set up in the field house. The field house has a number of double bunks set up and they can be obtained for 50c a night. This arrangement will be maintained until there is no further need for it. Because of the Increase In en rollment, many coeds were not able to live in dormitories or houses on the campus. Accord ing to Miss Elsie Tiper, assistant dean of women, the great major ity of women have now found rooms and very few have had to leave the university because rooms were not available. Miss Piper stated that there are enough rooms for all coeds who have not found a place to live. The Lin coln Women's Chamber of Com merce has aided the Dean of Women's office in securing houses with available room thru adver tising and radio appeals. Such houses are registered at the Dean of Women's office in Ellen Smith Hall." Classes begin Thursday. STUDENTS .
