Enrollment Expected
To Exceed 6500
It Happened at NU ...
With slightly more than 5,500
students registered last week, the
estimated enrollment of 6,500 ap
peared within easy reach Monday
afternoon.
Dr. Floyd W. Hoover, acting
director of registration and rec
ords, and Dr. G. W. Rosenlof, di
rector of admissions, were opti
mistic about exceeding the 6,300
figure. Dr. Hoover estimated that
five hundred graduate students
would register before the Sept. 22
deadline and that College of
Medicine registration would total
approximately the same.
In addition, the assignment
committee registered quite a
large number of late students
Monday.
Although last year's pre-class
registration totaled only a hun
dred more than this year's, the
final University population figure
was more than eight thousand
students. Dr. Hoover explained
that an entirely different count
ing system was used last year
and that therefore a comparison
of pre-class registration in the
two years is no accurate indica
tion of total registration.
While undergraduate registra
tion was scheduled to end last
week, registration in the graduate
college will continue until Sept.
29.
Students who wish to drop or
add courses may do so today in
the Military Science building.
Those who wish to change
schedules after today need the
written permission of the in
structor. Three steps are necessary for
changing registration:
1. See your adviser for permis
sion for change. With his help
fill out the drop and add sheet.
2. See your dean, or if you are
a freshman, see the Junior Divi
sion. 3. See the assignment commit
tee. A drop and add fee of $2.50 is
assessed.
Students who wish to change
sections of a course may do so
by seeing the chairman of the de
partment. Oct. 6 is the deadline for drops
and adds.

Sales Remain
Untouched By
Reynold's Fate
Cornhusker fans had better
hustle if they expect to get
tickets to Nebraska football
games.
All reserved seat tickets have
long been gone, and by Monday
only a few bleacher seats re
mained for the Penn State and
Oklahoma games. Bleacher space
for the other three home games
was selling fast
The University ticket office re
ported Monday morning that the
recent injury of Bobby Reynolds
seemed to have had no immediate
effect upon ticket sales.
The ticket office also an
nounced that student and faculty
gates into the stadium will be the
same as last year. The Daily Ne
braskan is publishing a diagram
in today's issue showing these, en
trances. The ticket office requested that
students sit in their regular foot
ball game seats during the freshman-varsity
game Saturday. The
office also suggested that all stu
dents should enter the stadium
by 1:30 every Saturday so as to
avoid the 2:00 p. m. rush.
Scarcity of football tickets was
reflected in the full registration
in Lincoln hotels for football
weekends. The largest local hotels
reported to The Daily Nebraskan
Monday afternoon that all avail
able space has been filled for
most of the home games. Only in
a few hotels were reservations
still open for every home game.

NU Police
To Give Out
Car Stickers
Students applying for parking
permits have been negligent in
bringing automobile registration
certificates with them which is a
definite requirement, according to
Student Council representatives
selling the permits.
Car owners living more than
six blocks from the campus must
have parking permits affixed to
their windshields by Friday. Stu
dent Council is handling the sales
at a booth in front of the Corn
Crib in the Union.
In addition to the registration
certificate, students must also
present their identification cards
and fill out an application. A
twenty-five cent fee is paid upon
validation of the application.
University police will issue the
stickers north of the Social Sci
ence building on the 12th street
mall. oPlicemen will be on duty
there from 8 a m. until noon and
from 1 until 5 p.m.
The booth in the Union will be
open Monday ana weanesaay
from 9:30 until 11 a.m. and each
afternoon this week from 1 until
5 p.m.
All faculty members should
have secured a parking sticker by
this time. Students are requested
not to park in areas designated
as a faculty parking area.

There are the usual gripes
about the high price of books.
And there's one science book
that none of the stores will buy
because "they aren't going to
use it any more." This has been
said of the same book for the
past two years.
Freshmen beanies are begin

around the campus. Under them,
of course, are freshmen.
Everybody is glad to see every
body right now. It'll be a few
weeks longer before the juniors
start knifing each other in the
back and the seniors start com
peting among themselves for jobs
and husbands. (Or wives, as the
case might be.)
Of course the big topic of con
versation right now is football.
All the girls imagine themselves
madly in love with some first
stringer while their boy friends
take bets on the outcome of any
game.
Picnics, a subversive activity,

'Russia Has at Least 70 Divisions Read
OTTAWA British Defense
Chief Emmanuel Shinwell
Monday cited some striking
figures in describing the So
viet threat to world peace. He
declared that Russia has "at
least 70 divisions" ready for
immediate use in Europe. The
Kremlin, he added, also is
"maintaining a fleet of 300
modern submarines as well as
surface vessels, 215 divisions,
including many armored divi

Adenauer Calls For Fast German Rearmament
BONN, GERMANY Chan
cellor Konrad Adenauer, in an
interview with UP, called for
a speed-up in the rearmament
of western Germany. "Much
time" has already been wasted,'
he said. Adenauer predicted
that west Germans would ap
prove the incorporation of
German units in a western
European army.
Truman Socks At Dictators, Politicians
WASHINGTON President
Truman got in two hard licks
Monday one at the Soviet
dictators and the other at po
litical vote-getters. He called
Russian society a "jungle" and
said through it "the naked
power of the government
prowls like a beast of prey,
making all men afraid." In his
second speech, delivered to the
National Association of Post
masters, the President remark
ed that a lot of persons are
"trying to make political capi
tal" by attacking the loyalty
of government workers. It is
a "contemptible way to get
votes," he said.
