Thirty Years in Army,
Austin Not Retiring
ROTC Sergeant EnlistedWhen
Horsedraum Ambulances in Style
Tuesday, December 9, 195
By Sondra Whalen
Next month will mark 20
years of active military ser
vice for M a s t e r Sergeant
Frank Austin.
And not yet content to re
tire, the University Army
ROTC instructor hasre-enlist-ed
for another five years.
Horsedrawn- ambu
lances were used in the 11th
Medical Regiment when he
originally enlisted. At the Chi
cago World's Fair in 1933 he
was a member of the, Army
Honor Guard. -

Ag Studies
Pellet Forms
Of Feeds
Roughages and concen
trates in pelleted forms are
being studied in a beef cattle
research project at the Uni
versity Agricultural Experi
ment Station.
Dr. D. C. Clanton and Dr.
John Matsushima of the de
partment of animal husband
ry are in charge of the prov
ect. Pelleted rations result in
better feeding control the re
searchers report, because the
animals cannot easily sort out
the various ingredients in the
ration.
The researchers plan to
compare methods of prepar
ing roughage and con
centrates and to determine
the effect of pelleting rough
ages on palatability and ef
ficiency of their use. They
also hope to develop a feed
ing technique which would
provide for more control in
feeding experiments.
War, Sergeant Austin became
a German prisoner of war. He
was captured at the Battle of
Kasserine Pass on Feb. 22,
1943, remaining a prisoner for
almost two years.
An eight-day forced march
from Funstenburg to Lucken
wald during the Russian drive
to the Oder River rates as his
most harrowing experience.
Rations for the march consist
ed of one liter of soup and
one loaf of bread.
Freed by Russians
During his Army stint, Mas
ter Sergeant Austin was
awarded the Bronze Star, the
American Defense Medal, the
Europe Africa Middle East
Medal and the American
Campaign Medal. He has also
received the World W a r II
Victory Medal, National De
fense Medal and the Combat
Infantrymen Badge.

10 minutes easily."
"The only way under the
sun to progress," said the
registrar, "is to make
changes. Maybe they won't
be as good as we think they
will be. Then we'll hunt a
new solution."
Each semester, if the new
plan is continued, ti e alpha
betical list will be rotated so
the same students will not
register first, semester after
semester.
No Time Sav de
The alphabetical system
will not save the registrar's
department any time.
"It won't save us five min
utes," Dr. Hoover said.
Seniors who need classes in
order to graduate will receive
special permission, as they
have in the past, to register
for the course.
"It is very rare that a stu
dent is barred from a class
he needs for graduation," Dr.
Hoover pointed out.
Moral Obligation
"I feel we have a moral
obligation to the student. We
accept to provide for him
those courses needed to make
normal progress through the
University."
It has been more than eight
years since a senior had to
spend extra time in school in
order to graduate because he
would not register in a class
he needed, the registrar said.
Mrs. Irma Laase, assistant
registrar, said she felt the
number of special permis
sions granted to students to
enter closed classes would
not be increased under the
new system.
By spreading the registra
tion of each class over sever
al days, the people register
ing the students can see the
classes fill up.
Classes Opened
As they fill up, arrange
ments can be made with pro
fessors to open new sections
or to allow more students in
the closed class.
Under the old system, Mrs.
Laase said, all the seniors for
a particular subject would
show up to pull cards at the
same time. If a class were
closed, the student would be
forced to return again and
again to the registrar's office
to see about special arrange
ments. The classes will not fill
suddenly, but as the registra
tion progresses, fewer special
permissions will have to be
arranged by the student and
more will be arranged by the
I registration office's contact
with the department and
professors.
Second semester, Mrs.
Laase said, is a good time to
initiate a new method of en
rolling for classes because,
"there is space enough for
everyone and some to
spare, in the second semes
ter, classes are scheduled on
the basis of the first semes
ter enrollment which is usu
ally higher than second se
mester enrollment.
Rough Registrations
Registration hasn't always
been as smooth as it is now,
Dr. Hoover said.
Shortly after the second
World War, he said, some
3,000 students bulged the ent
ryway to the Temple Build
ing in an attempt to register.
The close quarters caused
some of the coeds to , faint.
Progress was slowed to a
standstill.
Mrs. Laase said that when
she first began working in
the registrar's office in 1948,
appointment cards .were
handed to the student to de
termine his time of registra
tion. Students jammed to the
registrar's office in order to I
get the cards. The first there 1
were the first served. j

(Continued from Page 1)
And women could nod in
assent at closing remarks
of fashion in general:
"Now my f a c e s parade
before you my triumphs,
my failures. Do think you
know me now? Do you un
derstand me at last, my
critical judges? Especially
you men!
"The next time you feel
tempted to laugh at your
wife's new hat which is
sprouting flowers and veg
etables or growing feathers
and fur, remember that
men at some time in his
tory have worn ribbons,
bows, plumes; they have
carried muffs, worn satin,
ruffles, wigs and perfume
on their lace-trimmed hand
kerchiefs." But men could get their
last laugh' in as the closing
goes on "Do you under
stand me, you women who
state brightly at bridge
parties that you wouldn't
be caught in an out-moded
style and look with distaste
upon last year's fashions
while wearing a dress which
was first fashionable 50
years ago . . ."
Fashion Shows Dull
Mrs. Barbara Jackson,
home economics instructor,
and writer, director and
brain of the show, claimed
that she felt most fashion
shows, were too dull. She
likes to try to write them
with life.
Mrs. Jackson assigned
work on the show to mem
bers of a small history of
costume class. Models were
volunteers, all from the
home economics department.

morning, Dr. Hoover was here
handing out cards," said the
assistant registrar.
Ideal, from the viewpoint of
a registrar, is the registra
tion system used by theUni
versity of California, said Dr.
Hoover.
The 30,000 students arrive
the first morning of classes
and simply go to the class
room of their choice. When
the room fills, the instructor
closes the door and the stu
dents inside are considered
registered. Those in the hall
rework their schedules.
