Accord ing to Registrar Floyd Hoover, and Mrs. Irma Laase, assistant registrar. They attribute this ease to the plan w hich w as w orked out to allow the students as much time as possible to pay his fees. As a result, no student had to spend the full 30 min utes to pay his own fees. It was also noted thai ever s.flOi students registered for There is a new fraternity colony on the University scene Triangle fraternity has established a Nebraska colony which now claims 45 members. Triangle was founded in the fall of 1906 at the University of Illinois by 16 members. The second chapter was es tablished at Purdue in 1909. The fraternity now has 21 chapters with the new Nebras ka colony and plans to colo nize at Iowa State University. Lnique Rushing Triangle Fraternity is unique in the National Inter fraternity Conference in that it selects its members from those students who are ma joring in engineering, archi tecture, chemistry, physics and mathematics. The colony members are making plans for housing, participating in their first! rush week on the University campus, and their first social event. The Nebraska Colony is sponsoring the selection of the "National Calendar Girl of Triangle Fraternity." Each sorority on the Nebraska cam pus was invited to nominate two of its members for this selection. Sunday a tea was held to interview the 13 fi nalists. They are: Pam Bartling, Delta Gamma: Vicky Cullen, Gamma Phi Beta: Sally Dale, Alpha Omicron Pi: Kathy Farner, Pi Beta Phi.

By TOM KOTOUC Over 70,000 international students study in United States' colleges and Univer sities each year. Most of these 70,000 return to their own nations to become lead ers of their countries. But the impressions that they carry back with them of the United States, and its citi zens are many times unfa vorable. One former overseas stu dent at the University of Kan sas wrote KU Chancellor Clarke Wescoe last spring that "of every 10 students that go back to their coun try, nine carry ill feelings to ward the American people. "You can notice that they live in cliques while they stay here. I was sorry to find that the great majority of stu dents at KU don t give a damn for these people and do not know, nor do they want to. know their prob lems." Chancellor Wescoe received another letter from an inter national student who had; been exposed to American life through living in a KU fraternity house: I mean it when I sav that I came in contact with what' I consider American tradi-i jtion in the very best sense! of the word.

These students then substituted other classes. Another benefit of early registration was that the in structors knew how many stu dents were going to be ia their classes before the first class session was held. Out of 6.400 early registra tions only 200 were cancelled because they did not pay their fees on time. The majority of these students were back in school on Monday. If they had called the Registrar's of-j fice and had had a legiti mate excuse, arrangements ! were made for the payment. of their lees. Although "registration "was not 100 effective it has been pointed out by many of the people working on registra tion that they had never seen the students so considerate and easy to work with. Students were very cooper stive because they realized that the system for paying fees had been established for their own good, said Dr. Hoover. Several University students said that tbey felt the new system ef paying fees was very- effective. Less time was required ta complete the registration forms and the student could choose the time he wanted fa pay his fees. These students weren't the only people who felt that the new , system was , effective; several University instructors also felt the same way. They said that the new system was a vast improvement over the' previous system in that the departments and the individ ual instructors knew sooner how many students were go ing to be enrolled in their courses. 619 this past year for tht benefit of the University an increase of $99,744 over last year. In addition, the Foundation turned over $966, 443 in pledges to the Nebras ka Center. Among the benefits listed were: $242,875 for scholar ships, grants-in-aid and f e !-low-ships; $138,642 for research projects; $12,875 for the Uni-i versity State Museum im-j provements and exhibits; $3.-i 034 for faculty and University support and $2,000 for distin guished teaching awards. Branch said the lumber at alumni donors increased by 625 this year for a total f 1,453. In other elections, the Trus tees named Flavel A. Wright, Lincoln attorney, to the ex ecutive committee for a four- year term. Re-elected to the committee for a six-year term were Ford Bates of Omaha and Burnham Yates of Lin coln. .

So successful was People-to-People at KU that, within three months after Dawson and a friend, Rick Barnes, had begun it, over 500 Am erican students from KU were sharing with the 350 in ternational students there.
