Some data as to the experience of new students .in high school athletics has been ob tained through space provided on a registration form previously used, but the new system will provide much more comprehensive information, Di rector Dudek said. May Choose Sport As, soon as physical education classes are organized, students will be given a chance to choose a sport. "The chances are' that all the sports activities of Freshman Week will be continued as the regular work," the director declared. Instead of being examined at, the close of the semester by another ser ies of tests, the student will be graded by his instructor according to his par ticipation in the sport he has chosen, according to Director Dezdek. The game will be the basis of the new system of classification, he said. • COLLEGE CONFERS .135 DEGREES THIS SUMMER. 488 Regular Penn State Students Enrullcii in A'nntLl ..With 135 students receiving bache loiS'Aegrees and 71 advanced degrees, tlili.ll9.32:pummer School had the:l4r gesoolbuating class in the hi ti rofigerin ,State, according to,Eegist r rar *Oath S.
