College Bills
Still Undecided
- With the State Legislature en
tering its final week in Harris
burg, 10 College appropriation
bills,—totaling more than $7,000,-
-000—are ,still being : debated by
..either the Serrate or therHoUse.
The general-maintenance apprd'-:
priation has been passed by both
eroups but in different amounts.
The House set the figure at $4,-
600,000 and the Senate raised it to
55,509,545, the amount originally
asked by the College. Final action
will be taken by a joint House-
Senate committee.
A bill for coal research in the
School of Mineral Industries has
also been passed by both groups,
again in different amounts. The
House set the figure at $50,000 and
the Senate at $lOO,OOO.
Other appropriation bills in the
Legislature are for aeronautical
engineering, $250,000; agricultural
research, $321,000; agricultural
research buildings, $110,000; flax
research, $200,000; tobacco re
search, $25,000; coal and oil re
search, $125,000; child nutrition
.research, $20,000; GSA building
rentals, $759,121.
A bill by which the College
owned Joseph Priestley home in
Northumberland would be taken
over by the state has been passed
by the Senate but not by the
House.
None of the appropriation bills
will become final until acted upon
by Governor James. He has 30
days from the end of the session
in which to decide and has the
power to lower appropriations but
rot to raise them.
It was announced Thursday by
the General State Authority that
James B. Finn, Hollidayburg, has
been awarded contracts of $1,540
and $1,300 for the installation of

OF THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE COLLEGE
STATE COLLEGE, PA., MONDAY, JUNE 30, 1941
Registrants Mast
Attend Classes
Following the precedent set last
October 16 when 1,554 students
registered here for the draft, the
College will hold a special regis
tration for summer school students
in Rec Hall tomorrow—the nation's
second day for registration under
the Selective Service Act.
The announcement came jointly
from William S. Hoffman, College
registrar and special registration
chairman, and Adrian 0. Morse,
assistant to the Pre . Sident and
chairman of the central College
draft advisory committee.
Although preparations are being
made to' register 150 students, it
was predicted that the actual figure
may be "below 50, certainly not
many more." Two hundred addi
tional are expected to register at
the State College draft board. In
all Pennsylvania. approximately
65,000 will sign up.
Mr. Hoffman pointed out that the
campus registration is only for
regularly enrolled summer session
students 'and said that all others
must register at the local board on
the .second • floor of the Masonic
the StrPet.
emphasized that undergraduate
students on campus, but not at
tending the main summer session,
cannot register at Rec Hall.
He added that undergraduate
students who are taking special
defense course or CAA pilot train
ing but no regular summer session
courses may register at Rec Hall
and not at the local board. It was
announced from the summer 'ses
sions office that draft registrants
will be required to attend all
classes during the day.
The registration on campus will
be a branch of the registration at
the local board. Last fall, the Col
lege registration had to be sanc
tioned by• special government au
thority because local boards had
not yet been created.
Registration will be for every
man who "has attained the 21st
anniversary of the day of his birth
and has not heretofore been regis
tered.- Both the campus registra
tion place and local board head
quarters will be open from 7 a. m.
to 9 p: m. However, students have

Predicted By Officials i
egistration In Rec Hall
National Defense May
Cause Slight Decrease
MARION R. TRABUE, above, is
director of summer sessions .who
will supervise the courses of in
struction which start tomorrow
and last until August 8. He is also
dean of the School of Education.
Dean Announces
Women's Hours
Residences for women and the
hours which will prevail in wom
en's dormitories and town houses
were announced yesterday by
Dean of Women Carlotte E. Ray.
Atherton Hall, Chi Omega and
Alpha Omicron Pi will be open
for women students .in general.
Grange Dormitory will be occu
pied by the French Institute, Delta
Gamma by the Progressive Work
shop, Kappa Kappa Gamma by
the Band and Orchestra faculty,
and Theta Phi Alpha by married
couples.
Downtown dormitories will be
maintained at the Acacia, Phi
Kappa Sigma, Sigma Nu and
Sigma . Phi Epsilon fraternity
houses.
The usual summer session hours
will prevail: Sunday to Thursday
inclusive-11:30 p. m.; Friday and
snthrdav-1 a. m.
PRICE-TEN CENTS
Registration Scheduled
8 A.M. To S P.M. Today
A belief that enrollment in the
main summer session will fall be
tween 2,500 and 3,000 was express
ed Friday by College officials as
hundreds of summer school stud
ents began pouring into town for
registration today and the actual
start of classes tomorrow.
The latest figures compiled by
Registrar William S. Hoffman show
that on June 17 578 students, 22
more than at the same time last
year, had been admitted for the
main summer session. Although
only 97 per cent as many applica
tions had been received as at the
same time a year ago, 110 per cent
as many were from the upper fifth
of their high school class.
However, Dean Marion R. Tra
bue, director of summer sessions,
predicted that enrollment will show
a slight decrease from the record
number who attended the last sum
mer session. He based his p‘dic
tion .en the - fact that many ',bile
school teachers are engaged in •de
fense work for the summer.
Other officials thought that part
of this decrease might be offset by
those who attend to take one or
more of the special defense courses
being offered by the College. Sev
eral staff members said that a few
regular session students plan to
attend summer school in order that
they . may be graduated in Febru
ary if forced to leave because of
the draft.
Summer session registration will
•be held in Rec Hall from 8 a. m. to
5 p. m. today with payment of fees
in the Armory from 9 a. m. to
5 p. m. on July 7. Students en-:
rolling in the Institute of French
Education must registrater both in
Ree Hall and at Grange Dormitory.
At a special registration Thurs
day, students who attended Inter
session enrolled for main session
courses. They will pay their fees
at the same time as other summer
students.
Inter-session enrollment was the
third highest•in the history of the
