College Trains 10 Stenographers Ten girls started a special sten ography course Monday which is designed to train them for jobs in emergency, defense training pro grams as the College extension service. The group of 10 was selected from more than 50 applicants who wanted to take the course which will supply skilled workers to off set the deficiency of stenographers in a department of the College that is itself trying to train 14,000 men for technical jobs in defense. The course lasts 13 days with no time off, except Sundays. The girls will go to school tomorrow, July 4. and on Saturdays. Night study at home will be necessary "to absorb the instruc tion." according to Miss Margaret (Continued on Page Six) College Will Turn Over House OF Joseph Priestley To State A famous international shrine of science, the home of Dr. Joseph Priestley, a property of the Col lege since 1932, will be maintain ed by the State in the future under a bill now in the legislature. Located on the banks of the Susqiiehanna River in Northum berland, it is the same house in which Priestley, discoverer of ox ygen, found 'refuge in America af ter he had been driven out of Eng land because of his progressive religious and political teachings. He built the house in 1794, and lived in it until his death in 1804. Although of general interest, the house and property of Priest ley received no attention and was rapidly reaching a state where z estoration and preservation would no longer be possible. 76 Students Register For Draft; 88 Sign At Local Draft Board (lasses Halt Tomorrow For July 4 Celebration Because of the July 4 holiday, there will be no summer session classes tomorrow, according to an announcement from the summer sessions office. Classes will be held on Satur day,Vuly 12 in order to make up for time lost during registration last Monday. Classes, on July 12, will follow the regular Monday schedule. There will be no Satur day classes after that. Boys' Slate Here In August A spokesman for the American Legion predicted early this week that the population of State College will jump approximately 1.350 for the eriod from August 1 to August 10—and he also predicted that they'll all be boys between 15 and 20 years old. He's right. too, for those are the dates of this year's American Le gion BoysLState to be held in State College. It is not vet known how many boys will attend but 1.350 were at last year's state held et Indiantovs - r. Gap Boys chosen for attendance are leaders in their schools and com munities and are in the 15 to 20 age limit with the average between 17 and 18. Last year, 33 organiza tions participated with the Ameri can Legion in choosing boys from all over the state. The Boys' State has been held for six years. The boys .all live to gether with each unit electing lead ers. Units in turn elect district leaders. law enforcement officers and other officials. The whole group chooses representatives to its legis lature with the election of a gover nor. complete with campaigning and all the other details of a real election, as the climax. The entire State follows muni cipal and state government plans and furnishes excellent, practical experience in civic and democratic procedure. The boys maintain their own disciplinary system. Directories Obtainable Student directories may be ob tained at Student Union. Old Main. Saturday. Those who failed to reserve copies may buy them at the price of 15 cents. It was at this state that Dr. George G. Pond, Dean of the School of Chemistry at the Col lege, took interest in the house and through the generosity of the Chemistry alumni was able to buy the entire property in 1919. Ap proximately $22,000 was collected after . Dr. Pond's death the follow ing year and expended in restor ing the house, developing the grounds and in the construction of a fire proof museum. Feeling that title to the prop rety should be vested in some self perpetuating organization, the Chemistry alumni of the College transferred the property to the College in 1932: After maintain ing the Priestley House for 11 years, the -College -is now ready to turn it over to the :State and 'thus assure its permanent preservation. PRICE-TEN CENTS Many New Registrants Expected To Be Called Before End Of Year Seventy-six students register ed at the special draft registration in Rec Hail and 88 registered at Local Board No. 1 in the borough during the nation's second day of peacetime registration Tuesday. The registrants-164 in all— are a small part of approximately 1,000,000 who became 21 years of age since the first registration day last October 16. At that time, 1,- 554 students registered at the Col lege registration in the Armory. It is expected that a large ma iority of the new registrants will be under arms six months from now but it is not known to what extent this will apply to college students. Students who registered last October were accorded special legislation which permitted them to be deferred until the end of the academic year. However, that law is no longer effective and stu dents may now have to go imme diately when called. The only present hope for defer ment of students comes from a re quest made by Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, acting director of Selec tivQ Service, several months ago. Heasked local boards, who have final authority, to "postpone the induction of students until the end of the semester in which they are called." If draft boards abide by Gen eral Hershey's request, most stu dents will be able to finish at least one semester without interruption. After that, they will probably be called immediately. It is evidently the opinion of college officials that this will be the case for they have predicted that enrollment next fall will be only slightly affected by the draft. (Continued on Page Eight) Enrollment Now Al 2,200 Mark Incomplete tabulation of enroll ment statistics yesterday revealed that approximately 2,200 students are in attendance at the main sum met' session. This figure, released from the registrar's office, does not include those attending the Band and Or chestra School or the students taking summer work at Altoona. A few regular summer students were also missed in the tabula tion. Prof. R. W. Grant, head of the department of music, said that about 125 students were in the Band and Orchestra School. These, with the few at Altoona, will probably bring the final enroll ment figure to approximately 2,- 350. This will be nearly 500 less than. the 2.821 enrolled here last sum mer• when attendance exceeded the 1939 figure by about 100. No breakdown is yet available one the enrollment figure. Last year there were 1,491 men and 1.332 women. Graduate students numbered 1,070, undergraduates F2B, and those taking general ecurses 1,015. The decrease in enrollment has been attributed to national defense which, it is believed, has provided jobs for many men who came to the College summer session in past years.
