A delegation of civic, religious and labor groups, opposing the bill, gathered here today t 5 urge its return to committee. Robert Folwell, Philadelphia, spokesman for the groups, said every effort is being made to send the measure back to committee to die. Rep. Charles C. Smith, Repub lican floor leader, said mean while the GOP caucus may take the bill under study tomorrow to decide whether to push it to a final vote or recommit it. " The measure would require anti-Communist vows by all pub lic workers, including school teachers , and elected officials. It is one step short of a final vote in the House calendar. It has been held there since early last week when it was sent to the floor by the House state government com mittee. The Senate-passed measure is strongly opposed by teacher or ganization and civil rights groups along with the state AFL and CIO. Backing the . bill are state veterans organizations and Gov. John S. Fine. Opponents of the bill'claim it would fall far. short of its goal to prevent any Communists from seeking and getting employment in . Pennsylvania. Instead, they maintain it would promote “fear and suspicion among public em ployes” and would expose them to the risk of being “branded, with unproved charges.” - i Pal Marsteiier pha Phi Omega, national service fraternity, have pledged to aid the Campus Chest, which is sponsor ing . the program.

O. Williams, Dean of Admissions, announced yesterday. Of this total, there are 9975 undergraduate students, 1301 gradu ate, students, 181 special students, and six miscellaneous students. This figure represents a drop of 1821 from the total enrollment at the College for last semester, when, 13,284 students were on campus. In percentage, the drop shows an eight percent smaller enrollment than last semester. This figure compares favorably with the drop of 10 percent ex perienced in schools throughout the country. Williams said that college ad ministrators expected a much larger decline because of the draft and other financial conditions, but were relieved to note the comparatively slight drop. 2.6 Ratio In spit of the enrollment drop, there are actually more students on campus this semester than there were during the Spring se mester. The cause of this, he ex plained, is that there are fewer students attending Penn State centers than there were in pre vious semesters. At present there are approximately 800 students enrolled at centers. A breakdown of the figures re veals there are 8290 men and 3173 women on campus, which works out to a 2.6 ratio. Last se mester there was a 3.2 male-fe male ratio. The totals by semesters are: first semester, 1855 men and 722 women; second semester, 141 men and 44 women; third semes ter, 1501 men and 630 women; fourth semester, 184 men and 67 women. 1301 Grad Students Fifth semester, 1475 men and 581 women; sixth semester, 251 men and 46 women, seventh se mester, 1355 men and 650 women; eighth semester, 337 men and 86 women. In the graduate school there are 1108 men and 193 women; special students, 79 men and 102 women; and - miscellaneous, four men and two women. Included in the total male en rollment are 1797 veterans, the smallest number attending-the College since the war. Three Professors Resign Positions Pres. Mllton S.

David C. Hogan Jr., bursar, asked students to check this board and write checks for the proper amount before getting in to alphabetical lines. If students would follow this procedure, ra ther than waiting until they reach the window to write checks, the whole process of paying fees would be speeded up consider ably, Hogan said. All checks are to be made pay able to the Pennsylvania State College. The College does not bill par ents because students have three weeks to obtain the money and also because of the large student enrollment. This year printed sheets stating the estimated fees of undergrad uate students .were distributed to all dormitory students when they received tlieir meal tickets and room keys. Students living off campus may obtain a copy of this form at' the bursar’s office in the basement of Willard Hall. From this sheet students should be able to allocate the amounts they must pay.
