T i ' , is fact coupled with Dodds sparkling personality has won Tech tunerous fans throughout the Southland. - ' Btit even with Tech's uncanny bowl, record and Dodd's magna-' thin, Southern writers were , cauitious about giving the Wreck "a t slight ledge" after they saw tha,Lions in football togs. • "The, Nit ' tany Lions are the!finest specimens of football flesh, this writer has. ever seen," wrote! one Southern scribe. "Even their ! b r ig t4kles. Jim Smi th and Charlie Sieminski, look lean and mean.” But the fans in general didn't heed the warning signs. They remembered a 25-0 shellacking Nliarni had given the Lions earlier in Hie year. and they thought the oddsmakers were being overtly gentirous by making State a slight three-point underdog. In fact, one Rebel, sipping soup in a restaurant two hours before the game, was worried about whether he had made a mistake in' taking State and 14 points in a wager with an avid Yellow Jacket fan. And when Tech spurted to a: 9-0 lead early in the game on a safety awarded on a penalty call and a 68-yard burst off tackle by T i er.lx sophomore Joe Auer, that'Southerner was probably cursing himfelfi for ever betting on a IYankee team.

Bernreuter, registrar, said yesterday. • The biggest problem was that of a bottleneck at registration Wednesday morning, Bernrebter said. He said the trouble was - due to the understaffing of several stations. But, we had it clehred up by noon and everything moved smoothly after that," he said, Robert -M. Koser. associate registrar. attributed the diffi culty on Wednesday to an Un expected number of schedule changes. Roughly 45 per cent of the stu dents made schedule changes. Koser said. The total registration for the two-day period totaled 15,872' students on this campus. The registration process can not be evaluated merely by the number of students who re ceived satisfactory schedules. Koser said. There are many other questions which must be answered before it can be termed successful, hecplaied. The system must c o s e' evaluated by the departments to see the breakdown of sections, class as signments and course demand, Koser added. There is a possibility that the system will be changed before spring term registration, Bern reuter said.

FOR A BETTER PENN STATE Tuition Hike Considered Another hike in the University's tuition may be made tQ ,prox;ide a source of income for more salary funds, President Eric A. Walker said Tuesday. `.,Qualified teachers, hard to find and harder fo keep. in an exp4nding market, present a special problem since Penn State for many years has trailed other unirlersities of comparable size and ;stature in its salary scale. Four, times in the last six years the University has instituted tui tion ;boosts to allay this problem. With a restricted state appropria tion.) it has no choice now except to ltiok to its fee stricture again as a'source of new salary dollars,' Walker said. Walker referred to the ,pos able increase when Commenting on Gov. David 1... Lawrence's recommendation of an 'annual $2.0, million approp riation _ for the University. The amount is Z 4 million less than Walker sought from the state legislature. Lawrence's recommendation was !included in his slightly over $1 billion budget presented , at the legiilature's opening session Tues day. he Governor, asked to com ment on Walker's comments, yes terday told a news conference that ,theie s little hope for any: further increase in the University's up propriation. 1 ' Last year the University re quested a 323 million annual appropriation but received only 118 mullion for the year from the • state. The University announced a $45 MARLETTE ROSENBERG illed ,1L Kill 3, Injure 6 Sy CAROL KUNKLEMAN increase in the total yearly tuition to provide additional operating funds last year.. Under the .emes ter plan, yearly .tuition• was $4BO and under the present 4-term plan, the tuition the comparable period is $525. Walker said that the smaller 'appropriation would necessitate a further cutback in freshman admissions, a "freeze" of total enrollment at Its present Jove! and a postponement of planned research.. He explained that $2 million of the $5.5 million increase was in tended for faculty salaries; $l.- 850,000 to overcome "butigelibiry imbalances" caused by the atehus SIMI of 2,400 students over the past two year's -for whom! there was no direct state aid• $650.000 to equip four new buildings al ready authorized try the General State Authority; and $1 million ,for new research. Wilmer E. Kejtworthy. execu tive assistant to toe president, said yesterday that the president will make no further statement on the apprnpriation.
