COLLEGE ROUND-UP:
Summer Enrollments
Fail To Drop Sharply

Following the Yeats drama
will be "The Shadow of a Gun-
man," by Sean O'Casey Both
plays will be presented on the
same theatrical bill of fare to-
night and tomorrow night..
Conisidered the author''s favor-
ite, "The Shadow of a Gunman"
is a tough bitter tragedy of Dub-
lin slum life and Ireland's strug-
gle for independence.
AT TWO MATINEES to be giv-
en at 3:15 p.m. tomorrow and Sat-
urday, the Players will present
"In the Shadow of the Glen," by
J. M. Synge, Yeats' "Purgatory,"
and "The Rising of the Moon" by
Lady Gregory.
The program will shade from
the spirited comedy of Synge's
peasant play to Yeats' wrathful
comments on modern Ireland and
civilization as a whole.

The expected sharp drops in en-
rollment have failed to materialize
at most universities, a survey
conducted by the New .York Times
shows.
A majority of the fifty repre-
sentative colleges and universities
covered by the survey are just
about "holding their own" this
summer. Though a number re-
ported an enrollment loss ranging
from five to ten per cent, this is
Bunting Given
Defense Post
Retired dean of the dentistry
school Russell W. Bunting, will
coordinate dental activities in the
national civil defense program.
His acceptance of the Federal
Civil Defense Administration as-
signment was announced yester-
day.
Past president of the Interna-
tional Association of Dental Re-
search, Dr. Bunting was a member
of the University dental faculty
from 1904. He served as dean from
1937 until his retirement furlough
began last month.
City Water Rates
Rise 35 Percent
City water rates will be raised
an average of 34% percent and
sewer service will cost an average
of 11'/2 per cent more Saturday,
Sept. 1, the Ann Arbor City Coun-
cil ruled Monday night.
Increasing the rates is designed
mainly to cover boosts in opera-
tional costs. The average house-
holder's water ,bill will be hiked
about $5 annually, and the city
will gain about $105,500 from the
increases.

almost counter-balanced by the
institutions that showed a gain.
Many colleges reported a spurt
in v e t e r a n enrollments, al-
though, on the whole, there are
fewer veteran students this sum-
mer than last.
Reason is that July 25 is the lat-
est date for enrollment under the
GI education bill. After that, only
veterans who have already en-
rolled can continue to receive GI
funds.

TEXAS MEN now have a new
achievement to boast of.
University of Texas officials
announced that individual
phones will be placed in each
room in four of the women's dor-
mitories next September.
The move came as a result of
continued complaints of the dis-
proportionate number of students
who have to use each phone.

BROOKLYN COLLEGE will of-
fer courses leading to a diploma
in television beginning next Sep-
tember.
Part of the curriculum will con-
sist of instruction in the actual
operation of the modern electronic
equipment found in the television
studio, in programming and in
production.
A unique educational struc-
ture, which may serve as a mo-
del for adult education centers
in the United States, will soon
be unveiled at Michigan State
College.
To be known as the Kellogg

the $2,000,000 building is designed
to accommodate the thousands of
Michigan residents who come to

Students Chosen
For Scholarships
NEW YORK-(IP)-Two hundred
outstanding students, most of
them not out of high school, have
been chosen for a program that
will give them two years of free
college before they reach draft age.
The names of the students, who
come from 32 states, will be an-
nounced after each has formally
accepted the scholarships offered
for this fall by the Universities of
Chicago, Columbia, Wisconsin and
Yale.
Besides tuition, most students
will receive up to $1,000 cash for
living expenses.
Financed by a $1,200,000 grant
from the Ford Foundation, the
program is limited to boys under
16% years old and is intended to
make sure some students get
through half their college educa-
tion before being drafted.
