BERKELEY, CAL, Aug. 15.-There
will be decided diminution in the num-
Der of freshmen at the State University
this year, as compared with those who
gained admission both last year and :he
year before. Probably the class of 1901
will contain seyenty-tive less than the
class of 1900 at the time OF its entrance to
Berkeley.
The prospect of this falling eff in the
mum ber WHO will finally be ad mitted came
to light last night at the meeing OF the
academic council. which had been called
10 consider applications Five hundred
and forty-two applications for adm ssion,
both on credentials and by examination,
were received, which was just sixty-tve
less than the total mum ber received at a
corresponding date last year. Instead OF
the number increasing at a ratio OF about
20 Her cent, as was the case in 1895 and
1896. il fell off about 13 rer cent.
OF the 542 received AIS were for regular
standing. II for admission to the law
college, 50 for special standing and 81 for
graduate standing. OF the 428 applica-
tons for regular status 263 were passed
upon tavorshiy, leaving 165 still pending.
1t is presumed that at least IS per cent of
these latter will be refused. OF the 50 for
special sIanding % were admitted, leav-
ing % still unsettled.
The admissions committee consisting OF
Dr. Henry Lengar Professor c. l.. Cory
and Professor W llliam d. Armes does not
trace the cause of the decrease to the re-
cent di> di>continuance # accrediting Ger ain
high schools in certain branches. chief
among which IS English but rather to
the TACT that the requirem onts for admis-
sion to five OF the scientific colleges have
been advanced.
The total list OF 263 successful ones out
of the 542 who have been on the qui vive
for the last week is here given and upon
registration tomorrow morning they will
become full l-fiedged freshmen with all the
rights and prerogatives of a frst-year COL
