EXPECTING 5000 STUDENTS
Ohio State May Not Break it's Record
Because of Mobilization.

Columbus, O.-Dreams of a total re-
gistration Of 5000 at Ohio State uni
versity, which were expected to come
true this year, have been shattered by
the mobilization of the Ohio National
Guard, it is thought, although at this
early period no definite prediction of
next falls enrolment can be made by
university officials. "It is hard to say
how many boys will be forced to stay
out of school and work next year be-
cause they could earn no money dur
ing vacation at Camp Willis said Les
ter E. Wolfe, entrance committee
chairman. Several have written me
for positions already. One boy told
me he had a job which would pay him
enough to come to school. The second
day he worked he was called out"
Hundreds of university men are
members of the guard. Company G Of
the Fourth infantry, is composed en-
tirely of students. Their salary as
members of the militia will not go far
toward paying their college expenses
Summer school, with a total registra-
ton OF l,1SU-Lno record IOr attend
ance-closed Friday. AS this enroll
ment was nearly 200 more than last
year, it would have been comparative
ly easy to have reached the grand
total of 5000 this year, but for the mo-
bilization. Last year, with less than
| 1000 in summer school, the total at
tendance was 1922. New Students,
registered so far, total 524, exactly the
same as this time last year. But it is
among the older students that the big
decrease is expected. The two nav
buildings, the shop and home econom.
les buildings, which were expected
to be completed in time for the begin
ming of school, will not be ready until
November, it has been announced.
