For a place of such great reputa-

pointing at first sight. If you have
driven over in the early morning. the
broad white road lies nat and feature

gloss from the leaves of the lanEuid
overhanging trees. Avignon begins To
spring up about the road. isolated

to the Place, the public square in the
heart of town.
The Place is revealed under the mer-

few hundred yards away is the palace
where whole line OF popes lived and
reigned six centuries ago, when the
central power of the church moved for
a time from Rome to Avignon. The
old papal palace is one of the most
remarkable buildings in all France
1t gives a tremendous impression of
solidity and strength. There is little
ornament about it. in striking contrast
to most of the old architecture of the

and emptiness. There are pretty little
shops and cafes nesting into the shell

the shops are half-deserted and the
walters fickering their napkins me-
over the little round tables
on the sidewalk wear a bored and
sleepy air. Early morning is evident

famous is not the old square with its

STATE SCHOOL
SHOWING GAIN
IOWA UNIVERSITY REPORTS RAP.
10 INCREASE IN NUMBER OF
REGISTRATIONS.

Iowa City, Nov. 16 The increase in
students at the state university this
year is approximately ESQ. This is
what the definite and complete figures
issued Wednesday by Registrar H. c.
Dorcas show.
A total of 1882 different persons
have registered since the beginning Of
the academic year 1856. All dupli-
cations were eliminated in arriving at
this figure and only bonafide students
of university grade were counted. II
the twenty-one students taking special
work in music, the 1913 pupils in the
elementary school and the seventy-five
in the high school, had been included.
the total registration for resident work
would be 1876. Students In cores
pondence courses and in short courses
and special conferences are never in.
cllded in the university's attendance
figures.
At the corresponding time year
ago the registration total was 3,114.
The exact increase therefore is 238, or
more than 7 per cent.
This gain was accomplished in spite
of the turning away OF students from
the dental college at the beginning Of
the year because Of lack of accoEamo-
dation for them.
In the six weeks summer session
there were 634 students. In the four
weeks session following there, was 210
but only forty-two were new students.
The total Of different students for the
summer session was, therefore 676.
For the regular year 1922 have regis
tered. Eliminating those who had
been counted in the summer session
the total to date is brought to 1882
In liberal arts there are S13 men
and $50 women, in law 1875 men and
three women; in homeopathic medi.
cine five men and one woman; in ap.
piled science 221 men: In the graduate
college 1875 men and eighty-four wo.
men: in the nurses training school
eighty women; in the homeopathic
nurses training school seventeen wo.
men; in, dentistry 1926 men and five
women. and in pharmacy fifty-four men
and four women The total Is 1919
men and l, 075 women.
The classes in liberal arts show COS
freshmen. 507 sophomores, 269 Juniors,
220 seniors and eighty-six unclassified
There is big increase in the COL
lege Of dentistry which has now thirty
more than 1t had in the whole Of last
year. It is notable, too. that the col
lege of medicine is five ahead of the
full total of last year. This shows the
error In the story that has been print
ed in many Iowa newspapers to the ef.
feet that the classes in medicine this
year were smaller than usual. figures
are not available for a comparison OF
the registration by colleges now and a
full year ago.

NEGOTIATIONS ARE
NEARLY CONCLUDED
LuSltania Controversy Believed
TO Be Near Settlement

Berlin. Feb. l5,-Aecording to
statements In the Lokal Anzeiger and
The Tageblatt. the communication
received from Ambassador Won Bern
storir gives promise Of an impending
settlement OF the Lusitania contro-
yersy, the German and American
standpoint. it is asserted, having
been brought materially nearer to
each other.
The lokal Anzeiger declares that
the only thing now necessary is TO
embody the results OF the negotia-
tions in a new note, after which the
whole matter may be regarded as set
tied"
The Tageblatt, more cautious,
says that an agreement has been
reached on the main point at issue,
but that probably some time viii
elapse before a formula is definitely
fixed.
II is stated in a high quarter that
the situation is very favorable and
that perhaps IT will be possible to
conclude the negotiations in the next
German note.
