REGISTRATION AT
u. OF /. NOT UP TO
EXPECTATIONS

1t is said that registration at the
University of Illinois this year will
not show the increase hoped for ty
authorities of that university, and
that the total may not reach that Of
last year.
The enormous increase Immediately
following the war, when farmers and
city workmen were well paid for their
labors and well enabled to provide Tor
the maintenance of their sons and
daughters in the university, is now
retarded, it is said, because these pro-
ducing classes have been debated 10
the point where higher" education
has become an absolute impossibility.

n T EW BRUNSWICK, n. j., May
IN What may be the Oldest
charter of n college athletic
association has recently come to
light here at Rutgers College. 1t is
dated and recorded April Il. 1879. ana
was obtained under the old New
Jersey law of 1876, long since re-
pealed. which legslized the ncor-
poration of boat clubs and other
associations for the protection of
athletic exercise"
The Rutgers charter mentioned
specifically baseball. but was vague
and general concerning other sports.
for 1t was granted "for the encour-
agement and practice of ball playing
and other moral and physical exer-
cise." II was discovered several
days ago in the records Of Middlesex
county. A new incorporation is be-
ing drawn up.
