ENROLMENT ON INCREASE
AT FOREIGN SERVICE SCHOOL
Georgetown Training Course,
in Twelfth Year, Draws
Wide Commentator.
Institution FavorabIy Known
Both in Washington and
Foreign Capitals.
BY WILLIAM F. NOTZ,
Dean, School of Foreign Service.

The School of Foreign Service of
twelfth year. Since it was established
hundreds of young men have received
their college education here and now
are successfully employed in a profess
sional or commercial capacity in vari-
Gus parts Of the world, many of them
holding positions of distinction with
our own or foreign governments.
In the field of training for foreign
service this school was a pioneer un-
dertaking in the United States. Largely
due to the high type of its graduates
and former students, the school has be-
come favorably known here and abroad.
The need and value of methodical col
lege training for foreign service is now
widely recognized, and Georgetown's
efforts along this line have been fol-
lowed by a number Of other American
universities.
washington, however, more than any
other American city, lends itself to this
type of of an educational institution on
account of its unique and, in part, un-
equaled facilities as the seat Of the Ma
tional Government.
From year to year the number Of
students increases who come to this
city to avail themselves of its educa-
tional advantages. During the past
year the enrolment Of students In the
School of Foreign Service included
young men from 46 States and the
District Of Columbia and from Is for
eign countries.
Enrolment Gains.
The registration records at the pres
ent time already show a larger enroll
ment than at the same time last year,
and include an increasing number OF
graduates from other colleges and uni
yersities who wish to continue their
studies or to take special courses in the
School Of Foreign Service.
Among well known Americans who
have taken an interest in the School of
Foreign Service and have commended
Its work are the late former President
Taft, Chief Justice Hughes and former

SENIOR DORM|TORY
NEARLY FINISHED
Copley Hall, on Georgetown
Campus, to Be Occupied
This Winter.

AS another milestone in the steady
expansion of Georgetown University
since the World War when increased
demands were made upon the insti-
tuition, the new. six-story stone dormi-
tory building which is being erected
for college seniors on the Hilltop
campus will be ready for occupancy
during the coming Winter.
Since the establishment of the School
of Foreign Service IL years ago in
downtown washington, Georgetown
University has invested several millions
Of dollars in new buildings and i'm
provements. Copley Hall, the senior
dormitory, now nearing completion. is
the first unit Of a. quadrangle project
that will entail an expenditure of ap-
proximately $2,500,0 900 additional
New Foot Ball Field Provided.
More recent structures erected at
Georgetown include the maternity
building at the hospital, q dormitory
with a central heating unit for the en-
tire college plant and the medical
dental school building on Reservoir
country. During the Summer the uni
versity has provided a new foot ball
field directly in the rear of the medical
dental building as a substitute for the
old athletic field now occupied by Cop
ley Hall. This field will be ready for
the team when it returns this month.
Georgetown University, Oldest Amer
lean Catholic institution, will open its
1920 academic year during the present
month. College freshmen will report
September Is for a weeks orientation
before the college classes begin Septem-
Der %. The morning course at the
School Of Law begins September 10 and
all other courses In that department,
as well as at the Medical and Dental
Schools open September %. The For
eign Service School starts october /.
Freshman Class Restricted.
In view Of the limited dormitory ia
cilities at the college It was announced
that the incoming freshman class would
be restricted TO about $50 students. AS
an indication Of the expansion at the
college within the past 10 years. the
entire college enrolment a decade ago
hardly exceeded the personnel of the
present freshmen. Because it Is neces-
sary to turn away hundreds of appli-
cants each year, Georgetown authorities
have laid down q rule that only those
students who stood among the first
third in their high school graduating
classes will be admitted to the college.
In the other departments Of the uni
versity where less congestion prevails q
limited number of students may yet be
admitted for the coming year.
The new senior dormitory will have a
capacity for about $40 students, thereby
permitting that many additional stu
dents being admitted to the college next
year.

AT THE EMBASSY

Road to Paradise" a much her aided First National and Vitaphone character drama, opens at the En- bassy theater tomorrow for a run of three days.
 Loretta Young heads the all-star cast in a dual role, either part of which is the most important in the pictute. Jack Mulhall is her lead ing man. George Barraud has an outstanding role, and other strik- ing characters are enacted by such favorites as Raymond Hatton, Kathlyn Williams, Dot Farley, Pur- nell Pratt and Fred Kelsey.
 The screen play, by F. Hugh Her bert, deals with twin sisters who have been separated and lost to each other. and one is brought up by crooks, the other in her own wealthy station. Barraud and Hatton, as the very human and likable crooks, chance to see the wealthy girl, are struck by the wonderful resemblance between her and their ward, and prom ptly cook up a plot to use that resemblance for robbery.
 Although the story of Golden Dawn" the Warner Brothers Vita phone and Technicolor version of the famous stage operetta of that name opening tomorrow at the Embassy theater is a story laid in Africa when the World war Vas in progress, it is not a war story nor is the battle between Germany and the other na- tions of the world the biggest fight that enters the picture.

Diplomats Want Permission to Wear Resplendent Uniforms at
 State Functions In Foreign Field
Journal Takes Up Question of Revival of Old Dress CustOm-Gold Braid and Clanking Sword Attract Envious Eyes.

Washington, Aug. 4.-LP-AgDa- tion for the splendors and glory of a uniform, with plumed hat and sword, for American diplomats has again sprung up among foEeign service of- ficers.
 The discussion was brought about by an article in the American For elgn Service Journal. official organ of the organization to which virtu- ally all foreign service officers, in cludsng consuls and diplomats be- long.
 Reprints Correspondence
 Admitting the subject to be a deli cate one, the Journal merely reprint ed without comment correspondence submitted on the question. Time and again in recent years, uniforms for service officers have been agitated for, but without result Most of the governments of the world have a uniform for their diplomats, with the rank of the individual indicated by the amount of gold braid showing. Ambassadors have the most res plendent ones, often with nearly as much braid as coat material.
 In the American service, however, no diplomatic uniforms are permit ted so ambassa dors and ministers to many countries which adhere to the old traditions must wear full evening dress when calling at the palace even during the morning. Some American diplomats have evaded the ban, however, by securing commis- sions in the army reserve, or other service reserves and appearing at various functions in military uni forms
 Once Had Naval Uniform
 The state department as early as 1901 permitted it's consuls and vice consuls to wear a naval uniform, even though they never had been in the navy. Fifteen years lat CT these regulations were amended to prescribe more distinctive outfit. In 1896 this was cancelled and it was directed that henceforth diplomats who had served as officers of the Union army during the Civil war might wear their uniforms. but that others would have to wear civilian clothes. The regulation still is in effect, but is sometimes disregarded in cases where diplomats hold reserve con- missions. The reason generally grv- en for reluctance of the department s to permit foreign service uniforms on state occasions issthat any such display might draw popular criticism as being repugnant to republican ideas.
