The number OF registrations re-
ceived so far indicates the largest
fall enrolment the Columbia Tech
Institute has had in its 32-year his
tory, Paul j. Leverone, principal,
announced yesterday

partment and radio department will
begin the week of September 20.
The drafting. blueprint reading and
estimating and commercial art

All persons interested in attend
ing the institute should register as
soon as possible, Mr.. Leverone said.
In addition to the schools stand
ard four-year evening courses in
mechanical, civil, architectural, elec-
trical and aeronautical engineering,
the engineering department also
offers IL 9-month unit evening
courses in specialized branches.
These include airplane design, air.
plane stress analysis, air-condition-
ing, radio communications, building
design, basic electrical, surveying,
landscape architecture, television
and electronics, machine design, en-
gineering, public speaking, sales
manship and combustion engines.
Drafting Department Extended.
The Institutes drafting depart
ment has been extended by the ad-
dition of new composite day draft
ing course. Evening and day courses
in mechanical, aircraft, archi-
tectural, electrical. machine, land
scape, patent Office, topographic.

semester. To meet expected in
crease Of enrolment during the
coming September semester, the
school has outf1tted several addi-
tional radio shops and has arranged
for additional radio instructors.
To Stress Practically
The radio repair and service
course is designed to give the stu
dent a thorough training in the
practical work and to equip him to
hold position. The same proce-
dure Is followed with the radio code
and the radio communications
courses. The radio communications
course trains the graduate to pass
the Federal Communications Com
missions examinations for second
class radiotelephone or radiotele-
graph operator, restricted operator
and amateur operator. The courses
are held two or three evenings per
week and are completed over a pc
riod OF four and half months.
A new catalogue describing the
schools radio courses has just come
of the press and is available for
free distribution. There is also
new engineering folder.
Trained counselors are at the.
school office each day and evening

, The policy of keeping transporta-
tion on railroads and buses free
from rationing, such as was i'm
posed on airlines through a system
OF priorities, will undergo its most
severe test next holiday week end.
Wartime experience has taught
transportation companies to prepare
for a deluge of customers on holi-
days, and the surge on previous oc-
casions has nearly broken the back
of the Herculean effort to serve all
corners, regardless of their need to
travel. Labor Day, coming attached
to week end, will present a par
tieularly critical situation.
In addition, railroad and bus
traffic men sense now certain
restlessness of the public, with the
summer practically ending, to 60
places-a longing to break the bonds
that have held them to their jobs
through the steamy months. But
the coming week end is no time to
relax in the keep-off -the-trains ad-

summer attractions and activities
will be continued, including beach

Percy H. Jackson, director of pub
lie affairs for the Cape May IN. j.
County Board, quotes resort busi-
nessmen as saying that their enter
prises will remain open "as long as
vacationists and visitors are here"
This includes the popular boardwalk
amusement and fishing piers.
Virginia Beach Is emphasizing the
inducement that the visitor will
find vacation weather next month
somewhat akin to June, when the
summer season opens. The Chamber
OF Commerce passes along official
statistics showing that Septemuer's
average sea surface temperature is
So degrees higher than in June. Oc-
tober's average sea surface temper

In listing the attractions of Sep

will be less, particularly for cot
tages; that the crowds on buses
and trains will have thinned. This
forecast may come true to some ex-
tent, but travel, we'll into October.

DR.. Hu Shih to Advise
Library of Conuress

DR.. HUI Shih, former Chinese Am
bassador to the United States, will

adviser to the Library of Congress,

building up of the Library's exten-

liberalization of the present policy
would permit trips without "vaca-
tion visas" on September's popular
holiday. The disposition of families
to take to the road on such holi-
days was given consideration before
the promise was voiced. and factor
in the decision may have been a
desire to present crackup in public
transportation.
That faction of the motoring pub
lie which tries to read trends in
policies realizes, however, that ex-
cessive gas consumption over the
Labor Day week end may soar to
such heights as to become, by acci-
dent or design, horrible example
OF what the public does when re-
strictions are lifted. Depletion of
gas stocks, or even a heavy drain.
might be used as lever to tighten
up again. General intemperance
in the use Of cars at least would
delay a partial restoration of coupon
values.
AS has been pointed out here be-
fore, the advent of September no
longer spells the end of summer
vacations. So civilian furloughs"
safely can be postponed until after
Labor Day. Indeed, unless one al
ready has holiday reservations, the
chances of being able to light on an
acceptable vacation perch are slim
to the point of being imaginary.
Latest advices from popular sea-
shore and mountain resorts confirm
predictions that hotels and beaches
will stay open as long as inquiries
continue reasonably heavy. In some
cases. this period extends into
October.
