Washington. Nov. ie. CuPD-The more than 2.062. 900 young men and women who managed to get into Americas crowded colleges this Fall should count themselves inc creasingly lucky as the year goes on.
 The enrolment is half again as big as the previous record.
 Educators report more and more Qualifled youths and clamoring for higher education. But the na- tion's universities and colleges are already filled to near capacity.
 Only a relative handful of new students can be accommodated when new terms begin this Winter. Most of Students Rejected
 Dr. Francis J. Brown, executive secretary of the Presidents Com- mission on Higher Education, esu- mated today that the completion of emergency campus housing with in the next few months may make room for an additional 100000 stu- dents.
 But most Of the young men and women who want to enroll in the countryis l3i big name schools and most of them seem to-will be disappointed.
 Some of them can get in if they are willing to go to less-known schools or attend branch extension centers.

Enrolment at Colleges ShOUs 50 Percent Hike


 Thousands of would-be collegians however,, have spurned backwater or makeshift schools and are wait ing in hopes Of being accepted even- tually by the institutions of their choice, Brown said.
 Estimate Too Low
 "As the year gees on," Brown said, "there'll be an increasing sur- plus of young men and women who want to go to college. They cant all go to the famous schools. They'll have to settle for something less or nothing for the present"
 Since June. Brown pointed out, veterans have applied for certifica- ton for school under the CT Bill of Rights at a 500,O0O a month pace. A total of 5000 900 have applied since the program was set up. This is five times the number of ap- plicants estimated at the time the legislation was drawn. Brown said. These figures include those who sought certification for ell kinds of educational courses-not just college work.
 Reports to the U. s. once of Education show a present country wide college and university enroll- ment of 2.O62. 1000. of whom i,073, ,0OC were veterans.
 Of the total. i.405. 900 are men and 057, 900 women--the largest en- rOllment of women in American
