All Ohio High School Graduates Who
Apply Will Be Admitted by Ohio State

and the department of occupa-
tional thereapy.
Candidates for the University s
graduate school, who qualify
scholastically, will be admitted
regardless of their residence.
The policy of giving priority to
the enrolment of OhioanS in the
University was adopted at the
beginning of 1916 by Board OF
Trustee action. Facilities were be-
ing taxed at that time by the in
creased enrolment of Ohio vet
Grams, making it necessary to
restrict out-of-state student ad-
missions.
To-day" President Bevis said,
"Ohio State University's facili-
ties for classrooms, eating, and
housing, as far as single students
are concerned, are adequate for
handling all Ohio men and wom-
en- who want to enroll. We are not
yet prepared, however, to open
unlimited admissions to out-of-
state residents.

Dairymen Promoting Sales Of Their
Products in Campaign During June

during June Dairy Month is the
ice cream and cake promotion
sponsored by the American Dairy
Association in cooperation with
the International Ice Cream Man.

ing manufacturers of cake flours
One big flour mill has more
than 800 statesmen throughout the
country concentrating this month
on the ice cream and cake pro.
gram. Featured in the campaign
is the most revolutionary cake
baking idea of the century. Never
before has so much sales power
been put behind ice cream ir
June and July.
Colorful advertising that will
reach into more than 38 million
homes is the No. l sales force
Ads of the American Dairy AS
sociation will spotlight ice cream
and cake. The same combination
will receive extra sales impetus
at no extra cost to the ADA
though the nationwide advertis-
ing program of cake flour manu-
facturerS.
In April and May, cooperatives
efforts of the ADA with the Cling
Peach Advisory Board placed
colorful ads in leading magazines
and newspapers reaching "a mil
lion homes, distributed 100000
color salad posters in stores and
restaurants, and delivered 2
million recipe leaflets house to
house by dairy plants.
Many products that compete
with dairy foods have a much
larger advertising and merchand-
ising budget than the IL million
dollar budget of the ADA. For
example the California Fruit
Growers Exchange have a $4,000
900 budget; cigarettes, Sl2,OOO,O0O
and liquors Sl00,000,00O.
"Only by every dairyman max
ing a small set-aside of 4 cents
for each one-hundred pounds of
milk sold during the first Is days
of June, or | cent per pound OF
butterfat, can the dairy industry
hope to meet the competition IN
today's food market" declared
Mr.. Polling.

Illegal Sale Of
Seed is Reported

Illegal sale of agricultural seed
is prevalent in certain sections OF
Ohio according to Agriculture
Department Dir tor, Frank
Farnsworth. Inspectors of the
Division of Plant Industry have
been investigating seed sale cent
ers for the past few months Re-
porting to Division chief, John
w. Baringer, they cite infractions
of the law such as seed for sale
without out-of-date termination
statements, unlabeled seed and
unlicensed dealers.
Compliance has been general
ly good" said Farnsworth, bue
we have uncovered some cases
where seed is being sold unlaw-
fully and such dealers face prose
cution unless they secure licenses
and rectify other malpractices
Immediately.
Many hybrid corn statesmen
have for instance, inadvertently
become dealers, currently operat-
ing without licenses, by merely
stocking surplus seed, selling
cancelled order seed and, in some
instances, selling grass seed such
as clover and timothy" said
FarnSworth.

Ohio Seed Law and license ap.
plications can be secured from
