A tidal wave enrolment
will hit the colleges in the
next two years. We have been
warned repeatedly that en-
rollments will double between
1860 and 1870. What has not
been understood generally is
that half of this 10-year in
crease in applicants will come
in the 1963-1964 and 1854
1865 academic years!
AS a result, colleges and
universities are faced with a
challenge greater than that
Immediately following World
War II when ex-GI's were
entering In droves.
These are elements that
make the present problem
more difficult:
The flood Of students will
be without the Federal Aid
provided for the GI's.
The new applicants will be
younger and less determined.
They will lack experience.
They will lack the clearly
defined goals Of the more
mature CT students.
On the positive side, there
was warning and prepara-
tions are being made to cope
with the problem.
More Money Available
State legislatures across
the country appropriated
$1.8 billion in State tax funds
for higher education in 1852
So, a gain of 24.5 per cent
over a two-year period.
This compares with an in
crease of 22.7 per cent in
the previous two-year period,
ls59-6l. State tax appropria-
tions must be compared on a
two-year basis, since most
State legislatures make BIZ
annual appropriations.

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: My
husband has been bitten by
the skin diving bug. Al
though he is a good SWIM
mer, it makes me nervous
to think Of his engaging in
this sport.
He Is the sort Of person
who panics easily; besides
he has had sinus trouble for
many years. I've heard that
people with sinusitis should
not take up skin diving. He
is buying a lot of diving
equipment, but before he ac-
tually takes part In diving. I'd
appreciate a few words from
you on the dangers. Mrs. B.
FROM WHAT 1 have
heard, people with sinus in
fections should not become
skin divers. This is also true
for those who have ear in
fections. This, in itself, seems
to be q negative answer as
far as your husband is con-
cerned. In addition, his
tendency to go to pieces dur
ing emergencies is another
reason why he should con-
slider carefully before going
ahead.
Panic under water can be
a serious hazard to life. In
Worldwide Abstracts I have
been reading some good tips
on the sport by G. d. Davis
Of Canberra and Bill Rowe
Of Sydney which first ap-
peared in the Medical Jour-
nal of Australia.
For example, a diver who
is having sinusitis might be
able to descend even though
he is having pain due to the
air which is forced into the
sinuses under pressure; but
as he comes UP later he will
likely suffer excruciating
pain.
Consider the apparently
simple procedure Of using ear
plugs. They should not be
used In a free descent; and
definitely not when using a
compressed air unit, for the
ear drum may rupture and
the plug forced deep into
the ear canal by pressure as
the diver goes deeper.
No doubt you have heard
Of other possible complica-
tions such as pneumonia. and
air embolism due to such
gases as carbon dioxide, nj
trogen or oxygen. And this
should interest your husband.
who ! hope is not a head
strong individual who will
still insist on diving: Panic
often causes drowning and is
one Of the commonest causes
Of diving fatalities.
HERE ARE some impor-
tant tips TO people who are
physically and emotionally
suited TO taking up the In
teresting sport Of skin-div-
ing:
Don't take alcohol or
cigarettes In the hour before
the dive. Don't dive directly
after a meal. Check the div
ing apparatus carefully for
leaks and proper gas mix
ture. Never dive alone. Don't
stay down II you are excess
sively cold and shivering. On
coming TO the surface. espe-
cially from great depths,
don't hold your breath but
keep exhaling.

vision and In the movies. /
