Crowding Causes Saturday Classes Insufficient space, crowded fa cilities and alternate hours to es cape conflicting hours in students' curricula were given as reasons for the Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday classes by Mr. L. C. Constance, as sistant registrar, Tuesday. Most of these three hour courses are found in the English compo sition department and the physical education school with a few classes in the speech department. Rhetoric, mainly a freshman course, is unduly crowded because of the large enrollment of this year’s beginning class. Physical education facilities, never ample to handle all demands, are being taxed to provide classes for all students required to enroll in these activities. To date, until building and equipment programs are enlarged, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday classes appear to be the only solution, although they have the blessings of few concerned, either students or faculty members, cam pus opinion indicates.
