At this meeting Valma Sneilstrom, program chairman, will explain the requirements for judging and other details.

This is your show and each organization will enter an act in competition for the three permanent trophies offered for first, second, and third prize. “Entries may consist of skits, dances, magic acts, singing, slapstick routines, and so forth. . . . There will be preliminary eliminations, with the final judging in McArthur court Friday, April 15, the date of the show. j “Tickets will be sold not only on the campus, but in downtown Eugene, and from door to door throughout the residential districts.

Unless substantial numbers com plete registration this week over 3000 students will have to register March 28, registration day of next term, he said. This week is the last of pre-reg istration, which ends at noon Sat urday. Although most of the stu dent body picked up their registra tion material and filled out their class cards, most of them have not checked with the housing secretary, paid their fees and turned in their material. First Comers Kate In case of any classes being too full students who have officially been registered will have prefer ence. Also, if there arc large num bers of students registering at the first of next term, many will be forced to register late, and late reg istration fees will not be waived. Comparing the 2150 who have signed up this term to the 4007 who finished their registration early last term, Kline warned that there will be some long lines on March 2S. Two-Thirds Veterans Over two-thirds of those signed up this term are veterans. All stu dents who have completed the ini tial steps are urged to complete their registration as soon as possi ble. Although the final steps may be finished this week, the various schools and departments are not signing students up for classes now. This was to have been completed last week, and any further regis tration for classes will have to be done at the beginning of next term.
