Enrollment Falls
Froml950Total
A drop in registration of 1,001
students from last year was indi
cated Wednesday in figures re
leased by Registrar Clifford Con
stance.
Cash register receipts show that
3,218 students have completed
registration for winter term. On
the same day last year, 4-219 stu
dents had completed the process.
The University enrolled 5,614 stu
dents last winter term.
During pre-registration, 1,118
students completed the registra
tion process.
The 3,218 total, said Constance,
is not completely indicative of the
actual number of registrants. Al
though payment of fees completes
the registration process, things
other than fees are recorded on
the cash register and this figure
may include other payments be
sides registration fees.
The deadline for payment of fees
is Saturday. Students paying fees
after that date must pay the late
fee. All registration must be com
pleted by Jan. 15. This includes
course changes.

Any harm in a nap after
" Dinner?
To most of us a nap after Thanksgiving din
ner is as much a part of Thanksgiving as the
turkey itself. And there’s no harm in that if
we don’t stay asleep to the responsibilities
that go with the good things we have to be
thankful for . . . the good things we enjoy
only because we are a free people.
But too many of us go right on napping
year after year.
45 million Americans failed to exercise
their right to vote in the last presidential
election! They were asleep to one of the
most fundamental duties of free Americans.
How many millions more of ns are asleep
to our other duties as citizens of a democ
racy? How many of us are napping when
we should get out to our Town Meetings
and other civic government groups? How
many millions of us pay union dues and
don’t vote in union elections — own stock
but throw away our proxies? How many of
us dodge jury duty?
These are our rights as free people! These
are the rights we’d all hate to lose—yet so
many of us do so little to help keep them.
We must do more than give thanks for the
good things freedom gives us—on Thanks
giving or any other day of the year. We
must work to keep our freedom. We have a
government “of the people”—and only the
people themselves can make it work right!
It takes 150 million full-time, wide-awake
citizens to keep our democracy going ——
to keep it going strong!
