Y Cabinet Holds Retreat at Jasper Jasper was the scene of a plan ning retreat of the University YWCA cabinet Tuesday.

Oregana Safes Number 1200 As of early Thursday afternoon approximately 1200 Oreganas had been sold at the sales table In the Student Union. Sales Man ager Mary Hyde reported that sales had been going fairly well among upper-classmen, but that the new student sales had been disappointing. The poor percentage of fresh men subscribers was attributed by Oregana workers primarily to the fact that many of the new students are unaware that they can pay for their Oregana in ad vance along with their other tui tion fees. Sales to date this year are re ported about the same as in years past and if present estimates are correct the sales total will reach 2,000 by the end of the week. The sales department of the Oregana has set a tentative goal of be tween 2,200 and 2,400 for total sales for the year.

Constance, registrar. *• Late fees will be assessed after that time at the rate of one dollar per flay for regular students with seven hours or more an<i one dollar per week for »pe- ; eiai students taking six hours or I less. An estimated 4200 students filled registration lines through- i out the week. Karly estimates j place the size of the freshman class at 1300, a substantial in crease from the 1953 figure. Registration officials stressed the fact that partial completion of registration does not entitle students to University privileges. Only with the student body card received upon payment of fees may persona obtain their ath letic ticket, free concert admis-; sions, and library and academic I privileges. Steps in registration are: 1. Obtaining registration ma terial in the Student Union 214. Remaining material will be moved from the SL' to the ' registrar’s office .Monday. 2. Building a study program with the adviser’s approval. The student's time schedule should then be copied on the registration card and the stu dent grade and class cards. 3.

A long standing tradition will be revived this year: the wearing of the green and yellow “lids.” After Oregon wins a game, the hats are to be worn with the green side out. After an Oregon loss, the hats will be reversed so that the yellow side shows. For the Stanford game, freshmen will wear their "lids” with the green showing, because of the Webfoots' victory over Idaho last week.

The Prince is a full-blooded Yuroc Indian. He was adopted as mascot for Stanford three years ago. An ardent Stanford rooter, Prince Lightfoot is not a student, but an independent performer. He will wear a white-beaded buckskin outfit and a long feath ered headdress at the game, ac cording to Williams.
