It will include accurate ad dress and student number in formation which will eliminate many of the problems now en countered in these areas, Carl son said. Class sectioning is also slated for development in the process. This will entail filling out a form indicating the student's desired classes and his identifi cation material.

Communication Aids Coaches In New Stadium The University’s new Autzen Stadium has brought to a close the days when football coaches depended upon lung power to transmit orders to each other and to players Through the workings of Pa cific Northwest Bell, technical service and assistance is given to the various groups needing communications — either inside the stadium or from it. One of the most important types of communication in terms of the game itselr is the hook up of a circuit from the "spot ter" in the press box to other members of the coaching stall down on the playing field. The spotter, from his vantage point 110 feet above the play ers, can see play possibilities or weaknesses in the opposing line's defense which are not as easy to see at eye level. Television stations require the highest standard of work by technicians to insure a "good signal." Audio portions are handled like those of a radio station, with circuits being set up from the stadium to the TV station home broadcasting plant.

SERVICE Call 345-4823 Herbert Penny, Assistant to the President, said Monday "all registered students are having their grade records maintain ed.” It was also rumored a lack of funds in connection with the computer processing made it impossible to complete the rosters accurately. This is not correct, according to Mrs. Dorothy Brown, As sistant Registrar. She said all rosters will be- updated and re submitted to the professors when grade cards are issued. Although there may not be enough funds to advance the program at this time, the pres ent program should be main tained as it is, according to Penny. The additional steps to be in stituted in the program will de pend on future funds made available to the program, he said. G.l.

Each eligible veteran who served more than 130 days re ceives a direct assistance al lowance, or what used to be called a subsistance check un der the old bill, of $130 for a single man to $175 and up per month according to marital status and number of children. The checks make it possible for more of the veterans to get a college education than nor mally would without this re source, Freauff pointed out. “The effect on the campus of increasing the average age of the student body by veterans turning student should prove interesting, although it will never reach the same height as was felt in the World War II dominated student body enroll ment,” he said.
