The previous record enroll ment was 1,504 set last term. Late registrations because of delayed transcripts, illness or other reasons may swell the record enrollment more, Dr. Stevenson noted. Dr. Stevenson said there are a number of factors which contribute to the Increased enrollment. Among them are Increased curriculum offerings, includ ing a more flexible general studies degree which allows students to obtain a four-year degree; teacher education which reflects the training in these fields and the fact that conditions for teachers have improved; and the master's degree program, which is now on an all year basis instead of limited to the summer ses sions. Dr. Stevenson noted that there has been an increasing retention rate for students. This, he said, is caused by a new guidance -and counseling program in order to combat the "drop out" problem com mon lo lower-division stu dents in colleges. He noted that the number of students new to the collcee has increased by more than 70 per cent, a condition which he ascribed in part to the fact that young people of today are becoming more aware of the need for higher education.

Win-1 ton Hunt (R-Woodburn) said today he has a bill prepared j for repeal of the controver sial 1961 ambulance law in ! the 1963 legislature. Hunt said the 1961 bill, which he voted against,! "sneaked into the legislature" ! and was "poor legislation to j begin with." , I This Is the law accompa- j nied by regulations by the I Slate Board of Health that many volunteer ambulance j operators have hotly protest-1 cd. Supporters say it is in-, tended lo upgrade the ambu lance profession, but volun teer operators say such pro visions as new fees and uni forms are putting them out of business. Various amendments have been proposed, but Hunt said that unless someone can prove to him the law can be great ly overhauled, he will press for total repeal. Hunt said he has had com plaints from ambulance dri vers at Woodburn and Silver ton and letters from Bend and other areas. TONIGHT ROAD SHOW ENGAGEMENT!
