E INCREASE IN-NUMBER YOUTHS ENTERING COLLEGE i New York, Oct. I).—American youths entering college haye increased in num- bers at a record fate’dufing the past six years and if the proportionate growth is continued to 1950 there be 1,138, 000 students in 210, institution Where 294,000 were “enrolled last year. , THese! figures, compiled by the Institute for Pub- lic Service, have raised the Tquestion of where the money needed to educate ths largr groups will core from. Julius H. Barnes, chairman of the In- stitygte, found fn a study of ‘the figures compiled that this year's increase in the number of students enrolled in the col- colleges has et a new record. N Colleges which in 1914* had 187,000 students and last year 294,000 wwill en roll 471,000 in 1930 and §31,000 in 1950, it they continue the same number in- crease each vear a report of the Insti- tute states. But, it they grow at the av- f “means finding facilities for more than three times the. total for 1920 at six or seven fimes the salary cost.” sald the' re- port. “it means adding 644,000 students, or 200 colleges the sige of Yale last year. The Institute asks, “Will the money to provide- education for the increased num- ber of students come from taxation, en- dowment, private gifts and larger fies? Must present universities grow or more universities be built 7} In numbers, the largest increase in six ars is_creditéd to the College of the v of New York with a growth of 6, 8§00, followed by the Univessity of Cail- fornia with 6,200 increase and Boston Universify with 4,700. Yale was one of four institutions w h had fewer "stu- dents than six years azo, its decrease be- ing 81, the Institute rcported. Concluding his observations, Mr. Barnes said there is “reason to Uelieve tha in any future“demoératizing of opportunities for higher education, afternoon -and night classes “at ®o]leges and enextsion class- ©s away from colleges will be needed to give the lacticity which' the demand re- quires.” COX RESTS PREPARATORY ¥ FOR STRENUOUS WEEK a Springfield, Ills., -Oct. 10.—Governor Cox of Ohio spent a quiet Sunday here, resting in preparation for continupation of his campaign tomorrow.

Harding wants a leagile that will be constituted more 1 1ik& a court.
