The number of German troops es tablished on Rumanian soil may reach a total of 50,000 to protect Rumania's vital oil fields against British sabot age usually well-informed Rumanian sources said.

Secretary of State Adolph H. Berle, speaking under the auspices of the International Rela tions club last night in Memorial hall, lashed out bitterly against the tactics of forceful-minded nations and simul taneously pointed out that existing differences between the United States and Japan were more than "tin and rubber."

Mistaken Identity Of course a year never goes by without a case of mistaken identity. A member of Zeta Psi valiantly tried to pledge Bob Rose of basketball fame to his fraternity, not knowing of course that Bob is a member of Kap pa Sigma. And there is the story of the house boy at Chi Phi who became so rattled when the freshmen invaded the frat house that he dropped a tray of dishes down the stairs causing lit tle breakage and much embarrass ment. . . One freshman who for the life of him couldn't remember his hosts name vainly floundered around for a moment and finally blurted out to a friend, "Joe I want you to meet Mr. How Do You Do." Hopkins' Son Accused One always finds political discus sions in full swing soon after the freshman becomes slightly acclimated. Bob Hopkins, son of the former Sec retary of Commerce, was asked if the politically active Hopkins in a nearby j city were any relations. When Bob found out that the Hopkins in ques tion were Republicans he quietly re marked, "They must be of a different family." Alpha Tau Omega is seriously con sidering the installation of a ventilat ing system. Members reported that freshman were so warm and general ly ill at ease some one might have thouerht they they were being sub jected to a sweat box treatment. . (By Associated Collegiate Press) The nation's college students are not being permitted to forget that the United States is straining every effort toward strengthening the na tional defense. Men within the draft ages of 21 through 35 who are now registered in "college have been automatically deferred from compulsory military training, at least until July of next year, although they will be required to register October 16 with all other men of those ages. At the same time men and women of college age have been urged by President Roosevelt to continue their, college educations. Nevertheless, the nation's col legians are being made to realize they are an important link in pre paredness plans. Typical of defense messages to students at scores of colleges was that presented by Dean Virginia C. Gildersleeve of Barnard college, New York. It is more important, said she, for students to continue their college educations until need ed than to participate actively in helping their country. . Dean Gildersleeve explained that should the stream of students stop, the country would find itself short of trained and educated citizens. Are You Identified?
