Legislature Approves Student Fees Amendment Registration For Spring Set At 3571 By Sylvan Meyer Tabulations completed yesterday by the Central Records Office showed a total of 3571 students registered for the spring quarter, approximately 70 less than last quarter, representing 45 states, many foreign countries. Of this number 535 are women, 3036 are men. Mr. I. C. Griffin, Central Records director, has broken tabula tions down into myriad classifications, omitting not one vital statistic. This five-to-one male-female ratio indicates a drop in the number of coeds of about 85, most of which is in the graduate school enrollment. First-year enrollment dropped to 704 in the General college, which incident ally, is the only place where there are any freshmen at all. Six hundred and seventy-seven sophomores are walking on the grass this quarter, in addition to 44 frosh, 33 sophs in med school and 36 frosh, 30 sophs in pharmacy school. Junior Class Enrollment Including juniors running for campus offices Tuesday, the third-year class has accumulated 547 in Arts and Sciences, 209 in Commerce, 29 in Pharmacy a total of 785 rising seniors. Those people walking around with expectant faces, haggard with worry and comprehensives are seniors. There are 403 of them in Arts and Sciences, 191 in Commerce, 31 in Pharmacy totaling 625. Abrupt reduction in enrollment be tween junior and senior classes shows over 125 less in Arts and Sciences, 18 less in Commerce, and unaccountably 2 more in Pharmacy. General colleere showed a total en rollment of 1388, Arts and Sciences of 984, Commerce of 404. Total of juniors and seniors in these two branches is exactly that of General College 1388. This is not due to the tenacity of lower classmen, but to the large number of transfer students who enter Carolina in their junior year. There are 2776 under graduates in the University, including 45 special students. Scores from other states are: Ala bama 28, Arkansas 4, California 7, Colorado 2, Connecticut 44, Delaware 11, Florida 77, Georgia 76, Idaho 2, Il linois 21, Indiana 4, Iowa 1, Kansas 2, Kentucky 14, Louisiana 19, Maine 2, Maryland 26, Massachusetts 25, Michi-. gan 9, Minnesota 1, Mississippi 12, Missouri 4, Montana 1, New Hamp shire 4, New Mexico 1, Ohio 26, Okla homa 2, Oregon 3, Pennsylvania 92, Rhode Island 2, South Carolina 91, Tennessee 27, Texas 9, Virginia 97, Washington 5, West Virginia 20, Wis consin 4, Wyoming 1, District of Co lumbia 41, and foreign 10.

Ultimate instigation of the plan now seems certain. Indications are that the student body will ratify the amend ment at the polls next Tuesday. The University administration has already informally approved and will prob ably recommend the plan to the Board of Trustees, the final authority. Intelligent Discussion In an hour and a half session which heard the fullest and most intelligent discussion shown in the legislature all year, Chairman Terry Sanford of the ways and means committee an swered question .after question until the bill was fully explained. Only opponents to the proposal were representatives Andy Gennett, Bill Ward and Roy Parker. Gennett, Publications Union board member, opposed giving the legisla ture power over the board's invest ments and its annual appropriations.

Sanford, asserting that it did, called the fees amendment the most signifi- See FEES BILL, page 4.
