Freshmen and new coeds atiempi io find their way through the maze erected in Woollen Gymnasium for registration. Held Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, registra tion was no different from those of the past as remembered by up per classmen, although the administration reports it ran "more smoihly than usual." The same old story of confusion, cussing, a constant rumble, and lost souls underwent its annual reliving. But as one of the more cool-headed freshmen observed, "What the heck, it only happens once in a life-time, and a day can't last but so long." William Wells Resigns Post Dean William Wells, head of the College of Arts and Sciences has resigned his post, effective August 31, to take up full teach ing duties in the English depart ment. ; Chancellor House is consider ing a new appointment for the job but no announcement has been made. When takiug the post five" years ago, Wells, indicated he would only serve one term. Reappoint ments are made every five years. But University authorities tried to persuade him to continue the job. As dean of Arts and Sciences, he was also Chairman Pro-Tern of the Faculty and headed sever ar important administrative com mittees. - - Wells will concentrate on in struction of the Renaissance Period. He is an expert on the poet, Edmond Spenser . The job of. dean of the College of Arts and Sciences is second only to the Chancellor's in ac ademic, matters, Dean Corydon Spruill, Dean of the General College, is acting as temporary chairman until a new appoint ment is made. " Four Basements Use Because of the decreased space in dormitories created by the switch from three men to a room to two, the housing situation on campus is still - critical, according Free Money At Laundry The Laundry Office has money on hand-it is just begging to give away, laundry officials announced yesterday, that is, give away to people who have laundry refunds coming to them from summer school. "- ' . - "We have hundreds of refund checks that we would like very much to give to the people to whom they belong in order, that we can clear our books," said the official. . ; "Perhaps many students do not know that they have refunds coming to them," he said,"but if anyone is in doubt we wish they would check by and find out. Registration, the ordeal that ranks alongside infirmary phy sical examinations in the imagina tion of the "entering student, was moving along smoothly Tuesday and Wednesday. ' - Stricter requirement that all students present permits to re gister and the more systematic use of the appointment cards helped eliminate a tangle of stu dents in front of Woollen Gym, according to R. E. Strong who supervised registration. , Official? figures - on enrollment had not been released yesterday, but Roy Armstrong, director of admissions, termed enrollment "lighter than last year." Total en rollment for the 1950 fall quarter was 6,864.

Coed enrollment was estimated as "approximately the same" as last year's total of 929. Students emerging from the organized confusion of registra tion seemed to the casual by stander just as relieved if not so befuddled as just-registered stu dents of the year before. There was only one desk in the gym that a nice-looking coed couldn't understand. "There was a boy sitting there," she told her roommate, "and I can't see why he asked for my address and phone number, because the leaf let the handed me just welcomed freshman boys to the Y.M.C.A.'

There are no rooms left and four dorm basements, including Alexander, Stacy, A and C, are housing from 12 to 20 students each. At the last moment A Dorm and Alexander were switch ed from 2 to 3 men room dormi tories to help overcome the criti cal condition. Althoueh Victorv Village and Glen Lennox have no vacancies, homes for their families in town. An estimated 150 students, who have been readmitted, transfer red, or are here for the first time, are without rooms, but Wads worfh indicated that all will have rooms, in . town or other places shortly. "We urge all students to let ua know when they vacate theif dorm rooms or know of vacancies in dorm rooms," Wadsworth said. The housing picture for women students is good.
