UNITED NATIONS HALL, FLUSHING, N. Y., Sept. 16—(UP) —The United Nations general assembly, beginning a momentous “war-or-peace” session, was asked by the United States tonight to speed creation of an international police force and give a thorough airing to Soviet “misuse” of the veto.
Warren Austin, permanent American delegate to UN, challenged the assembly to tackle world problems boldly, lest they be “bottled up to ferment and explode.”

FIRST ELECTION
Foremost item of business confronting both political parties and the senate is the election of a freshman class president and the sena-tors-at-large provided for by the new ASSC constitution.
Date of the election and election procedure will be decided upon tonight. The constitution provides that senators-at-large be elected by the Hare proportional representation method.
Dr. Fred D. Fagg Jr., president of the university, now has the new constitution under consideration for possible approval, and it is expected that Unity party members will devote their efforts toward capturing a majority of the senators-at-large seats to bolster their position on the senate, while the EFC will use its well-knit organization to maintain its lopsided strength. *
DELAY FOR USNSA
Outside purely campus matters, the senate will also consider a brief report from the delegates to the recent constitutional convention of the United States National Students association.
SC participation in the USNSA appears headed for some delay, since the delegates, Paul Wildman, John Houk, Milt Dobkin. Pat Hillings, and Diane Lockhart will meet Thursday to prepare a more comprehensive report, which will not be submitted to the senate until its second meeting.
A report of orientation committee activities will be given by Chairman John Davis.
APPOINTMENTS
Homecoming, Student Union committee, and Greater University committee chairmen will be appointed at tonight's meeting, according to Wildman, ASSC president. Also planned is expansion of the activities of the Greater University committee to effect further participation by alumni.
Plans for the first all-university dance and rally and for consolidation of Troy’s numerous charity drives into one huge drive will be presented by Jea Morf, ASSC vice-president.
The meeting is scheduled for 7:15 tonight in the senate chambers, fourth floor, Student Union. It is open to any member of the student body.
Enrollment Records Fall; Total! Figures Still Unknown
----1 surpassing last fall’s enrollment records by 1000 students
on the opening day of school, new students rushing to complete their registration have delayed the task of totaling the number of students attending classes on campus this fall, according to Howard W. Patmore, registrar. 6500 students were known to have enrolled during i
the two-week pre-registration period this summer.
In order to handle the record-breaking crowd, the business offices have had to increase their staffs, with 45 new workers being added tc the registrar’s office alone. The veterans officers are occupied with
The registrar's office will be open from 5:00 to 7:30 every night in order to handle registration for the late afternoon and evening classes which still haven’t been filfed, Howard TV'. Patmore, registrar, announced today.

The I scene in the bookstore office up-j stairs shows secretaries busily totaling each individual sales slip. These slips are later stored in one of the five large crate boxes which have been accumulated during the three-day rush.
NIGHT RECORDS SET Carl Hancey, dean of University College, reports that judging from the demands for courses there, the registration for night classes will far exceed all previous records. He further stated that Monday’s enrollment of 700 was the heaviest per day in the history of University College. With students still being admitted, the total to date is in excess of 6000.
Although registration for University College will continue until Sept. 27 before payments of a late fee is charged, day-school students are already being assessed a $5 fee for late registration. This sum will remain the same during this week but will double for each ensuing week.
TOTAL UNKNOWN Total figures for the fall semester will not be known until later in the week when late students have finished registration, and the final tabulation has been taken.
It is expected that SC will surpass by more than 1000 the number of students registering last year, despite the number of students who have been forced to drop school for financial or other reasons.
