The mad scramble known as fall registration begins tomorrow with between 9000 and 10,000 men and women expected to enroll in day classes.
Willis Duniway, press relations manager, department of development, said that with the decrease of veteran students, it was likely the enrollment would not exceed the 10,500 mark of last spring. He added, however, that a large freshman class was anticipated and might bring the daytime enrollment up to last year’s level. In Phys Ed Building
Returning students begin registration tomorrow and new students start Wednesday. As usual, registration will be conducted in the Physical Education building.
Due to a large mail registration, it w ill be less tedious than in the" past. Registrar Howard Patmore said that approximately 3000 students have registered by mail and he felt the program was “quite a success.”
Urges Early Payment Mr. Patmore also urged students to be sure and pay their fee bill promptly and avoid having to pay the increased rate fee. Students will have to pay thc increased fee beginning Saturday noon.
Registration will be done alpna-betically. %

DENTAL CLINIC OPENS
With the completion of the new million-dollar-plus dental building came the end of SC’s three year program which transformed $10 million into new buildings.
The dental building is now ready for occupation, filling cavities, and setting of gold inlays.
The clinic is located on 34th street west of Hoover street.
Summer session dental students already sampled the new building which was completed June 30.
Full use of the dental clinic,1 It is one of the most complete w’hich will accommodate 200 stu- j clinics in Los Angeles, according dents' and 12,000 patient visits to Dr. Alan C. Prather, Associate yearly, will begin at the start of Clinical professor of oral diagno-the semester. sis.

They will tour SC in groups of 10, accompanied by a Knight, Squire and APhiO men, ,who will point out the various buildings and describe their uses. The new men are to meet their guides in front of Bovard auditorium. Standing on either side of the front walk, the guides can be distinguished by tfie black, maroon, and yellow sweaters they will be wearing.
Each new man will have a number on his “Welcome to SC” tag. After the assembly he is to go outside and find the Knight holding up a large white card with the numeral printed on it w’hich corresponds with his own.
‘The tour is scheduled to last from 11 a.m. to noon," said Harry Merrill, Knight orientation chairman, “when they will be accompanied to lunch in the Commons by their guides.”
As there will be only 10 students in each group, Merrill estimated there will be about 40 groups leaving Bovard both Monday and Tuesday.

After receiving his induction notice, the student is advised to obtain from the college or university a letter affirming that he is qualified for a I-S deferment.
It is requested that these letters be prepared on the stationery of j the school, and that they include $| the registrant's name, his Selec- ? tive Service Number and an offi- J cir i statement, stamped with the official seal of the school, that the student is satisfactorily pursuing a course of instruction.

requirements has an excellent chance to get into the program.” Entrance deadline is Friday, Sept. 12.
Both of the ROTC programs are designed to compliment the academic curriculum of the University with military training and to enable students to earn a regular or reserve commission in the Air Force or Navy at the time of their graduation.
In order to be eiigible for AFROTC, the student must be regularly enrolled at the university and physically qualified. He must be able to complete the ROTC course before reaching his 28th birthday.

The AFROTC course is a four year plan, the student starting the program as a freshman. In certain cases students who definitely plan a five year curriculum may be eligible to enter at the beginning of their second year of college.

Speeches, Tours Included in Plans For Orientation
By Gene Williams
Stressing friendliness and a chance to have a look at SC and its campus life, two Troy Days will be held today and tomorrow for some 1300 incoming freshmen, transfer students, and graduate students.
First-day exercises will start this morning at 10 for some 700 freshman men and women, with a simple program of introductions, campus tours, explanation of registration procedures, and counseling in store for the neophyte Trojans.
Tuesday’s orientation program will follow the same lines as today’s except it will deal with transfer and graduate students.
The program will open at 10 a.m., and continue on the same schedule, except for a graduate assmb-ly at 1:30 in 133 Foundrs hall.
Bovard Assembly Kicking off today’s activities will be a “Get Acquainted” assembly in Bovard auditorium. Roy Foreman, orientation chairman, has set up a program including greetings from President Fred D.
Fagg, ASSC President Wendell Casey, and Dean of Students Bernard L. Hyink. Dr. Hyink will act as master of ccremonies and conduct the rest of the program.
Head Football Coach Jess Hill will give the new students the low-down on this fall’s Trojan prospects. In keeping with this theme, SC’s yell leaders will be in videpce» to lead cheers and songs.
Registration Details Dr. H. J. Sheffield, director of admissions, and Howard W. aPt-more, registrar, will enlighten the new students on the hazards of registration. After the explanations are made, each attendee will receive his registration materials.
Following this, Knight Harry Merrill, orientation chairman for the senior service group, will speak about the campus tours, and how the new men students will find the Knight or Squire which j is to lead his particular tour.
Each Knight and Squire will wear a placard bearing a number, and each new student will have a corresponding number. This means the student will be in that Knight or Squire's group.
Lunch Planned At the end of the tours, lunch will be served in Commons cafe-teria, and after lunch is completed, the students will be given academic guidance by various advis-: ers.
The workings of this orientation program have been divided among several campus organizations for execution. In turn, many of these organizations have their own orientation programs to supplement the main program. Taking leading roles in SC’s two-day affair are Knights, Squires, Spurs,
Amazons, Chimes, AMS, AWS,
Alpha Phi Omega, and the YMCA.
