Students Adapt To New System Registrar Says
James K. Hitt. registrar, said the adaptability of the student body, more than anything else, made it possible to inaugurate the new enrollment system and late fee payment this year.
Today is the last day for payment of fees, with lines closing at 5 p.m.
The late fee payment has gone smoother than any of the other enrollment processes, Mr. Hitt said.
Mr. Hitt said the new system was designed for the 17,000 students expected by 1970. It was necessary to begin the new process this year in order to be ready for the expected surge in enrollment, he said.
Fees this year were raised slightly, but matriculation, graduation, and some practice fees have been eliminated. These fees have been absorbed into the general enrollment fees.

Kansas Turnpike To Be Completed Late In '56
Students and football fans along the route between Lawrence and Wichita should mark October 1956 as a "red letter month" on their calendars. A new means of shortening the driving time and mileage to KU will be made available as the $140 million Kansas Turnpike will be in operation by then-
Think of how convenient it will be to speed along a superhighway toward Lawrence next fall instead of fighting the heavy, slow traffic on the smaller state highways.
Students and sports fans will save an estimated hour and ten minutes in driving time and a driving distance of 34.2 miles between Wichita and Lawrence.
Two Cut Offs
Lawrence is one of the few cities along the route to have access to two interchanges to the turnpike. The East Lawrence interchange is located north and east of the city near US 40 and US 24. The access road to the West Lawrence interchange is located off US 40 near the west city limits.
the west city. The turnpike's eastern terminal is 18th and Muncie in Kansas City, Kan., and runs through interchanges at Bonner Springs; East and West Lawrence; East and South Topeka; Admire; Emporia; El Dorado; East, Boeing and South Wichita; Wellington and ends at the South terminal at South Haven, near the
Oklahoma border, some 236 miles later.
The roadway consists of two 24-foot paved traffic strips in each direction. They are divided by a 20-foot depressed median which is dropped 21 inches below the roadway surface in the center of the median. The median will be used for drainage and the separation of traffic lanes to lessen danger of head-on collisions.
Meals, gasoline and minor motor repairs will be available on the turnpike. Major restaurant and service station areas will be located at Lawrence, Emporia and Towanda. Safety Devices
Latest Safety Devices
The turnpike will be patrolled by a special staff of state highway troopers assigned only to turnpike duties. The route will have the latest types of protective and caution devices and signs. The maximum grade is three percent with a minimum sight distance of 750 feet in rural areas.
At present, plans call for a minimum speed limit of 40-miles per hour. The maximum has not been set, but the route has been engineered for reasonably safe driving at 70 to 75 mph.
After the $160,000,000 revenue bonds, issued to pay for construction of the turnpike, are paid off, the turnpike will revert to the state highway department to be used either as a free or toll road.
