FIVE STATE SCHOOLS SHOW

According to a report from C. M. Harringer, chairman of the board of reegits, the five state teams show a loss in at least 16 percent of 'sat war'. This year's total is 9,582.
Pittsburgh Teachers College was the only one of the five to show a gain, having a total of 1,253, or 106 more students than in 2012, 3,733, or 125 more students; 219, Kansas State at Manhattan has 86, with a total of 2-853; Fort Hays College has 642 enrolled. 11 less than last year; and Emerson University has 1073, 32 less than a year ago.

Proportionate Gain Seen in Student Contributions
,360 Pay Membership Fees in University Union Association
The proportionate increase in the number of regular one dollar memberships and the decrease in the number of non-regular Union building fund, cannot be blamed on the depression, according to data from various organizations, to the fact that a greater percentage of students have acquainted with the Union and become members.
In an enrollment of 4,250 last year total membership in the Union was 2,928 of which 604 were contributing members and 2,324 were regular members.
The number of paid memberships on last Saturday was 1,468 of which 108 were regular members. The total number of students who had paid their fee at that time was 1,744, making approval of the annual parental care攒 with 60 per cent for last year.

Freshman Program Will Be Planned by Committee Tomorrow
Plans for the freshman initiation, which is to be held in the station on campus, will be discussed in a meeting of the freshman initiation committee tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 in the office of Prof. Clement Meehan. Although no definite program for this year's ceremony has been announced, it probably will be of similar nature to that of the previous year. Theogram has formerly been comprised of a salute to the flag, singing of University songs and adoration of the university departments of the University. The purpose of the ceremony is to impress the traditions and culture of the University upon the new students.

Hoover Requests American Legion to Delay Demand
Perhaps It Would Be Best to Wait Until After Sundown to Refuel Car
Detroit, Sept. 21 – (UP) “The American government can carry no additional burden of expenditures without grave risk,” President Hoover solently noted. “We have to deliver today. ‘The country’s need,’ he said, ‘is second only to war.’”
Los Angeles, Sept. 21—(S.S.)-Do you buy your gasoline on the sunny side or the shady side of the street?
The rate of expansion of gasoline with rise in temperature is more than the rate of expansion of glass motor-floor dispenser, backing in California's powerful sunshine, expands appreciably. But the gasoline expands less and spills automatically back into the liquid keep up with it. The liquid rises above the top mark on the visible cylinder and spills automatically back into the liquid keep up with it.

He asked the war veterans to deforeal demands on the government until it was clear that a request for a moratorium on all bonuses and pension proposals during the depression. Neither loans nor taxing of veterans would be effective in many difficulties if additional demands were made on the government. Mr. Hoover, speaking currently and Frankly, insisted that the government summon again the same courage and self sacrifice which brought victory in the World War, and to enlist in the fight to maintain the stability of the country.
BEER SHOUT GOES UP
Without mentioning specifically a bonus and pension proposals advocated by many in the legion, Mr. Hoover afferred with the question given by the legion, said, "but there is today an even greater service to our country. That is the determined opération that has enabled him to handpuncho the nation until we have won this war against world depression." As Mr. Hoover turned to leave the platform, a short "we want bee" road stretched through the hall in a tremendous roar. Mr. Hoover, who was smilingly shaking hands on the platform, appeared to take no notice of the beer

The exact saving attained by patronage of the shady gasoline station is not the same as that in the winter example, in Calexico, below sea level in the torrid Imperial Valley, where the street in the shade is common and when water is not mentioned. On the other hand, the serious problem arises. Could one survive the northwest winter at 40 degrees below zero? If so, one might be able to wear protective clothing and warmer clothes with a shrubbery fence.
The principle in question is of course well known in its application to the thermometer. The mercury or alcohols are usually poured outruns the expansion of the glass. The "gas" dispenser, lacking the thermometer bulb, does not allow so great a rise in temperature.

Brokers and bankers anticipated the news and made preparations for it. The bank has announced that York declined sharply last week as traders discounted 30 percent of a gold standard.
