Fall Registration Reaches Highest Mark in History
Present Figures Indicate Ten Percent Increase; Total of 3898 Enrolled
The total of registration figure Wednesday night indicated the largest enrollment for the first semester of the year 1925-26 that the University of Kansas has ever known, according to George O. Foster, registrar. The total last night was given as 3809.
By a comparative study of the total for this semester and that for the two previous years it seems certain that the 4,150 fall semester will reach the 4,150 mark easily, and perhaps even touch the 4,300 mark, according to the registrar. The present total shows an increase in attendance for the fall registration a year ago.
The total registration for the first semester of the 1924-25 school year showed an increase of 200 over that of the year before, 3,625 to 3,825. This was an increase of nearly seven per cent over the 1923 total of 3,425. The registration to date is in an annual period and percent increase that for the first semester of last school year. According to the estimates the final total for the semester will show a 10 per cent increase over that of a year ago.
In addition to this there are a number of faculty members and graduate students who have not yet registered. When registration closes at 6 p.m., the auditorium will show a new high total from the semester, judging from the records.
The present total is the registration exclusive of the students enrolled in the School of Medicine at Rosedale. The enrollment at Rosedale last year was 159, and the total fall should be equal if not surpass that, according to comparative estimates obtained from the registrar's records.

Guests Participate in Games Through Assistance of Director
Nearly 1500 students attended the annual mixer at Robinson gymnasium held by the Y, M, C. A. and Y, W, C. A. last night.
Director
The novel way in which practically every person present was included in all games and activities was the outing of a large group of the director, not unlike those employed in motion pictures, broadcast directions as to how to go about the games, and thus all were kept informed as to where they would be and were able to participate.
A continuous procession of games kept the crowd busy the entire evening. During the latter part of he evening, punch and wada were

Texas American Legion Demands Public Trial for Colonel Mitchell
secretary of Navy Wilbur Plans Thorough Investigation; Denies Charges
United States
Washington, N.J. — The dispute between Col. William Mitchell and the war and navy departments concerning charges of criminal negligence took a new turn today when Mitchell's friends insisted that a court of inquiry be called to prove the allegations.
Since the war department concluded all evidence on the continuance of Mitchell, his friends believe it should be an opportunity for a hearing of the charges.
(United States)
San Antonio, Sept. 10. —The American Legion of Texas is organizing in defense of Col. William T. Mitchell, eighth corps air officer, who is to be investigated and court-married for his criticism of national policies and will demand that the potential courthouse be open to the public.
The Texas Legion is solidly behind Colonel Mitchell in an effort to obtain a unified air control system. Dr. W, T. Dunning, of San Antonio, recently elected commander of the Texas organization, conferred with Colonel Mitchell and declared that the Legion would see to it that the facts of the condition of the American people. The Legion will oppose all efforts to have the courtmartial hold secretly.
Colonel Mitchell, in expressing his appreciation of the Legion's offer to help him, said:
"We do not intend to allow the war department to courtmarch Colonel Mitchell behind closed doors," said Doctor Dunning. "If Colonel Mitchell is tried in Texas, the Legion will see that he is represented by competent counsel, not only at his request, but in order to see that the American people receive the truth about the important part of our national defense."
"All I want is assurance that the trial will adhere to the main issue and not be side-tracked on technicalities."
Washington, Sept. 10—Secretary of the Navy Wilbur today expected to follow up the sweeping denial of charges of incompetence and negligence buried at the department by Colin Mitchell, by asking President Obama to re-examine his handling. Following a conference with Admiral Moffett, chief of the navy bureau of aeronautics, and Capt. W Steele, commandant of the naval air station at Lakehurst, Wilbur last night denied all charges in connection with the Shenandoah disaster, and the failure of the Hawaiian flight.
The navy secretary is now expected to seek complete vindication through formal inquiry. It is the apparent fact that the Navy is confine the investigation of Colonel Mitchell's charges to their form and not substance, and this is displeasing to navy officers. They declare that the officer will be under a cloud, or he navy will be under a cloud.

Enterprise Tickets Sell
Big Rooter's Section Reserved on 50-Yard Line.
At noon today 1200 student enterprise tickets had been sold, according to Tusten Ackerman, manager of the ticket sale. He expressed the hope that enrollees would be able to block the week to fill the block reserved for Jawhack rooters.
An exclusive roofters section of 2,000 seats on the 56-yard line will be given over to the holders of student enterprise tickets and for no one else. This section will not have individually reserved seats, which will be the outstanding seats this year. The Jaywalker backers will occupy the week side of the stadium instead of the as they did previously.
The student enterprise ticket, which is selling at $1.45 represents a value of $3.50. It includes the 1925 Jebswari at $4.50, which will be used for the football game. Because of the increased cost of the yearbook this year the same policy an usual will be followed and only a few extra copies will be made. A hundred students were unable to buy books in May and June.
The enterprise tickets this year may be bought upon a small initial payment. Mr. Robert H. Harner at the University business office will attend to those who wish to buy in payments.
The grid-graph scoreboard will again bring the pictures of the out-of-town games to the gymnasium. The Ames, Grinnell, Oklahoma, and Nebraska contests will be shown on it this season.
