There are no bells in the tower,"
he continued, explaining that the

Four amplifiers produce the power

Dr. Capurso was not available for

University Unable
To Accommodate
Lack of housing facilities on and
near the University campus has
made it apparent that the University will have to limit its 1946 fall
quarter enrollment to 5,000 students,
according to a statement from Dr.

The music of Johnny Long, Ted
Fio Rito and their orchestras will
supply music for the Student Union
Big Name dance,
which will be held from 8 to 12 next
Tuesday in the Bluegrass room of
the Union, according to Mrs. Dorothy Evans, University social director.
The ticket -- selling contest, which
was inaugurated over a month ago,
was won by Kappa Kappa Gamma,
and, as an award, the sorority will
be given a special dance number
to which only members of the sorority and their dates may dance. The
winning of the contest also permits

Beginning with the 1946 fall quarter in September, the University
will offer for the first time courses
in radio through the newly established Department of Radio Arts.
A survey course running through
three quarters and titled "Radio
Today" will be open to all students
l,lc University and will cover
every phase of present-da- y
broad- casting yismng lecturers from radiQ
stations and networks will appear
before the classes, and several trips
to nearby stations will be made.
All students except freshmen wnl
be eligible to take courses in "Radio
Announcing" and "Radio Acting,"
each of which will run one quarter
and will include considerable laboratory work in addition to the conventional classroom recitations. Disk
and wire recordings will enable students to hear their own defects and
check their progress.
Courses in "radio regulations,"
"radio script writing," and "radio
production," to be offered on an
advanced level, are scheduled for
the fall of 1947, at which time a
complete major in radio arts will
be available.
Having a long tradition in ladio
work, extending back to 1929 when
the first programs over WHAS,
Louisville, were made from the University's remote studios, such broadcasts have been maintained and expanded to include also regular programs over WLAP, Lexington. A

SGA To Install

Suggestion Boxes
Installation of boxes in various
buildings on the campus to receive
suggestions to aid SGA in improving
the University was voted by the
assembly at its regular meeting
Monday.
SGA plans to have six boxes
placed In convenient spots before the
quarter is over. All suggestions will
be turned over to the planning committee. Certain of the suggestions
will be brought before the assembly
for consideration.
One hundred dollars was donated
to a committee representing the
SUB, Panhell, House Presidents'
Council, and the women's residence
halls for the publication of a handbook for freshmen. The handbook
is to contain rules and other information necessary in the orientation
of women.

stated that nothing
could be done by SGA until residents plan a concerted action.
