New Freshman Class, 1,100 Strong, to Register Today

Harvard begins officially for 1,100 freshmen this morning as the incoming members of the Class of 1955 register at Memorial Hall. Transfer students and men returning after an absence will also register today; all other undergraduates will check in on Monday.

The registration lines will wind through Memorial Hall, starting at the South Door, and emptying at the far portico. Doors open at 9 a.m. for those whose last initials begin with A through L. The rest of the alphabet registers from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.; all late arrivals from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Tomorrow Too

Men who are not able to complete registration today will have an opportunity to register tomorrow, from 9 a.m. to noon. But the full slate of placement examinations scheduled for the same time makes late registration difficult.

"We haven't been hit appreciably by service calls," said Kennedy. "At least, not like the Law School."

Two hundred men originally accepted for the Law School's first-year class had been activated by the armed forces, necessitating the acceptance of 200 additional men.

"There'll be the customary small number of men showing up after having signified they would not attend; and the same amount of admitted men who fail to appear. "But it won't be anything out of the ordinary," Kennedy said.

Break-down of the expected enrollment in the University is a follows: College, 4,400; Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (including Division of Engineering Sciences), 1,500; Law, 1,475; Business Administration, 1,330; Medical, 526; Education, 300; Design, 204; Public Health, 125; Divinity, 115; Public Administration, 100; and Dental Medicine, 57.
