Dr. Walters findings were published in the current issue of School and Society magazine. Indiana’s current total college enroliment was listed at 25075 compared with 26337 in 1940. Dr. Walters stated that further drops were due in 1942 with the war a major factor.

Court Judge Dewey Myers seeks the nomination, Municipal Judge John McNelis (if he isn't re-ap-pointed) and Floyd Mattice have been mentioned as possible candidates for Criminal Court. Mr. Mattice, a former deputy prosecutor, is said ‘to prefer a Superior Court chance, however. Two Superior Judges, Joseph Markey and Herbert Wilson, may find themselves up against opposition because they already have served two terms and some of the younger members of the party are yelling for recognition. On the Republican side, it’s reported that Emsley Johnson Jr, the young State Representative who has been doing good work for the party in conducting the county educational campaign, may

G. 0. P. Pep Talks
REPUBLICAN OFFICIALS at the State House got together the other night and the results were so interesting that the sessions will be held regularly. from now on. It was the first time'fh many months that they had assembled to discuss goings-on at the State House and their relation to the 1942 election.
In administrations where the Governor is a member of the same party as most of the other officials, the chief executive calls them together frequently for consultation. But with most of the officers Republicans and the Governor a Democrat, these political pow-wows don't happen. None of the G. O. P. officials has wanted to assume the authority for calling such a session, State Chairman Ralph Gates got. them together this. week and they talked over issues and policies for more than three hours. Those who attended wel enthusiastic. They say the party now is united as never before. They predict a lot of good will
come out of future: get-togethers.
