Sunday, October 6, 1918 THE DAILY IOWAN STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA PAGE FIVE FRENCH CLASSES CROWDED Registration for French this year has been exceedingly heavy, Romance language professors declare Classes are crowded. In the 9:30 division, students filled the room to the doorway, and others stood in the hall. Definite figures could not be given as to the number of students registering for the course but estimates give the following figures: More than 400 have registered for elementary French, about 175 have registered for military French, and the more advanced courses have shown an increase over that of last year. This enrollment has necessitated the adding of two more instructors to the regular force. Phyllis Patterson, Alpha Delta Pi, is spending the week end at Waterloo.

This is almost a hundred more girls than was enrolled at the same time last year. Approximately one-third of this number are taking the war-issues course and the dean of women reports that nearly all of the girls register automatically for courses in French. Houses for freshmen are not entirely filled. The new plan of keeping freshmen girls in fraternity houses is working out successfully. About ten more girls could find rooms at these houses if they so desire. The Delta Zeta girls will give a tea Sunday in honor of Jean Terraz, the French girl at the University.

WILL SELL YEAR TICKETS University Women Now Organizing To Boost Athletics The Iowa Women's Athletic association by the sale of athletic tickets, is going to keep the Iowa field from being overrun with weeds. Lillian Prentiss, president of the I.W.A.A., met last week with sixteen presidents of women's organizations and received three recommendations from each for the organization of University women to push the sale of I tickets when the big drive comes. The selling of athletic books will begin on the day the first mass meeting is held. On account of the epidemic now prevalent, dates have not been definitely fixed, but will be announced later in the Iowan. The idea is, according to Miss. Prentiss, "to make the girls of our University feel that it is their part and privilege to share in athletics." The government has requested that wherever it is possible in universities and colleges athletics should be encouraged in order that the men may be fit in body and spirit. SOCIAL WORKERS PLAN CONFERENCE Iowa Professor To Address Muscatine Meeting The Iowa State conference of Social workers will hold its annual meeting at Muscatine Oct. 20-22. Among the speakers are several University professors and men prominent in the social work of the state. Former Prof. J. L. Gillen, at present director of civilian relief for the central division of the American Red Cross with headquarters in Chicago, will give one of the principal addresses. O.E. Klingaman, director of the Extension Division, is scheduled to discuss the Iowa plan for the combination of public and private relief. Prof. P.S. Peirce, Prof. Ellsworth Faris and Prof. F.E.Haynes will also be on the program. Prof. Haynes is the acting secretary for the conference in place of Miss Bessie McClenahan who resigned recently because of poor health. W. I. Atkinson, of Waterloo, who was for four years a member of the University football squad and also former speaker of the Iowa house has started a movement to have the athletic field named Becker Field in honor of Lieut. Fred H. Becker of Waterloo who was killed in action July 21. It is believed that Becker was the first Iowa varsity man to lose his life in France. Lieut. Becker was awarded the distinguished service cross for bravery in action last June when he led a patrol across no man's land. The honor came after his death which was caused by being hit by a shell fragment while his battalion was attacking the enemy in a wheat field near Soissons.
