W. C. L.· In Noyes.The University Y. M. C. A. hasmade several changes in its . policythis year to meet in an adequate man­ner the war conditions. The Associa­tion plans to be a home unit to workback of the lines for the Y. 1\1. C. A.at the front.To Give Freshman LuncheonsI t has also bee'n officially announcedthat the annual freshman luncheons\\;11 begin soon. These luncheons wereheld last year in Hutchinson under theauspices of the Y. M. C. A. for thepurpose of giving the entering men anopportunity to meet members bf thefaculty and to become better acquaint­ed with each other. Such members ofthe faculty as President Judson andDirector Stagg spoke last year, �,'1thus helped the freshmen to under­stand the University viewpoint ondifferent matters. These luncheons\\;11 probably be held on Fridays .andmany of the men who spoke last Yf.ar\\;11 be asked to speak again.Another event which will take placein the near future is a joint receptiongiven with the Y. W. C. L.. To thisreception both men and women of theUniversity will be invited. It is like­�y that it will be held in Ida Noyes. .Has Great Opportunity"We simply must impress on every­one how vital this work is," said Mr�Brown. "Everyone realizes how muchgood the Y. M. C. A. has been doing atthe front and at our own trainingcamps in the front and at our owntraining camps in the United States.It is up to us to stand behind thesewar Associations with all ourstrength. And it is the undergradu­ate men that can do so much hereon the campus, that it will be a greatdisappointment to everyone connectedif they do not tum out and workhard." Although no figures as to the exactregistration for the. present . q�a� _are as yet available, various guesseshave been made by campus officials as ETfELSONto what the figures will total. It isthe consensus of opinion that the regis­tration among women remains aboutthe same as usual. The difference inthe estimates is in regard to the menof the Freshman class."Judging by the appearance of theEnglish 1 classes," said Dean Linnyesterday, "it would b� my guess thatthe numbers of Freshmen in resid­ence has fallen off proportionately tot he number of men in the other class­es. Of course the truth will not beknown until the figures can be col­lectcd.")Ir. )Ioulds DiffersDean Boynton stated that he sharedthe view which seems to prevail, andwhich was expressed by Dean Linn.A difference of opinion was foundwith Mr. John F. Moulds, the Univer­sity cashier, who made the guessthat the Freshman class would be aslarge as usual,"It was found in the Summer quar­ter," said Mr. Moulds yesterday,"that the Freshman class was as largeas usual although the number of old­er men had somewhat decreased. Itwould seem likely that the same con­dition will prevail this quarter."ReadjThe:Daily MaroonWomen's mass meeting, 3:30, Man- "c Ndel.
