Grad Schools Are Full for 1968 69 Despite Draft Effects
Graduate schools across the nation open the 1968 69 year with enrollment not as low as predicted though impact from the draft on graduate students remains uncertain. Educators expect the main effects to hit in January and note deferment changes after a 1967 draft law. Shortages may push enrollments toward women older students and foreign entrants while some boards grant occupational deferments for teachers.

Wallace stumps at Kentucky campus amid mixed reception
George Wallace drew a mixed crowd of students and locals at the University of Kentucky on a four day tour. He denounced professors who back the Viet Cong and said he will rally in Columbia South Carolina and Albany Georgia before Montgomery Alabama tonight. He announced acceptance of a Metromedia News invitation to debate Nixon and Humphrey in a nine minute program in October to be carried coast to coast on Metromedia stations and affiliates and possibly elsewhere. It was unclear if Nixon or Humphrey agreed to the debate. A small group jeered Wallace with a playful label Hippies for Wallace but most reception was favorable.
