NEVADA COUNTY
REGISTRATION
DROPS 21 PCT.
SAN FRANCHIC?. July 2.—Regis'
tration of voters in Nevada county
has dromped 21 per cent since the
general election of 1940, according
to the report cr registration made by
R. N. MeCormack, count clerk, to the
secretary of state.
In 1940, when ihe last general
election was. helt. soOore were 11,770.
registered voters in this county, and
in June of this year the total was 9,242. Population of the county durins the two year reriod, has shown
a decrease of 6.7 per cent.
For the most part, the drop in registration is attributable to cancellation of registration following the
general elections held two years ago.
Under the California permanent
registration law, it is pointed out, the
county clerk is required, immediately
after the completion of canvas of returns following the November general election, to consult the absentee
voter list, and the roster of voters
‘in the August primary and November general elections preceding, and
, to cancel all regjstrations for which
‘there has not been a vote cast. Permanent registration is permanent
only so ‘long as registered voters
vote, in either one, or both, of these
two elections held in the even numbered years.

COLLEGE COST
PER PUPIL CUT
Despite a decreased enrollment,
Placer Junior College was operated
during the school year 1941-1942 at
a cost of $184.48 per student, a de>
crease of $4.23 per student from the
rate of $186.75 established during
the school year 1940-1941.
_This is according to the annual
report just completed under the direction of Dr. E. E. Oertel, the retiring superintendent, and submitted to superintendents-of. the various
counties having students at the Auburn school.
The decreased expenditures were
due principally to the smaller number of students transported in the
school busses, and to the abolition
of the position of associate dean.
Transportation costs were cut
from $7700 to $5400. The associate
dean’s salary was eliminated when
the duties were divided among three
teachers, serving without additional
compensation.
The college showed an average
daily attendance of 293 for the year
1941-1942 against 351 for the year
1940-1941. Night school and defense
classes with.an average daily attendance of 60 persons, offset in part a
large drop -in the day time students.
