Females will soon outnumber male students at the university level throughout the country, the president of Wellesley College asserted yesterday.

Speaking before the 38th Annual Convention of the American Council on Education, Margaret Clapp of Wellesley said trends indicate women will soon outnumber men in the nation's institutions of higher learning. In line with this rise in female enrollments, Miss Clapp warned that women will begin to take over more jobs now the exclusive property of men.

"Colleges should prepare new for the avalanche of new students that will hit them within the next ten years," the Wellesley College president added. Miss Clapp credited this expected enrollment increase to the increased birth rate during World War II.

In addition to Miss Clapp's address, the main topic of conversation at the 38th convention centered around the question of Congressional probes into educational institutional. Hollis F. Price, president of LeMoyne College in Memphis, Tenn., led the attack against college communist probes.

"Under the American system of government, we have a separation of powers for good and sufficient reasons," Price stated. "I believe this is due to our faith in man and our lack of faith in any man. In matters of investigation, it would appear that legislative committees have assumed judicial functions."

We rightfully fear power of concentration in any one man," the Tennessee educator asserted.
