Mr. Norton said that at last report his office had processed some 1,634 freshman applications for admission, compared to 1,673 at the same date last year. He noted that many students would apply for admission after Aug. 30 deadline and said these students faced several hazards.

McClellan told of loans of union funds made to Hoffa and friends. He said Hoffa used business agents to sell lots in Florida. Detailing one transaction, Sen. McClellan said .that Hoffa borrowed $25,000 from an accountant who did work for the Central States Southwest Welfore Fund. He said Hoffa obtained this loan soon after two Detroit Teamsters locals made loans to .the accountant in excess of $100,000 at 6 per cent interest. But the accountant, he said, did not charge Hoffa in- terest on the $25,000 loan. Personal income in Utah in 1956 hit an all time high of $1,326,000,-000- , over $1 million mare than 1955.
