His final day of work was April 1, 1960, on which date he had a valid separation. Nitowski thereafter filed an application for unemployment compensation, and received benefits for thirty weeks. On April 2, 1961, having had no intervening employment, he filed an application for benefits for a second benefit year, which was within ninety days after *531the termination of tbe preceding benefit year. His application was disallowed by the Bureau of Employment Security, tbe Referee, and tbe Board of Review on the ground that be bad failed to comply with tbe active registration requirement set forth in section 4(w) (2) of tbe Unemployment Compensation Law. Act of December 5, 1936, P. L. (1937) 2897, 43 P.S. 751 et seq. This appeal followed.
