Officials |
Work of the second or winter term
of the current session will begin to-
day and from the advance arrivals
yesterday and last night the indica-
tions are that the attendance will be
up to normal and fulfill the expecta-
tions of the College officials. While
many of the men who were here last!’
fall will not return, many advanced
students who left the College to enter
the military service will be here to
resume their work and there is every
prospect that the anticipations of the |
College off cials for a normal attend-
ance durng the second and third
terms will be realized.
From the number of old men who
had arrived yesterday the indications
vere that the attendance of former
students, recently discharged from the |
military service, would be larger than
or ginally anticipated.
