Practically every one was seated by the time of the kick-off except a few late comers who were held up before arriving at the field. So far as I can learn from the inspectors on duty, not a single kick was registered by parties who failed to obtain the seats sold to them. Quickly seating a large football crowd is no small matter and those boys who served without compensation the College is indebted too. To the Cadets who helped in other - | capacities the A. and M. Council is indebted, and thanks are hereby ex- tended and the work complimented. W. L. DRIVER, Director. spoefoafoefoafoadeafoaoaoatsaoaeaioaeaosioarafeageaiairafafrofrofocds ENROLLMENT AT A. AND M.
