Admissions.— When the Session started in July 1921, 25 public, 13 special
private and 20 private students were admitted to the first year class. All the
new students possess the required educational qualifications, and one of them even
passed and many studied up to the I.A. or I.Sc. Statement ( c ) shews the
qualifications of the newly admitted students. First year special private student
K. Vedachalam, who was removed for failure at the Primary Examination in
April 1921, was re-admitted as a private student.
4.
Casualties.— It is with regret I have to record the death of third year
public student Maung Kyaw Khine from the effect of Intravenous Neo-Salvarsan
injection. First year private student A G. Padan left the School on his own
accord during the year.
5.
Discipline, Character and Health.— The discipline and character of the
students on the whole were very good and satisfactory during the year under
review. Owing to ill-health fourth year public student Maung San Hla and first
year private student D. K. Pal had to be granted leave till the next session, and
first year private students S. C. Dey and M L. Das and second year private
student H. P. Bhattachariya were unable to sit for their examinations.
