.AtRichmond College Given a Setback
Seventeen Suspended.

students at Richmond college have been
suspended for hazing. The ministerial

war. This condition of affairs dates
back many years. Toe pulling has

long before there was any football
team or systematic morning prayers. 1t
has been a common thing for students
who room in the cottages to go over to
the dormitOry in the college building
and pull the toes of a number of gen
tlemen, including pastors of Baptist
churches, whose services are held on
the second and fourth Sundays in the
month. Today formal complaint for
the first time was made to the faculty
and the suspensions followed.
