5l NEW STUDENTS
 jENR0LL AT NORMAL
 ATTENDANCE NOWl 37O EXCEEDS BY 50 PREVIOUS REC ORD OF ENTIRE YEAR BUILDINGS NEEDED.

Fifty-one new students were ma | circulated this morning at the open
 ing of the third term of the present
 session at the Arkansas State Nor
 mai School, establishing a new rec ord of enrolment at that institution. | The highest previous mark for an en- | tire winter session was 320 in 1914 15. This number was exceeded by
 exactly 50 today, with one-third of
 the session remaining. Quite a num- Der of other students are expected during the next few days, and there will be occasional entries until near the close of the school. At the be- ginning of the present session; Pres l ident J. J. Doyne predicted an en- l rollment of $50 for the session. This
 number has already been exceeded by 20, and the indications now are that the l00-mark will be reached.
 Prospects are also very bright for a large attendance at the eight weeks summer session, which follows immediately after the present ses- sion. If, as is anticipated, more than 200 enroll at the summer session, it will mean a years enrolment of full ly 600, exceeding that of any other educational institution in the state except the University of Arkansas and reaching very close to the total attendance at that institution.
 President Doyne said today the prDb1op, ;c pn lopnar +o eoo,,ro cf, dents but to accommodate those who are coming, and the need of addi- tional buildings is rapidly becoming imperative. Of over POO young wom- en, only 85 can be accommodated in the single girls dormitory with which the school is provided, and the l5O or more young men students all have to secure private board and lodging. While all have so far been cared for in good homes, the prob lem of placing them is becoming more difficult every month The class rooms are also crowded and much difficulty is being experienced in finding accommodation for all the students.
 Of the 51 new students entering today only one is enrolled from Con- way and only three from Faulkner county, the remaining AS being from various places in other counties of the state. The list of today's matric ulates follows:
