its session yesterday, the efforts OF
the faculty to impress on the youth
of North Carolina the fact that
preparation for leadership is more
supremacy vital and important than
ever before have resulted In the mobt-
students for the coming session.
There are ninety freshmen.
The registration is backward, due
undoubtedly to the unsettled condt-
lions now prevailing and to the strict
ness of the entrance committee which
is acting on the applications of new
students. President William Louis
Poteat expects a large increase in the
enrolment before the end OF the week.
The depletion of the student body
