though Rutgers will have an entering

over this, but no absolute figures are
available yet, as many young men have
applied, but not met the full require

college authorities have found it neces-
sary to enforce an iron clad rule that
no one be admitted to the freshman
class who has a condition
The approximate enrolment in the
other classes will be seniors, 30;
juniors, 1875, and sophomores, 120. so
