full of rumors here regarding a revo-
lutionary outbreak in the vicinity Of

AUG|E EXPECTS
MANY ENTRANTS
Inquiries Received So Early Ii
q Summer Give Evidence Of
Heavy Enrollment

Inquiries being received at the
dice of Augustana college so early
n the summer, gives warrant that
the new classes to enter the insti-
tuition this fall will be larger than
was anticipated at the close OF the
year.
DR.. Gustav A. Andreen, president
Of the college. stated that the Office
has been rushed with many in
quiries from people living near and
far, and that many Of the letters
come from distances where the in
stitution has served but little. The
daily mail from students Just en-
tering college and those who are
laundering. shows the growing
popularity of the local institution.
Total registration for the school
year Of 1922 was 1899 students,
the largest in the history of Angus
tsna. This number is expected to
be substantially increased by Sep

received later In the summer. Mrs
