that the bonds were declared forfeited
and a bench warrant issued for Volta.
Again. when the hearing on the for
fixture was called Friday. Volta and
his attorney were again riding slow
trains and their only EXCUSES were
those offered by a kindly representa-
tive from the district attorney's office,
who explained that the trains were
late.
Now it is a question whether Volta
comes through with $500 and costs
at once or his bondsmen fail to get
back their $500 and Uncle Sam goes
cunning for the 5000 as well.

in the past, and confident of its perm
anency and success in the future.
We have laid aside all plans for
consolidation with the University or
utilization wit hother educational il
situations and are devoting every eff
fort to develop the college as an inde-
pendent state supported school Dur
ing recent months, we have repaired
our buildings, provided new lecture
rooms, and purchased additional
equipment. We have reorganized the
professional management Of the hos
pitfalls so as to better utilize clinical
material, and have made changes and
additions to the faculty so as to in
crease the effectiveness of teaching.
Despite our faith in the future of
the Medical College of Virginia, there
were some of as who feared that Tie
recent proposal to merge with the
University would be misconstrued
and regarded as an evidence of weak
ness rather than as a generous and
constructive effort to benefit medical
education in Virginia and in the
South, and that as q consequence
there might be a temporary reduc-
ton in the number of our students.
The present session, however, haa
opened most auspiciously, the follow
ing being the enrolment in the three
schools:
School of Medicine. ........257
School of Dentistry. .l09
School of Pharmacy ......l02
Total ...............46S
This is the largest number Of stu
dents that has been matt ,ulated at
any session since 1913 and is 20 per
cent greater than the number last
year,
These students were not obtained
by lowering the requirements for adj
mission, or by making any financial
concessions, or by an unusual cam
paign of advertising. The eXplana-
ton of the large classes is the lessen
ed number of Medical Schools in the
United States, the increased number
of students caused by the demand Ior
physicians, dentists and pharmacists,
the clinical advantages and the geo
graphical location of Richmond, and
| finally the confidence of the public and
profession in the Board of Visitors
and Faculty of the Medical College
of Virginia.
The political ordeal through which
the Medical College of Virginia re-
Gently passed has advertised the I'M
portance of the service it has render
ed and is rendering to the people OF
the State, and the College today is
stronger educationally, numerically
and financially than it has ever been
in its previous history.
In the name of my associates ana
myself, l thank you for your help in
the past. and bespeak your continued
GOOD will and support in the future.
