 Of the total of. 1860 students. ac- cording to figures given out today by B. l.. Shi, registrar, 1,295 are boys and 65 are girls. There Is only one dormftory for girls at Auburn and the rules of the college require all young women students who do not live in Auburn to reside in the dor mitory, where they are under super vision of the dean of women and other women In the faculty.
 Every county In Alabama Is repre- sented in the student body. and there are also students from IT states as we'll as three foreign countries These figures are considered all the more remarkable in view of the fact that due to the crowded conditions and the lack of dormitories, attend ance on the part of all students was voluntary. the college not sending out any solicitors as Is customary with colleges seeking large enroll ments.
 More than six hundred students are taking courses in engineering, this placing Auburn as one of the leading engineering colleges of the country. Agricultural courses rank next to engineering in popularity.
