329 Registered and More To Be Enrolled - Activities Include Opening Convention, Reception Wednesday afternoon found 329 students registered at Graceland College with a number of students to still be enrolled. Fifteen minute classes were held during the afternoon in preparation for regular class work scheduled to start on Thursday morning. Registration this year took longer than in previous years and two reasons were advanced for that: There are more students being enrolled and more attention is given each student by the faculty advisors who assist in making out schedules. Thursday morning the opening convocation will be held at the Chapel with Pastor D. B. Borden as the speaker. On Friday evening the Faculty Reception will take place and will be participated in by all students. Next Wednesday a final check will be made of registrations. Dr. Broyles, of Bethany, Mo., was engaged by the college as the examining physician this year. Officials of the Jefferson Bus lines, employees of the local postoffice and J. P. Jefferies of the Burlington [railroad] depot were made aware of the influx of students this year due to the large increase in their business. Postmaster Blair had to call for a truck to deliver parcel post packages and extra buses were employed to take care of the passengers.
College daughters are being assigned to Lamoni women again this year by the Patroness Society. According to Mrs. C. F. Smith women who do not choose to receive a college daughter this year should notify her as soon as possible.
