number of students remained
about the same as last year.
HOOVER SAID his reasons for
expecting 7000 were because
more applications were sent in
up to Aug. 30 than in the last
three years, the June graduating
class was not abnormally large
and more GI's were discharged
than anticipated. Hoover stated
that 7000 did not seem like an
unreasonable number to expect,
The hot weather and lack of
rain, which caused many crops
to fail, may be a reason for part
of the enrollment drop, Hoover
said.
