GREETINGS FROM THE PRil!C IP AL· --- It is a great pleasure to greet and welcome such a largo student body .

Our records show that the student body this year is the largest s inc e 1929 . In 1929, the enrollment con-sisted of 1 20 students~This year, our enrollment is 114. T.lith such a largo enrollment for our capacity, we are com pelled tc think in terms of cooperation and expansion . We fully realize that our capacity in our dormitories, especially for tho young ladies, is inadoquate .

1'ife want to thank the students for the splendid co operation and interest which they arc demonstrating in tho progress of this insti-tution. nore it not for tho willingness of tho student body to accept temporari ly , · the condition under which we a re forced to live, it would not be possible for us to house such a l a rge group . The sacrifice \thich you a r e making by your hearty cooper tion with our efforts to build a real State Teaahors College for tho color ed stu­dents of Mar yland is deeply approc~atcd . \

CAMPUS MYSTERY

It is night . Tho moon is just rising over tho troo tops turning everything in its wake into a s ilvery shoon. The call of tho night birds can be heard while tho brooz­os , sweetened by tho breath of autumn,rock tho silvery grass on the campus to sloop , Tho stillness is divine . It is almost 10 o'clock and soon tho oyos of tho dor ­mitory \•ill close ,and dark­ness , save for tho moon,will prevail.

Across tho campus two figures stcal,tiptooing , lost by some noise they are dis ­covered . Their hats are pulled well dovn on their heads; their eyes have a ficndi:,h gleam. Myste ry is afoot In tho hands of the ctudonts long daggers are scon gloaming i n the moon­light .

Hush ! Look ! Listen! Farther and farther away from the dormitory they slip and near t o the place ,,here the silvery sheaves of tho autumn corn kiss tho dowcy earth . Can it bo that a duel is about to on ­suo? Breathlessly I watch. Tho figures pass the corn field . They gain their prey ~

5 Into it they plunge their knives: A scaring of flesh is hoard . Red liquid flies

t? into the air . Stillness ; again all is quiet .

Crunch, crunch , crunch, I hear . Can these students be cannibals? Yes ! 1Jfater ­molon Cannibals .
