Volume 23 Collegedale, Tennessee, December, 1973 Number 8 ?» Enrollment Passes 1550 Student registration at Southern Missionary Col- lege surpassed all previous records with a total thus far of 1,555 students, according to Dr. Arno Kutzner, director of admissions and records.

Dr. Kutzner said at this time last year 1,421 stu-

dents had been registered. The gain is 134 for the current year.

This is the 16th consecutive year SMC has shown a gain, rising from approximately 500 students in 1957-58.

Of the total, 527 are freshmen, 355 are sopho- mores, and 268 are juniors. There are 112 two-year seniors and 184 four-year seniors. The remainder of the students are taking post-graduate courses or other

Distributors Gets New Building

Collegedale Distributors, in revamping its Eastern health food service, has dropped the

Florida warehouse, and is building a new enlarged warehouse in the Collegedale area. The new warehouse should be finished and in use by December. Construction delays have held up com-

pletion of the building, but at this time work is progressing steadily. The facility at the 1-75 interchange in Ooltewah will more than double the 13,000 sq. ft. floor space of the present warehouse in the College Plaza. The Committee of 100, a group of SDA business- men concerned with developing SMC, will own the $200,000 warehouse and will lease the building to Collegedale Distributors. There are two primary reasons for the erection of the warehouse. First, the inadequate space of the

Florida warehouse made it impossible to stock a wide variety of health foods. Second, overhead will be re- duced with one central warehouse, and the shipment system will go through one office at Collegedale in- stead of duplicating inventory and shipping crews at both Forest City and Collegedale. Collegedale Distributors, as a business closely al-

lied to the college, funds the college directly from its near $100,000 yearly profits and indirectly through student labor. The 1973 fiscal year's $12,210 student payroll showed a $4,880 gain over the 1972 fiscal year.

Dow Gives Equipment

Late this past summer SMC was the recipient of a gift from Dow Chemical Company, consisting of the contents of an eight by ten foot trailer filled with items of special value to the biology, physics, indus- trial arts and chemistry departments. This is not the first gift received from Dow Chem- ical Company. In November of 1964, SMC received a truck load of materials from the same Company.
