College Trains for Life ' Dr. Chase further stated that he regarded figures on tne in crease nT financial returns for college men of very little value because financial gains were not the big object in obtaining a col lege education.

Then just be fore the Welcome In ' cafeteria occupied the place, a cafeteria was operated there under the name of the Carolina cafeteria, which also closed up in a short while.
