Some of the boys returned to their homes for new outfits of clothes to- day but the majority of the students are being outfitted in the town. Al- though they lost virtually all of their clothing, consisting mainly of military uniforms, many of them have sent home fc civilian attire which was awaiting their return on Summer vaeation. The student body includes a number of sons of Methodist missionaries and reassuring cablegrams were sent yes- terday informing the distant parents that their sons were unharmed.
