Desc: Horace Mann's Miracle: Directed by Albert McCleery. With Frank M. Thomas, Mona Bruns, Howard Freeman, Harry Antrim. In the 1850's, the small mid western college of Antioch faces going out of business unless it changes school policy and takes on wealthy clientèle to pay their mounting debts. Their stalwart dean, Horace Mann, refuses and would rather go down to defeat than betray his principles. At the moment that all seems lost, a benefactor steps in to rescue them.
