 twenty-five (14-25") Instructor License applications were received, 

 Six h\indred and eighteen (618) licenses were issued. Since a 

 niinim\am of sixty (60) days is required for processing, the 

 larger number of issuances than applications resulted from a

 April 1 through March 31 of a given year, four himdred and 

 ninety (I4.9O) license renewals were also processed between
