Help with bug in freshmen level homework

[C0__0D]

Good Morning, There is a bug in my code and I have been trying to figure out why its happening, I have never seen a bug like this and in the main function when I print out the queried first name and last name, it properly reads and prints out, but for some reason if you look in my code on line 314, it is not printing out last name and printing a blank, instead. This causes my find_closest_birthday function to not work properly because it depends on strcmp'ing the first and last name. Any clue on what might be causing this? It would really help if you could take a look at my code and help point me in the right direction.
Code: [C] # include <stdio.h> # include <stdlib.h> # include <string.h> # define MAX - Pastebin.com
Output: [Bash] Terminal output - Pastebin.com

At the time I didn't realize there was a weird for-loop at line 92, anyhow I ended up commenting out that for loop but I get the same bug.

The output should be:

j = 0

i = 0

classmate_First Name = JOHN
 classmate_Last Name = SMITH
Queried_First Name = JOHN
Queried_Last Name = SMITH

but its only outputting, with the missing queried last name.

j = 0

i = 0

classmate_First Name = JOHN
 classmate_Last Name = SMITH
Queried_First Name = JOHN
Queried_Last Name =

Any reason why its doing this?

Edit: Sorry for link instead of using the code blocks... Hope it doesn't matter.

How many did you allocate?

    int i, num_classes, num_students, num_queried;
...
    // Allocating space for the queried student structures.
    person *queried_student = malloc(sizeof(person)*num_queried);
 ...
    // Scan in the number of queried students
    fscanf(ifp, "%d", &num_queried);

The line after bill Clinton is num queried

Here's a clue - C does not predict the future.

> person *queried_student = malloc(sizeof(person)*num_queried);
What is the value of num_queried here...

> fscanf(ifp, "%d", &num_queried);
when you only read it here?

The line after bill Clinton is num queried

you don't know that value when queried_student is allocated.
