will respond to the call. Those now en
listed in the company are;

vates Ralph Boyd, Charles Brown, Lew

The war strength of the company is 1
155 and only 5!) more recruits are need
ed in order to bring it up to that
strength. Second Lieutenant Hart ex- :
peets the ranks to b ■ filled soon, as '••e
cruiting is going on at a rapid rate.
“Two-thirds of the Un’versity men”
will actually enlist if war is declared,”
said Dean John Straub.
Oregon’s students have already shown
a military patriotic attitude, for large
numbers have signed up. Among these j
numbers a large portion are men of col- j
lege activities. Students have kept the |
armory busy with requests for informa- I
tion until the United States Army re
cruiting officer has exhausted his supply
of pharnplets.
Dr. Straub thinks that only students
incapable*of soldier life will remain at
school. He assumes that about one- i
third of the men will not be unable to !
enlist due to poor eye-sight or physi- J
cal unfitness.
On investigation in New York only j
-rnr stii'hnt out-'of ' Very 55 pimc.n,; the '
stringent physical military examination.
The others, it was found, had cases of j
cigarette heart whi li barred them out.
Enthusiastically the freshman advis- i
or declared, "I would like to go myself
and enlist together with my hundred
freshmen boys.” Dr. Strauv regrets that
he is too old for the first call but really
thinks that he could “stanu the ga.f”
in actual war-fare as well as the rest.
He thinks that the war will not be more
thfin several months in duration and that
all possible encounters will be along the
Mexican border where 75,000 orlOO,
000 will be able to handle tIvc work.
Germany, he thinks, will not be able to
hold out until the end of he year.
]>r. Straub thinks that students should
attempt to finish this semester. They
should not rush in until needed, and
then they should be given chances for
better positions than privates as long
ns there are others not so well educated
who can fill the ranks.
