Compulsory Drill Arranged
As soon as war with Germany became
n.’.’table last spring, the University of
Oregon faculty sought assistance of
ar.v.y officials in establishing complsory
military drill daily for ell men students.
The students had neither guns or uni
forms but turned qut regularly for real
ly strenuous drill, using wooden guns in
place of real ones So far no drill
his been given this fall because Lieu
tenant Colonel John A. Leader, English
war hero, who was to have arrived at
the University to conduct the drill at
Oregon, has been delayed in arriving.
At the beginning of the war, courses
were started in military tactics, military
law, sanitation, first aid, military topo
grr nhy, gunnery mathematics, fire con
tr 1, electricity, chemistry of explosives,
advanced ordnance chemistry, and signal
practice. For won.en work was offered
in courses approved by the Red Cross,
ami a class in setting up exercises held
dailv by the gymnasium department in
anticipation of the pnvsical strain of
war time conditions.
Extension Division Works
A large and thoroughly organized ex
tension division opened its offices and
branches over the state for Red Cross
and national defense organization work,
and its traveling force of lecturers and
organizers for such service as might he
needed
Students enterng the national service
were excused ear'y with University
credit granted. About per cent of the
student body enlisted at this time in the
regular army, navy, marines, and militia,
while nearly ns many applied for officers
re ;erve commissions or training camps.
A large number were excused by the
faculty to go home to help harvest the
cr ps. Advanced students of architee
tu-e went to the ship yards to offer
tli.vr services, whiie one University girl
who enlisted as a yoeman was soon af
terward called to the Bremerton navy
post to serve. The s bool of medicine
curtailed its vacations so that the 101S
class could graduate ir. January and
sooner be able to gi\e their service.
Oregon Retained Sanity
Through all (he enthusiam of patriot
ism the University of Oregon maintained
its sanity and urged those who could
better serve their country by remaining
in the University t > complete their train
ing, to do that. And the beginning term
of the year 1017-1S is going ahead with
a u-'.’Te serious sobered tone than before,
but also with si larger freshman class
than before to take up the work of those
in the country’s servire.
LIBRARY GETS 164 BOOKS
New Volumes Constitute Complete Set
of Pacific Reporter.
The University of Oregon law library
recently received 164 volumes of the
Pacific Reporter. These 164 volumes
constitute a complete set. and are im
portant in that they contain all the re
ported decisions of the Supreme Court
of 13 of the western states.
“These hooks are very important to
our law students because it f^ves them
a chance to find the decisions of some
of the other courts besides the Supreme
Court of Oregon,” said Professor R. P.
Reeder, “the reports of the western
states are more valuable to us than those
of some of the other states, since the
graduates of the Oregon law school are
very apt to practice somewhere on the
coast.”
