, "While the return of a number of sol
tlierg on the campus from periods of
several months service in the army and
jyet who still have their lower division
rating in the University the question has
been raised on the campus whether these
men will he required to drill when re
entering the University.
! In an interview with Colonel W. H. C.
[Bowen, professor of military tactics at
ithe University and who is in charge of
fthe R. O. T. C. at the University, the
(position of these men was made clear.
f“These men,” Col. Bowen said, “can by
applying to the University authorities
fbe excused from drill if it is considered
that they have had sufficient work along
(that line. They must, however, get their
,«xcuse from the authority that made
the ruling making drill compulsory for
freshmen aud sophomores, and not from
me. We are trying to get the upper
classmen to drill the R. O. T. C., es
pecially those who have had military
training but it is not compulsory.”
Must Wear Whole Uniform.
The men are required to wear the
./hole uniform or none when the E. O.
T. C. uniforms arrive, he said, but with
the S. A. T. C. uniforms which the men
now have they may wear them as they
please ns there is no authority on the
campus since the discontinuance of the
g. A. T. C. to regulate the way tli^ men
(wear them. However, Colonel Bowen
depends upon the students to see that
when a freshman wears a full uniform
that he also wears the campaign hat,
nnd designate his status as a freshman
by wearing green ribbon on the left
phest pocket. It is an order, however,
be said, that discharged men must wear
im the upper part of the left sleeve the
ted discharge chevron.
Expected to Salute.
Concerning salutes Colonel Bowen ex
rplained that when a man is in uniform
jhe ought to as a matter of courtesy
ifrom one gentleman to another give the
'military salute and though he may be
discharged from the service he has on
the uniform of the United States Army,
and as such should recognize by the.
salute a commissioned officer who also
appears in full uniform.

Ella Dews, in Charge, Asks Old
Magazines and Clippings

Room 31! in the upstairs of the li
brary is undergoing all manner of
change at the hands of the University
['historian, Ella Dews and her commit
'ee of workers who have become arch
aeologist in the true sense of the word
l in their efforts to dig up interesting
feets and souvenirs in connection with
Oregon’s history.
“Next week the office will be open
, every day,” said Ella Dews, “so that the
committees can gather material for
their various departments from the
copies and files of University papers
and magazines which are kept in the
room.” Since each department is to
have a scrap book containing all mate
rial of interest pertaining to that sec
tion from the foundation of the Univer
sity to the present, old college publica
tions will be especially useful to the
committet members, and Ella Dews has
nfcked that students who have Univer
sity magazines or papers in their pos
session will turn them over to her.
Already the walls of the room mark
ed “University History and Records-’
have taken on the appearance of a
museum and are sporting such Univer
sity valuables as the “Roll of Honor,”
the list of college women who have con
tributed their time and labor toward
the construction of the University Rat
talion Colors; and the Forensic Shield
Bound copies of all University month
lies and tri-weeklio<! and other minor

The committees are planning to make
a feature of the “Oregon Plistory and

be ready for inspection. Athletic cups

National Military Training Camps As
sociation will be divided into 0 camps
of 15 days each. Colonel .Tohn Leader,
who will be in command, announced to
day. The camps will be so arranged that
men attending them may remain for two
consecutive 15 day sessions. The first
15 days will be devoted to the more
routine work of drills and several lec
tures a day on military sciences. These
courses will give the necessary training
for the reserve officers who are re
quired to take 15 days of such training
a year.
The second 15 days will he given over
to maneuvers, field days, one parade and
probably only one lecture a day, trench
warfare, and gas attacks. There will be
no interval between these two consec
utive 15 day camps. Between this group
and the next, there will be a week or
more of rest.
Games Get Emphasis.
Games of all kinds will be emphasized
in the camps this summer. In the sec
ond 15 day camp there will he two base
ball games every week. Company
leagues will be organized which will com
pete with each other and sometimes out
side teams on Saturdays.
Colonel Leader will lecture on Amer
ican military history of the past 150
years. Iieotures will also be given in
topography. Rcieuee of tactics, field en
gineering, bombing and bayoneting.
Camps will bo limited to 200 men, but
men may apply for two camps in succes
sion. The probable date of opening is
June 15. Tents which will be furnished
by the Training Camps Association will
be set up on the “N’o Man’s Land” of
last summer’s camp.
Course for High Schools.
Although the bill providing for com
pulsory military training in the high
schools of the state did not pass the
house, the training will be given in 20
high schools of Oregon which asked
Colonel John Leader to organize the
work the first of the year.
Colonel Leader will emphasize the ed
ucational and physical side of the work
in the training in the schools. Three
hours a week will be devoted to it. with
only an occasional drill. ‘‘Of (he forty
seven military sciences. T place drill
forty-first.” Colonel Leader said today.
‘‘Its primary object is discipline, and I do
not consider this necessary for boys
who are receiving this training in other
ways.”
Three Hours Required.
Three hours a week required work
will be divided between lectures on mil
itary subjects and games. “I am strong
ly in favor of all games which develop
team work and which are thoroughly
democratic,” says Colonel Leader.
Military History of the United States
will be particularly emphasized by Col
omel Leader. Lectures will be given
in military topography, which aids in
surveying, and military engineering,
science of tactics, and bombing and
bayoneting.
Tn each of the towns taking the mil- j
itary training, there are either men in |
the town or on the faculty of the school
who have had work under the Colonel in
the training camps at the University last
summer, who will give the lectures and ,
drill.

HEAVIEST OF GUNS
Navy Veteran on Campus After
Two Years in France and
South America.
Dell Stannnrd, \H, is back on the cam
pus, after having served with the liav^in
South America and France for two year*.
He is visiting at the Kappa Sigma house
of which fraternity he is a member.
On April 6. 1917, Stannnrd, with the
Oregon Naval Volunteers went ou board
the U. S. S. Dakota and sailed to San
Diego where they joined the rest of the
fleet and went to South America to pour
the oil of American assistance on the
troubled political waters of that
country, but no action was taken. They
went first to Guatemala,then to I'nnamn,
through the caual to Brazil, visiting Rio
de Jnneiro, which, Stannnrd says, is a
wonderful city. They stayed at Monte
video 13 days and were treated royally
by the Y. M. C, A., an entertainment be
ing given for them every day or evening.
At Buenos Aires, where the British gov
ernment owns most of the public service
utilities, Stnnnard declared they couldn’t
spend a nickel. Everything was free to
them and several big banquets were giv
en them.
After South America severed relations
with Germany a great parade was given
in Rio de Janeiro on the Fourth of July.
British, French and Brazilian vessels
were on parade with the American fleet
and that was the first time .according to
Mr. Stannard, that an American flag flew
above the British on a flag ship.
Ileturning to Xew York in November,
Stunnard saw the wreckage at Halifax
after the gigantic explosion. ‘‘What 1
saw there,” said Stannard, "was us great
| or greater than any scenes of destruction
that 1 saw in France.”
While stationed at Hampton Roads.
Va„ after the reurn of the fleet from
South America Stannard hud a chance
to join the United States naval railway
batteries and left for France last May.
He was in the fighting at T>aon and later
at Verdun. "We used the largest and
longest range guns at the front with the
exception of the Big Berthas,” said Stan
nard. "They were 14-inch JO calibre guns
and fired a 1470 pound shell for 28
miles.”
While in France at an artillery base
Stannard saw Graham E. MeConnel. Ore
gon’s champion half-mile truck runner
in 101”. Tie met the late Captain John E.
Kuykendall’s ambulance train but did not
have an opportunity to see Kuykendall.
Stannard returned to the United States
on the U. S. S. New York flagship with
the grand fleet, just after Christmas.
1018, and worked in United Suites naval
laboratories until lie received his dis
charge. He expects to return to hiR home
in Portland today and will re-enter the
University of Oregon medical school in
the fall. Stannard says it is great to be
back on the campus and expressed sur
prise at the way the University has re
adjusted itself so quickly to a beforc
the-war basis in all its activities.

Harold Tregilgas. member of the
class of 1018, on furlough from the
navy training station at Mare Island,
was on the pampas yesterday arranging
his credits for a degree. His training
in the navy since Pocomhor, 1017. has
been counted as sufficient credits to
make for his graduation, without fur
ther work in the University.
“Trig” who returned to California
this summer is awaiting his commis
sion as ensign after having completed
his last five months’ of training. There
were 27 men in his class, 18 of whom

Nail-Carrying and
Reporting Jobs Not
Without Advantage
And now it is known just why Mr.
Donald Duncan beams so broadly when
he comes out of the Household Arts
department after depositing the morn
ing's mail there.
He was seen and observed closely by
several spectators the other day when
he casually entered the building with
the usual package of mail.
A irather prolonged space of time
elapsed, but at length that gentleman
came forth with a wide and cheerful
smile overspreading his countenance, yet
there seemed to be no visible cause for
said smile.
The next day n roportng sleuth fol
lowed 'Mr. Duncan into the laboratory
and solved the mystery.
The reporter found that on that par
ticular morning the Food and Nutrition
class was giving a breakfast ns part of
its class work and also had given a prac
tical demonstration of food and nutri
tion' to the most grateful and apprecia
tive reporter and to the deliverer of

Further investigation revealed that,
such things often happen on that bent.
