R.O.T.C. Work Finished For Year;
12 Cadets Will Attend Camp;
New Equipment For Next Year
This year’s activities of the mili
tary department encfed today when
the last group of cadets completed
their rifle practice on the R.O.T.C.
range. The work done by the Cadets
in musketry training has been- very
satisfactory, according to Captain It.
C. Baird, commandant. Over 100
cadets have fired over the course
1 and the average made by the entire
battalion is- slightly over 40 out of
50 possible at each position.
The highest rifle average made
during the year was that of Charles
G. Robertson. Firing fifteen sets, he
averaged 43.5. His high score was
48, which he made twice from 100
i yards, one of these Scores being
made at rapid fire.
Orvin T. Gant, Compapy D, followed
a close second with an average of
42.4. He shot eleven separate times.
His highest score, made from 100
i yards prone, slow fire, was 49.
The highest individual score of the
year was made by Vernon Bullock,
of Company A. Shooting from a
prone position at 100 yards, Bullock
sent ten consecutive shots into the
bull’s eye, tallying 50, which is the
only perfect score made from any
position on the range this year.
Twelve cadets will go to the sum
mer training camp this year, accord
ing to Captain Baird. Captain Baird
will leave for the camp at California
June 14. The cadets will follow four
days later accompanied by members
i of the Oregon training staff. The
camp lasts until July 28. The cadets
who are to make the trip are Wil
liam P. Allyn, Ernest J. Evans, By
ron O. * Garrett, George H. Houck,
Arnold H. Koepke, Newton Langer
rnan, Marc Latham, George Pasto,

The military department expects to
have a large number of upperclass
men enrolled next year. Special
courses of training will be open to
juniors, according to the announce
ment. made by .Captain Baird. Sev
enteen sophomores have already sign
ed up for the advanced work, and
Captain Baird hopes, with the num
ber of seniors who will enroll, to
more than double this number next
year. The two credit course offered
during the last term to all cadets
enrolled in the military department
has been so successful that it will
be offered again next year, the cap
tain states. A 36 page booklet is
being prepared, outlining the com
plete course of R.O.T.C. work through
the four years. These booklets will
be placed in the hands of the cadets
next year in order to give them a
more organized viewpoint of the
work which they are taking up.
Considerable new equipment will be
at hand for training next year. Notice
has been received by the department
that new uniforms have already been
shipped. Five hundred Springfield
rifles have been received which will
be used next year in place of the
Enflelds issued to the cadets this
year. Sergeant James Reid has been
detailed to remain at the barracks
during the summer to supervise a
number of improvements to b.e made
there before fall.
The staff at present, beside Cap
tain Baird, consists of three non
commissioned officers, Sergeant Reid,
Sergeant R. M. Martin and Sergeant
Frank I. Agule. It is hoped that next
year, says Captain Baird, the staff
will be enlarged sufficiently to allow
more individual instruction and
greater latitude in th^ work of the
department.
TWO HIGHER GRADES TO BE AD
DED NEXT YEAR
Size of Classes to Be Limited and
Formal Application Must Be
Made Because of Growth
Beginning next fall the University
High School, which is conducted by
the School of education in Oregon
hall, will he a complete six-year
Senior-Junior high school, according
to an announcement made by Harl
H. Douglass, professor of Secondary
Education, who is director of the
school.
Heretofore the school has included
onlq grades 7 to 10. Grades 11 and
12 will he added next year. The slx
yeur plan, Mr. Douglass says, repre
sents a recent and growing tendency
In school administration for the re
organization of secondary schools.
Under the plan the pupils enter the
high school at the end of the sixth
grade. The school is divided into
junior and senior divisions comps-,
lag the 7th, 8th. 9th, 10th, 11th and
12th grades, respectively. Science,
and a modern language are included
in the curriculum of what is usually,
called the 7th and 8th grades. One
of the features of the new plan is
thi' provision for pupils brighter than

six-year program in live years.
Mr. Douglass also announced that
the enrollment of the school had
reached a point where the size of
the classes would have to bo limited

Graduation
You may be getting ready for graduation; or
maybe your turn doesn’t come for another year
or so—
If you’re going to be a graduate we need hardly
remind you that it’s important to look your best;
a new suit is almost a necessity—
But whether you graduate or not, it’s important
to present a dressed-up appearance on that day—
We’re specialists in young men’s clothes; we make
a particular point of the very smart styles for
young men—
