R.O.T.C. Ratings Policy Changed Old System of Inspecting Units Now Taboo No distinguished rating will he given any university or college It. O T. C. unit this year due. to a change in policy of inspection hy the war department, Dr. Arnold Ben nett Hall is informed in a letter from Major General J. L. Ilines of the army. Colonel William 8. Sinclair, to whom the communication was for warded points out that this is the result of the difficulties which have arisen in llie past concerning the classification of the different units. Under the old system, all units—ar tillery, infantry, flying, cavalry, machine gun, and motor transport— were grouped under one head and inspected for distinguished rating without regard to classification. The similar units were not grouped under separate heads with their own stand ards of inspection. “It was like grouping all of the animals at a stock show—pigs, goats, cattle horses, and so on—and judg ing them on the standards of a cow or some other one animal,” Colonel Sinclair declared, in commenting on the system. For this year,'the war department is having each unit inspected by the various commanders of the corps area. For the local uhit, Major H. Waddell, commander of the Ninth Corps area, will conduct the inspec tion April IS. In the meantime, the department is studying the matter of classification.
