that we’re in Gamma and Alpha.”
Most of the conversation on
moving day Tuesday centered
around the well-worn question,
“Which one are you in—Gamma
or Alpha?”
Located next door to each oth
er at the north end of the men’s
dorm, these two kails have com
pletely “gone feminine” as far as
personal possessions and the girls,
themselves, are concerned.
According to another dorm
girl, “The wash tub on the first
floor of Alpha is now doing the
work of six of its brothers in the
basement of Hendricks, but the
consensus of opinion seems to be
that things aren’t half bad.”
No Inter-Dorm Dance;
Cause: Lack of Men
Because the small number of
men in the dormitories this term,
the spring term inter-dorm dance,
originally scheduled for May 7,
has been cancelled.
Marie Nichols, chairman of the
affair, stated that the committee
gave up the dance since they
didn’t think it was worthwhile to
put on the affair for so few stu
dents.

Forsyth Writes About Life
Of Armed Forces on Campus
The army, the navy, and the marines have landed on the
campus of the University of Minnesota and already civilian
and military students are cooperating. Sailors have taken over
the drama department in an advisory capacity and rehearsals
are well under way for a May production of the musical comedy
“Hit the Deck.”
This was just part of the news in a bulky letter from Bob
Forsyth, former Oregon student, ——
wno was in the first contingent
leaving this campus for Shep
pard Field, Texas, five weeks ago
and who has just landed in Min
neapolic along with other Ore
gon cadets for University train
ing.
Bob thinks Minneapolis is fine
and it’s “quite a distance from
Texas, thank God!’’
Iioys at Home
Uniforms swarm all over the
Minnesota campus and the boys
in them are made to feel at home.
People have gone all out for the
military boys, says Bob. Parties,
dances, entertainments of all
kinds are the order of the day.
The air corps students are
quartered in the football stadium
in the space beneath the stadium
seats. It’s quite nice, says this
former Oregon boy, and above all
it's free from Texas dust.
Five Months
The men will be at Minnesota
for five months taking a pre
scribed course in history, basic
math, trigonometry, English,
geography, physics, physical edu
cation, drill, and first aid. They
arise at 6 a.m., breakfast at 6:30
attend classes from 7:30 to 4:30,
have retreat from 4:30 to 5, dine
at 5:30, with a recreational pe
riod following from 6:30 to 7:30.
Supervised study period is held
from 7:30 to 10, with lights out
at 10:30. Weekends are free for
the boys to do as they desire.
Hard Schedule
It’s a strenuous schedule, writes
Bob, but he’s glad that he signed
up with the air corps outfit. The
officers are “nice Joes,” and they
go out of their way to be cour
teous and see that their men are
comfortable and well fed.
This former architecture and
art student is particularly im
pressed by the many lovely and
modern buildings on the Univer
sity of Minnesota campus.
“With such surroundings the
next five months won't be hard
to take," he wrotes, “even though
the studies are going to require
hard digging.”
