Soft Touch During the entire program, the government will pay the regular garrison ration of $19 a month. The government will furnish an of ficer-type uniform, complete with field coat and shoes. Books will be supplied on a loan basis by the government. The reestablishment of the pro grams on various campuses are instigated on the requests of the comamjnding generals of the ser vice commands, acting for the war department. Major General Will iam E. Shedd, commanding gen eral of the Ninth Service com mand, under which the University falls, is in charge of this area. Re establishment of the program must, however, follow sufficient evidence of interest on the part of upperclass students. Inasmuch as most of those qualified will come necessarily from the ranks, it is expected that the ex-servicemen will constitute the majority of the classes. Students interested are urged to contact Major Averill in the phy sical education building, as soon as possible. 756 - 760 Willamette EUGENE, OREGON Telephone 3131 Today's World BRITISH TROOPS RUSH to widely-scattered areas of Java af ter Indonesian extremists ran amuck in one village, killing 15 persons including Dutch citizens, and other bands were reported ter rorizing women internees in sever al localities.
