itary training at the University of
Oregon is under consideration in a
committee of the hoard of regents.
Requests have come from many
sources that instruction iu military
tactics be provided. P. L. Campbell,
president of the University, suggests
however that State University prepar

usual regimental drill but of technical
military instruction, such as engineer

premium in warfare; also in bringing
the students to a maximum of physi
cal fitness. He suggests “a minimum
of formal military drill of the old
kind.”
