University of Oregon, Eugene, Feb. 4. In four weeks, Lieutenant Colon el John Leader, commandent of the University battalion and Instructor in military science, has converted the 300 men in the- University battalion, who hardly knew the rudiments, of the manual of arms into a unit work ing with precision and accuracy. Elgnt bours of military work a week is being required of every man in the University who is able to shoul der a gun. All of the military in struction is being carried on with the idea that the men will have actual use for it when they get to Europe. This semester for the first time milltar science Is being taught as a profession and is becoming a major department Instead of a side issue. Colonel Leader is fitting his cadets for officers. He believes that the United States needs officers trained in military science even more than it needs privates. President Campbell, who is at pre sent in Washington, D. C, has been sending encouraging messages in re gard to a reserve officers' training camp at the University. Application for training camp rating has been made. Out on the University golf course are being constructed trenches, dug outs, machine gun emplacements, barbed-wire entanglements, sapping tunnels, first aid pits, sniping pits and other contrivances of the battle front. The art of camouflaging is not being neglected. Colonel Leader has called upon the girls to help in this. A row of dummies labeled "Bos che" is made to suffer while the cad ets practice bayonet drill, and already the boys are becoming adept in the art of throwing dummy bombs. Add to these the manual of arms, drill, rifle practice, and lectures three times a week by Colonel Leader and you have an idea of the training un der the present regime. In all, the University Id offering more than 20 different courses in mil itary science. With an aim of being tk. greatest, possible service to the eouatayv tft UnkrwBity has made spe cial provlste whereby everyone de sirous of training is- given an oppor tunity to secure the military training offered here.
