...assume the guise of recruiting officers. This will work little hardship on the men now in college who know the difference between V-1 and Army enlisted reserve and who have checked on their qualifications for each, but the maze of available delayed-action enlistment plans can only add to the bewilderment of the new Freshman. High pressured into enlisting with the rest of his class within a few weeks of his arrival in New Haven, the confused reservist will find himself with two years of hard-earned deferment in which to decide which branch of the service he should...

He had more than rain to worry about: the loyal crowd of "wool-hat" boys (small farmers) who always turn out to "hear The Man," was smaller than usual; of ten bands invited to add to the din, only the one from Moultrie High School showed up.
