...conduct a brief financial campaign in the University and Graduate Schools. The amount collected in this, together with that of the smaller campaign held last autumn, was $4,690, a total greater than even last year's subscription of $4,346.44. Such results are very gratifying, but one cannot help feeling that, if the number of contributions indicates the amount of interest and sympathy in the student body for the work of the Association, there ought to be 2000 instead of 550 names on the list of those subscribing.

This statement raises a very interesting and difficult problem in connection with military training at colleges and universities. It is obvious that each university cannot reasonably be expected to maintain R. O. T. C. units in all branches of the service; and on the other hand, all colleges cannot seize upon the same branch of service to the exclusion of fancied less desirable ones. Heterogeneous action of this sort would inevitably result in a bad proportionment...
