Coach Shay will send his undefeated Freshman nine into the game against Dean Academy at Soldiers Field this afternoon at 4 o'clock with an unchanged line-up. Either H. S. Russell, W. B. Rice, or E.

These two courses will give a man a general knowledge and a good basis for further training in this branch of the service. If, however, on the satisfactory completion of Military Sciences 1 and 2, a student desires to continue further study in Military Science, he must, in order to receive a commission and com- mutation of rations, which amount to approximately...
