MAY FORM SECOND BATTALION

FIRST LOT OF RESERVE CORPS' OUTFIT RECEIVED FROM WAR DEPT.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

If the R. O. T. C. commences intensive training following the outbreak of war as is at present expected, new battalions will be formed to take care of the large number of recruits who, it is anticipated, will apply for enrolment in the Corps. Unless war is declared, however, no new men will be permitted to enroll.

One hundred and sixty boxes of clothing for fitting out the cadets were received at R. O. T. C. headquarters yesterday. Since several days will be required for sorting and counting, there will probably be no equipment distributed for at least a week. Each man will receive one regulation olive drab woolen uniform consisting of coat and breeches, one garrison or service cap, and one pair of canvas leggings. Later he will be issued a campaigning hat and hat-cord, a flannel shirt and a pair of shoes. This portion of the cadets' equipment, however, has not yet been received from the War Department, but will probably be on hand by the beginning of the spring term, when field work will be taken up.

A comprehensive schedule, posted last night on the bulletin board in the basement of University Hall, shows the work to be carried on in the course in lectures, drills and section meetings during the concluding two weeks of the term.
