Trials by Summary Courts.

Trials by summary courts decreased
last year over the previous year by 8. 1893,
and these trials represented AZ per cent
of the average enlisted strength of the
army, and decrease of IA per cent from
the year 1910. The reduction of summary
courts, according to the judge advocate
has been accomplished without relaxing
discipline. In the opinion of Gen. Crow
der, one cause for the reduction was
the taking the troops from the routine
duties at Their posts to the maneuver di-
vision, this duty approximated that of
active field service.
However, he feels that the principal
cause for the reduction has been the
growth of the opinion that minor infrac-
tons of discipline can be better punished
by summary discipline than by supjecting
the offender to formal trial, with constant
loss of liberty nav. both.

USE OF PARK BARRED
High School Drill Will Have to
Be Held Elsewhere.
MAY BE ON THE WHITE LOT
Many of the Cadets Object to the
Transfer, But Principals Are
Well Pleased.

The annual company competitive drill
Of the High School Cadets this year will
I'm all proba bility be held on the ellipse of
the White Lot.
Word has been received by the school
officials from President T. c. Noyes of
the Washington Base Ball Club that the
base ball park will not be available this
year for the drill by reason of the push
ing of the work on the new stands.
President Noyes expressed regret that the
cadets would be unable to use the park
this year. but hoped they would be able
to do SO next year.
The fact that the drill cannot be held
in the usual place has been received with
varied feelings by those most deeply in
terested in it. A large portion of the
cadets feel that the drill cannot be as en-
joyable as it was in former years with
out grandstands and bleachers. Many Of
them feel that their friends will be put
to a disadvantage. also, as in all proba-
bility no seating arrangements could be
made OH the ellipse.
Principals Are Pleased.
On the other hand. many, it, indeed, not
all. of the high school principals are said
to be glad that the drill will have to be
held there, as urged by them from time
to time. One Of the principals chief rea-
sons for wishing the drill held there is
that it does away with the distribution Of
tickets, which has long been an annual
problem for the high school principals.
Principal Allan Davis Of the Business
High School said today that he was very
glad tho authorities would have a chance
to try the plan. He said the students
of the various schools could go to the
grounds in time to see their. favorite
companies drill. After that they might
hold little picnics on the Monument
grounds while they waited for the other
companies to finish drilling and the
judges prepare to announce their decision.
ment would be that the schools would
lose only one day from study. while here
tofore they have practically lost two. He
said that not much studying could be
done in school OH the days of the COM
petitive drill. If the plan as presented
by the high school principals some years
ago is adopted there will be but one day
tinue from morning until evening.
Opposition Of Cadets.
The plan Is not so popular with many
Of the school officials. however, as 1t is
with the high school principals. Nor did
it find much favor with the cadets them
selves in previous years when the subject
was broached. With the drill held on
the White Lot, they say, where there are
no seats many of their parents and
grandparents would not be able to at
tend the drill
The exact date of the drill has not
yet been set, but 1t will probably be held
in the middle OF May.
