When asked whether either he or
any other member of his family had
been threatened with any punishment
by the British government for failure
to enlist. Mr.. Golding said, There
has at no time been any impressing
of English citizens into the army. We
are simply answering the call of our
country Many OF Us would have done
it sooner had we fully realized the
gravity of the situation. 1t was not
until the Germans raided the English
coast that we really realized the dan
ger confronting u.s.

around the dairy department other
members of the faculty and students
enrolled in the course may also leave
to join either the allies or the Ger
man army as there are, a large num-
