ANOTHER HONOR FOR j, Y. N.
War Department Places institu-
ton in distinguished Class
Ten Cadet Officers Now Eligible to
Appointment As second Iieuten-
ants in Regular Army without
Further Examination.

The University Of Vermont has gained
another honor and one which it never
attained before. \ telegram from the
war department to President Benton ro-
ceivcd Sunday was to the effect that
the university had heen placed by the
war department in the distinguished
class" This is an honor never before at
tanned by Vermont university. 1t means
that all those cadet officers who have
been through tho military course and
reached the rank Of captain and major
are eligible to appointment to the rank
Of second lieutenant i'm tho United states
army Will out further examination. The
action of the war department in thus
DISTINGUISHING the university is very
complimentary to the efficiency of the
military instructor. Captain Ira H..
Reeves Presidcn. Benton is much
pleased with the service Of Captain
Reeves and Sunday he sent the latter
congratulatory message to Bradford
where Captain Reeves was the guest OF
Captain johnson of the Vermont National
Guard.
There are ten cadet officers in the
university who are thus eligible to APP
pointment to the rank of second li"u'
tenants in the regular army, and it Il
probable that some of them will take ad-
vantage Of the opportunity to obtain a
commission. In most militar' schools or
universities where military instruction is
given the course does not contemplate
the working out Of involved military
problems. When Captain Schindel of the
general staff of the United States army
was In Burlington on a tour of inspection
he had opportunity to see military prob
! lens worked out and was satisfied with
/ the excellent quality of the instruction
