ing as carefully provided for in the
high schools OF this state as other
training. Cheyenne high has added
fundamental military training to those
studies commonly offered in most
high schools.
The cadet system began as purely
voluntary organization The first
co-ps was organized by Lieut.. Edgar
q. Steever OF the regular army de-
tailed to instruct the Wyoming Ma
tional guard.
His natural ability to lead made It
easy for him to interest so boys. They
bought their own uniforms, paying
SIS each. They showed such earnest
ness and proficiency that Steever soon
was able To get the use or militia
arms for their drills.
The Cheyenne cadets steadily won
recognition and support from the
school authorities and the state mile
tia. Then Uncle Sam stepped in and
offered them regular army guns II a
member OF the school board and the
SUPERINTENDENT of schools would give
bond guaranteeing their return.
Uncle Sam also offered to give the
cade cts 100 rounds OF ammunition an
nually.. for target practice.
Students at Carspar, Laramie and
Rawlins high schools organized cadet
corps before state aid for the work
was available. Newcastle, Douglas
and Lander organized last fall.
The state now pays Sc toward each
cadets uniform, providing he refratns
from the use of tobacco during the
school year. .-s.
Steever Injected a strong element of
sport into the drill work from the be-
ginning. He made 1t seem like play
instead Of work.
"You kids don't have to join this
corps unless you want to-" Stever told
them. Il want as big a corps as pos
sible, but l won't stand for any mon
key business"
The indoor work today is thorough
drill in the manual of arms-s same as
the regular -uses-in Butts manual,
said to be the most thorough system
Of physical exercises ever devised, and
