 THE HIGH SCHOOL
Program to Build Physique of Boys Is Being Made
 By Slawson.

Bridgeport boys may have military training given them through the local schools during the coming year. While no announcement has yet been made, it is known that Supt. s. J. Slawson and members of the board of educa- ton have the matter under consid- eration and it only-requires the aps proval of the details for the program to be put into effect. The work will undoubtedly start first with the High school. and be carried down to the higher grades of the grammar school.
 The idea. of military training was suggested just before the close of school by the announcement that many young men apparently eligible for the army, failed to be accepted because of physical defects primarily due to a lack of physical development properly directed It was first thought that a systematized course in athletics would overcome this difficulty and make the young men of the future bet ter physically, but the swift moving events of the last few months have caused the attention to be turned ser iously to the subject of military train ing, by which the physical develop ,ment could, be carried out Tn a way that would serve the double purpose of fitting the future young men for their-countrys seFEices
