v. S. c. PROVIDES
FOR ARMY WORK
Regents win Extend Field of USE
fnlness of Institution in Training
Men for War Work

A comprehensive plan for increas-
ing the usefulness of the State Col
lege III training men for war work
was adopted by the board of regents
at their special meeting held In Spo-
kane last Friday. The board voted
unanimously to make the appropria-
tons necessary to comply with the
request of the war department that
the college provide technical training
throughout the entire year for enlist
ed and drafted men who are assigned
to mechanical or technical training
to fit them for war work. The gov
eminent plan will not interfere in
any way with the regular courses
maintained by the college during the
school year, and added facilities will
be provided for the soldier-m echan-
les who will be sent here in increased
numbers after the first assignment
of 300 men, now under training,
completes its specified work on Au-
gust | 8.
The second delegation OF soldier
mechanics to be sent to the State Col
lege will total over 500, according to
information already at hand, and 1t
Is not improbable that still greater
increases will be made from time to
time.
The soldiers will be trained in sep
temporary nature. to be constructed
for this purpose. One of the first
buildings to be constructed, under
the program adopted by the regents,
will be mammoth mess hall, to ac-
comodate upwards OF 500 men. Sew
eral shop buildings also will be con-
structed to take care of the mechan-
ical classes.
Two hundred men to receive train
ing in automobile work will be in
cluded in the August quota of 500,
and more will come In September.
It is the intention of the war depart
ment to conduct the technical train
ing camp here, known as the State
College Training Detachment, until
midsummer of 1919 at least, and the
regents fully acquiesced in this plan
at their Spokane meeting.
1.-THE college will train mechanics,
electrical engineers, craftsmen and
men in other technical lines for the
government" said E. r. Conan,
president of the board. I'VE have
decided to do this In a patriotic re-
spouse to the governments appeal
for trained men. This Is a technical
war and there is a serious shortage
of trained men such az are needed.
THE government takes care Of the
actual expenses of the men who Will
be sent to Pullman. The college will
construct buildings, covering a con-
siderable area, but of cheap construc-
ton, sim liar to that in the other
army camps, and will install addi-
tional equipment to handle the big
increment in its student population.
We want especially to emphasize that
this will not in any way interfere
with the regular courses at the col
lege in the present buildings. New
quarters will be erected for the army
men"

Tuesday night of the large Stacker
monument erected Monday evening
to call attention to the four men OF
the community who had refused to
help win the war through the pur-
chase of Liberty Bonds or war say

The monument was of frame con-

and One-half feet square at the base
and one foot square at the top. 1t
was painted vivid yellow, and at
the bottom was painted the word

morning of the prints of a woman

fell during the night and smoothed
out the dust so that the shoe prints
were easily distinguishable. Not a

by the fire and nothing was known
of the affair until the following
