WILL TEACH GUNNERY
Yale Makes Complete Change In
Its Courses.
Plan to Turn Out Expert Artillery.
men--0Iven IS Hours q Week
TO Work.

New Haven, Conn.--Yale university
has taken a long step toward making
itself a second West Point when It an
nounced a complete change In Its
courses designed to turn out expert
artillerymen. The new course pro-
vides for three years Of training for
war. Next fall all students except
those who enter the naval training
course will be given chance to take
Is hours week Of artillery work.
Men taking this course are enrolled
as members of the reserve officers
training corps. There are now over
700 Of them In college. and II Is their
demand for intensified instruction that
led the authorities to take the new
step. 1t will still be possible for men
to take some of the old courses, but
every department of the university will
throw Its main strength into war train
ing.
"The underlying idea Of the action
was this" President Arthur T. Hadley
said: "Any course Of study, to be ef-
fective. must have a motive. In times
Of war the interest Of everybody CEN
ters on military activities. The one
way to keep our classroom work alive
during these years Is to connect stud
les with thssx0rk In which the nation
is engaged" *
