MAJOR PLANS
R. 0. T.C. WORK
Survey Being Made of Con-
ditions at University BY
Commandant.

Opening temporary headquarters in
the old S. A. T. c.. Offices in Davis hall,
Major Albert E.. Brown, recently de-
tailed as &C. O." of the University of
North Dakota reserve officers train
ing corps, is now making a survey of
the U situation, preparatory to
starting the real work.
Il am not prepared to say yet just
how much I think can be lone before
or any of the military work." said
Major Brown. after a few days sur
vey of prevailing conditions, I pre-
sumo I may be in a position to speak
more freely"
Major Brown has relieved Captain
Calder in his work of looking after
the government supplies at the uni
versity which he has been doing since
the rehabilitation order affecting the
students army training corps went in
to effect last December.
The number and rank of the officers
appointed in the reserve officers
training corps will depend upon the
number of men taking the military
work according to Major Brown.
Should a battalion, consisting of two
companies of men be formed, which
is the present plan, officers necessary
for the carrying on of the work Of the
battalion will be appointed.
The original government plan for
the r. o. T. c. urse at state uni
versities and colleges called for four
years of work on the part of the stu
dents electing the course. The first
ewo years are required of practically
all students, the work of the last two
years being optional. During the first
two years the schedule called for
three hours of military work, the
large part of the time being devoted
to drill.
The work of the last two years was
to include allied military subjects to
be given with the cooperation of the
school Of engineering. . In all cases
regular university credit is given.

HUM HATS FOR
LOAN WORKERS
Information of Flying Cir
Gus Tonight-Speakers
Start Campaign.

Twenty-six German helmets, direct
from the front, will be furnished for
distribution to Victory Liberty Loan
workers in Grand Forks county. The
helmets are to be distributed at the
discretion Of the county chairman.
1t has been suggested that the war
trophies be awarded county workers
on a competitive basis, that they be
auctioned to the highest bidder, or
heaviest purchaser of bonds. The
fairest of methods for distribution are
desired and it is probable that the
relics Of the Hun armies will be
awarded strictly according to the
merit Of county loan workers.
Definite information regarding the
much heralded Flying Circus to be
staged here will be received this We
ming, according to Chairman E. j.
Lander. The Circus" proposed in
the interest Of the loan will be con-
government with army airmen per
forming.
Speaking Campaign.
The speaking campaign in Grand
Forks in charge of H. w. Bishop will
begin Thursday evening with four
minute speakers at the theaters and
to speak at the loan picture to be
shown at the Orpheum on Thursday
and Friday afternoons.
Chairman o. B. Burtness of the
speakers bureau has arranged for
speakers to address audiences at a
number Of meetings throughout the
county the latter part of the week.
Soldiers and sailors are being used to
some extent in the speaking campaign.
