R. 0. 7. C. UNIT
AT De PAUW IS
NEAR REMOVAL
Army Corps Area Heads
Say Oman Cause of
Less Interest.

De Paw univerSity's reserve Of
ficers training corps, which has been
associated with the university since
April 1861, when two companies of
the Asbury Guards were organized
faces Punishment from the Green
castle campus, unless enrolment in
the unit increases.
War department officials from the
fifth corps area have been in
vestigating the De Paw situation to
discover why the enrolment dropped
from $40 in 1928-'29 to Isl students
last year. They charge that G..
Bromley Oman, De Paw president,
has been influential in the lessened
student interest toward military
training.
Blamed for Shifting
Oman largely was responsible for
the shifting of the unit from a COM
pulsory to an optional basis in 1923,
the war department stated in its
charges.
Henry H. Hornbrook, Indianapo-
lis, secretary of the board of truS-
tees for the university, declared Fri
day that to his knowledge, although
the matter of military training had
been discussed in board meetings,
no definite action ever has been
taken by the board.
James M Ogden, Indianapolis,
former attorney general, also a
member of the board of trustees,
stated Friday that he was in SYM
pathy with the unit and had taken
military training himself while an
undergraduate at De PAW. He
further said that he hoped the corps
would continue at De PAW.
FavOrs World Peace
Methodist officials interviewed
Friday said that the Methodist
church was in favor of world peace
and in the event that a controversy
would arise as to the adviSability of
R. o. T. c. at De Paw that the
Indiana Methodist area would back
| Oman.
Indications reveal, however, that
many alumni who previously have
been in sympathy with Oman in
other disputed matters would not
back any move to withdraw mill
tary training.
The De PAW unit has had high
ranking in r. o. T. G. college rating
and has received the Honor Col
lege" award several times. The war
department reports that although
the smallness of the unit imperiled
it's efficiency last spring, 1t made
an excellent showing.
Student sentiment toward the unit
has been slack with Scabbard and
Blade, military fraternity, as the
only organized support. The war
department claims that OXnam's
avowed pacifist convictions here de-
creased the morale Of the corps in
the eyes of the student body.
1t was reported Friday that the
tactical officers had left Greencastle
and that the equipment was packed,
but that the officers had been re-
called and are back on the campus.

A cross eyed bandit armed with a

Michigan street.
Part of the money was from the

mainder from pockets of Lee Wad-
dell, 425 North Forest avenue, man
ager, who was alone in the store
when the robber entered.
The bandit, about 20, escaped on
