"The camp this year was the first
we have ever had with full division

camps during the last 80 years, but
this one was the best"

bridges across 60-foot creek at night,
Col. Oehmann explained.
THE men got all the bridges up in
the 80 minutes allowed and the troops
were crossing three minutes after
ward. 1t was dark as the inside of a
hat. and the men had to work with
out lights, of course, and without even
talking. Yet the umpires IS yards
away on the bank didn't hear q
sound" he stated.
That and the successful completion
of our other problems was what
brought the official comment by the
division inspector, which the 121st

work and Washington can be proud Of
them"

In Boston and other large cities, where the cost of single campaigns is prohibitive, the Girl Scouts have become af- filiated with the Young Women's Christian association and toher so- cial and youth agencies in com- munal campaigning for support.

Speaking in connection with the present enrolment of Junior eco campers. the visiting state agent said that the present quota of 905 would not be reached. We expect to enroll about 600 from the state", he said. The reason for the fal- ling down of the number of young applicants, he further stated, was due to employment. A"spot" sur- vey conducted by the ERC, has shown that industry is employing boys between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five.
 Most of the eco juniors in the state, he said, "are listed between these ages and it is natural that they should be inclined to accept private employment where it can be had". The present enrolment period, already extended ten days, will close at the end of the cur- rent week.

DR. MACINTOSH
 ACCUSING YALE
Says Professor Jerome Davis Was Discharged
 Because of Views

New Haven, Conn, Oct. 26-(UP) Prof. Douglas c. Macintosh of Yale Divinity School, whose refusal to bear arms for the United States in event of war caused the Supreme Court to refuse him citizenship charged he has evidence which in- dicateS conclusively" that Prof. Jerome Davis was discharged from the divinity school faculty because of his economic views.
 Statements of President James Rowland Angel and Divinity School Dean Luther Weigle, Prof. MacIn- tosh said, that budgetary retrench- ment forced dismissal of Dr. Davis, an avowed enemy of capitalism, "are in great danger of being mis- leading in their effect"
 Davis, for 12 years on the divinity school faculty, was informed last week his services no longer would be needed after June, 1887.
 Evidence Exists
 '"There exists evidence" MacIn- tosh, Canadian said, which I can refer to more specifically and de- scribe more fully if and when it seems necessary, which to my mind indicated conclusively that economic views expressed by Dr. Davis from time to time and particularly in his recent book Capitalism and its Culture, taken together with the antagonistic reaction of consider able number of Yale alumni to the same, did undeniably figure among the underlying causes of his being dropped from the faculty"
 T regard Dr. Davis," continued Macintosh, "as one of the most in fluential and valuable members of the divinity school faculty"
 Dr. Macintosh referred to com ments made by leading educators on Dr. Davis book, he said Professor Emeritus John Dewey of Columbia university made this comment:
 "The solid and clear exposition of the relations of the capitalistic sys- tenn to our culture makes this book invaluable to every teacher and director of schools"
 Referring to unsuccessful efforts to persuade Prof. William Graham Sumner, when he taught at Yale, to discontinue using Herbert Spen- cer's Principles of Sociology" as a textbook, pr. Macintosh said:
 "All true friends of Yale must earnestly wish that so valuable and long established a precedent might always be scrupulously observed and followed, not only in philosophy and the natural sciences, but in eco monies and social ethics as we'll"
 The student council of the Divin- ] ity School and the American Fed eration of Teachers have petitioneo the Yale corporation to renew Dr Davis appointment after its expi- |! ration in 1887.
