In a letter TO Prof. Louis Bred
void of the University of Michigan
faculty, Admiral c. w. Nimitz
wrote that the square root of all
the trouble with potential naval
officers is that they lack the ade-
quate training in mathematics
which they should receive in high
school and college.
Forty per cent Of the applicants
for ensign commissions are re-
jected because of mathematics, he
added.
