of World of Plan to Resume
Studies at School of Mines
Butte, August.-Army majors to
privates, an officer of the British
Army, naval ensigns and apprentice
seamen, as well as native of Bonn
bay, India and Bolivia will be on the
campus at Montana School of Mines
Sept. "a when the first formal school
year since 1912 is resumed, judging
by heavy mail from servicemen and
civilians who have declared their in
tention to attend this school.
These men have been scattered
across the world and are now starting
the long trek back. The returning
group already includes numerous for
mer students who left school to enter
the service. The majority Of these
men, and few women from the serv-
ice as well, have had intensive tech
nical training in electronics, steam en-
cheering, hydraulics, aviation, me-
teorology and other phases of service
work. They write that they now re-
alize the value of complete four
year course in engineering in the miI,-
eral industry and are taking advan-
tage of the G. I. Bill of Rights to get
it.
For those who entered the service
before completing their high school
work, DR.. Francis A. Thomson, presi-
dent, is considering giving sub-fresh-
man work, that they may pick up
their studies where they were inter-
rupted, and, at the same time give
these young men a college environ
ment.
