Cadet Corps Strength
Prompts Request for
More Army Rifles

Delighted school officials today
were asking the Army for more
rifles for the High School Cadet
Corps. Not many weeks ago, it
was feared the Army support
would be withdrawn because OF
low cadet enrollments.
1t. Col. William E. Barkman,
head OF the department of mill
tary science and tactics in the
city's white high schools. said
cadet enrollments had more than
doubled since last semester. There
are now 1.345 boys in the corps
and recruiting is continuing.
Last semester only 500 boys en-
rolled.
The sudden change in the trend
Of enrolment is the result of in
terest spurred by a volunteer
group of parents and certain
changes in the cadet program.
School principals. accused Of being
|lukewarm toward the cadets, have
been giving full support to recruit
ing efforts In the schools.
Army Gave Warning.
The enrollmentS had dropped
so low last semester that the
Army warned it would have to
Withdraw its support If something
was not done. The Army fur
|nishes rifles and some ammuni-
ton for firing practice.
Col. Barkman called on Army
officials at Fort Myer today to
see about getting more rifles. The
cadets had 800 rifles in the school
armorieS last semester.
Now the cadets need more rifles
so the new recruits can drill.
Typical of the new efforts being
expended in behalf of the cadets
is the Regimental Ball planned at
Western High School next Thurs
day. It is sponsored jointly by
the cadets of the school and the
Association Of Parents Of Cadets.
ALI Students Invited.
All students of the school,
whether cadets or not. have been
invited to the ball as well as
alumni. School clubs have NOM
mated princesses and the cadets
will vote one of them cadet queen.
She will be crowned the night Of
the ball.
The cadets in the colored schools
have not had the same enrolment
problems of the cadets in the white
high schools. Mai. Benjamin l..
Hunton, director of military
science and tactics for the colored
schools, said enrolment in the
cadets totaled 1900. this is several
hundred above that of last
semester.
