R. O. T. C. Notes
(The activities of the R. O. T. C. camp for engineers at Fort Leavenward is reported by Glen Wakely and J. French McGaughy)
Seventeen engineering students at the University of Kansas left Saturday evening for the camp at Leavenworth, and Sunday morning met the army from the University of Iowa, Iowa State Agricultural College, the University of Missouri, Missouri School of Mines, of Wyoming University, Wichita University and the University of Arkansas.
Sunday was an informal day, with physical examinations and initiation into the routine of camp. Following the examination came a "hand-out," not of food but of clothing. One is extremely lucky if he obtains clothing approaching his own size. An illustration will suffice to prove this statement. One of the K. U. men had his foot measured for the army gunboats. 10E was his size, but all the 10E's had been distributed so that the officer in charge called for $10\%$ D. That, too, was missing. Finally the man was fitted with a shoe size 11C. He can take two steps without moving a shoe, which all goes to prove that an engineer is very ingenious when it comes to perfecting a labor saving device.
Monday morning furnished the first opportunity for the army men to look over the advantages that are traditionally given to the early bird. It was cloudy and so the beauty of the sunrise was missed, but indications point to several opportunities in the near future to witness this event.
The grub is typical of army fare—beans were served for lunch Monday noon. We are enjoying excellent leadership, and have a wonderful camp hostess. The K. U. men are looking forward to forming many profitable friendships with the representatives of the other schools.
Those present from the University are: E. D. Chapin, Carl E. Williams, A.T. Ashton, O. R. McJunkins, M. J. Cuadra, J. C. Brous, Raleigh H. Macklin, R. J. Straight, P. H. Shuler, R. E. Johnson, Charles A. Wagner, Jr., LeeBert Glass, Creston Alexander, Howard W. Coldren, J. F. McGaughey, Oakley Bullock, and Glen Wakely.
Watkins Hall Was Given to University in 1926
Watkins hall, the yellow brick building located at the edge of the campus, east of Fraser hall, will begin the sixth year of its existence with the opening of school this fall. The hall is a dormitory for self-supporting women students. It was a gift to the University from Mrs. Elizabeth Watkins, the donor of the new student hospital now under construction.
This conveniently located house accommodates 37 women. A large living room, sun parlor, guest room, and the housemother's apartment are on the first floor. The second and third floors consist of study rooms, baths, supply
closets, and the sleeping porches. A large dining room and council room, laundry room, and seven separate kitchenettes are in the basement. The girls do their own work, including the preparing and serving of their own meals, which is done in groups of five or six girls, each girl sharing equally the expenses incurred by her group. The cost of food varies with the individual group.
The privilege of living in the hall during the regular school year is granted in the form of scholarships, awarded by the scholarship committee of the University. Since its opening in September, 1926, 145 girls have lived in Watkins hall, according to Mrs. R. C. Morrow, housemother. The number mentioned does not include summer

school students. During the summer session rooms are rented on the same basis as at Corbin hall.
The scouts, a picked group, will spend two weeks traveling by bus through the eastern states. The tentative route calls for visits to Minneapolis, Detroit, Chicago, Toronto, Can., and Niagara Falls. Judge E. E. Kirkland, of Liberty, president of the area council, will be in charge of the tour.
