Compulsory Military Training To Be Discussed by Faculty
"Universal military training will be given a complete airing in a meeting of faculty members at 7:30 tonight in room 3 of Green Hall. The meeting was called by the American Association of University Professors at the request of the national organization.
The meeting seeks an expression of opinion on universal military training. There will be an open discussion, but voting will be by ballot.
Assumptions for the discussion are:
If military training is required, it should be given at a time when it would interfere least with the normal educational experiences of the individual.
The most appropriate time for this training would be the completion of high school but neither earlier than 17 years of age nor later than the 21st birthday. All young men physically qualified, whether graduate from high schools or not by their 21st birthday, must take one year of military training.
The training would be continuous for a period of one year, and would be under the exclusive control of the armed forces.
The training program would be broad enough in scope to prepare the trainee physically, mentally, emotionally, and technically for the in
tricate demands of modern mechanized war.
The legislation providing for universal military training would become operative upon the termination of selective service.
Also in the discussion will be included the year which military training should be administered.
National service under governmental control with the including of women in its program will also be discussed as an alternative to the plan of military training.
Navy Band to Play For Second Mid-Week
The second mid-week of the year will be held from 7:30 to 8:30 tonight in the Union lounge, Jane Atwood, vice-president and social chairman of the Student Union Activities, announced today. The music will be supplied by the Navy band under the direction of Don Cousins.
There was a good attendance at the last midweek and we hope that it will be as good tonight, declared Miss Atwood. All University students and service men are invited to come.
