UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
KANSAS GRADS ENTER MILITARY SERVICE
University Men Serve As Officers In National Guard Organizations
REPRESENT ALL SCHOOLS
Many Professions Are Included In List of Men In Service
Few schools without compulsory military, training can show a record equal to that of the University of Kansas graduates in actual military service. The first regiment of the Kansas National Guards at the border last summer contained eighteen graduates.
The colonel of the regiment, Wilder S. Metcalf, was graduated from the University law school in 1897. One of the four majors of the regiment, Hugh Means is also a graduate, finishing in 1895. Of the sixteen capitals he attended, two are Fairchild, one is University graduates. Among the lieutenants the University is represented by five men. The lieutenants who are graduates of K. U. are: J. S. Alford, A. J. Thompson, Darl James, Lester Strike and E. C. Fisher. Among the seargents A. J. Ginn, Blinko and Daum are University graduates. Two others, Kanaga and Itoh, are University graduates. K. U. Carl Brown, W. G. Johnston and Wayne Edwards served as privates. In case of another call for the militia due to the present crisis these men would all be in service again. In addition to these Joseph W. Murray who was on the reserve list last summer and did not see service on the border but was assigned to recruiting duty is now Captain of the headquarter company and adjutant of the regiment.
John S. Amick, former member of attacker is captain of Battery A, field artillery
Dr. James Naismith, head of the physical training department at the University served as chapin of the first regiment last summer and would serve in the same capacity in case of another call. F. E. Jones, head of the shops in the School of Engineering is captain of Company M.
Besides these graduates and members of the University faculty one company is entirely made up of K. U. students. The hospital corp while not an University organization is largely made up of K. U. students.
BY THE WAY
Data on the graduates in service show that the College of Liberal Arts, the School of Law, the School of Medicine and the School of Engineering are all represented. Many different professions are represented. Two are business men, four are lawyers, three are doctors, one is a doctor, one is a preacher, one is a teacher, one is a theological student and two are newspaper men. In athletics the regiment can boast of men from the K. U. football team, the baseball team, track men and a member of the tumbling team.

COMPANY M IS READY FOR NATIONAL SERVICE
Captain Jones Expects to Receive Call by End of Next Week
"I fully expect Company M to be called into active service by the last of next week," said Capt. P. E. Jones, who probably will be called in the federal service the same as they were last summer. The Kansas guards are not the first to be called because there needs Kansas that needs immediate guarding.
"Better opportunity is offered students in joining Company M than in joining the regular army or other companies, because this company is better able to gain greater ability for service, and soon gains this reputation. There are now fifty men in Company M, and in case it is called out its size probably will be increased to 150; giving an oppor-tunity to one hundred more students to enlist."
Several students of the University have made applications to the war department to take examinations for second lieutenant in the reserve army. If these applications are granted, the men will be required to pass a severe physical examination as well as an educational examination.
Members of the reserve army are to be called out only in case of war. University students in taking this examination, for they will receive the appointment of second lieutenant, which is the highest officer without a commission. Jones. "Any student who is twenty-one years old can make application

"Merely a question of corset!" laughed Helen. "I was fitted in a C/B A-LA-SPIRITE model and it gave me a slender, youthful figure. It fit perfectly, so my clothes just had to. I am proud of my looks, and i owe it all to my splendid corset and to the expert corstiere at Weawers."
This week we have a special Display of C/B models in our window and Corset Department sent direct from the C/B Factory. Come in and let us tell you about these different models.
