Camp Oread Surpasses Coast Artillery School Says Former K. U. Mar
W. S. McClintock Tells of Experiences at Fort Monroe, $ _{4} $
Virginia
W. S. McClintock, one of the K. U.
men transferred to coast artillery training school at Fort Morroe, Va,
has written the following letter to Lieutenant Uher, in the S. A. T. C.
here:
"The coast artillery contingent arrived in good shape, but we arrived at the wrong time. Nobody knows at present what is to be done with us.
"The more I see of this camp and others, the more I realize that K. U has a model one. We live in tents on the beach and it is evergreen. We are called upon to tell us that this was a warm place, but he was mistaken. It is cold and wet.
Dean F. J. Kelly's Plan For Training Criticized
My dear Dr. Kelly;
As an individual, I wish to call a few things before you in an attempt to broaden a single idea of yours—an idea that you and those who are as far sighted as you possess that it is logical at this time to establish a sort of Compulsory Vocational Training of a rather military nature in order that this nation might develop more radially than otherwise.
First: Are you fostering a plan so Un-American like that would place or hold in military service men and women between the ages of 18 and 22 in time of peace—men and women who prefer something else?
Second. Do you believe that the system under which our colleges and universities have always operated has become so purposeless in the past few days that it should now be supplanted by this "pipe-dream" of yours?
Third: Are not the achievements of America within the past twenty months sufficient to prove our fundamentalism superior to none of other nations?
Now, Dr. Kelly, perhaps on paper you are able to figure out very neatly how easyily men can drill several hours a day and still gain as much as they did when they had no military authorities, no room orderlies, no inspection of arms, bunks and corpses; no sergeants did anything and turn off the lights by which they studied. But you are wrong, woefully wrong.
The war is won. The idea of freedom was ever before us, and them who fought so gallantly hand-to-hand against those who believe in doctrines, not wholly unlike the one you are attempting to spring on us at this time.
Are you attempting to curtail the inherited freedom that we possess and which we defended so gloriously in this war?
Very sincerely yours,
Anthony Lewis Oswald.

Basket Ball Fans Are Taking Account Of Possible Material
Practice Will Begin Soon Jc
Military Authorities Excuse Players
Varsity basket ball practice will begin the early part of this week, providing the men can obtain military release from 4:30 to 6 each evening for the workouts.
It is difficult to predict what sort of a team Coach W. O. Hamilton will be able to put on the floor this season, Matthews, center and Bunn, who alternated at forward and guard, are the only members here from last year's squand and will form the lous about how it will be built. But if the returns from Camp Grant in time to get into the game will fill a guard position.
Keckley a forward is the only man from last year's frush team who will be out for the Varsity this year. But there is a great abundance of material from high school stars of last year who will be eligible. Among them, Gardner of Arkansas City, Dotson of Newton, Glenn of Sedan, and Turner of Kansas City Polytechnic appear to be the most promising.
