STUDY TO COVER 4 YEARS
A plan by which college men may win
commissions as ensigns In a big naval
reservo force which the Navy Depart
ment expects to develop is being worked
ont by Assistant Secretary of the Navv
Roosevelt, according to word received
from Washington.
TCvcry college and university in the
country will be ghen nn opportunity to
ro-opernte with the Navy Department
along this line. If this plan should he
adopted, a four-year course in nautical
subjects, nugmented bv several months
nf post-graduate work nt the Nnnl
Academy, will be offered students all
over the couutry.
No definite information from Wuh
Ington has been received at either the
University of Pcmisylvaia or Sw.irth
more College, nnd official nt eni-li insti
tution refused to discuss tentative plans
on the subject this morning.
According (o the Washington state
ment there arc now 300,000 officers and
men in the nnol reserve force, and it
was said that every effort would be
made to make one-half of this strength
permanent, with inducements of enroll
ment so attractive that the he-t class of
young men would be drawn into it.
The proposed plan is to enroll college
freshmen who desire to take the rou.r-o
for a period of four years During the
first year the department would recom
mend n course of studv along naval
lines in connection with the regular col
lege curriculum, including physical
training. This work would be tinder
the supervision of the college authori
ties nnd the commandant of the naval
district. At the end of this term tin
students would go to a naval training
camp for n period of about six weeks for
practical instruction, during whiih time
they would be given subsistence ami
nominal pay.
During the second and third years a
higher course of naval studies would be
pursued, nnd nt the end of the third
year the embryo officers would he taken
aboard warships for a cruise Of six or
eight weeks' duration, desirably in for
cing waters, so that the students might
be given the opportunity to study the
navies of other nations.
After graduation a two months' course
of study at the Naval Academy along
general lines would be followed out, the
government paying all expenses and sal
ary. After commission the men would
be" returned to civil life, under no obli
gations to the government, except u
pledge to serve as officers in event of n
national emergency and to keep in touch
with naval developments.
