MAJOR BELL GOES
TO UNIV. OF CHICAI
Captain Ahrends Assumes Charge Here
Many Changes Planned For
Spring Drill
Major 0 W. 8011, in compliance with
orders from tho War Depattment, has
left State College to take charge of the
organisation of a military department
at the University of Chicago. His work
at. Chicago will be to establish a mili
tary department along the same lines
as that at the University of Pennsylva
nia. The Rork will be elective to the
students for a year or so, but it is
hoped to advance the standard of the
work there until It complies with the
requirements of the Federal Reserve
Act There seems to be little likelihood
at present of there being any one ap—
pointed to take Major Bell's place at
Penn State and this semester's work
will bo In charge of Captain Almond's
assisted by Lieutenant Baehr and Ser
geant Allen.
A decided Innovation, which is to be
permanent hereafter, will be Intrduced
this semester by having a four hour
drill period for the Sophomores on
Thursday afternoons while the Fresh
men sections will each have ono two
hour period Regimental drill will in
all probability be held the last hour on
Monday afternoon at which time all
three sections have a drill period sched
uled Another feature will be that of
having the Sophomore companies In
charge of the Senior officers and the
Freshmen In charge of - the Juniors
This plan will give the Junior Lieu
tenant. practical experience in the I
handling of men
The advantage of having four hours
In succession of drill are readily ap
parent. A great amount of time will
be saved which wan taken up before by
roll-call and the taking out and putting
away of the-rifles Also, by having four
hours at a stretch, hikes, maneuvers,
and other work hitherto impossible
may be attempted. in fact, hiking, and
manoeuvering, entrenching, target
practice, and so forth, will form a
large part of this semester's work.
Target shooting from entrenched or se
creted positions will bo done and there
a possibility of hailing an elimina
tion contest in target practice towards
the end of the semester
Minor tactic., with the assistance of
the Signal Corps. will also be on the
program. It le hop - e - dlo have the Corps
equipped with a field radio outfit as well
an heliographs and imager lines by 2) ,
time spring drU) starts , The orders wh
&so tar cent from'':..ilege Wire-
Ins Station and thence by buzzer lines
to the various commanders. On the
whole, the military work next spring
promises to be very Interesting and
at the name time very instructive.
PROHIBITION LEAGUE
STARTS STUDY CLASS
The Prohibition League inaugurated
study class work at a recent meeting.
Each week a separate phase of the 11q
our problem will be taken up and then
studied by the members of the league
Richardson'a "Liquor Problem" will be
used, and Professor 1 L rooter, of the
Romance Language Department will
act as instructor.
A movement has boon started to af
filiate the other student organizations
of the college with the Prohibition
League. In all of the largo Woatorn
colleges, the numerous student organi
sations co-operate with the Prohibi
tion Leagues, and a condition of this
kind will be brought about here If It
in possible "An effort la , also being

VENUS
14:P PENCIL
No matter what course you're taking
you need this famous pencil!
I Because of the superb .
ny of material and workman
ship, VENUS is admittedly
the finest pencil It is possible
to make.
If you like a thick soft limd that
marks so that you can read
the writing half way across the room
choose the sak degrees 613-58-08
For short hand notes or easy writing I
38-2 B—B (medium soft) are popular
For sketching, general writ
ing purposes, etc. FIB —F—H
—2ll (medium) will prove
desirable.
For drafting, a medium hard .-
pencil gives the best results
and you'll like 3H-4H-5H— 4
•
6H.
For very thin, narrow line, for ex
tremely accurate graphical charts, maps
details, etc, 7H-BH-9H are available.
Look for the distincuv ewater
mark finish on each of the 17 black do
grees and hard and medium copying
Your professors will confirm those state
ments as to merits of VENUS pencils
