PENN STATE CADETS AT
SUMMER MILITARY CAMP
The Penn State men who attended
the R. o. T. C\ camp this summer have
Uen commended very highly for tbo
extremely creditable work that they
accomplished at Camp Devons. A con
tingent ir..m this institution has at
tended every camp for students since
the inception of Iho idea in 1.013 and
tiiis year the Penn State group excell
ed all previous records. The repre
sentation was not as large ns was des
ired only nineteen men attending, but
'despite the small number of students,.
IVmi Stale yielded to no institution of
the sixty-three schools and colleges of
lotirtccti dit'iYrent states represented 1
there, in the quality of their work, their !
zeal and enthusiasm. The larger part
of the students Were assigned to the
Fourth Company - commanded’ by our
prof.-ssor of Military Science ami Tac
tics. .Major M. R. Welty. This comp
any was given the highest elfirioncy
rating by both the War Department
and vamp authorities. The zeal and
hearty cooperation of the men. their
Spirit of team play which was felt
throughout the entire company, was
responsible for this excellent rating.
Penn State was also well represented in
ail the athletic contests hold during Iho
l>rogn-ss of the camp.
The Camp D.-vons R. O. T. C. camp
was a great success and- Penn State
students wrote her name high on the
roll of home*. Judging l>y reports
brought back by the student soldiers
the attendance at next year’s camp will
be much larger..
Kvery .Junior is urged lo join the
It. o. T. C. The benefit derived from
it. according to the Military Depart
ment. is of such a nature as lo be of
the value to the student and
to his country in ease of ever-impend
ing war. 1.t.. Colonel Cotuly urges
thal evn*y Penn State graduate not
only be prepared ill the course of study
that he has pursued but also In the
military obligations that every man will
lie compelled to assume in rase of con
flict.

the leading architects. Only tentative
plans have been decided on. but in
teresting features of* tho new building
are included in these.
Tiie memorial feature will probably
take tiie form of a central courTor hall
with bronze paneled walls whore tiie
names of those who made the supreme
sacrifice will lie engraved.
Tiie present clubhouse at IS Gratn
ore.v Park lias Jong been unsuited for
entertaining ihe hundreds of officers
who annually come to Now York. Dur
ing the war members found it very in
adequate. Naval ollicers of this and
the other allied countries were enter
tained at tiie Now York Yacht Club,
but Army ollicers in New York during
those trying days found hotels over
crowded and themselves without a
home to which they could go for suit
able accommodations.
Since tiie war the need hat? been oven
more emphasized. While enlisted men
have canteens, huts and clubhouses,
the ollicers have boon without a place
to go for meals, or lodgings, except
the very expensive hotels. The mod
erate pay of our military loaders lias
made the cost of stopping at those
liosteJries almost prohibitive.
In the new clubhouse there wili ho
at least -100 bedrooms. A large dor
mitory furnished with cots will also
