PROTEST DRILL
Sophomore at Hawaiian Uni
versity Denounce R. O. T.
C. a Militaristic
CAMPAIGN IS VEHEMENT
(New Student Service)
Protests againit military drill burst
explosively at far removed universi
ties In past weeks at semi-Oriental,
cosmopolitan University of Hawaii
and rural, corn-belt, American Uni
versity of Indiana. Both protests
promise to develop Into vehement
campaigns, ending in the Inevitable
referendum.
Ka Leo O Hawaii, "The Voice of
Hawaii," like many other colegre
sheets, gives over one issue to the
sophomores. On the morning of
February 18 this sophomore issue ap
peared with a daring denunciation of
the R. O. T, C. that almost stunned
the student body and precipitated ex
cited arguments in Chinese, Korean,
Japanese, Portugese and English.
Covering almost the entire front
page the vitrolic sophomore assault
was headed a Mighty Dramatic Farce.
The manifesto said in part:
While Europe is moving with slow
but definite steps toward peace, as
based on the Locarno Pacts, America
is recruiting her citizency to arms,
becoming wholly obvious to her great
trust to the world. It is to be re
gretted that America is to some ex
tent adopting the German theory of
preparedness which the world de
nounced about ten years ago "
On the second page the three soph
omore boys called for a new brand
of teachers to supersede the present
regime with its mistaken efforts to
"manufacture walking encyclope
dias". College, they declare is the
"place to cultivate thinking, not a
place for the unnecessary cramming
of insignificant details."
It is still impossible to predict what
turns the Hawaii uproar will take.
Frances M. Fox, "New Student" cor
respondent, reports that "three things
at least are certain: First that there
is a decided division of opinion pay
aria con with no majority evident on
one side or the other; second, that
the students are interested in the
problem, in most cases more interest
ed than informed; third, the division
is not along racial lines." Protest
ants and defenders of the R. 0. T. C.
are found in all groups represented
en the campus.
President Arthur L. Dean, of the
University is not alarmed. To him
it is just a bit of sophomore effer
vescence. He takes exception, how
ever, with their theory that the War
Department is forcing militarism up
on the colleges. The shoe is really
on the other foot, he explains. The
college presidents are all for compul
sory training. At the recent meet
ing of the presidents of land grant
colleges they were almost unanimous
ly in this plan for Congress and the
War Department to augment the col
lege corps.
At the University of Indiana, "The
Vagabond," literary magazine start
ed a campaign against Compulsory
drill. An optional military Drill
League was formed with Charles F,
Roed, '28, at its head. The friends
of forced drill Immediately countered
with a Student Defense League. A
petition affirming the necessity of
the continuance of the local unit as
an essential detail of the national
policy, has already 400 signatures,
the leaders assert.
Plans are being worked out to or
iranize a debate between the two
clubs at some future date.
Coincident with the Indiana and
Hawaii incidents were many student
editorials for and against drill in
schools where it is compulsory. A
University of Washington Daily Cur
icula "Critic Trials", brought
down the wrath of drill masters. It
described Military Science and Tac
tics as "The most absolutely useless
and discreditable cuurae in the Uni
vcrsity. Builds the young men up,
nit. Teaches them discipline, nit,
Makes good citizens of the boys, like
so much "
The R. 0. T. C. issue has become
of such general interest, declared
the California Tech, California of
Institute of Technology, "that it can
no longer be ignored." The Tech
will take no sides in the dispute but
opens its columns for contributions,
"free from malice or invective."
The Knox Student declares that at
Knox College, Illinois, where drill is
elective, over fifty per cent of the
men take it. "We favor Military
training and the R. 0. T. C, we also
favor peace, but the idea of abolish
ing military training as a means of
securing it seems illogical and smacks
too much of pacifism."

SPRING GRID Um
BEGIN SORIQUAGE
Coach Bearg Point Out Faults,
Defensive and Offensivei
Shifts Teams
The spring grid men had a good
stiff practice yesterday, scrimmaging
for quite a time. The coaches point
ed out to each man his faults, both
on offense and defense. .The play
ers were shifted around a lot, a great
number of men playing with the of
fensive team.
The outstanding player of yester
days practice was Zuver, playing at
defensive center. Ho was on the
Varsity squad laBt fall, but was hand
icapped in the fact that Hutchison
and Wostoupal Were available for
the pivot position. He broke through
on nearly .every play yesterday and
invariably nailed the runner if he
came near Iiim. Afterwards he wm
shifted to tackle, but seemed a little
unfamiliar with the position, and did
no$ get through as many times.
Holmes was playing center the great
er portion of the time for the offen
sive team. The backficld men were
shifted around and Kahler and Lin-
dell both showed up well. Lindell
piloted the team after relieving Bron
son. Lawson, Lec and Holm looked
good at ends, Lucas did well in the
tackle position, while Staads and
Conrad made nice holes in the cen
ter of the line.
The coaches are finding a little dif
ficulty in teaching the backs to keep
going at full speed while side-stepping
or pivoting. This has been a
fault with some of the Varsity men,
also. Bronson seems to have the best
drive in this particular. Lee also
did well at running through the
field, though his natural position is at
end.
If plans are followed out, a regu
lar game will be played between
members of the squad, divided up in
to two part. According to schedule,
this game will be played next week
sometime. It will add a little en
joyment to spring practice, and will
also give the coaches an opportunity
to get a better line on some of the
gridiron aspirants.
