WARREN WRITES ARTICLE IN NEW ALUMNUS Nazi Regime Initiates Friendship in Schools Prof. Shoenemann Says The most important change that 1 ho Nazi regime has wrought in German schools has been to make professor and student 'kameradsdraftlich'. At least that is what Dr. KricrJ erieh Schoenemann, visiting professor on German-American cul tural relations, thinks. In plain English, German pro-" feasors and students nave devel oped a new understanding of each other, and friendly personal rela tionships are rising in German classrooms under Mr. Hitler's reign. A second change in the educa tional system, brought about thru the National Socialist program, was the placing of great emphasis upon physical culture in German schools. The outcome of this pol icy became apparent to the world in the recent Olympic games. "I, as an educator, am espe cially proud of the proficiency that Germany has shown in all athletic fields," Dr. Schoenemann declared, "because her prowess is no mere matter of record break ing, but of national popularity of sports." A third innovation in the educa tional policy has resulted in a new conception of early Germanic tribes. Students in German schools are no longer taught that their an cestors were barbarians. ARMY BASICS LIKE E Sixteen Trucks, Four Guns Assigned to New Unit; 120 Frosh Enroll. Courses of instruction in the new field artillery unit offered by the military department on the Agri cultural college campus for the first time this year, are proving popular both with Ag and down town students.

Sophomores also have a large enrollment, and a record-breaking enrollment is expected, although definite figures are not yet avail able. The field artillery unit will be divided into four batteries, head quarters, A. B and C. Headquar ters and A batteries will meet Monday, B Tuesday and C Thurs day. Classroom and equipment for th unit will be located in a two- j story brick building now under .construction. Temporarily classes will meet in the plant industry and dairy industry buildings.
