When Cornhusker Field Company, practices for Slimmer meats Contest
It's news when practicability is
stressed over theory in a univer
sity course, and the 40 members
of the Cornhusker Field Company
are making news every Saturday
morning as they apply what they
learn in the class room on the
actual field.
Applying rules of scouting, pa
trolling, defense and other ma
neuvers taught in the military sci
ence course, the company travels
in trucks, furnished by the field
artillery, to the "wide-open places"
usually Pioneers park.
Founded by Lt. Col. Ayotte,
formerly a member of the ROTC
instructional staff, the organiza
tion is now sponsored by Capt.
Lee Chatfield. Frank Protzman
is captain and William Aarni, sec
ond in command. Senior officers
act as platoon leaders.
Members mostly from infantry.
Membership consists mostly of
infantry men. However, there are

lower limits, nothing approaching
a formal endorsement is expected
until at least another million men
have been brought under arms.
In the forefront in urging a more
intelligent policy toward college
registrants next year have been
the national educational associa
tions. Today they are strongly op
posed to lowering the age limits.
Strong proponents.
However, if a movement for
draft changes does gather momen
tum, the educational associations
in Washington will be strong pro
ponents of the qualifying clause
giving draftees a choice of their
year of service. It is believed in
education circles that this would
go a long way in preventing the
disruption of university classes.
Meanwhile, the consensus of
opinion among the best informed
draft observers here is that
changes are at least three or four
months away. It is believed, more
over, that such changes as are
made will depend largely upon in
ternational developments. One
body of opinion feels that no real
changes will be made unless the
nation undertakes actual military
participation in the present con
flict. Then the first step, these sources
believe, will be an immediate low-
artillery students in the company.
When the company was first
founded, a field artillery unit, the
Cornhusker Battery, which was
performing the same type of ma
neuvers was in existence, but was
short of men.
The battery was dropped and
many of its members moved over
ering of selective service to the
18 year old level.
Meanwhile, two persistent ru
mors continue to circulate in the
nation's capital.
One is that the war department
is making purchases for a poten
tial standing army of about 4,500,
000 men. The second, hinted last
week by three congressmen, is
that selective service trainees now
in service will not return to pri
vate life at the end of the basic
one year period. This is based on
the assumption that congress will
be asked soon to declare a full
emergency, thus keeping all
drafted men in service "for the
duration."
Neither report has been denied
officially, adding to the uncer
tainty of the entire selective serv
ice picture.

which Stalin can manipulate as
he pleases. On the one hand is
the Communist Internationale,
whose intent is world revolution;
on the other hand is the Soviet
state department which for strate
gic purposes treats with the capi
talist powers and renounces all in
tentions of supporting revolutions
abroad.
Both survive on same funds.
The two faced nature of this
system, Ginsburg explained, is
shown by the fact that both di
visions of the foreign office are
supported by the same money, and
the leadership of both lies in the
same man.

to the newly organized field com
pany. Rifles and other equipment are
furnished by the military depart
ment. The department also lends
the company machine guns and a
few new guns on special ma
neuvers. Practicing from 9 a. m. to about
11 every Saturday morning, the
company employs ten men as the
enemy who, equipped with blanks,
force various maneuvers.
"All old and new men are urged
to attend the next meeting of the
company Saturday morning,"
Protzman said. Meeting at 9 a. m.
at Nebraska hall, the company
will move out to Pioneers park
for the regular outdoor problems.

The biggest event planned for
the Union summer recreation pro
gram is the all university men's
steak fry at Pioneers park Thurs
