For Colleges
Committee Meets to Pick
Schools to Be Utilized
In Army, Navy Program
(Special to the Daily Nebraskan
from OWI.)
The first of several meetings to
select colleges to be utilized under
the joint Army-Navy plan and lay
down the policies and regulations
under which thousands of selectees
will be trained as specialists was
held in Washington last week by
a committee of leading educators
appointed by the war manpower
commission.
The committee, meeting under
the chairmanship of Owen D,
Young, of the General Electric
company, took no action at its
first session but is expected to
make its recommendations public
sometime before Feb. 1, when the
plan is scheduled to go into oper
atlon on a "broad, democratic
basis."
War Manpower Chief Paul V.
McNutt, who acts with the advice
of the Secretaries of War and
Navy, said in announcing the com
position of the committee:
Provide Counsel.
"The new committee now meet
ing will provide invaluable coun
sel not only in developing these
rules and regulations but also in
determining policies to insure ade
quately trained specialists for war
industries and essential civilian ac
tivities. Their assistance in work'
ing out procedures and regulations
whereby institutions of higher ed
ucation will be able to provide a
flow of civilian specialists will be
and all-important part of the work
of this committee."
The committee is made up of
the following college presidents

Bewildered ERC students
officially advised yesterday by the
aevenm service command of the
War department that they are re
quired to continue their education
until called to active duty, thus
answering the students question
"Should we register for next sem.
ester?"
The Seventh Service Command
informed Dean T. J. Thomns
that the status of junior and sen
ior advanced ROTC cadets in the
ERC has definitely been settled,
was indicated that some fresh
man and sophomore ERC studerts
will be called to active duty two
weeks after the beginning of next
semester, but this is still not offi
cial. Since the War department an
nounced their Army Specialized
Training program whereby they
would take over many U. S. col
leges, they have provided bits of
information to UN officials, much
or wnicn can not be released at
the present time.

Clark Urges
Bizad Student
s
Registration
Dean John D. Clark of Bizad
college yesterday issued a state
ment to all students of the college
of business administration urging
students to plan their courses for
next semester and begin register
ing.
"I am not able to assure any
individual student that if he con
tinues his college work into the
second semester he will actually
improve his position when called
into service. But among you who
do follow this plan there will be
many who will find that for this
reason they have attained a posi
tion in the army which otherwise
they could not have reached,"
stated the Dean.
In urging each student to weigh
both sides of the question thor
oughly, Dean Clark offered the
following three point plan:
1. Putting more men in ac
tive service is a difficult prob
lem, the army must always be
modifying its plans in this re
spect, and many if not most of
you will probably be able to
remain in college longer than
you now believe.
2. If you hope to secure your
selection for an officer candi
date training school you will
improve your chance very much
by every extra month of college
work. During the first war-year
80 percent of those picked as
officer candidates were college
men although they constitute
but a small fraction of the new
army.
3. The army has announced
plans to return about 200,000
men to college work after they
have completed their basic train
ing. There will be desperate
competition for selection for
this training which will be at
government expense, the soldier
being paid and sustained by the
army for a period which may
last as long as six semesters.
You wjll double your chance of
entering this fortunate group if
you maintain your status as a
college student up to the very
day you receive orders or your
notice of induction.
