The dally drill, takes placo .on tho athletic field now In stead of Twelfth street, where it was. previously held. Because of tho in crease of the extra company, made this.' year, the athletic fiold is" proving somewhat small for cadet use, espe cially so during the parados.

Regimental drill will be the feature of tho work of tho cadets next spring.
