Suspension of alt R. O. T. C. mil

area until after congressional ac

by Col. J. O. Steger, adjutant gen

A telegram from Omaha was re

The order was made hy the war
department In Washington. Su

over the country has been ordered
until congress takes action on the
appropriations bill.
The reason for the action taken
by the war department, according
to Col. W. H. Oury, head of the
department of military science, is
that camp periods will extend into
the next fiscal year, although
starting: in the present one. Con
seouentlv, the camps must be post

"Suspension of R. O. T. C. camps

congress takes action soon and if
the turn of legislation is favorable,
the ramps undoubtedly will be re
stored this summer."

Industrial Staff Portrays
Conditions Under Which
Factory Girls Work.
A clever play written by the
members of the Industrial staff of
the Y. W. C. A. was the feature of
Vespers Tuesday afternoon. The
purpose of this original production
was to show the undesirable condi
tions in which girls are forced to
work in order to support them
selves and sometimes their fam
ilies. The epilogue of the play
gave the jHrls an idea as to how
they could help to remedy the sit
uation by purchasing hosiery
which is on the "white list."
The members of the staff who
appeared in the play were Alma
Holbein, E. Bash Perkins, Louise
Wallace, Elolse Dadder, Mary Cos
