Educators Study Plans 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 Edmund C. Day, Cornell; O. C Carmichael, Vanderbilt; James B. Conant, Harvard; Clarence A Dykstra, Wisconsin; F. D.

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. Second year advanced ROTf! students will remain in school un til graduation in Mav. If tha (See ROTC STATUS, Page 6.) 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.
