The campaign will be concentrat- ed in December and January in or-t der to influence this legislation. Fifteen thousand signatures by January first is the slogan for the first part of the fight. Cite Objections. Military drill is a violation of academic freedom. R.O.T.C. courses arc not under the administration of the college but of the war depart- r'ent. They often are a prerequi- site to graduation. This amounts to a strangle hold on student opin- ion by the military authorities. Military drill is an attempt to train students in the attitude of unquestioning obedience which war demands. It seeks to idealize war, and to inculcate among students the mental attitude which makes war possible. Weyl Cites Student Opinion. The campaign is being organized by the Intercollegiate S t u d e n t, council, a student organization of some one hundred college groups. Nathaniel Weyl, Columbia '31, who is the chairman of the committee conducting the flight announced "This is the first tirne that stu- dent opinion throughout the coun- try has decided to mobilize itself, and to make its influence felt. For a long time students suffering un- cier the incubus of military drill have waged lone fights for its aboli- tUon. .During this last year the nurober of protests in individual colleges has been multiplied. Vigor- ous fights were conducted in Cor- re', North Carolina (where corn- pu,ry drill was abolished by the students), in Iowa Siate where two thousand students who had taken the course and were sick of it peti- tioned the Governor for t abol- tion, and in twelve other colleges."

Eight sororities and fraternities have contributed money this year,* feeling that by so doing the dona- tions could be put to better use than if given by individual mem- bers. Nine fraternities and soror- ities are outfitting children this year. Miss Owen stated that, if any other organizations wish to contri- bute to the fund, the money should be sent in as soon a.s possible. New York has between 21,000 and 23,000 lawyers.
