Michigan Military Men
By The Sarge

MEN WANTED!

Lieut. Alfred Owens, graduate of
the University and honor ROTC stu-
dent, recently received his commis-
sion as second lieutenant in the regu-'
lar Army.
Having undergone intensive train-
ing in the Army since his graduation
last spring, Lieut. Owens' commission
dates from Oct. 5. Owens was selected
from the campus ROTC unit to be
trained for the regular Army. While
on campus, he was very active, serv-
ing as business manager of the 'En-
sian, was a member of Sphinx, served
as president of the Infantry Officers
Club, and was a member of the Sigma
Chi fraternity. Owens graduated with
the degrees of A. B. and M. Ba.
Selected for special honors in the
unit, Lieut. Owens was the second
honor student from the campus post
in the past 15 years to receive such a
commission.
The job of seeing that the men at
the Rapid City, S. D. Army air base

are 'fit to fight' was turned over re-
cently to Lieut. John Bronson of
Dearborn, a graduate of the Univers-
ity.
Physical training is nothing new to
Lieut. Bronson. After his graduation
from the University in 1930, Bronson
became assistant trainer for Univers-
ity athletic teams. He also taught
physical education courses at the Un-
iversity, and during the summer
months was director of playgrounds
in various cities in Michigan.
Lieut. Bronson will continue his
athletic work by getting men into
shape for combat in the air and on
the ground.
Chester F. Chamberlain of Detroit,
who attended the University, was
graduated last week from the U.S.
Naval Air Station at Pensacola, Fla.,
winning the coveted golden Navy
wings.
Chamberlain was commissioned as
an ensign in the United States Naval
Reserve.
