Fund For Students Pays Two Million Iin Loans To Dcate Established in 1897 by University Alumni and other persons interested in assisting needy students, the Stu- dent Loan Fund has furnished loans totalling over $2,115,000 during its existence. To borrow money from this fund it is necessary for students to file an application with the Committee on Student Loans, stating such facts as the amount of money desired, per- sonal history and estimated yearly budgets. A low rate of interest is . ,U_ _ _ _ - I Corps supplements regular military academies and officer training schoolsI in maintaining the supply of trained Army officers. Since its establishment on campus in 1919, the ROTC has grown to a size of more than 1,200 cadets. A cadet who starts his ROTC training in his freshmen year and completes the full eight term course - the first four in the basic course and the second four in the advanced course - re- ceives a second lieutenant'scommis- sion in the Officers' Reserve Corps.' The Department of Military Sci- ence and Tactics trains units in In- fantry, Ordnance, Signal Corps, Corps of Engineers, Medical Corps and the newly established Quartermaster Corps. Academic credit is given for ROTC work and the drill is credited for the same number of hours in the new physical hardening program (PEM). Students in the Advanced Corps are deferred until graduation, but they are required to enroll in the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps. A recent statement by Secretary of War Stimson said that all men who are 20 years old and enlisted in, the Army Reserve program will "probab- ly" be called around the first of the year. However, Col. William A. Ganoe, commander of the ROTC unit here. said that he "doubts if the Army will take anyone into active service who is in the advanced corps of the ROTC. Therefore," he said, "a cadet in the basic corps who is of such high standards that he is likely to get into the advanced corps will probably also be permitted to remain in school." There is no limit on the number of men than can be taken into the basic training corps of the ROTC. Every freshman who wants to and can pass the physical examination will be tak- en into the unit. Extra officers are expected to help train cadets enrolled in the Medical, Signal and Quartermaster Corps. As far as possible, however, cadet offi- cers will train the cadets this year.
