FRESHMEN TAKING DRILL
NOT EXEMPTFROM GIM
Men in Companies Will Be Detailed
for Physical Work Held
Twice a Week
"There seems to be some misunder-
standing with regard to freshman
gymnasium classes," stated Dr. May.
"Compulsory freshman gymnasium
classes will be held as usual, and
freshmen of the various companies
will be detailed for work in the gym-
nasium, two periods weekly, begin-
ning the first Monday in November.
Otherwise the work in physical train-
ing will be carried on outdoors as
long as the weather permits, after
which it will be transferred to the
gymnasium."
"It is very important that members
of all the companies, both upperclass-
men and freshmen, secure lockers in
the gymnasium and make appoint-
;ments for physical examination at the
earliest possible time. The plan as
arranged is an intensive one, and nec-
essarily needs the enthusiastic co-
operation of everyone, in order that
officers of the highest physical type
may be developed."
