It lists no less than 10 different kinds of war activities that were car- ried on during the present semester, but some of these will not be open next year. First on the list is the officers' re- serve corps, offering two hours credit a semester for a period of two or four years. "On the completion of this course, the student will be eligible for commission in the officers' reserve corps," states the pamphlet. Enlisted Engineers? Reserve The enlisted engineers' reserve is listed as open to students who are candidates for degrees in engineering and architecture and are of draft age. To enter this corps, the student must be a citizen, or have taken out his first papers. Scholarship, personal- ity, physique, and efficiency are men- tioned as determining the fitness of candidates. Naval Reserve Any student over 18 years of age may enlist in' the naval reserve force, for which there are no scholarship requirements. It is stated that the student enlisting will not be called except in the case of "extreme emer- gency." Sanitary Engineering Opportunity to serve the govern- ment in a special way is offered by the establishment of an extensive course in sanitary engineering at the request of the medical department of the army. The course is open to sen- iors in civil and chemical engineer- ing and also to students of other schools who have had the necessary foundation in mathematics, mechan- ics, and chemistry. All men enlisting during this year have been appointed sergeants in the sanitary engineering corps. The characteristics of modern guns; and projectiles and the study of prob- lem relating to the flight of shells is a course listed as Mathematics 74. Radio Communication Under orders from the chief signal officer of the army, a course has been7 established in radio communication and signal work. Men entering this work may enroll in the signal en-I listed reserve corps and take up works with the'signal corps of the army aft-t er graduation. Gas-engine practice and navigation are two other courses in which the1 college student may fit himself for1 service to the country. From a reading of the "Nationala Service" pamphlet, it should be evi-3 dent to the prospective college student6 that it is not necessary to stay out ofI college in order to be of use to thet nation in time of war. IL A. C. RECEIVES 500 DRAFTED MEN FOR TECHNICAL TRAINING Michigan Agricultural college last Wednesday received 500 drafted ment who have been detailed by the wara department to receive eight weeks ofk intensive training in auto truck re-r pair work for'the army, according to1 advices just received here.Thepro-e gram mapped out for the 500 mechan- ics is fully as rigorous as that in force in other branches of the nation-1 al army.e For eight hours daily they will de- vote themselves to the study of theI chassis and engine repair work, ig- nition and lighting, carburetion, forgeF and weldings, road troubles and trac-l tors. Another hour will be given to setting up exercises, and two hours to the acquirement of the fundament-l als of military drill. Instruction off the men in the technical subjects will be conducted in the shops and labora- tories of the college by members oft the engineering faculty. As far as M. A. C. itself is concern-I ed, it is handling the men largely asx it would ordinary students. The' 500 new arrivals do not fully offset theI number of male students the collegez has lost since .hostilities commenced.f SPIES' TREACHEROUSLY SILENCE BITISH GUNS GERMANS WEAR UNIFORMS STOL- EN FROM DEAD ENGLISH- MEN London, May 18. - German spies 'ben a continual source of annoyance throughout the recent British retire- ments in France. Many of these spies have been detected in British uniforms, presumably stolen from bodies of"the slain. A British officer in a letter to the Daily Express, tells of an encounter with two such spies. "I had been orderedto take up a position with the two 'guns of my sec- tion as our infantry were being forc- ed back,' 'he says. "I was on a crest just in front of my guns ready and waiting to open fire and observe the rounds, but the specified time had not arrived. ""Snappy New" d I Calkins Drug Co.

PORTO RICO SEIZES BONDS DE- POSITED BY HUN AGENTS San Juan, Porto Rico, May 18.-Ap- proximately $100,000 worth of Panama Canal and Porto Rico bonds deposit- ed with the treasurer of Porto Rico by six German insurance companies formerly doing business in Porto Rico have been seized by the government and placed to the credit of the alien property custodian. -The bonds were required to guarantee the payment of risks to Porto Rico policy holders. Until recently the bulk of the insur- ance business of the island was writ- ten by German agents in German com- panies. M. B. Spelman, representing A. Mitchell Palmer, enemy property cus- todian, who has been in Porto Rico and the Virgin Islands for the past hree weeks, has found enemy property here valued at many hundred thous- ands of dollars which has either-been seized or reported to Washington for seizure. Should Not Abbreviate Addresses London, May 18.-The British pos- Two Signallers "On the right of me was the road along which a few minutes before I had managed to get my guns. It was packed with infantry, transport, guns, prisoners and stretcher bearers struggling along with wounded. Some- thing or other called my attention to two signallers striving to lay out a wire from the road towards my ob- servation post. I could hear a gibe made to them, some witticism which caused a laugh. Then some one else's guns to the left opened fire. In a few seconds I picked up the target, a blue- grey shadow advancing in apparent silence over the top of a crest 2,000 yards away. "I gave the order to join in the chorus of guns. The rounds were bursting beautifully, and I picked. up the range quickly and well, but I no- ticed Boche shells beginning to fall on and about the road, bursting with marvellous precision. Shell Bursts I glanced behind at my guns, just as a shell burst 100 yards in rear of them and another 100 yards in front- a beautiful "bracket," positively un- canny, as the guns were In a splen- did position and certainly could not be seen. "I knew what that bracket meant, and longed to give the take-cover, or- der to my gunners, but only for one moment. Our job was to carry on. So we fired away as rapidly as we could, for, after all, we do not often have the luck to shoot at moving masses of Roches. Guns Silenced "A few minutes later I received the message: "Both guns out of action, sir." I gazed round with a jerk, and there below. me, sure enough, both guns were 'knocked out. "The Boches had begun another de- liberate shoot at the other guns, and I could see at a glance he was some- how observing his rounds, and cor- recting them for line and range, and yet there were no Hun airplanes up aloft to do it. A marvellous mystery! I determined to go to my guns and do my best to get them into action again, so off I moved, dodging around the ancient shell-holes of 1916, jump- ing across old German trenches. Telephone Buzzer "I had hardly gone 20 yards when I heard a buzz quite close, the buzz of a field telephone buzzer. I came up behind two men in khaki with the fa- miliar blue-and-white band of the British signalling corps on their arms, evidently the men I had seen before, one gazing out towards the batteries on the left, the other buzzing. Quiet- ly I approached. Then I grasped the situation. With a running jump I landed3 plump on the instrument, yelled, and hit out with one first under one jaw and another on the back of a square, hard head. "Gott im Himmel!,,"' "'Gott im Himmel!' came from the hard headed man and a guttural groan from the other whose jaw I had hit, and who lay apparently stunned. "Then in a moment I was kicked in the back, which sent me reeling. "I picked myself up, to find bothI Boches tearing away towards the road. They had some yards' start, but1 I gave chase. One stumbled and fell. I made a rush, and, before he could rise, kicked as I never had kicked be- fore-a regular, proper punt. That Men's Furnishings D. E. Grennan The Custom Tailor 606 E.

ENGINEERNQ COLLEGE DROPS PLAN TO EXTEND SESSION Although final action has not been taken in regard to the 12-weeks' sum- mer session for the engineering col- lege, unofficial reports indicate that the project has been dropped. It was planned to increase the length of the summer courses in the college to 12 weeks instead of eight. It would have been possible to graduate in three years under this plan, mak- ing it possible to turn out engineers much faster for war work. A canvass of engineering students was taken in order to determine how many would attend such a session if it were held. One hundred and forty- two students replied that they wouldt stay for either an eight or 12-weeks' session, 23 saying that only the lengthened term would keep them in Ann Arbor. Those who for different reasons could not attend summer courses of any kind numbered 514. Realize for yourse pleasure of Home C Food. Prices Reaso Service Paramount. TRUBE' 218 S.
