GENERAL WOOD URGES MEN TO STAY AT UNIVERSITY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A. Lawrence Lowell, Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass.

I advise Harvard students continue their present University work and military training until such a time as the plans for the mobilization of citizen forces are promulgated. To leave now is in every way Inadvisable and can serve no useful purpose. No university or college I know of is putting in more hours than Harvard in purely military work, and the students cannot do better than take advantage of the opportunities you are now offering them to prepare for service.   LEONARD WOOD.
