YALE R.O.T.C. WILL HAVE CAMP

NEW HAVEN, CONN., MAY 3, 1918.--All members of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps at Yale, 17 years old or over who are not eligible for the Fourth Officers' Training Camp this spring because of age limitation, will be sent to Camp Jackson, Columbia, S. C., this summer for one month's training. The above cantonment, which possesses an artillery replacement depot, will afford excellent facilities for instructing the Yale Battery.

According to present plans, the camp will open about the first of August, and will be preceded by two or three weeks' intensive training in New Haven before the corps starts South. Recommendation by the authorities of the Yale Reserve Officers' Training Corps is a necessary requirement for all men desiring to enter the camp.

Lieutenant Colonel Robert M. Danford will be the commanding officer at Camp Jackson. The Colonel is the man to whose efforts the existence of the present high standing in the Yale unit is due, and will be one of the leading factors in the success of the Yale R. O. T. C. this summer.

Those men attending the camp at Columbia, S. C., will be classed as regular officer candidates and will be eligible for commissions upon completion of the three-year military course at New Haven.

The latter plan of study, which was adopted February 12, will be the only military course open to Yale students next year. All men enrolling in the R. O. T. C. at New Haven will have a special curriculum prescribed for the three years, and will be commissioned in the field artillery upon its completion.
