Artillery Unit for Princeton

A field artillery unit of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps, similar to that at Yale is to be established at Princeton by the War Department.

There will be an elementary and an advanced course. Those who took the artillery training during the first term will now take the advanced instruction. The introductory course will be open to all students except Freshmen. These courses will be elective and are to continue for the rest of the year.

The course will consist of class work, practice with four British 75's and other pieces, and training in horsemanship. A great number of guns, 90 horses, 16 non-commissioned officers and 36 privates will be detailed by the Government for each unit of 200 men recruited in the Princeton Unit. The ultimate object is to form a battalion. Major J. E. McMahon, former instructor at West Point and Camp Taylor will be Commandant of the Unit.
