FIVE HUNDRED OFFER SERVICES IN CASE OF STRIKE ON RAILROADS

ENGINEERING SCHOOL FORMS SEPERATE UNIT

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

With over five hundred members of the University already signed up for service on the railroads in case of a strike, registration of volunteers will continue this afternoon, when the emergency committee in charge of the arrangements in the University will hold office hours in the Lampoon Building from two until four o'clock. All undergraduates interested in working as firemen, conductors or brakemen should a strike be called may obtain information regarding release from college obligations and other details there.

Arrangements have been made with the railroads for several one hour classes for instructing the men in the fundamentals of the duties which they may be called upon to perform to be held in Cambridge, the first of which will be tomorrow night. Announcement of the division of the men into classes for this instruction will be made in tomorrow's CRIMSON.

Members of the Engineering School, backed by Dean H. J. Hughes '94, have organized a separate unit to serve in case of strike. Many of these men will have had practical experience in the work, so that they will serve independently of the University volunteers. Students in the Engineering School who wish to join the unit should sign up in the blue books in the Engineering School Library in Pierce Hall. In doing so they should give previous experience, if any.
