Reserve Groups Have Countless Places for Draft-conscious Men

Harvard's Army, Navy, and Air Force ROTC expect to sign up large numbers of the entering freshman class. The three units could take approximately 300 new men.

For the most part, the ROTC progress will permit an enlistee to finish college but may then take him into some branch of the armed forces as an officer.

Unit size depends on the quality of the applicants, but the Air Force had 90 in the Class of '54 and would have the facilities for even more now. The Army unit is hoping to get between 100 and 125. Student and faculty pressure last February led this group to take in 100 more men because of the increasingly confusing draft picture. That resulted in about 150 Army men in the whole class.

The Navy can take in about 75 freshmen, already having 45 men entering on Navy scholarships.
