THE THIRD REG1MENT By LIEUTENANT-COLONEL MORRIS KRUCOPF, H. S. C. T the beginning of the present school year the Third Regiment was organized. It consisted of four companies and a band. However, due to the influx of recruits in Feb- ruary, its strength was augmented by the addi- tion of Company F, and the other companies were brought up to full strength. This year the Regimental Band has, for the first time, been of sufficient strength to Warrant the commissioning of a Second Lieutenant, con- sisting as it did of forty pieces. Although the Third Regiment of last year placed in every competition in which it entered, and Won the coveted red ribbons , this year's regiment is just as good, if not better than last year's. In the Honor Guard competition in .the Regiment, the first two companies were only three one-thousandths of a point apart. This points out very effectively the efficiency of the present Third Regiment. Other activities participated in by the cadets are the Ushering Staff, the Rifle Club and the Officers' Club. The Ushering Staff has given splendid service at various school functions, such ti -- .1-., . Til .. . . ... t. , it 'il5 'f'Qi'it' '.. NH- -1 'A' X t. . ..

A drive was instituted to have every cadet qualify as a member of the National Rifle Asso- ciation. Each company was allotted a day on the range, and many cadets have already quali- ned. The Officers' Club Was formed to promote comradeship among the oflicers and to promote the social functions of the Regiment. In this it has succeeded very well, a tea dance having already been given as well as the Annual Reg- imental Dance. All these activities would not have been pos- sible Without the able assistance of our many friends. The Third Regiment wishes to extend grateful thanks to Nlr. Charles Hart, principal of Eastern High School: to Mr. H. D. Shorts, Miss E. E. Drumm, and Mr. Frank Suter, of the Military Committee: and to Captain Thomas J. Holmes, the military instructor of the Third Regiment. . e A ff, Dr. Frank W.

HAWKINS, H. S. C. I-IE First Battalion of Eastern is very fortu- nate in having for its Captains, Frantz and Lee. Captain Frantz, the commander of A Company, will be striving to repeat the vic- tory scored last year in the Competitive Drill by Company A, and Captain Lee Will be Working just as hard to see that Company B wins. As the days pass by, I find myself regretting more and more the fact that very soon I shall have to leave the men with whom I have been in contact. Every cadet has done his very best to Win the various drills during the year, and every cadet should take a personal pride in this even though his company may not Win. At this time I want to thank the officers and non-coms for their splendid cooperation and Wish them the best of luck. When this year is over, I feel confident that the members of the FIRST BATTALION will feel satisfied that they have done their work well. Sixty-two
