Ztlzzfwunl HE CALL is All out for Uncle Sam and here at State Teachers College every man jack and every girl jill is finding a job in the scheme for winning the war. The college has become a seat of training and preparation for a group of reserve soldiers, marines and teachers who are few in number but great in earnest, patriotic zeal. Many of the young men are formally enlisted in the military and marine reserves, and several have already left for active service. Those who are still here are preparing to battle that fifth columnist Ignorance as he threatens the youngsters of our nation. No smart uniforms nor trim-sound- ing titles await these reserves. They won't even have cute coveralls and factory hats designed by Sally Victor. They will go about their work in ordinary clothes, under commonplace circumstances, but they will have answered the call to service as truly and honestly as a patriot can. S.T.C. is a training camp in every sense of the word. Commander-in-chief Bowman and his Chiefs-of-staff, the faculty, have set high standards. They have armed the reserves with the wisdom of the classics. Their manual of instruction has been the best of the old and the new in learning. The strategy they teach has been tested by experience and found effective. Regular inspections have been held twice a year and few of the troops were found wanting. Organized drill in the gymnasium kept the troops supple and alert, and manoeuvres in the train- ing school gave them experience which will be valuable in the real battle. The reserves of S.T.C. stand at attention ready for the call to active duty. 12
