For the first time in the History of our Country the R. O. T. C. graduates a class into our army at war. For the first time the United States armed forces are receiving the inestimable benefit of the many years of an intensive program inaugurated during VVorld War I. At present approximately 75,000 R. O. T. C. graduates are on active duty with the Army. This spring 9,000 mo1'e will have their orders before they graduate. Alumni of lVIontana State College are now on active duty with the army in every corner of the earth-Alaska, Philippine Islands, Panama, Hawaii, and all over the United States. These men have gone out and joined men from other schools and now comprise practically the entire officer personnel of the Army in the lower grades. It is to these men and the men who follow them to whom we must look, in no small measure, for the preservation of America and our American way of life . . . our greatest heritage. cub:-asa, . ..., :J--.1 :A-for-u ' 0.4, ul .. .,.v.4.-.ow . .- , U . ..f..nuv-an-.-1.-.--1 ,.- .. -i-4.
