McCabe Atwood Pettigrew Gordon Whitmore I MILITARY HE Reserve Officers Training Corps in the schools and colleges has run the gamut of public opinion-a high enthusiasm just prior to America's participation in the World War, and severe antagonism in the years immediately following the great struggle. The attitude toward military training in the colleges of the country has now become more sympathetic, due to the fact that there is a clearer conception of the work done and of the purpose of the government in training college men. Probably no better example of this favorable, or at least understanding, view of the R. O. T. C. program taken by the school authorities and the general public exists than here at Stanford. The question of compulsory training which flares up periodi- cally at other colleges and state universities is absent hereg all Work at Stanford is voluntary. Yet it is significant that each year witnesses an increase in the number of men who register in the local unit. Military training was started on the Farm in the early nineties but the R. O. T. C. was not established until 1916. Then the unit was an infantry battalion of about 400 men under the late Colonel Jens Bugge. Of the 687 students who served in the Stan- ford battalion up to April 1917, 414 were in the service during the war. Because of the ideal climatic conditions and the available extensive and varied terrain, the infantry was replaced with a Field Artillery unit in 1917. The pioneer Field Artillery man at Stanford was Nlajor Leroy P. Collins, who very soon overcame most of the obstacles that are generally found in the way of such new enterprises. He and his successor, Major W. D. Geary, slowly but surely built up a lasting foundation for mutual understanding and good will with the university authorities and the people of the community. Since modern warfare is becoming more and more a battle of blueprints and test tubes it was an appropriate step when in 1925 Major Frank J. Atwood established an Ordnance Unit on the Farm. This part of R. O. T. C. work is open only to students in the School of Engineering who have completed the two year basic course. Thus, the technically trained students are placed in the branch for which they are well fitted. In the spring of 1927, the unit was made one of the departments of the School of Engineering. Lieutenant Colonel Hoover, Ordnance Reserves, Dean of the School, is one of the Stanford R. O. T. C.'s most enthusiastic supporters. 175
