00 5 CADETS ON PARADE We formed early in September this year. Temporary officers were named who took over the reins of the cadet corps until permanent officers could be appointed. There were about three platoons of old cadets coming back and two platoons of recruits. We formed two companies, a third to be formed later. We who hoped to become officers were instructed by Lieutenant Liwski in military science and tactics. When the officers were chosen, there were a few dark horses, most promotions occurring, however, as had been expected. The cadets now go on parade. Our first efforts of ma jor importance were in the Dairy Festival Parade at Manassas. We made a good showing here, considering the short time allowed for training and the inexperience of the cadet officers. We next participated in a squad competition in which we lost to our brothers-in-arms, George Mason. The cadet corps planned a tree planting exercise for Arbor Day, but this failed to materialize because of inclement weather which lasted for fifteen days. Eyes, Right! The reviewing stand! Next came our much-looked-forward-to Winchester trip. Here we made a good showing even if it was in the usual Apple Blossom Festival weather — rain. We are now approaching the competitive drill. Our platoon is drilling unceasingly. This year we compete against George Mason and Washington and Lee. The latter are competing with us for the first time in two years. We are placing much hope on winning. The end of the parade draws near. June is now at hand, the time when many of the officers have a feeling creeping over them, a feeling of losing something dear to them. Many officers are leaving the cadet corps, never to lead it in parades or on the drill field again. We, the officers, salute the cadet corps and turn over our commands to the next cadets to fall in line. William Jefferies, Major, Cadet Corps, ' 35. N. B. — As this goes to press, news comes to us that Lieutenant Liwski is leaving immediately to assume official duties in the United States Army. We should like to take this opportunity of expressing to Lieutenant Liwski our appreciation for his splendid work and cooperation here with us and our gratitude for his friendship. In him we found a strong leader, a staunch friend, and an officer who has served our needs and established behind him firm ideals that should make of our boys such men for the future. T age Sixty-one
