The New Army Course Immediately upon the declaration of war by President Wilson, a meeting of prominent men from all parts of the country was held in Garden City, Long Island, and under the leadership of Dr. John R. Mott, there w r as formed a War Work Council composed of one hundred men to further and enlarge the present work of the Army and Navy department in meeting the needs of the enlisted men of the Army, Navy, and National Guards. Springfield College was selected as one of the training agencies to prepare and equip men for this special task. Realizing that the men already in the ( ollege, with their splendid previous training and capacity for leadership, should receive the benefit of this special course, plans were made to begin the work at once. The College was fortunate in securing Mr. Arthur Rcdman Arthur Rudman to take charge of this work. For eight years Mr. Rudman w r as associated as an Army Y. M. C. A. Secretary with the enlisted men during the Spanish-American War, on the Pacific C ' oast, and in the Philippines, and in 1916, when trouble broke out along the Mexican border, he was called by the International Committee to take over the supervision of the Association work over a large territory ot the border. His knowledge ot actual conditions in the army together with his experience and broad vision ot the possibilities of Association work for enlisted men, qualify him peculiarly for this tremendous and important task. Four periods a week are devoted to this subject and aim to acquaint the students with con- ditions in this branch of Association service. The lectures include such subjects as: Army Organization; Camp Conditions and their Challenge to Men; Response of the Association to the Needs; The Work on the Mexican Border; I lie Crowd, the Group and the Individual; The Army .M .C.A. Relationships, to the ( Ifficers, to the Men, to the C itvC hurches; The Building, its Plans, Equipment, Organization, and Work; The Sign of the Red Triangle; I he Army Y. M. C. A., Organization, Authorization, and Secretarial Relationships; The Regular Activities and Departmental Organization; Athletic and Educational Departments; Social and Religious Departments; Outside and Miscellaneous Activities; The Program — the Day, the Week, the Month; The Business — Finance, Reports; I.ieut.
