V lo. .' 5.... .'.-..... hillllllllllllllillllll Associated Federal Students The Government of the United States is making a determined effort to assist, by education, every deserving person Who served their country in the Army, Navy, Marine Corps or as Nurses during the late war. First by means of the XVar Risk Insurance Act, then the Federal Board, and now the United States Veterans Bureau, all of them products of a generous country and all for the purpose of instilling into each disabled person the importance of knowing how to do some useful thing efficiently. The work of the Veterans Bureau is fast drawing to a close. Those men who are entitled to the benefits to be derived have taken advantage of the opportunities offered and have gone back to civilian life even better fitted to ttcarry 01? than before they sacrificed their all to answer the call of their country. There are now only twenty-eight Veterans Bureau men at this branch of the University of California. They are organized as ttThe Associated Federal Students? Their work in the class room and on the campus is unsurpassed. Due to the fact that they are all suffering some physical disability directly due to their service they are not represented in athletics. The Associated Federal Students are indebted to the Government of the United States for the opportunity offered them to better themselves. More directly they are indebted to Mr. HerbertH. Hope, who is the local rehabilitation otticer of the Bureau, WllO by his encouragement and advice has helped us all through our difficulties in getting back to normal, after the unsettled life in the service. Also to Miss Margaret Anderson, the Veterans Bureau nurse in charge of this district. And to Messrs. Warr and Queen of the District ottice Who are always most encouraging and helpful. t37l

Val THE MENtS RIFLE CLUB Military Science The Rifle Teams The course in Military training as part of the required work for degree students has been in the curriculum of the University of Cahfornla since 1878, but only since January, 1923, have students at the Un1vers1ty F arm been offered this course. In the first year of its existence here the Military Department has made excellent progress both in the profielency of the company in drill and in the other subjects taught in the equipment for instruction. Two inspections by visiting re gular army officers have been made and on both occasions the officer s making the inspections expressed themselves as being quite favorably impressed. Major General Norton, Commander of the Ninth Corps Area, seemed especially pleased. Colonel Nance and Major Kelly, from Berkeley, also expressed their satisfaction.
