For Optional Training
Princeton, N. J. (By New Stud
ent Serviee)—An opponent of com
pulsory military training has been
discovered by the Daily Princeton-
ian in Captain Wardlaw Miles, form
erly professor of English at Prince
ton, whose bravery during the war
won for him the Congressional Med
al.
“I am against compulsory military
training in the colleges,” said Cap
tain Miles, “because I am not con
vinced that compulsory training is
desirable for America in general,
and because I am sure it would be a
bad thing for the colleges in partic
ular. Colleges ought to be places
where young men go to satisfy intel
lectual curiosity. The less compul
sion—except the compulsion to make
intellectual slackers get out—the
“On the other hand, I am for op
tional military training in colleges
because I am glad to believe there
are a certain number of college
who want voluntarily to prepare
themselves for war should it coi
New England
Regional Magazine
Cambridge, Mass. (By New Stud
ent Service)—The first historical
review of New England life and let
ters, “The New England Quarterly”
has been established by five Har
vard professors. They are S. E.
Morison, professor of history; A. M.
Schlesinger, professor of history; K.
B. Murdock, professor of English;
Professor Stanley Williams; and A.
I.. Mayo, assistant dean of the
Graduate School of Arts and Sci-
The magazine contains articles,
documents, book reviews, and notes.
Students, graduates, and others who
have contributions bearing on New
England life or letters may offer
terial. The purpose is explained by
the editor as follows;
“We believe that New England,
like the other sections of our coun
try, has had in the past a well-de-
fined provincial culture, and has
lade a distinctive contribution to
American life, character and civili-
)n. A quarterly journal, includ-
witliin its scope the literary,
al and eocnonric history of New
England, and the westward expan
ion of New England people, should
irst, meet a recognized need of
leholars of history and literature,
and, segond, the rising generation of
•holars in a field that needs eulti-
ition. In the study of American
literature many large problems and
topics must wait for final treatment
imtil the detailed studies upon
which they must be based have been
lade. At present there is almost no
ipportunity for the publication of
these studies. The colonial and
volutionary history of New Eng-
nd has been written largely from a
irrowly antiquarian viewpoint; the
history of New England thought
and letters largely from a personal
viewpoint, and the economic, social
and political history of New Eng
land during the last hundred years
has hardly been touched at all.”
