Government Reveals Plans For Colleges To Train Soldiers New Plan Is To Be On Voluntary Basis New York, N. Y. (ACP).—Lt. Col. Harley B. West of the war department general staff has disclosed a plan for large-scale conversion of American col leges and universities into training bases for the armed forces.. West told a meeting of the Middle States Association . of Colleges and Secondary Schools that students will be selected from "young men in the army who have demon strated aptitude to receive such higher education," and that they will live under army discipline and receive regular army pay while in training. Dr. Edmund E. Day, presi dent of Cornell university, an nounced that as many as 250,-' 000 service men will be sent to colleges under the plan. Military representatives em phasized that the government will not take over any colleges to which service men will be sent for courses lasting from nine months to more than two years. "Any relation between the armed services and collegiate institutions is going to be purely voluntary and there is to be no requisiting," West said. Joseph W. Barker, dean of the Columbia school of engi neering and special assistant to Secretary of the Navy Knox, (See GOVERNMENT—Page 4) Schedule Of First Semester Examinations January 20-26, 1943. 7:30 7:30 8:30 8:30 9:30 2:00 10:30 10:30 12:00 12:00 1:00 1:00 2:00 9:30 3:00 3:00 T.T.S Wednesday, M.W.F.
