MILITARY ENROLMENT FIGURES

The following information in regard to the numbers of men in the S. A. T. C. at Dartmouth was given out by the military authorities on the morning of October 24. At that time there were 612 men enlisted in Class Aof the S. A. T. C. Of these 49 were enlisted in the Naval Unit, 34 in the Naval Reserve Force, and the remainder in the Army Unit. In addition to this, 109 men under eighteen years of age were enrolled but not enlisted. These men take all the work that the enlisted men do, and are subject to the same disciplinary restrictions ; most of them will become eighteen before. the next registration day, and will then be enlisted. A new quota of Class B, which was due on October 15, but was held up because of the influenza epidemic, is expected soon,—probably by the first of November. This will include about 450 men, bringing the number of men in training then up to approximately 1200.

At present the troops have as barracks Massachusetts Row and Hubbard and Hitch-cock Halls for the accommodation of the Class A men; New Hampshire and South Fayerweather Halls for the accommodation of the enrolled men under eighteen; and Middle Fayerweather for the Class B men. College Hall is at present used entirely by the S. A. T. C. as a mess hall and infirmary. A canteen under the management of Mr. Fair-field and the Unit Quartermaster, has been opened in the Coffee Room of the Hanover Inn. Here all small articles of equipment, food, soft drinks, ice cream, etc., are sold to the men; the profits reverting to the headquarters and company funds for the purchase of articles for the comfort of the men not otherwise provided.
