On November 13 the following members of the S. A. T. C. Unit were transferred to to C. O. T. C. at Fortress Monroe, Va., for training in the heavy Artillery: N. M. Parrott '15; B. B. M.

Early in November Major Silas Williams of the Field Artillery inspected seventy-five applicants for candidacy for Field Artillery commissions, and of the seventy-five he was allowed by the War Department to choose forty. He accepted thirty-three of these. In two of the leading New England colleges which Major Williams had visited just before coming to Dartmouth, in which the -same numbers were available and acceptable, he chose only seven men. He requested to be allowed to take all seventy-five of the men who had been picked at Dartmouth by the Dean's Office and the Military Headquarters, but he received orders to take only those over twenty years of age. These men were ready to go to their training camps when the armistice was signed; they were consequently ordered to remain here. Similarly forty-seven men examined for military aeronautics were kept in Hanover by the signing of the armistice.
