Medical School
An inspection party of four Army officers, in charge of Col. G. Philip Grabfield, has scouted the campus as a preliminary to opening discussions on the possibility of a contract for a unit at the School. The maximum number for this year would be fifteen men, probably housed in North Fayer. Our 2nd lieutenants have resigned in anticipation thereof and have applied for enlistment in the AERC. They will go to Fort Devens for induction on the 10th of June and expect to return on the 13th for the new semester.
