The John Burroughs School was opened for the first time at the beginning of the present scholastic year. Boys in the high schools are mani- more interest in the cadet than ever before, if their enthusiasm to join the organiza- fion can be taken as a criterion. Hun- dreds of boys already have enlisted in he soldier-student body, and before the end of the week it expected that twenty-five companies will have been organized. There were twenty- one companies last year. The reduced cost of the uniform is said to be partly responsible for the enlargement of the cadet corps this vear. However, many novel features which will be introduced by Lieut. Col. Wallace M. Craigie, U A., pro- fessor of military science and tactics in the high schools. have attracted some of the boys. These include the organization of bands at Central and Tech High schools and a battalion ~ompetitive drill, which is designed to popularize the cadet majorship. ory Meeting and u tions astern High School will b deferred pending the cnforcement of he hoard of eduration’s ruling de- <igned to eradicate secret societies in ‘he hieh schools, it was annoimeed last nizht by Principal Charles Hart.

GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY. { Confronted by the -housing short- age in Washington, which Is becom- {ing more acute with the approach- jini conference on the limitation of armaments, the students of the Georgetown University professional schools will meet this morning to take the question of living costs into their own hands. The housing committee appolnted last summer to arrange for a down- | town dormitory buildfig and for board. accommodations for incoming | students will make its formal report i and recommendations at a meeting of 1 the Georgetown Union at 10 o'clock in i Gaston Hall at the college. Two necessary objects are sought oy the union, which is the center of | student activities in the law, fo eigr service, medical and dental schools. Living costs for the stu- idents must be lowered and_ the \pur- jchase or lease of a large downtown eral hundred persons, must be di- rected by the student body, suppert- ed by the faculty. !""One of the first steps in this direc- {tion will be taken when the question jof incorporating the Georgetown }Union arises, so that the union may ihold real estate. John Bowen, reg- istrar at the college ®nd chairman of the housing committee, will re- port the recommendations and these will be acted upon today. Aside from the location of a uni- versity dormitory, the committee has been fine-combing the residential sec- tions of the city for suitable board- ing_ houses and residences where students may obtain either board or ilodging at a reasonable cost. Care has been taken, in the selection of the list, to eliminate the so-called rent profiteer. In this way it is esti- I mated that several hundred students, {most of them incoming freshmen who are unacquainted with lving conditions in the city, will be pro- {vided with rooms in suitable private homes. The question of purchasing or leas- ling an apartment house is quite an- | other problem, sinece it involves the expenditure of a large sum of money. A schedule has been worked out, however. showing that such a prop- osition could be put over at a very reasonable monthly rate for each stu- ldent who goes into it. President John B. Creedon, S. J., and other offi- cials of the university are thoroughly in sympathy with the efforts of the Georgetown union to help solve the Ligh cost of living that is a formi- dnble problem with many students. With the opening of the law school Saturday night the entire university is now in full swing. The most im- I portant announcement in connection with the law school is the establish- ment of a pre-legal course of two years in the college for the benefit jof students who wish a highly spe- cialized training to take up the study of law. It is announced by the school jauthorities that this step is taken in accordance with the policy of improv- iing the standards of the institution jfrom time to time. lish, government, history and pubiic | speaking, while elective studies fu- clude French, Spanish, German, physics, chemistry, biology and journalism, { For the second-year course the {and public speaking, while added to the elective studies are economies, jsociology. history and Latin. It is recommended by President Creedon and George E. Hamllton, dean of the law school, that all students of the pre-legal course become members of {the various debating societies at thg college.
