NAVAL OFFICERS' . COURSE OFFERED G. W. U. to Institute Instruc- tion for Reserves With Navy Department Aid. Goorge Washington University will offer for the first time this vear a naval reserve officers’ course, it was announced yesterday by President William Mather Lewis. The course was arranged with the assistance of the Navy Department. The course is elective and covers the full four years of undergraduate work. Its purpose is to provide a course in instruction so designed that a college man may prepare himself for service in time of national emer- gency as a commissioned officer of the Navy.

During the experimental stages of this new movement resig- nations for cause will be considered at the end of the first vear. Upon successful completion of the course students will be commissioned as en- signs in the Naval Reserve Force.

College will offer a course this vear in busi- ness administration leading to the degree of bachelor of businecs ad- ministration. While the school from its beginning has offered some sub- Jjects along this line, it has not given a complete course leading to a de- gree in business administration. The cour-e has been outlined under the direction of James A. Bell, M. A. director of education, and D. A. Dol- larhide. M. A., dean of the school ot accountancy. The student may com- plete the course in less than the pre- scribed time by attending Summer sessions. In addition to this new course and the regular accountancy course, reveral single special subjects will be given, including advertising, salesmanship, real _estate, public speaking, business English and ro- port writing, and income tax. Bn- roliments for the C. P. A. coaching course have been closed, as the course was limited to 30 students and that number had ¢nrolled before the open- ing of the course on September 1. All other courses in the school of ac- countancy will begin on September 16, including freshmen and advanced classes in one, two, three and four year courses.

Steward School is just beginning its twelfth year and continues to oc- cupy the same quarters where the school was first organized in the Brentano Building, 1202 F street. Miss E. Virginia Grant, who has re- cently resigned her position as presi- dent of the Washington Schoo! for Secretaries, has accepted the poition as principal of Steward School. Miss Grant is well known to a large num- ber of Washington people, having been continuously engaged in the teaching of commercial subjects in Washington during the past eight years. Miss Grant came to Washing- ton to act as principal of Steward School, which position she held for four years, after which she organized the Washington School for Secre- taries, where her work was crowned with notable success. The secretarial department has been greatly increased, both in num- ber of pupils as well as equipment, and the course has been considerably extended to meet the modern require- ments of seurcmrm sclence training. old Il]mou Pnper Quits.
