Students Find Weather Cnditions at Fort Wright Far From Comforta- ble. The Rhode Island and Connecticut state students, now in camp at Fort Wright on Fishers Island, think they will be ready for service in the Alps if need be. They have nearly frozen in their tents in the raw weather of the past few days and feel fitted for a Polar expedition if called upon. The experience will do them no harm, the camp, as real soldiers have to face all kinds of weather and many trying conditions. But it is anything but that the Kingston and May weather Storrs boys are experiencing and they shiver nights in the range of the stiff wind that sweeps off the sound and goes rattling over the island. ‘Wednesday night was an especially breezy night over on Fishers Island. A high wind was rampant and the none too stalwart tents shook in the grip of, the heavy gusts. The heavy rain of Wednesday morn- ing gave the camp a thorough wet- tipg down and left everyone feeling generally uncomfortable. But ‘despite the weather the students are enjoy- ing the novelty of camp duty. They revel in the sensation of beoing a reg- ular soldier for a few days at least, following a regular daily camp routine and affiliating with the regulars to whofn it is not exactly a novelty, since it is their life 365 days a year. The 400 young men are being given some valuable, practical training un- der the watc] trained holmd to return to their books next week greatly benefited. The students are divided into two cadet battalions each -school, Con- necticut Agricultural and Rhode Is- land State, having its cadet battalion with a full complement of officers. . The open air life has whetted the appetites of the schoolboy soldiery. School boys usually earry strong. petites anyway, but they have been augmented by the exercise in the open and the battalion cooks are not com- plaining of any food excess.
