Almost One-half of Students Enrolled Left Studies to Serve the Country. Almost one-half of the students en- rolled inall the colleges and universi- ties, technical and agricultural schools of New England enlisted in the‘active military or naval service of the United States or dropped their studies and de- voted alltheir attention to indirect war service within short time of the entry of this country into war last spring, according to statistics gathered by the <ommittee on publicity of the Connec- ticut state council of defense. The figures upon which this estimate is based were received by the commit- tee in responss to a questionaire semt to each of the colleges and schools. A little over one-fourth of the total enrollment of the colleges enlisted di- rectly In the military service of“their céuntry. Therz were approvimately 20,000 students in the 20" colleges of New England when this nation became involved in the war. Of these 5,249 Joined the colors almost immediately. Nearly 3,060 more took up one form or another of indirect war-service, such as agriculture or technical work, bring- Ing the total of war workers to 8,200. These figures do not include gradiate enlistments nor enlistments by under- graduates since the . selective _service act became effective. All the colloges gave heartily of their sons when the call came. Statistics gathered by the registrars of Yale and rvard, though more carefully com- piled than those of seme of the smali- er colleges, are thought to be only typical of the rest. These .two insti- tations lost approximately 65 per cent. of their. enrollments through enlist- 1ents, although it has heen estimated trat on an average only 70 per cent. of the average. college -enrollment is physically fit for active war service.

Keep on the Move to H Find Shelter. The 26th company, L. I §., in camp on Fisher’s Island. wis given a chance to do seashore stunts right in their company street when the severe storm of last week hit the island. The men :oed from tent to tent and they sel dom were more than inside the tent before it ‘blew down. They waded down - the street to the mess _tent. which was dry for a while, but finally became too‘wet for comfort. The men turned out again and paddied through 16 inches of water to their half-com- pleted barracks. After some makeshift boarding of wirdows and chinking of cracks, the barracks were put in con- dition for the night. The next morn- irg the camping ground was strewn with' tepts and military equipment of all desériptions. For many hours the boys were poking around in the wea- Wweed and asking each other “Has any- body ‘seen anything of my blankets, towels, shirt, hat?” etc. Thursday was &pent in pitching the tents again, this time in a more sheltered position. The Y. M. C. A. tent was one of, the .40 0dd tents that suffered and never did the boys miss arything as they did the old Y. Taken aitogether.
