Dean Says Unii
Paid }
Lost Over 500 Men
Tells Of Mllitary Training Con
ducted On Campus During
Days Of Fighting
"If the nation lost as heavily as the
University did in the World War,
,there would have been five times ps
many casualties," declared Dean
F. W. Bradley Wednesday morning
when he gave one of a series of talks
on the history of the University. He
stated that the University's contribu
tion to the war was over five hundred.
Dean Bradley contended that though
many from the University were un
able to go to the war, they were very
useful in the Council of Defense.
General Thompson came to the Uni
versity and drilled the students early
every morning. Although they were
unable to secure arms, they executed
drill nearly as effectively. "Youthful
spirit can hardly be suppressed, even
"yhen going to war," declared the
Dean.
Dean Bradley asserted that in some
cases, soldiers were sent home for be
ing underweight and very rarely for
anything else.
"After three months of camp and
close order drill, we received our orders
to go across," said Dean Bradley, "we
went in a boat that had part of the
hull missing."
Dr. Bradley told of the conditions
"over there" and of the prohibiting of
lights. He spoke of the 31st division
which was bombed two successive
nights.
Dean Bradley was in the intelli
gence department during the war and
he told of the different methods that
they used to gain information from
the enemy. The principal ones were:
tapping telephone wires, intercepting
messages carried by dogs and pigeons
and from the prisoners themselves.
The Allies had maps determining the
positions of every gun emplacement
on the German front. After Arm
istice, these were checked and found
correct in every way.
"After Armistice was signed, there
was a longing for peace-world peace,"
concluded Dean Bradley, "This re
suited in the formation of the League
of Nations."
Jean Campbell
Becomes Doctor
Jean Campbell hs proved that
patent medicines are a hoax. Last
Sunday night, while it was raining,
she was asked by ya sick friend, to
go to the University Infirmary and
get a dose of Milk of Magnesia.
Not wanting to go all the way to
the Infirmary she decided to play a
joke on her friend. She mixed white
shoe polish with water and presented
that, wetting her hat to give it the
the appearance of having been in the
rain. To her dismay the friend drank
the shoe pol!ish-and was immediately
relieved.
