Students of Naval Science in the University again this year will have the privilege of participating in the weekend cruises which in the past have supplied entertainment and instruction to the Naval Reserves of several Eastern colleges. The cruises, made weekly in a Navy ship of the Eagle type, enable students to put to practical use some of the knowledge gained in the classroom, and participants are allowed to take the longer trip made each year in June.
Trip to Last Fortnight
The June Voyage this year, beginning shortly after Commencement, will last for approximately two weeks. Twenty-five Harvard students took the cruise last June on board the battleship Wyoming. Other student officers on the ship came from the Naval Reserve units at Yale, Georgia Tech, and Northwestern, most of the men taking the complete trip as far north as Halifax, N. S., and as far south as Charleston, S. C. The students were warmly received at each city visited, and were accompanied from Portland to Boston by Curtis D. Wilbur, Secretary of the Navy.
The only universities in the country beside those mentioned above, that sponsor Naval Reserve units are the University of Washington and the University of California. These two western colleges took their June cruise along the Paciflc seaboard aboard the battleship Pennsylvania, sailing as far south as Victoria, B. C.
