ROTC Must Attend May 27; Big Stadium Review Today

Saltonstall Will See Eight Awards Given

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

With the Harvard ROTC drawn up for review this afternoon, eight men, six from the undergraduate Field Artillery unit and two from the Busy School's Quartermaster Corps, will receive awards for outstanding performance during the past year.

James H. Reynolds, Jr. '43, of Winthrop House and Lowell, Cadet Colonel, will receive the award for excellence in Mil Sci 4, while William P. Schlichter '44 of Leverett House and Cambridge will be awarded a similar prize for his work in Mil Sci 3.

Nelson Wins

The two awards given by the Sons of the American Revolution for Mil Sci 2 and Mil Sci 1 will be presented to Guerdon H. Nelson '45 of Lowell House and New Brunswick, New Jersey and William W. Dunn '46 of Winthrop House and New York respectively.

Thomas M. Stanton '44 of Eliot House and Cincinnati, Ohio, will be presented the prize for the most interest in military affairs, while that for excellence in gunnery goes to Richard Lehman '44, of Adams House and University, Virginia.

Saltonstall to Attend

With Governor Saltonstall, Major General Sherman Miles, Commandant of the First Service Command, and Colonel Dean Hudnutt, Yale PMS&T and other civilian and military dignitaries, attending, this review, although perhaps the last for some time, will, nevertheless follow in the steps of its predecessors.

The ROTC students will commence falling in at 1:30 in front of Widener, and after marching down to the Stadium at 2:30, they will await the entrance of the reviewing party. With QM and FA battalions standing at present arms while Ruffles and The Star Spangled Banner are being played, the party will enter the Stadium and then proceed on an inspection of the troops.

Passing in Review

When this has been finished, the battalions will pass the reviewing stand, led by the undergraduate Field Artillery. They will then see demonstrations of various phases of Mil Sci training.

Special sections will demonstrate service of the piece, driving, footdrill, gunnery and the operation of a Fire-Direction Center.
