GEN, WOOD TO SPEAK ON PREPABEDNESS IN COLLEGES
To Be Guest of Wesleyan Alumni it Delmonicos January 14
Gen. Leonard Wood will be the principal speaker at the coming an¬ nual banquet of the New York alum¬ ni of Wesleyan University, Middle- town, Conn., to he held at Delmonicos on Friday evening, Jan. 14, under the auspices of the Wesleyan University Ciub of New Y'ork, at which will gather over flve hundred alumni and friends of the university. The subject of General Wood's address will be: "The Colleges in Relation to Military Training." The questions which he will discuss will be the principal topic for all the other speakers. Preeldent William Arnold Shanklin of Wesleyan and Hon. Arthur L. Andrews, corpor¬ ation counsel of Albany, and member of the Wesleyan class of 1875, will also speak. The other speakers have uot yet heen announced.
The idea of discussing the matter of preparedneiie ai this occasion was developed by a number of influential alumni who are strongly in favor of military training at Wesleyan for all students as a requirement for grad¬ uation. A joint committee of the trus¬ tees and faculty now has the matier under consideration. Col. John Grlb- bel of Philadelphia, aide on the mili¬ tary sialT of Governor Brumbaugh of Pennsylvania, and a Wesleyan trus¬ tee, is chairman of the committee: former New York City Public Serv¬ ice Commlseloner John E. Eustis, member of Lafayelt Post No. 140, G. A. R., Wesleyan trustee and member of the Wesleyan class of 1874, is an¬ other member of the committee. Hon. Stephen H. Olin of New York City, formerly colonel, and chief of staff of the First Brigade, New York Nalional Guard, Wesleyan irustee, and mem¬ ber of the Wesleyan class of 1866, al¬ though not a member of the commit¬ tee. Is keeping in cloee toucli with its deliberations.
The movemenl for military train¬ ing in colleges ha.s already started at nearby Yale, where a light artillery corps is being organized. Some alum¬ ni favor the proposal to equip a sig¬ nal corp.s at Wesleyan, under the com¬ mand of regular army signal officers, who wili be detached and assigned for llial particular eervice. The student body at Wesleyan now numbers over live Iiundred, which is about the right jsize for the niainlenanee of a signal (orps in all its ditlereut branches. The physical and electrical laboratories at Wesleyan, occupying tlie Jolin Beil Scolt Memorial laboratory building, are under tlie direction of Prof. Wal¬ ter G. Cady and Prof. Morris B. Craw¬ ford, professors of phyeics, and are among the best equipped college physical and electrical laboratories in the United States. With compara¬ tively liltle alteration they can be extended lo meet even the exacting requirements of the regular army sig¬ nal service. Already two wireless stations have been erected and now are in operation at Wesleyan.
An army offlcer of high rank, who ¦ias recently visited Middletown for tlie purpose of examining the topo- graphy of the city and surrounding territory, and the Wesleyan equip¬ ment, reports that botli are more than adequate to warranl the undertaking of the signal corps experiment. He further states that the spacious ath¬ letic Held and large, Hnely eiiuipped Fayerweather gymnasium, both im¬ mediately adjoining the Wesleyan campus, are well adapted for prac¬ tice in the fundamentals of signal drill with flags and seniapliore sys¬ tem, together with drill in laying and erecting fleld telephones and tele- eraphs; while the many commanding hTUs scattered about Middletown in every direction, and ou both sides of tlie Connecticut river, are equally well adapted for the erection of wire¬ less stations, heliographs and lamps of various kinds for working by night. From West Peak of the Hanging Hills, near Middletown, the fineet view In Central Connecticut may be obtained. The whole valley is visible from Mt. Tom In Massachusetts on the north to Long Island and the Sound on the south. From this point hello- graph communication can he main¬ tained with the regular army post on Plum Island, at the eaatern entrance of Long Island Sound, 38 miles dis¬ tant, and with the naval training •station and war college at Newport. 70 miles away. It Is believed that the co-operation of the American Tele¬ graph and Telephone Company and the associated companies can be se¬ cured to Install all the needed appar¬ atus at Wesleyan and on the neigh¬ boring hills within a radius of 27, miles of Middletown, the erection to be supervised by regular army eignal offlcers. One enthusiastic alumnus has offered to provide an automobile with a field wireless equipment.
Intimations have been received that the New York. Ncw Haven and Hartford Railroad Company occasion¬ ally will put a special train at the disposal of the Wesleyan signal corps completely equipped for the transpor¬ tation of signal apparatus. Middle- town is situated on the west hank of the Connecticut river, 16 miles south of Hartford, and is centrally located In a network of railroads, all belong¬ ing to the New Haven system. It te at the junction of the line running from New Haven to Wllllmantlc with the line running from Hartford to Saybrook, along the west hank of the Connecticut river; and It la conneet- ^1 with and onlv a few miles distant from the main line running through Hartford, Meriden and New Haven. A special train running over all these roads wlll give ample opportunity to the signal corps for the study and practice of signal transportation problems and the execution of rapid maneuvers.
A few alumni go as far as urge the organization of an aviation squad as an integral part of the Wesleyan signal corpa, with courses of Instruc¬ tion in aviation. For thia plan at least two aeroplanes and a balloon will be needed for the purpoees of
ohservation and spotting artillery flre. The undergraduate body Is especially enthusiastic over the prospect of this part of the plan heing carried out. Al though the students are green at work in the trenches, they are experts in work at tlie trenches, indeed, they are all very valiant trencher-men. It is expected that during the summer moh\hs the members of the signal corps will be affiliated with the var¬ ious business men's summer military training camps. It is quite possible that the Wesleyan signal corps will work in conjunction with the Yale light artillery corps.
President Wilson, who was profes¬ sor of history and jurisprudence at Wesleyan from 1888 to 1890, le in¬ terested In the plan for military train¬ ing there, as related to his larger plan of national preparedness. The President recently wrote: "My own thought turns back with the greatest pleasure to the memories of my two year-s at Wesleyan. I have always felt that they were among the happi¬ est years of my life."
The plan for military training al Wesleyan is expected to be fully un¬ folded at the banquet, where a lively discussion i s anticipated, aitliongh there are very few pacifists among the Wesleyan alumni. Already Wesleyan is being mentioned as "the war col- ie.sre of New England."
