Second Regiment Is in Sight As
Result of Latest Plan By
Authorities.
Innovation! In the organisation of
the. high school cadets this year will
Increase the number of companies and
may result, for the first tlmo In the
history of the cadets. In the formnllon
of two regiments.
This announcement was made today
by 8 E. Kramer, assistant superin
tendent of schools. In charge of the
details of the cadet body. The prin
cipal change In organising the regiment
this year will be the limitation, when
ever possible, of all companies to six
squads, or fifty-six members. Including
officers. '
Hitherto most of the companies have
sought to hae seven, or even eight
squads, believing their size gave them
an advantage when they entered the
competitive drill In June nut. Mr.
Kramer explained, companies of this
site are too unwieldy for the, city
streets, where the bovs must drill most
of the year. Therefore, to give an
even break to all companies, and to
facilitate the drills, companies will be
limited to six squads when possible
This arrangement also Is expected to
have the effect of Increasing the aggre
gate enrollment of the cadets, as well
as Increasing the number of companies.
"With more companies," Mr Kramer
said, "thcro will bo more opportunities
for commissions. In pnst cars mnny
boys, when they had finished their sec
ond or third years, felt they had gotten
all there was to be had In the cadets
That Is a feeling we wish to dispel
We would like to hae something new
for the second and third-year boy. and
to give the responsibilities of com
missions to all fourth-ear boys who
h.v. enmert them."
In addition to this, the enlistment
In the cadets Is expected to bo In
creased because of the efforts of princi
pals of high schools to hao all bojs
join unless iney can (jitBcm u uu
nritnia fnr atnvlnr nut.
If there are two regiments a colonel
still will be In command, Mr. Kramer
said. Regimental examinations are to
be held at the Franklin School tomor
row and company examinations are In
be held on Friday. inc rcgimoniai
.Tuminiiloiu will be oral and the com
pany examinations will he written
tests.
