Busy School E.R.C. To Go On April 5

Latest Reserve Group Will Include About Eighty Men

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Second group to leave the University as unassigned members of the enlisted Reserve Corps are the Business School Industrial Administration students, who depart for induction and placement at Fort Devens on Monday, April 5.

Together with one or two students working for a Master of Business Administration degree, this latest khaki-bound contingent numbers about 80 men. They include a good majority of the civilians at the School who are neither in assigned Army Reserve groups nor the Navy, leaving behind only a handful in mufti.

QM Remains

Included in the reserve groups which will remain at the school are the Quartermaster Corps ROTC men, and the Navy Ordnance reservists. The IA men, however, were not eligible for these assignments since they are not in supply corps work, but in industrial fields. Nevertheless, some of the men who are called up April 5 will be able to get their degrees if their records are satisfactory. This possibility was opened, when the Business School administration voted to give a diploma to any student who started the 12 month course last June and will stay until April 3.

While reports of activation of Army ROTC's trickled in from throughout the country, the Military Science Department had up to last night heard no definite word on the calling up of the Field Artillery or Quartermaster units. Discussions are in progress to set a date for the start here of the first Army Training School, but this basic time has not yet been fixed.

Most startling was the sudden notice to Michigan ROTC students on Saturday that their orders would arrive by today, and that they would be at an induction center for processing by Thursday.
