WASHINGTON, D. C., April 23.--A message from Captain Cordier and Captain Bjornstadt this evening stated that the outlook for the establishment of a camp at Harvard for the training of officers for the Reserve Officers' Corps was favorable. President Lowell and Captain Cordier were in conference today with the Secretary of War and with members of the War College Division of the General Staff, and laid before them the plans and arguments for the establishment of a unit here. The case is now before the War Department and a definite decision is expected tomorrow. Government regulation prevents the publication of the details at present.

If a camp is established in Cambridge it will probably be constituted as the 15th of the series of Officers' Training Camps which the Government has founded throughout the country. Men would be admitted from other New England colleges as well as from the University and would be subject to the same rules and regulations as are provided for the admission to the other camps. Although it is probable that the Government age limit of 20 years and nine months would be adhered to, it is possible that some arrangement can be made for men under that age but over 19 whereby they may continue their training work here.

There are several strong reasons for the establishment of a unit of the Training Corps in Cambridge which may secure a favorable decision from the War Department. At present, with the transfer of that camp which was to have been stationed at Fort Ethan Allen to Plattsburg, there is no camp in New England. The location of the University at the centre of a group of colleges makes it particularly available.

Enrolment in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps as it now exists at the University was reopened today and in spite of the uncertain conditions the results were encouraging. Ninety men enrolled in the course at the Recorder's Office and of this number 75 have reported for their physical examination. Of these 62 have so far been accepted. Enlistment may be made daily from 9 to 6 at Warren House through Friday.
