Conditions at Yale University, as everywhere else, have been completely altered by the war-time requirements. Here, as in almost every college in the United States, an S. A. T. C. and a Naval Unit have been established; the Yale S. A. T. C. is commanded by Major S. A. Welldon, F. A., U. S. A., and the Naval Unit is commanded by Rear Admiral C. M. Chester, U. S. N., retired. Of the 1600 students enrolled in the university, almost half are in the artillery school; a large per cent of the rest are in the Naval Unit, and the men who did not choose either of these branches are fairly evenly divided between the Engineers, the Chemists, the Signal Corps, the Medical Corps, and the Army Laboratory School, which has been recently moved to New Haven from Leavenworth, under the command of Colonel C. F. Craig; there are even fewer academic students in New Haven than there are in Cambridge. The organization and general management of the military affairs at Yale is very similar to the organization here.

Eli Artillery.

There are already over three hundred Yale men, both officers and candidates, at the Field Artillery Central Officers' Training School at Camp Zachary Taylor, Ky.; nearly one hundred and seventy of the candidates are undergraduates, a large number of whom were commissioned second lieutenants before going to the school.

A short time ago a completely equipped battery of American three-inch guns, with caissons and limbers, arrived for the use of the Yale S. A. T. C. field artillery men. It was also reported that a battery of French 75-millimetre guns which the Yale R. O. T. C. received from the western front a year ago, and which had been loaned to the government, had been shipped to New Haven. The Unit also has the battery of British 75's which were sent when the French guns were loaned to the government. This gives the S. A. T. C. a large assemblage of guns upon which to work in training men for the field artillery. Also the Yale Naval Unit has received two power driven boats and two schooners, each accommodating about 50 men, so that it will be possible to make week-end cruises on which the men may gain practical experience in navigation.

College Reorganized.

The war has also caused an extensive reorganization of almost all the departments of Yale University, with the result that the many disjointed branches which went to make up the university have been consolidated into a more efficient group; also several new courses bearing directly on the war have been introduced, among which is a course in "War Issues," a combination of History and Economics which corresponds almost exactly to the course in "Problems and Issues of the War" given here.

Daniels Visits Naval Unit.

Secretary Daniels unexpectedly made his second visit to the Yale Naval Unit a week ago Monday; his first visit to New Haven was made last spring specially to inspect the naval training being conducted at the university; his second visit last week, was made incidental to a visit to New Haven for other purposes.

It was recently learned from the will of the late E. P. Howe, a graduate of Yale in the class of '76, Yale University and the Worcester Polytechnic School are to share equally an estate estimated at $400,000, which is the amount left after several personal bequests have been deducted.

Vigorous methods were adopted at Yale to prevent the spread of the Spanish influenza, and they were rewarded with great success; a program of non-intercourse and constant out-door activity was laid out by the military and the college authorities which minimized the danger of infection.
