Colonel Robert C. F. Goetz, field artillery, arrived in Cambridge yesterday morning to make preliminary arangements for the establishment of an artillery unit at the University. He conferred with President Lowell, Dean Yeomans, and acting-dean C. N. Greenough, but would not comment for the present on the intended unit. "After I have become more acquainted with the situation here I shall be glad to discuss my plans," said Colonel Goetz yesterday to a CRIMSON reporter, "but all I have to say now is that I am very enthusiastic about the prospects of organizing an artillery unit at Harvard."

Colonel Goetz graduated from West Point in 1909. He was made a first lieutenant in 1916 and a captain in May, 1917. Then he received a rapid series of promotions, being commissioned major in June, 1918, lieutenant-colonel in August, and colonel in October, 1918. After his graduation from West Point Colonel Goetz was stationed principally in the west, and from 1912 to 1917 he served in Honolulu and Panama. Since the beginning of the war he has been engaged in military instruction duty, and was last assigned to Camp Jackson, S. C. His home is in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
