Captain Robert W. Daniels, of the United States Field Artillery Corps, has been appointed by the War Department instructor in the University R. O. T. C., the Military Office announced yesterday. Captain Daniels, who recently returned from service overseas, with the First Division, will take the place of Major Franklin L. Miller, who was transferred from the University to the Northeastern Department on January 23.

Captain Daniels arrived in Boston Monday from Washington, where he has been since his return to this country and has been going over the equipment of the R. O. T. C. with Captain R. C. F. Goetz, and Lieutenant J. B. Dick, in order to become acquainted with the work in the Military Department here. Captain Daniels will give a course in Orientation and Topography, as well as assist in riding instruction.

Captain Daniels was graduated from the University of Vermont with an A.B. degree in 1916, and entered the service immediately after graduation, with the grade of second lieutenant. In July of 1917 he went overseas with the First Division, and was soon raised to the rank of first lieutenant. He was first stationed at Coetquidan as an instructor in the Artillery School there, and later, with the grade of Captain, was sent to the General Headquarters of the Artillery Staff at Chaumont, where he served during the greater part of the war.

After the armistice was signed Captain Daniels was sent to Neuheusal, near Coblenz, on the Rhine, where he remained until January, when he was ordered back to this country with the rest of the First Division. He received his orders from Washington last week to report at the University.
