Conant Hall will soon be taken over by the unique Army Chaplain School, it was announced yesterday. The group already is occupying Perkins Hall, the other of the two graduate dormitories on Oxford Street, for living quarters.
But five or six men have been forced to live in each suite, so, by adding Conant, chaplains can be housed three or four to a room. The new building will be put in use as soon as the University can make it available to the school.
Headquarters are in the Germanic Museum, while the Semitic Museum has been adapted as class rooms. Five classes have been graduated, a total of nearly 2,000 men. More and more of them come directly from the Army, where they have been on active duty for some time. Complete training, including chemical warfare, is being given the officers. Today Peter T. Garden, assistant director of the Red Cross Military and Naval Welfare Service for the New England area, will discuss "Services to the Armed Forces" as a part of the varied curriculum.
