Student chapel speaker urges stronger preparedness and cadet training
Washington guest Colonel Smith told Chapel pupils that the United States spent more money and men in wars than the enemy, urging more K O T C training for boys. He noted wartime costs and called for broader protection organizations. Alpine High School pupils then heard Aynesworth of Sul Rows College recount Stevenson’s The Bottle Imp, praised the speaker, and thanked the Manual Training Department and Mr Kennedy for a new library book case funded by the Better Speech program proceeds.
