NEW MEXICO MILITARY INSTITUTE No. 12 Roswell, New Mexico March 16, 1935 Tactical Problem Scheduled For The First Week In April Four Machine Gun Crews Will See Action This Year Major Coiner announced this week that the annual spring tactical prob­lem in which the whole cadet corps will take part has been scheduled for the first week in April. On this maneuver one half of the cadet corps will constitute a Red force and the other half will be the Blues. One force will consist of nearly all mount­ed troops, while the opposing force will have only small mounted patrols for reconnoitering purposes. Blank cartridges will be issued to all troops when they reach the field. The problem will be held at the same place it was held last year—about four or five miles southwest of Ros­well— and will be conducted in nearly the same manner. After the battle has been decided, all troops will assemble, picket their mounts, stack arms, and a barbecue dinner will be served on the field. After dinner the regiment will return to barracks, and in all probability there will be a general town permit for the rest of the afternoon. All dis­mounted troops will ride to and from the scene of action in trucks. Capt. Horgan’s Novel Receives High Praise Captain Paul Horgan’s latest book, “No Quarter Given”, has received much favorable comment even though it has been on the market for only a short time. It appears destined for even greater heights than his first work, “The Fault of Angels”, which won the Harper Prize last year.

apt. Horgan’s Novel Receives High Praise Captain Paul Horgan’s latest book, “No Quarter Given”, has received much favorable comment even though it has been on the market for only a short time. It appears destined for even greater heights than his first work, “The Fault of Angels”, which won the Harper Prize last year. In a review in the New York Times the book is given considerable praise, with special commendation directed toward Captain Horgan’s ability in characterization and story­telling. The review praises the auth­or’s writing ability as well as his present work, indicating broad and high-reaching possibilities, far above present achievements, for the future.

Although the crowd was not large, a good time was had by those present, for they great­ly enoyed the many special numbers played by the orchestra for that oc­casion. Napier was well pleased with the results of this first dance and plans to sponsor a series of weekly Monday dances. Another cadet dance will be "held in the Post Exchange next Monday afternoon.

time was had by those present, for they great­ly enoyed the many special numbers played by the orchestra for that oc­casion. Napier was well pleased with the results of this first dance and plans to sponsor a series of weekly Monday dances. Another cadet dance will be "held in the Post Exchange next Monday afternoon. The orchestra has been practicing diligently during this past week and expects to play some new numbers at this next Monday dance. Another added attraction is the fact that dance tickets have been reduced to forty cents a couple and to fifty cents for stags. With this cut in rates and with the special numbers which will be rendered, and as the dance will be one of the best, Napier is expecting quite a large crowd next Monday. A little cooperation from the cadet corps will promote the continuance of these dances. Cambridge Graduate Will Speak Before The Relations Club Mr. Edwards Nicholas, graduate of Cambridge University in England, will speak before the International Relations Club at its next meeting which will be held next Wednesday night after studyhall in the Library. Mr. Nicholas, who has lived in Eng­land for a number of years studying the economical problems of that coun­try, will speak on “The Problems Confronting Great Britain.” As Mr. Nicholas is a very forceful and inter­esting speaker, and as he will speak upon a subject which he has spent years of study, every cadet is urged to hear his message. In all probability another large crowd from Roswell will be at the meeting.

In all probability another large crowd from Roswell will be at the meeting. The program originally planned for the next Wesdnesday’s meeting has been postponed until the follow­ing meeting on April the third. On that date Freed, Lewis, McCarty, and Alexander, D., will present the first of a series of debates upon inter­national questions. Rifle Team to Fire Hearst Match Sunday With the William Randolph Hearst Match to be fired in the week of March 16, activity in the gallery is now at its highest pitch. Members of the team have been practicing daily throughout the week and each man is determined to be at his best for the match. Certainly it is the most im­portant one of the year and a good showing is naturally hoped for. Chances of winning are not bright, as the Institute has recently been transferred from the Essential Mili­tary Schools Division to the Senior College and University’s Division. However, if certain men of the team do happen to shoot at their best, there is a good possibility for the score to place. This month will see the closing of one of the most successful seasons the Institute Rifle Team has ever had.
