SH dey. -- Ry an SE TR - WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 14, 1923 ARMY MEN LOOK OVER N. U. UNIT A board of officers from the General Staff in Washington will inspect the Northwestern university R. el unit May 9. This visit will determine whether or not Northwestern university should be classed as a "Distinguished College" by the War Department. This classification is the highest honor an R. O. T. C. unit can earn from the War Department and indicates a superior class of work. : The "Distinguished College" rating is seldom awarded to a university where military training is not compulsory, and the visit will be a tribute to Major Byrne and his assistants who have worked unceasingly to achieve this end. Wednesday, April 11, the Northwestern R. O. T. C. unit had its first outdoor parade of the season. The university band was on hand to provide the mili- tary marches. These weekly drills will continue during the school year.
