Central Michigan men with
military service ahead of them
can choose between three programs—R.O.T.C., selective service, and reserve.
Under  the  R.O.T.C.   program,
a student is commissioned a second lieutenant into the reserve
when he graduates. He attends
R.O.T.C. classes while on campus
and one summer has a six-week
training course at a military post.
He then serves on active duty
for a period of six months or two
years.   He   may   request   either
choice.  The length of time required   for   active   reserve   is
longer in the six month program.
Army   R.O.T.C.   graduates,
graduating on or after May 1,
1958, and who desire to take
graduate work may apply for
a delay, not to exceed three
years  in reporting  for  active
duty.
Graduates cannot be commissioned prior to their 21st birthday
or after their 28th birthday.
The second choice available for
men who do not desire to take
R.O.T.C. is the draft. An individual may choose to wait to be
called according to his turn.
The third alternative for eligible young men is to join a reserve
unit of the service while in college.  In this program the indi-

Upon graduation he is called into
active duty for two years.
Annual Safety
Contest Points Up
Traffic Toff Rise
If 40,000 Americans were killed
in one catastrophe, the news
would rock the nation.
Yet, last year, 40,000 Americans
were killed and 1,500,000 were
injured on our streets and highways. Economic loss was more
than AVz billion dollars. At the
rate we are going so far this year
42,000 will be killed in traffic in
1957.
That's the picture of the present national traffic emergency
says the National Safety Council.
For this reason, the Lumbermen's Mutual Casualty Company
is sponsoring its tenth annual
safety contest. All students and
faculty members are urged to enter this contest as are college
newspapers in the interest of better highway safety. Come to LIFE
office for details of the contest.
