The Grizzly B attalion of the Reserve Officers’ T rain ing Corps was o rganized here in 1910 under the N ational Defense Act of 1916. The general object of the courses of instruction is to qualify s tudents for positions of leadership in time of national emergency.
Since 1028 the Grizzly B atta lion has had the d istinction of being allowed to wear the blue s ta r on the uniform sleeve designating “excellent ra tin g .”
A new indoor firing range has greatly aided the departm ent in the instruction of riflery. In the basic courses drill has been minimized and m ilitary history, organization and cu rren t in ternational situations added. In the advanced classes a wider range of studies than in previous years is allowed. Men who do not prefer to take more than the required two year course receive certificates of proficiency for non-commissioned officer grades. In the advanced u n it 12 studen t officers are commissioned annually as second lieu tenants in the Officers’ Reserve Corps.
The departm ent recently received new serge uniform s to replace those of melton cloth form erly used.
Besides its regular instruction the departm ent provides policing for a th letic contests, m ilitary parades and the promotion of riflery.

The Kaimin made its firs t appearance 36 years ago as a literary magazine under the auspices of the old Press Club. I t became a semi-weekly in 1908 and was purchased two years later by the A. S. U. M. Developing steadily with the growth of the school and always upholding high standards of journalistic service the Kaimin is rated w ith the best of co liege papers.
Tho Kaimin is entirely w ithin the hands of students who prepare both advertising and news copy. Since February 20, 1931 it has been printed in its own shop on equipm ent donated by companies and newspapers throughout the state. I t has the distinction of never having had a late issue. The circulation is about fifteen hundred.
J . Stanley Ilill, Sand Coulee, has been editor and Robert Jones, Missoula, business m anager for the 1933-1934 Kaimin.

S tarted in 1919 as a student enterprise, The F ro n tie r became in 1927 a regional magazine representing the whole N orthw est country and w ith the absorption of the M idland in 1933, a definitely national magazine. Known now from coast to coast as the F ro n tie r and M idland, th is magazine, edited by H. G. M erriam has achieved high d istinction for the excellence of its fiction and general content. I t is today a powerful medium guiding and shaping the new and significant cu rren ts in American literatu re . Dealing constantly with the new, it does not forget the past. Each issue carries some authentic and hitherto unpublished historical document of the old West. I ts stories have been consistently s ta rred and re-printed by Edw in O'Brien, official Am erican short story rater.
As The F ro n tie r the magazine bu ilt its reputation as a medium for the colorful regional l ite ra tu re of th is Northwest country. The deeds of trap p e r and rancher, Indian and pioneer, cowpuncher and lumber jack lived again in its pages. More rational now in outlook, yet still feeling its roots in Rocky mountain soil, The F ro n tie r and Midland now counts its contributors from every section of the United States, from Canada and from E n g la n d ; while its subscription list reaches m any foreign countries. Associate editors are Grace Stone Coates of M artinsdale, M ontana and Brassil F itzgerald, professor of English a t the S tate University.
