This is open to all students of M. S. and T. who are interested in mounted formations and horsemanship. Every Saturday morning during the Autumn and Spring Quarters the battery meets to put into practice some of the military maneuvers the cadets have been theorizing on in their class work. The purpose of the Sunrise Legion is not altogether one of military training. The battery has its social side also and the members have combined its more serious endeavors with those of a club. Cadet Lieutenant Colonel D. Kenneth Reimers is president of the organization, and has been very successful in his efforts to arouse interest in the club's activities. Page IS |
