ENTIRE QUOTA GOES TO DEVENS

McCAIN'S TELEGRAM INTERPRETS RULING.--ORDERS READY AFTER NINE.

In accordance with the telegram received as above, members of the University R. O. T. C. originally designated as Class A, O. T. C. candidates, will be obliged to report at Camp Devens for training in Class B quota, and not at Camp Grant, as first ordered. Upon completing the three months' course at Devens, instead of receiving second lieutenancies immediately, the men will serve as enlisted men until suitable vacancies occur.

Certificates for all O. T. C. candidates will be ready at the military office this morning shortly after 9 o'clock. Men who have received orders to report at Camp Grant as Class A should return them immediately, and in their place secure those sending them to Camp Devens.

Although the above order is contrary to the original understanding with the War Department in regard to graduates of Military Science 2, it is not probable that it will be so interpreted as to allow the original Quota A to go to Camp Grant, according to opinions expressed last night by Major Flynn and President Lowell.
