Students' Army Training Corps (S. A. T. C.)

Many of the Senior Class boys responded to the call of our country and as a result of the September, 1918 draft, entered the Army or S. A. T. C. (Students' Army Training Corps), leaving behind their sad classmates, a decimated football team lacking the school's departed experienced players, and cutting the Senior class size to less than half its original number.

The Students' Army Training Corps was the World War I antecedent to the U.S. military's Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC).
