Reed College Service Flag

The Oregonian, 12 May 1918, page 19

Ninety former students and three faculty members of Reed College are serving in the United States Army and Navy and allied branches of service to date, and the number is believed to give the college a comparatively high standing in this regard, because it is so young an institution. The women of the college have already made a service flag to which stars are constantly being added.

President W. T. Foster has compiled a list of the men and in it are several who have won commissions of various grades. Not a few of them are already in France. The complete list to date, which does not include Professor Norman F. Colman and several students doing Y.M.C.A. work in the Army, is as follows:
