SERVING COUNTRY
MANY SCHOOL OLD BOYS HAMILTON TECHNICAL COLLEGE More than 180 old boys of the Hamilton Technical College are at present mobilised with the various arms of the fighting forces, stated the principal of the school, Mr W. Fraser, at the meet ini' of the board cf managers last night. Many more former pupils were awaiting mobilisation. Difficulty had been experienced, however, in tracing all the boys and it was probable that the numbers were larger. Mr Fraser added that 60 of the number of former pupils serving were in the air force. Members of the board expressed the opinion that a record should be compiled of all old boys who enlisted.
