Leading Man of "Climbers"
Accepts Position as

Instructor of
Elocution
Emery Frazler has left school and
has gone to Camp Zachary Taylor,
Louisville, as head Instructor of Elocution in vocational work of the camp.
In the department there is to be a
maximum number of fifteen students
and more may be added if he so desires, as he is to have complete control of the entire department.
At Camp Taylor the government
has started departments of higher
education for the men still in service,
such as Law, Engineering, Agriculture and Elocution. Mr. Frazier has
been placed as head instructor to take
charge of the Department of Elocu
tion.
This is a continuation of the work
which he accomplished while In college, and the beginning of his future
career In dramatics. A brilliant fu
ture is before him, and his many
friends hope that he will continue
playing the leading role in "The
Climbers" towards success.
