Eton Takes Second Place
In my note on the Duke of Gloucester's inspection of the Eton O.T.C. recently. I stated my bellef that Eton was the first public school to establish a Cadet Corps, writes ន Home correspondent. This has not passed unchallenged.
Mr. Christopher Hughes. who commands the Marlborough College O.T.C., puts forward a claim for that Corps. So far as his records go, he says, the first to be enrolled in it was F. E. Thompson on Aug. 18. 1860.
Hls, bellef, however, that "Marl- borough's claim has not been dis- puted" is less easy to substantiate than my own. Certainly Rossa!- tians, Individually and collectively. will have none of it.
"A letter bearing the signatures of ten of the Rossall OT C.'s non- commissioned officers assures me that theirs is the oldest school 'Corps, though they generously ad- mit the probability that the idea originated at Eton.

ROSSALL. 1; ETON, 2 The fact seem to be that the proposals for the Eton Corps were. made in January, 1860, and that by the end of the Easter half a corsiderable number of boys were enrolled.
The Rossall Corps, however, was fully enrolled on February 1 that year. So it seems that Russall beat Elon by a short head and that Marlborough was third.
The Eton Corps has the distinc- tion of being the first to parade before a member of the Royal family. It was reviewed by Queen Victoria and the Prince Consort on November 29, 1881-the Prince's last appearance in public.
