With the regiment; will go 475 officers and enlisted | will travel in a special ar- \ train carrying four 12-inch , four eight-inch guns, onel jola car, cars and three kitchen cars. This is the first time a sp"cml‘ traveling kitchen has accompanied _—_—-——— | the artillery train to battle prac- tice. For the first time, too, trac-, tor-drawn guns will take part.| These are six-inch guns of the 51st coast artillery. Army officers from Washington, | Baltimore and Fortress Monros will observe the firing. From™#f 18o- | ated, wind-swept village, Fort Story, where the firing on May 27! will take place, will be tmnstormed‘ into the noisiest and most excit-| 2g of places. Big guns will blaze! forth fire and smoke across the ocean waters. | So that gun crews may receive | the maximum amount of training | the emplacing of the guns will| take place after sunset just as though actual warfare conditions obtained. The foundation platforms and braces will be dug in under the supervision of the gun command- | ers. The majority of these non- commissioned officers are veterans of the world war who had experi- ence with railway guns in France. The regiment will hold the first preliminary target practice with full charge ammunition May 10 at Fort- ress Monroe. Other target prac- tice will be May 13, 17 and 21. Battle practice will take placeI at Fort Story “May 27. The fixed| defenses of the fort, consisting of 16-inch mortars and 12-inch guns, will add their terrific uproar to that of the coast artillery. Of seven Knox trophies given an- nually for the gest gunnery with any gun in the entire coast artil- lery corps, the 52nd regiment has three in its possession. The bronze trophy perpetuates the name of Maj. Gen. Henry Knox known as the father of American artillery. He was chief of artillery of the revolutionary army and, after Washington, the first commander of the United States army. — v WALTER HAGEN | WINNER AGAIN MUIRFIELD, Scotland, May 10.| —Walter Hagen today won the open golf championship of Great Britain.
