Yesterday the soldiers set up their two-man shelters on the sand floor of the field house in Evergreen Bowl. An officers’ tent, 24 shelter tents, a camp kitchen, and an in- firmary, make up the canvas vil- lage occupled by Company E The men carried a light pack on their march to Mendenhall Glaciér, Lena Beach, and the rifle range, which contained only a raincoat and mess kit. A Springfield rifle and bayonet, and a canteen and cup, completed the marching equip- ment.

Severson stated that in two! years, he has driven his car 25,000 miles on the fifty miles of road available around Chilkoot Barracks.' He remarked that he had left in- structions to have the. wheels of his car painted “fire-chief red” when he embarked on the For- nance for the present maneuvers, to assist interested persons in dis- tinguishing tetween . his car and that of Lt. L. V. Castner. He said that Lt. Castper ‘was often follow- ed by mistake due to .a similarity in the appearance of his and the ergeant’s cars. Sergt. Severson declared that the feud between himself and Cook F. W. Redding which resulted from the refusal of the cook to feed the sergcanl after he had scored a ‘miss” on a Company E corporal while in charge of scoring at Lhe inter-service rifle match Sa!urdsy.‘ has been discontinued. In support| of his statement the Sergeant dis- patched a supply of Bull Durham to Cook Redding at Evergreen Bowl by special messenger, Sergt. Severson weights anywhere between 290 and 310 pounds and Cecok Redding said this “hulk” caused Severson to “miss” at target| tion- in the Guy L. Smith Drum“““fl But it is all O. K. now. Store.
