All enrolees will be fully equipped with government material, which includes rifles, ammunition and clothing. While it is not expected that drilling will be made an undue hardship, it is expected that the Guards will be able to assume some resemblance to military shape to facilitate infantry movement, he stated Enroll by Wednesday Every effort is being made to have the enrollment as complete as pos- sible by Wednesday to facilitate the distribution of rifles and am- munition by Thursday evening, ac- cording to Dr. Freeburger. All those enrolled by that time will be issued rifles and ammunition following the *alert” in the Shattuck Building lo- cation formerly occupied by the Halvorsen store. A complete list of clothing is not yet available but will be issued as soon as it is re- ceived, he said.
