Kain of Company C will be appointed captain of the new company, but the selection of the first and second lieuten: ants has not been made yet. Therc is opportunity in this new company for former service men to be appointed to commissioned and non-commissioned grades. Capt. Boyce Richardson Bolton, re- cently appointed in the Medical Corps of the District of Columbia National Guard, reported for duty Tuesday evening and participated in_the examination of re- cruits. Capt. Bolton is a graduate of ‘Western High School, Emerson Insti- tute, George Washington University, and is a veteran of the world war. He served with the 79th Division, the 1ith Division, and the 17th Evacuation Hos- pital. He is at present resident physi- cian at the Episcopal Eye, Ear and ‘Throat Hospital. The death of Maj. Frank W. Holt, ordnance department, District of Co- lumbia National Guard, June 23, 1921, is keenly felt by all guardsmen and espe- cially those much interested in the shooting game. Maj. Holt directed the training of the local guard teams which participated in the national matches in 1919 and 1920. Aspirants for places on the rifle team the national matches are practicing at | NEWS OF THE NAVAL RESERVE | the target range, Camp Simms, Con- gress Heights, D. C., each Wednesday and Saturday afternoon. A bus leaves the armory Wednesday at 4:30 p. and Saturday at 1 p.m. Each bus pro- ceeds via the southwest corner of 7th street and Pennsylinia avenue north- west, leaving there fifteen minutes after leaving the armory. The following members of the guard, were discharged during the past weex on account of expiration of their en- listments, and_immediately re-enlisted: Elbert E. Richmond, Alfred E. John- son, jr., Phillip J. Austensen, Henry J. Cockreil, Edward J. White and Wil- lium J. Huhn. The following men enlisted in the guard during the past week: Charles V. Gessford, James H. Brown, Edward J. Moran, 'Arthur A. Chamberlain, Henry Ford Godfrey, David West, John™ H. Payne, Wallace F. Jewell. Jesse L. Smith and Sherman E. Gard- ner. Preparations are being made for the annual encampment of the Engineer Battalion, which is to take place from July 9 to July 23. The first week of the camp will be spent at the National Guard target range, Camp Simms. and the second week will be spent at the United States Army Engineering School, Camp Humphreys, Va. At both camps the men will be sheitered in barracks. Electric lights, running water, etc., will be available. The barracks assigned to the guard at Camp Humphreys are probably the most pleasant at that post. They are between the entrance to the camp and camp headquarters; within one square of the post exchange and the Liberty Theater and border on the railroad. All material for instruction in engi- neering is on hand at Camp Hum- phreys and no delay will be had after arrival at the camp. Formal application for the assign- ment of a vessel of the Eagle type as a training ship for the naval resery- ists of the District of Columbia was made by the commander of the local organization during the week. Upon the arrival of the document at the Navy Department, after passing through the military channels, it is expected that prompt consideration will be given the document, and that announcement of the assignment will be made during the week. Lieut. Commander William R. Hoe- fer, executive officer of the local or- ganization, is making preparations for going after the vessel, and plans to have a crew of officers and men made up ready to start as soon as authority for the trip is received There have been many applications from both officers and men to take the trip, and the executive officer will have a diplomatic problem to solve in making the selections First, only those officers and men who have been regular in their at- tendance at drills and have shown the necessary interest in maintaining their naval efficiency will be con- sidered, but as the vessel is of a smal] type and must be brought down in the outside waters from Ports- mouth, to the Chesapeake capes, it will require officers and men who have had considerable experience on seagoing vessels of the Navy during the war. There are any number of officers and men in the local battalion competent to handle the vessel on any cruise, and the selections will be made from those who would be able to handle the ship under any weather conditions she might face on the trip down the coast. As the complement of these ships is necessarily smal ery officer and man counts, and for trainins the here, the tr B necessitate the employment of men A Great : Stock of Auto = Tl 1 Because it's made from are made from. “Murco” Liquid Pa Washington, D.

The unnouncement that an Eagle boat would be sent here has served to increase the interest in the work of the local battalion, and Monday night there was a noticeable addi- tion to the number of officers and men who reported for drills. Commander Hoefer is planning a series of schools and drills to keep up the interest of those attending until the arrival of the ship here. It is known that interest in the work of the battalion has been hampered for some time by the failure to obtain a vessel. and now that the prospe receiving a ship are brighter the of- ficers in charge at the local naval ar- mory report that the interest of the men will continue to grow. The United States subchaser 210 is scheduled to leave her dock at 10 o'clock this morning for a practice cruise down the Potomac, returning to her dock tonight. Commander Hoe- fer. who will be in command of the vessel on this cruise, is having a list of drills and ship exercises prepared which will keep both the officers and men quite busy during the entire voyage. i Athree-day cruise of the vessel is being planned to begin Saturday aft- ernoon and ending Monday night. The vessel will leave her dock about 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon and cruise to the mouth of the Potomac, and into the Chesapeake bay, leaving that sec- tion in_time to reach her dock here the night of July 4. —_— MR.
