Guura of the District of Columbia was de- in its match with the 3d Corps Area team, which was fired on the range at Camp Meade, Md., last Saturd Some of the members of the local team seemed to have lost their keen eyes for a period, and thus brought the scores for the aggregate of the team down to the losing point, according to those who observed the match. Col. O. S. Eskridge, U. S. Infantry, in reporting the resuits of the match r superior in | to_headquarters of the local guard, | said: “In the match the 3d Corps Area team won against what would ap- pear to be a better team. The corps area team had never shot to- gether until the day of the match and was made up of such material as could be assembled without cost to the Government.. “'I have been requested by the mem- bers of the 8d Corps Area team to express thelr appreciation of the spirit of good sportsmanship shown by the District team. Teams from other States in the area did not compete. Col. Eskridge informed guard headquarters that a notice was sent to the Pennsylvania State rifie team, and it declined to enter a team, and that the Maryland National Guard did not answer the notice at all. The total score was 1,810 for the 3d Corps Area team and 1.799 for the National Guard team, 11 points short of the winner. The individual scores of the 3d Corps Area team follow: Capt. S. S§.

Orders bave been issued at head- quarters, op recommendatinn of the unit commander, making the follow- ing reductions in the 29th Military Police Company: Sergt. John W. Adams and Corp. Joseph B. Tennyson to privates. The same order carries the following promotions in the same command: Corps. Guy T. Bolton and Carl A. King to be duty sergeants. Plans are being made for the ex- pansion of the armory facilities of the 260th Coast Artillery at Water and O streets southwest. This organiza- tion has much heavy equipment as a part of its drill material, and in order to properly house and protect it it needs additional space. It now occu- pies the Naval Reserve Armory, a brick building. and has since put up on the adjoining property a large metal temporary building to house guns and tractors assigned to it. How- ever, this was insufficient and several weeks ago the Guard requested the assignment of edditional land to the north of these holdings. Maj. James A. O'Connor, District engineer, ll;lnu hinl;rmed Guard head- quarters that he has recommended the chief of Engineers of the Arxr:}? the granting of a revocable license to the Guard for the adjoining prop- erty extending approximately 70 feet north of the present holdings and from the building line on Water street to the water's edge in Washington channel. No communication has been received as yet indicating the approval of the chief of Engineers, but it is believed that this will come as a mat- ter of course, in view of the fact that it has been recommended by Maj. O’Connor, in charge of this property. It was said at Guard headquarters that as soon as the license is issued preparations will be made to erect there a large metal temporary build- ing, so that all of the equipment of this unit of the Guard will be prop- erly housed and protected. Many. data are being collected by the local National Guard on. the matter of armories which have been con- structed for various State units, and the costs and types, with a view to presenting them to the committees of Congress when the armory matter is brought up in the coming i There will be a strenuous effc force the issue at this session of the| armory question which has been hang- ing fire for many years here, and with the Guard, in each move it is re-| quired to make in obtaining rented armories, getting worse and worse quarters each time. President Coolidge has indicated that not familiar enough with local military conditions to say wheth. er a local armory project should be included in the proposed measure to| house the Government departments | here in public structures, and get them out of the costly rented struc tures they now are occupying. He is rather inclined, it was said by a White House spokesman, to leave the matter to some central body. It is the President’s idea regarding the public bulldings bill, it was said, that Congress should provide funds for a building program to cover a period of years, and leave to a central official body to ay what buildings should be started and erected first, rather than have specific buildings provided for. Of course, the local peo ple would rather see specific provision made for an armory =o that there would be some assurance that the had been reached, rather than to leave the matter to a body which might view the question from the standpoint of providing for the Government de- | partments before the local military taken e of. Failing to get pro vision made for it in such a public building, bill, it is likely that those pushing the project will fall back on the bill which was introduced at the last session of Congress, which spe cifically provided for the erection of an armory here, with the Federal Gov ernment paying a portion of the cost and the District part, in the s manner that apportionment is ma of the other District expenses. This easure failed of passage, and, courge, will have to be reintroduced at the coming session In the meantime, officials are look ing around for some vented quarters which they may occupy while await- ing the construction of & public arm ory if one is provided. Overtures have been made to local builders to see what they would put up a structure for, and the conditions under which they would rent it, and Government agencies are looking around for a building already erected which might be used by the Guard when it is forced to vacated its present quarters at 472 L street northwest, on June 30, next. It Is a serious problem with the Guard officials, and it is no nearer so. lution than the day when the organ- ization received notice that it could no longer retain the present structure after the present lease expires. Information has been collected on the Hunt Memorial Armory in Pitts. burgh, and pictures and been obtained from the Kuntz. The phot Guard headqus imposing structure | the units which occupy it.

Mr. Kuntz wrote that the cost of the structure was approxi mately $700,000, but added that the | cost of erecting a similar building at this time would no doubt be somewhat increased, as this structure was com pleted in 1921.
