Everett. ir. the respective towns of the partici- nts and the scores sent to the Na- | lonal Rifle Association, where they are | fabulated. ; Plans will be instituted in the nea future for the dispatch of the various units of the Guard to their annual flield ing sites, the 3d Corps Area head- &x:mn at Baltimore having approved dates and places for the encamp- ments. As predicted in The Star, the bulk of the troops will go to Camp Al- bert C. Ritchie at Cascade, Md.,, and the others to Fort Monroe, Va. The 260th Battalion of Coast Artil- Jery will be the first unit to go to camp, the date for its field training having been set to begin July 27, next, and to end August 10. This organization is| pommanded by Maj. Walter W. Burns, | and is composed of the following units: | Medical Department Detachment, com manded by Capt. Stewart M. Grayson, Medical Corps; Headquarters Detach ment, commanded by First Lieut. Wil- Hiam J. Heale: Battery A, commanded by Capt. Louis M. Gosorn: Battery B, commanded by Capt. James D. Eggles- ton, and Battery C, commanded by Capt. Robert T. Daly. ‘This organization for a number of E‘“ has been going to the Chesapeake y post because of the spectal facili- ties which it requires for training. It was changed ‘some time ago into an anti-aircraft organization, and as the proposed site of the encampment is close to the Army air base at Langley | Field, Va., it is possible to obtain the use of planes for the towing of targets for the training of the gunners. A'so | there is at hand at the post the latest:| type of anti-aircraft equipment for the | use of the citizen soldiers, including the | werful searchlights and the sensitive Coast Artillery, 40.06, and Medical De- partment Detachment, 121st Engineers, 40.00. The following officers and men of | the local guard were detailed to inaug- ural headquarters for three days prior to the inauguration, it was announced | | at headquarters: Second Lieut. Samuel W. Marsh, Company E, 121st Engi- neers; Second Lieut. Joseph F. Fitz- gerald, Headquarters and Service Com- pany, 121st Engineers; First Lieut. R. P. Mulligan, Battery A. 260th Coast Ar- tille: Staff Sergt. Albert J. King, Headquarters and Service Company, 1218t Engineers, and Corpl. Melvin H. Walls, Battery B, 260th Coast Artillery. Orders have been issued' by the brigade headquarters prohibiting the wearing of the biue uniform by enlisted men or a dress or full dress blue! uniform by officers of the National | Guard of the District of Columbia. It was expiainod at the headquarters that | no blue uniforms have been issued for the cnlisted personnel, and the order was issued to discourage men from buying them out of their private funds, as it is understood that some changes are contemplated. It was said also that some of the officers have been dis- cussing the purchase of these uniforms for the purpose of wearing them at military social functions, but the order will even prohibit their donning them at these, it was said. ‘The local armory of the National Guard, at North Capitol and D streets, was used for the quartering of a com- pany from the Maine National Guard, which came to participate in the Hoover inaugural ceremonies. The troops occupied the main lobby for a period of three days. ‘The Richmond Light Infantry Blues, which ad planned to use the quarters of the ocal Guard, were quartered in the State, War and Navy Building, because of the fact that the local Armory was not suited to furnish sleeping accom- modations for such a large body of troops. Because of its possible effect on the armory facllities for the District Na- tional Guard, officials will begin a study this week of the measyre p by Congress during its last hours, provid- ing for the improvement of the area between the Capitol grounds and the Union Station as a part of the former. ‘The local Guard now ocmgies‘ one of the Government hotel buildings as an armory, and whi'e the money has not been appropriated for the beginning of the work, nevertheless, it will finally contemplate the razing of the Govern- ment hot2l buildings. In that event listening devices to assist in locating | planes in the air even under cover of | darkness. | This organisation will return to the | city just prior to the departure of the other troops for the camp site north of Washington in the Blue Ridge Moun-\ The units which will go to cump! Ritchie are as follows: Headquarters | 29th Division Staff, commanded by Maj | Gen. Anton Stephan; Special Troops, | 20th ‘Division, commanded by Maj. Ed- | ward H. Grove, Infantry; Headquarters | Detachment, 20th Division, commanded by Capt. Hobart T. Walker, Infantr: 20th Military Police Company, col manded by Second Lieut. William T. Roy, Infantry; 121st Regiment of En commanded by Col. John W. n, composed of the following Medical Department Detachment, | commanded by Capt. Edward C. Morse, | Medical Corps; Headquarters and Serv- {ce Company, commanded by Capt. Water S. Welsh, Engineers; band, com- | manded by Meyer Goldman, warrant officer; Company A, commanded by | Capt. George L. Eyans; Company B, | gommanded by Capt. William I. Mu- Shake; Company. C, commanded by Capt. William F. Jorgensen; Company commended by Capt. Samuel R. Tur- \, .commanded: by Capt. rge W. Johns;, Company A, 372d In- “mlry, commanded by Capt. Arthur C. fewman. » : The annouficement that the main body of troops would return to Cascade gaec with much favor in the organiza- fion, particularly in the Engineer regi- ment, where there was some fear that this unit might have to again to | Fort Humphreys, Va. But the resuits at Camp Ritchie were so beneficial from a fraining standpoint last year that it was the hope of practically every mem- ber that the organization would be per- mitted by the 3d Corps Headquarters to return. The site is ideal for training | Engineers as well as Infantry, and | the recreation” facilities for the men, when off duty, are unsurpassed. It is| enough from Washington that the cannot get home in the few hours the evening they have for liberty, On | site are two jarge lakes where the men may boat and swim, and on which the Engineers can build pontoon bridges. | Te is also a large clubhouse. In | ition each of the large 1 are so equip) that the tables | and benches can folded back and | changed into club quarters for each | company. Each has an open fireplace, and there is plenty of wood available to make the places inviting on chilly, rainy nights. They also are electrically lighted. The above units will leave Washing- ! ton on August 11, probably by bus. It | is the hope of the officials that bus | rtation can be arranged, but the vement of the troops has to be indled by public bidding, and if the | Tailroads bid lower, then the force must | ,o that way. But the officials have ound that the bus -movement is-very satisfactory, as the men may be loaded ht at the doors of the armory and | ivered to their respective company | mu in camp. It does not involve any march on either er.d of the line. J , In addition to the wide range of rec- Feation facilities provided on the camp site, there are nearby several Summer Tesorts which last year proved very at- tractive to the men after their day’s || work was done. It also was pointed out that this year the Engineers will be able to enjoy some of the facilities | Wwhich they installed in the camp last | year, such as the building of concrete | teps on the terraces and the improve- nent of the roadways. Some of their | engineering ability also probably will e used again this year in the installa- | tlon of other camp improvements, ¢ The Medical Department Detachment, £260th Coast Artillery, headed the list Hn tae matter of attendance last week, £100 per cent of its enrolled personnel ing present for drill. The reports to deadcuarters show a general improve fment in the attendance record through “the Guard, only three organiza- lpns being fepoftet as unsatisfactory or below, and this s said to be very easing to the Cuard officers, who ave been striving_‘or months to im- fprove the attendan.e averages, handi- feapped as they ate by the lack of suit- iable armory facilitics, which ordinarily ttract Guardsmen con drill nig! 3 Four other grganizations of the Guard 15| has been put to death humanely that | great-granddaughter. the Guard would have to go elsewhere. Congress also failed again to take any definite steps to make provision for the local citizen soldiery by giving it a suit. able place in which to take its tri ing, although the efforts of the National Guard Association of the United States were thrown behind the measure which would have given it the use of the Pen- sion Office Building, in Judiciary Square, now occupied by the General Account- ing Office. The latter is to be taken care of in the so-called Avenue trian- gle of Federal building construction. ' The present quarters were assigned to the Guard by the Public Buildings Com- mission, following the rendering of an opinion by the Attorney General that the local Guard was such a Federal ac- tivity that that commission must find it a home, While the duty has been placed on the buildings commissicn, nevertheless the ‘guard officials will do all in their power to assist in getting some provision made for a building. From year to year it has been forced to occupy quarters entirely unsuitable for the training of troops, and the Govern- ment hotel buildings are the worst that have ever been furnished. But the or- ganization was practically forced to this structure, because of the fact that a suitable private building could not be obtained within the rental al- lowance of-Con . even 5o small it no private bullder could be found who would risk an in- ‘The amount wi vestment in a large building, under a chance that the Government would keep it for this purpose over s period of years.
