With the possible exception of Miss Winifred Brown, noted British girl pilct, who won the King’s cup race in Eng- land a few weeks ago. the foreign guests will not participate in the race events. They will, however, give demonstration flights to show the latest arerial acro- batics and will fly the speed courses in foreign-built planes. It is rumored at Chicago that Great Britain is planning to send at least two members of the Schneider trophy team, which has upset all worid speed records, pushing the speed at which man has traveled up to the rate of six miles per minute. One of the older British Schneider planes also may be sent over to fly demonstration heats at Chicago, Acrobats to Come.

Va., where it arrived last Sunday morning. This organization, four bat- teries sirong, is training with the anti- aircraft_equipment at the post which guards the entrance to Chesapeake Bay, as the local outfit is organized for ac- | tion against airplanes, being equipped | with large guns and searchlights, as| well as machine guns for anti-air work. | Maj. Walter W. Burns is commander | of the organization, which is the second | largest unit in the local Guard. During their stay at the Virginia post bnlh} officers and men are given ample time, after their strenuous soldier training, to | make sightseeing trips in the surround- | ing country and to visit the numerous Summer resorts with which the sec- | tion is dotted. These troops are scheduled to com- | plete their field training next Saturday and are expected to arrive here to be placed on an inactive status for an- | other year nmext Sunday morning. The largest unit of the local Guard, | the 121st Regiment of Engineers, will leave here at 10 o'clock this morning for Fort Humphreys, Va, the eastern | Engineer station of the Army, for two | weeks of fleld training. This organiza- | tion is commanded by Col. Jobn W. Oehmann. During this period in the camp the officers and men will be put through an_intensive training period, during, which they will construct field fortifications, build bridges on land and on ‘water, construct roads and engage in demolition work, the latter to train them in effectively retarding the pur- suit of an imaginary enemy. For several days during the latter part of the week, motor truck trains, in charge of commissioned and enlisted personnel, have been running regular trips between the storehouse here and the camp site at Fort Humphreys, car- tember, Col. Robert Yancey Rhea has re- mwd to corps headquarters after a r of foreign shore duty in Nica- ragua. Col.

Ramsey, command- ing the Marine barracks at the local navy yard, has been granted 60 days' leave. Col. Ramsey has been compiling his service memoirs for a number of years and it is stated that same will soon appear in book form. Capt. Jonas H. Platt, aide at corps headquarters and in charge of corps headquarters publicity, will cover the activities of the entrants from the Ma- rine Corps who will participate in the annual meet of the National Rifle Asso- clation, which will again be held this year at Camp Perry, Ohio. Capt. Platt’s tour of duty at corps headquarters is expected to terminate in the early Fall and in all probability he will be assigned to Quantico for duty and may possibly , be detalled to a course at the Marine Corps schools. Marine Corps veterans of the World ‘War who carried Government insurance in amounts up to the maximum author- ized ($10,000) and who received injuries incident to active participation in said war or who, while carrying war risk in- surance, became otherwise disabled in- cidental to the service, and who now re- celve pensions or are now in a retired status, or even civilian status, are being advised to communicate with the Vet- eran Marine Corps Legion, which has engaged legal talent to represent all veterans of the corps, with the object of claiming either whole or part compen- sation under policies of Government in- surance carried by the veterans.

Farly today the armory at Sixth street and Pennsylvania avenue Was agog with activity of the citizen sol- diers, recruits and veterans, preparing for the departure for the field maneu- vers. There is no long march facing the trbops incidental to the departure for camp. The busses which are to con- vey them to the post are to be loaded on the Avenue, four seats being pro- vided for each group of three men, the additional space being required for the deposit of the packs and guns which the men must carry with them. Once in the busses they will be taken directly to their camp site, where they will e disembarked right in their company streets, The principal activity at the camp to- day will be the preparation of the tem- porary homes which they will occupy during their two weeks of training. After the arduous task of making camp is completed, the men will be given a brief respite before starting on the heavy training duties early tomorrow morning, when the bugler’s reveille will rout them out of their bunks several hours before many of them usually arise. In preparation for the departure '>- day the recruiting officers were be- sieged last Tuesday night during the| regular drill pericd of scores of youths seeking to take their “vacations” in the field. Maj. George J. Allen, chief sur- geon and director of the newly estab- lished medical center in the local armory, was kept busy for several hours putting the applicants through stiff physical examinations to _determine their fitness for field duty. The medi- cal center quarters were crowded with| men from the time assembly was sounded until several hours after the retreat had been sounded for the regu- lar drill period. After the formal phys- ical examinations, it was necessary for the new men to take the anti-typhoid serums, and these were administered by Maj. Allen after the physical exami- nations had been completed. The most pleasing information which has been circulated in connection with this encampment is that it falls at the end of the newly established quarterly armory drill pay period, and it was said at the brigade headquarters that the checks for the last quarter would be paid to the personnel while it is in ‘exas financier, who was serjously in- Jured in an accident that cost the life of his wife last night, was reported improved today.
