C. Naval Reserve With the arrival of Spring and the approach of Summer, officers and men of the 1st Battalion, United States Naval Reserves of the District of Co- lumbia, be%tn t> feel seriously the handicap of not having an armory.or training station on the local water front. The present armory, an old commercial building, on Eleventh street southeast, in addition to being entirely unsuited and much too small for train- ing purposes, is located several blocks from the bank of the Anacostia River. ‘While the members of this Reserve do not have any training ship, neither do 'they have any kind of surface ‘water training equipment, and prac- tically all of their drilling must be done in an armory, under practically the same conditicns as a doughboy of g National Guard obtains his train- other Reserve organizations the country have their armories on the water fronts of their they lack a training vessel, they have numerous small boats and pulling boa Many are paid for by the States in which the organizations are located. This is done through provision by the State of a naval militia, for which the State 2EER5% two separais organiations. but e W0 separate orgal ns, but the officers in naval militia kept its training ship and | fiel numercus small boats, which were used d, during the Spring and Summer months for training purposes. It was but a few steps from the armory to the train- ing boats. Subsequent to the World War the Naval Militia was allowed th: use of this armory for several years and spent thousands of dollars in fitting the building and the dock up for service. ‘The National Guard then needed it for its newly formed Coest Artillery unit and the Reserves had to look elsewhere &nd the small building at the Washing- ton Navy Yard was assigned them. Former officers of the local R:serves, who have recently gone to other parts of the country, siarted a_movement to cbtain a specially built armory for the local Reservz battalion, and even had tentative plans drawn, but since their departure little has bzen done toward pressing the need. Th= present armory is situated too far from the river front for the Re- serve to have its own boats, bscause they would not bz watched as would bs possible if they had a building on the water's edge. Lieut. Comdr. R. S. Field, aide to the commandant of the Washington Navy ‘Yard, who left Wednesday for his new assignment, formally inspected the bat- talion Monday night. Comdr, Pield for- merly was inspector-instructor of the Columbia as | training ing the week. This school is 'Ehnned for the purpose of giving thorough in the preparation and serving of food to the enlisted personnel during the annual encampment. The school opened last Tuesday night, with in- struction on the mess in general.

E. J. Power, Troop E, 3d United States Cav- alry, stationed at Fort Myer, Va. ‘The following members of Battery C, 260th Coast Artillery, have been ordered dropped as deserters from the local Guard as of the dates following their respective names, they having failed to attend drill on or since these dates and all efforts to locate them having failed: Pvts. Gladwyn E. Bowen, December 4, 1930; Joseph E. Moore, October 9, iggg and Willlam G. Smith, August 10, Pvt. Angelo J. Vamino, Battery C. 260th Coast Artillery, has been ordered transferred from the active to the re- serve list of that organization on ac- count of business interference with the performance of military duty. ‘The number of organizations of the local Cuard mustering sufficient men to be classified as superior in attend- ance jumped 100 per cent last week as compared with the previous period, when four instead of the previous two organizations were put in this group. The State Detachment heads the list |in this group with 100 per cent at tendance, the others, with their re. spective percentages, being as follows 20th Division, Military Police Com- pany, 96.82; Medical Department De- | tachment, 121st Engineers, 94.73; band, | 121st Engineers, 90.62.
