Donala Walden, a New York _boy, who has returned from the French fghting front, where he served a year vith the American ambulance corps, will engineer the construction of a “dugout” at Sheepshead Bay as a fea- ture exhibit during the military en- campment and tournament which is to be held during May. Mr. Walden at his home, No. 294 Jufferson avenue, Brooklyn, Tuesday, displayed the plans for a dugout as constructed in the trenches for French officers. It calls for tons of stoel rails, heavy timbers shored with 200-pound rai,road iron. The floor is of concrete, while spacious sleeping and living quarters boast of many luxuries found ‘n well appointed homes. It is the intention of Mr. Walden to zive Amcrican military men a know- ledge of an important feature of trench warfare as it exists today in war- ridden Europe. During the war game at Sheepshead Fay miles of trencies will be dug, and the reproduction of the French safety one will be used by the soldiers to cecape the havoc of flying shrapnel during battle manoeuvr: Mr. Walden also will exhibit numer- cus trophies brought by him from the Buropean battlefields.
