Morning News-AII of the Detail

Orders to Be Issued.
Col. George T. Cam, inspector gen
eral of rife practice, has officially nam
ed the members of the detail from
which the team will be selected to rep
resente Georgia in the national trophy
match at Sea Grit. The names are the
same as those already published in the
as those already published in the
Morning News.
The names of the team have not yet
been made known, and Col. Cam said
yesterday that the men would not be
selected until after the practice at
Sea Grit on Monday. 1t is, however,
most probable that the personnel of
the team will be Col G. T. Cam,
Capt. F. w. Garden. Capt. H. C.
Konemann, Capt. H. E. Wilson, Capt.
]. C. Postell, Capt. w. G. Austin,
Capt. w. B. Stephens, Lieut.. L. J.
Daniel of Atlanta, Lieut.. r. J. Travis,
Sergt. Arminius Wright of Atlanta,
Private f. C. Wilson and Private r.
c. Fetzer. The alternates will prob
ably be Sergt. ]. K. Hazelhurst, Capt.
w. P. Wheeler of Macon Capt. r. G.
Hazelhurst of Macon, Lieut.. C. c.
Smith of Atlanta, Sergt. F. w. Tyler
of Waynesboro Corpl. A. D. Kent.
Lieut.. Tunno has not vet decided
whether he can make the trip. In
the event he goes he will probably oc-
cupy a place on the team. Capt. w.
B. Stephens may not be able to go,
though he will go if possible. In the
event he does not go it is probable
that Sergt. Hazelhurst will be put on
the team. There is little doubt, how
ever, that the team which represents
Georgia will be about the one here
given. The fact that the Savannah
marksmen have had an opportunity to
practice at the long range is RESPONSE
BILE for the selection of so many OF
them on the team.
WaynesbOrO's Representative.
Sergt F. w. Tyler, who made such
an excellent showing in the recent
state shoot when he made the highest
individual score in the shoot, will ar
rive this morning to participate in the
practice at Avondale range. His ex-
penses to Savannah are paid by the
members of his company, all of whom
are enthusiastic over rifle practice and
DESTROYS of seeing Sergt. Tyler win
place on the team. If his shooting at
the long ranges justifies it, he will be
put on the team.
The action of the Waynesboro peo-
pie in responding so quickly to Col
Cams request for men to come to Sa-
vannah and practice on the long
ranges was generally commended yes
terday. The notification appeared In
the Morning News, and a few hours
after the paper reached Waynesboro,
it had been decided to send Sergt. Ty-
Ter to Savannah.
The 800, 900 and 1,000-yard targets
will be up all day long each day until
the team leaves for Sea Girt, and all
those who have the opportunity to so
out for practice during the day are
requested to do so. Upon the practice
secured to-day and tomorrow de-
ponds the showing which Georgia win
make in the match, and if the weather
is not very bad, Col, Cam desires
full attendance of the men.
Orders for the Shoot.
The practice yesterday was quite an
Improvement over the one on the day
previous, and the improvement each
day shows the men how necessary it is
for them to spend all of their spare
time in practice. In the shooting yes
terday Capt. Konemann led the scores
while Capt. Fred Garden was a close
second.
Col. Cam prepared his orders yester-
day and forwarded them to Atlanta.
In these orders the name of the detail
is suggested to the Governor and mat
tiers of detail are determined. The
names of those who will act as team
captain, commissary, quartermaster
and ordnance officers are not given, the
selection being left to the inspector
general. AS stated in the Morning
News the service uniform is pre-
scribed for the shoot, while the men
are ordered to take along their dress
uniforms
The men will leave on the City of
Memphis Friday afternoon at 3
O'Clock. They will arrive at Sea Girt
range on Monday morning, and the or
ders will prescribe that every member
of the detail report to Col. Cam by
noon of that day. 1t is probable that
the team will have an opportunity for
several hours practice on Monday aft
ernoon, the match not beginning until
Tuesday
