 Rock Landed in Kitchen.
 The field has been freed of large rocks by blasting during the day. The engineers drilled several large bould- CTS and set off dynamite charges.

One rock went through the tents in the headquarters section of the New York National Guard, one good sized piece went through kitchen where a cook was peeling potatoes. Although it missed him by foot the cook kept at his work, and when his attention was called to his escape he philosophfcally remarked that as it was all over he did not worry.
