SAND SHOTS FROM
18th REGIMENT
Franklin Man Supervises Vote
Of Regiment. Band Concert on
Sunday Splendid Success.

Frank H. Iemcke, OF Franklin, Pa, ar
rived in camp on Sunday afternoon and
Immediately set the wheels in motion for
taking the soldier vote Of the entire 18th
Regiment on Tuesday. He acknowledged
that the task Of counting the ballots was
going to be a difficult one, in view of
the fact that every soldiers had to write
III the name Of the candidates for whom
he is voting. The Franklin man, who is
mechanical superintendent OF the Even
ing News Printing Company, is delighted
with Camp Hancock, and only regrets
taslt his visit among the boys is to be
so short. His report must be in Harris
burg within ten days after the election.
Another of those splendid Sunday aft
ernoon band concerts, for which the 18th
Ragimental Band Is fast becoming noted,
drew large crowd TO Pennsylvania ave-
nue., within the proximity Of regimental
headquarters, between and q o'clock
last Sunday. Scores of Aagustans We're
present and literally applauded the band
buys for their fine rendition of the eight
or nine numbers on the program At
Colonel Richards suggestion, clerks in
the office prepared typewriter programs
for the visitors, a courtesy that was
greatly appreciated. John Surra, noted
scored another successful hit, with Good
Bye Broadway, Hello France"
