No Choice Given Men in Transfers.

Steps to prevent a food of applica-

with some friend. or who prefer, for
no reason in particular, another arm
of the service than that in which they
are, have been taken by the division
commander at Camp Custer. These
transfers, which has just been given
out
No man may be transferred from
one unit to another unless some good
service results, the order states, mere
individual preferences being ignored
The order was issued because the re-

were simply attached" to that organ
ization for duty, actually going on the
rolls of the one with which they were
not serving. Now these men can be
properly assigned.
Each unit has a right to a certain
number of men of various callings,
and finally the division will be bal
anced in this respect. The territorial
idea will be adhered to as far as pos.
sible, but the efficiency of the division
will be placed before everything else.

Fewer Visitors at Custer.


Camp Custer is losing its prestige
as mecca for sightseers, and rela-
tives and friends of selected men
serving IN the Eighty-fifth division
and is becoming each day more like
the typical and desirable military
camp.
Perfectly lucid reasons are at hand
for the changes. No such military
venture had ever been housed within
the boundary lines OF the state and
like all new and well-advertised spec
tacles. many people were curious to
view it. Thousands have come. seen
and gone and to those who could not
come. have carried satisfying infor-
nation.
When the selected men first came,
passes were given sparingly. There
was but one way for visits to be
conducted and that was by relatives
coming here on the visiting days.
Probably 80 per cent of the men In
camp have been visited and although
there are still many family reunions
in camp Sundays, they are gradually
decreasing.
That is explained further by the
fact that passes are more easily OBJ.

found more congenial for the week

AUTO RACE DRIVERS
JOIN GRAND CIRCUIT
May Mean Withdrawal From
Control of American Auto
mobile Association.

Signing of contracts by twenty-nine
racing drivers for their exclusive APP
rearanoe in the 1918 season with
Charles w. Johnson, president of the
Uniontown, Pa, speedway. as repre-
sentative of the National Grand Cir
cult of American Speedways, is be-
lieved to be the opening wedge in q
project which may mean the ultimate
withdrawal by the American Automo-
bile association from control of auto
racing. Among those signed are Cas-
ton. Chevrolet. Eddie Hearre, Ira Vail
Pete Henderson, Tommy Milton, jim
my Meyer, Andy Burt and Neil Wha-
len.
Sentiment Is strong for tho new or
ganization and 1t 10 believed that vir-
tually all of the drivers will become
parties to the contract before the
races there last week. Merging of the
principal speedways Of the country
under the control of the National
Grand Circuit association. instead OF
under the A. A. A. rules. is the mos,
daring departure Of the e-plan.
The controlling body Will seek to CO.
operate with the A. A. A. wherever
deemed advisable. but reserves the
right to amend or restrict any rules OF
that organization.
