FIRST SERGT. Russell KINTER
Lcmoyne, Pa, Feb. II. - There is
strong possibility of the West Shore
being represented in the United States
military service by West Shore Ma
chine Gun Company.
The only action to bring about this
move is the enlistment OF twenty-slX
West Shore men in the Machine Gun
company of the Eighth Pennsylvania
infantry, now encamped along the
border, according TO Il communication
from Captain Ralph &. Crow, OF Le-
moyne, VINO Is head OF this company.
In letter TO prominent resident
or the borough, Captain Crow stated
that the commanding officer of the
regiment approves plan for making
the gun company a West Shore or
ganizatlon PROVIDED q sufficient num-
Der OF young men enlist. He requests
Lemoyne residents through this letter
to encourage W est Shore lads to en-
list.
His letter in part follows: "As the
crisis in the German situation may
emu in declaration of war, which
Will probably keep the troops now in
service either on the border or on
DUTY some place in the country, there
is a good chance Tor twenty-slX men
from Lemoyne and other West Shore
towns to get into the machine gun
company. The company was organ
lied by an officer from the West
shore and 1T is the desire of the head
or the company to make it a West
shore organization. For this reason
he should have d majority of the men
from that territory"
The regimental commander states that
all other West Shore lads, with Ser
geant Kinter, are making good.
