These 65 members of units known to have been in contact with Germans on the French front, arrived recently at an Atlantic port and were sent directly to the local hospital.
 Four of them are suffering from wounds and were probably under fire in one Of the engagements between Amer ican patrols and German raiding parties. None of their wounds, however, are se- rious.
 George H. Bishop infantry, and Manuel Sanders, field artillery, are suffering from gunshot wounds, and Andrew J. Hensey, infantry, has a shell wound in his left foot.
 Son Williams, colored a member of
 stevedore regiment is the most se- riously injured of the arrivals. He lost both feet supposedly in an accident. as he has not been on the battle front, and Thomas Arthur, regiment of engineers has both legs broken, also SUD- posedly accidental, although his regi- ment clashed with the enemy
 Ten other members of the contingent have been in service abroad, but have been in America for sometime. Others in the group are suffering from chronic diseases developed in the national army training camps and through rigorous ser vice in France. Tuberculosis and heart trouble constitute the large number of cases, as has been true of other group arriving at this base hospital.
