CAMP DIX, Wrightstown, n. j., Feb
i5.-Rumors that nave been rife for a
week concerning the proposed splIt-up
Of the incoming draft from New Jersey
were confirmed yesterday afternon by
an announcement from Division Head
quarters, indicating that the War De-
partment intends 10 place more than
half OF the 1000 men from the Garden
State in New York regiments. This
move. the first direct departure from
the War Departments promise that 10
would keep drafted men from each state
in localized units follows the recent
order transferring TO Camp Devpns and
Camp Upton the 40 per cent. balance Of
the first draft OF New York men orig
lnally assigned to this division.
From what little could be learned
the proposed division OF the Jersey re-
cruits amazed state officials and indi-
Gated there might be strong protests,
The shift is In direct contrast with
the maneuver that brought Delaware
National Guardsmen from Camp McClel-
Ian to Camp Dix TO centralize all Della
ware men in one regiment here.
That all the Delawareans may not be
centralized is now indicated by the or
dering Of the new quota of draftees
from that State to Oglethorpe, Ga. This
is a surprise to the Delaware officers
here who expected TO mn out the Della
ware regiment with draft men from
that State The new order makes the
future of the Delaware regiment very
doubtful

HOW The SALMON TRAVELS
Observer Tells of Fish's Action When
II Starts to Ascend
Waterfall.

Scientists as well as laymen tell ex-
traordinary stories Of the wonderful
leaps whereby salmon ascend water
falls. One investigator, who has stud
led the salmon Of southeastern Alaska,
asserts that these fish do not select
a particular point Of attack in en-
deavoring to surmount a fall
They show remarkable lack OF ac-
curacy as we'll as of definiteness, In
their movements. When trying to
ascend fall they sail through the
air, with the body rigid and the fms
spread and held tense, and at the in
slant when the momentum of the jump
is lost they impart a rapid and power
full vibration of the tail. This oc-
ours whether the jump Is successful OF
not.
Should the FISH reach water at the
top of the fall this motion insures the
maintenance of It's position. In open
water they jump sldewise instead Of
lengthwise, and there is no movement
Of the tail.

About midday and in the afternoon
the enemy launched two heavy attacks
against Monte di Val Bella, but the
