ORDNANCE CORPS PLANS
MUSICAL REVUE
BY w. 4. HENDRIX.

Featuring talent ON the eight COM
panies which came to Camp Hancock
from Camp Dodge on March 4th, and
using the combined roofing power of
the entire first and second battalions
to put it across" the ordnance corps
gave an initial program Of vaudeville
attractions at No. 70 Friday night.
Corporal Ingalls,, Company T, assisted
by Sergeant Hochstuhl, of the same
command, prepared the program, in
which the talent Of the various COM
panies was blended into an interesting
entertainment
1t is the purpose of the corporal to
produce at some time in the near flu
ture a revue consisting of musical,
dramatic and athletic offerings, made
up from the talent in the larger ord
nance department which now inhabits
Camp Hancock. He is already engag-
ed in preparing this program, and ex-
poets to stage real show-really
worth while in execution, for an or
ganization which is strong for ''real"
shows.

dancing away to their hearts content and
it sure was some evening of frivolity and
fur The vaudeville show sure was
success. We had few acts from the
Liberty Theatre who so kindly gave their
services to show the boys they meant to
do all they could for their entertainment,
What's that you asked? Why it was
given--My dear boy it was given as
benefit for the boys in the hospital and
our baseball fund, but~to tell the truth
some one went and spilled the beans
and good too-more expenses than profits;
but what's the use Cy talking about it,
we all had good time; all but Cy Hecker
who was lying on his back sick in the
Base Hospital just across the way from
the hotel, listening to the strains of the
song. The Wild, Wild dance music. and
believe me he was wild not to be there
Oh Gee, III bet the girls were disap-

WET WEATHER
ON THE RANGE

The 10th Field Artillery spent
rather wet and cold week on the range.
One of the old settlers who wandered
about with a wagon-load of pies said
that it looked as though March and April
had "swapped" this year. 1t takes more
than wet weather TO worry the boys or
to it that the mess was hot enough in
the morning to keep out the cold for the
rest Of the day. The Y. NJ. C. A had a
tent up on Monday, but when the 10Sth
left for longer hike, the tent went
along. On Thursday another tent was
sent out with a vctrola, bundle Of
Trench and Camp and other equip
ment. The rain didn't bother the vic
trola a bit, and so it was going most Of
the time. fThrench and Camp proved
to be very popular. Nearly every man
in the regiment got his copy, and news
home. Friday was warm and pleasant,
a good day TO break camp, and one that
nearly made up for the rest of the week.

AMERICAN RED CROSS
CHAIRMAN IN ITALY
H. P. Dawson Arrives at the
Italian Front. italian Officials
Pleased With Americans.

italian Headquarters in Northern italy,
April 16.-H. =. Dawson, Chairman of the
American Red Cross War Council, &C
companied by Colonel Robert p. Perkins,
head of the American Red Cross Mission
to Italy and Major Ivy Lee of the Amer
lean Red Cross, have arrived at head
quarters according to the Associated
Press. The Americans were received by
General DiaZ, the Italian Commander in
Chief, and later by Premier Orlando. To-
morrow they viii visit the Duke of COSTA,
Commander on the Piave front, and in
spect the military work along the fight
ing line !
Their conversations with the Premier
and Commander in Chief enabled the
Americans to explain the scope of their
work and their desire TO render every
possible service to Italy. Mr.. Dawson
told General DiaZ his main purpose was
to see the war relief work for himself,
so as to be able to make necessary plans
and also to report to the American peo-
pie now their money was being spent.
Both Premier Orlando and General Diaz
expressed the highest appreciation of
what Americans are doing They said it
amounted to much more than material
relief for the wives and children Of SOL
dlers, although this had been highly
beneficial. The chief good. they explain
ed, had come from the further strength
ening Of the friendly ties between Italy
ana the United States, with the resultant
moral as Wen as material assistance
MI Dawson received many courtesies
from italian officials, who are doing a
everything to enable him to have a com
prehensiVe view of the war zone

rade we had some time ago Capt. john
Ston of Headquarters Company rode over
and told the men that ours had been
the best line he had ever seen at any
regimental parade. Then we went out
to the combat range and made the high
est mark of any company in the division.
Even our low-score platoon beat every
mark made by other outfits. / guess we
are there boys.
