Of the 310th. 311th and 312th Field Ar

here.
During the four-round boxing event,
with Buck Allen, S12th, and Joe McGuirk

tors was kept at a high pitch. After
the first round McGuirk outclassed his
opponent flooring him in the third
round. Private Hopkins and Private
Roatz, both Of Company F, 310th, fig
ured In q three-round bout in which no
decision was given.

GUN CART "cUTE," BUT DEADLY
Carriage for vickers Machine
Drawn by Mule, a Power.

A lady visitor to camp was heard to
remark Of the machine gun carts.
"Whate cute donkey carts! Drawn by
a single mule. which in turn is led by
a gunner, the carriage used for the
yickers machine gun might be "cute."
but 1t is a deadly kind of cuteness.
Two carts. two animals and, according
to the Tnglish formation, ten men
make up the equipment and crew for
each gun.
One vehicle carries the gun and 1900
rounds Of ammunition, while the other
carries ammunition to the extent Of
5000 rounds. The gun itself is a
heavy type which must have a fixed
platform, and is used mostly for flank
ing work.
The machine gunners in camp who
have been to the range have made an
excellent showing and are fast learn
ing the absolute discipline necessary
for their success in action. for at the
beginning Of the war the allies lost
thousands of men because of poor dis
cipline in the machine gun crews.
