Transfer Mennonites
Forty-five enlisted men at Camp
Dodge who for religious or other con-
scientious scruples, object to combat

the medical attachments, according to
a report from the headquarters Of the
SSth division. These men are mostly

Sergeant caddock Retains World Title
Military circles were all agog Fri
day over the wrestling match that
was to be held that night between Sgt.
Earl Caddock of the headquarters di-
vision, and John Olin, wrestling globe
trotter from Finland. Caddock is very
popular at the camp and the men all
took great interest in the contest. He
won in two straight falls in an hour
and fifteen minutes. Caddock is in
structor in wrestling at the camp along
with his other duties and he and Mike
Gibbons, boxing instructor, do team
work that is highly appreciated by
men. Private Lewis is the champion
wrestler among the men at the camp
outside Of Caddock and it is he who
furnished the latter most of his prac-
tice work for the big event Friday
night.
BASEBALL Teams Badly Crippled.
Several ball teams have been organ
lied and games were planned with
league teams in adjoining states, but
the transfer of several thousand men
to other environments greatly disor-
ganized matters. Captain Griffith is
busy gathering up his stranded forces.
Baseball players of national renown.
who were at the camp have been TAX
en- elsewhere, but there are number
of good players left and some fast
games are expected. The hospital
team has arranged for games at Sioux
City, Omaha and Minneapolis and will
take Mike Gibbons and Earl Caddock
along to feature their visit

dHu IO"d nave OCCli llloIA uSSSu W oSA"
to Camp Dodge during the five days
beginning April Goth, thirteen and four
tenths of the gross quota from each
state. Only white men are to be sent
forward. The men will be chosen
from class one in the sequence of
their order numbers. Men who are
engaged in the cultivation Of crops are
to be exempted from this call. This
will make total of about 10000 men
from the four states. Iowa's quota
will be 3,412 and Minnesota's will be
some larger because that state is still
short 500 men on its previous call.
Illinois sends $50 to four different
environments. The order that only
white men will be sent this time ap-
plies to negroes only. Indians are
classed as white and another bunch of
these men from the. Standing Rock
agency in North Dakota will report for
duty. The call for men to help Uncle
Sam in his fight found ready response
among the, descendants Of Sitting
Bull. famous Sioux chief, and as a re-
suit eighteen husky braves now are a
part of the SSth division at Camp
Dodge. These members of the first
families of America" are assigned to
Co. A Of the 163d depot brigade. They
are showing wonderful progress too,
according to their officers. There's
just one thing that's disappointing to
the Indians, they all want horses to
ride. Thus far Uncle Sam hasn't seen
fit to place animals at their disposal
Various organization commanders are
scrambling for an opportunity to have
one or more of the Indians attached
to their respective commands as in
structors in riding. Thus far but four
are scheduled for transfer. They are
Gray Bull, Gray Hawk, Lean Elk, Her
bert Keepseigel and James Murphy
who probably will go to the headquar
