Car Crashes Into Auto;
Man Dragged Half Block

Harry L. Cleaver, of Third and
Vaughn streets, suffered contusions
of the left hip this morning when
the automobile he was driving was
struck by a northbound trolley car
at Meunch and Fourth streets.
He was dragged a half block by
the force of the collision. Witnesses
said that he was driving across
Muench street at Fourth, alone in
the automobile, when a street car
struck the side of the auto. The
man was thrown to the pavement
and the automobile was badly dam
aged.
The hospital ambulance was sum-
moned, but the one owned by Hoov-
er & Sons, undertakers, hurried the
victim to the hospital before the
hospital car arrived. Mr.. Cleaver's
left hip was badly bruised.

The army will be commanded by

stood, will operate in an area north
of the Marine from which the Ger
mans have been driven out. The
American divisions which participat-
ed in that drive have been under
French command, but now are in
cluded in the first army.
General Pershing. who retains his
post as chief of the American ex-
peditionary forces after a time, may
relinquish the command of the first
army. but possibly not until the or
ganization OF a second army is well
under way. Meanwhile. he will have
two headquarters. at the first army
as we'll as at general headquarters.
Under American Command
The step is regarded as the mos'
important development in the organ.
ization OF the American expeditionary
forces to date. 1t is looked upon as
the natural development of the
l917-1S scheme of organization and
training by which regiments after
training were merged into divisions
under full staff direction. The crea
ton of the first army brings great
American forces under American
command, but under the orders oil
the Seneralissimo, Marshal Foch.
The size of the army has not beer
announced beyond the indication that
it contains five corps commanded BY
Major Generals Lisgett, Bullard
Bundy, Reed and Wright.
Formation of Corps
Each corps is composed of severa
divisions with each division including
$4,000 troops of all arms, while the
corps in addition will have its com
plement of auxiliary troops, supply
troops, air squadrons. tanks an6

other armies will be formed shortly

Harrisburg, Steelton and Mid

hours, or at latest the coming
week.
Lieutenant Colonel Nielsen,
ranking United States army Of
ticer OF this district, stationed at

this afternoon that he will take
this matter up during visit to
Washington this week.
The United States authorities
have the right to close drinking
places within five miles of any
government reservation and
Harrisburg is within five miles
OF the quartermaster's develop
ment at New Cumberland.
The result of action of this
kind on the part of the govern
ment would be to close all
saloons and drinking places
within five miles of Middletown
and New Cumberland. ..
Major Gray has caused repre-
sentations to be made to Wash

cooperation on the part of the
