AMERICANS ARE GETTING READY
 FUR THE FRAY
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

FONTAINEBLEAU, France, Feb A.-Numerically in an almost vanish ng minority though standing out dearly and distinctly among their hree thousand fellow -ppupils by req son of their work, twenty three young Americans are fast completing their courses in the French artillery school here.
 All of them arc graduates or have been students at American colleges or universities; all of them have seen service with such organizations as the American ambulance or the Red Cross. More than one of them wear the French cross to attest to what they have done in the war Yet all of them have in a way renounced their own country and gone over to tho service of France for the duration of the war because they have not quite been able to pass the strenuous Amer ican physical fitness tests, and yet are so anxious to do something for the cause" that they could not re- main idle
 With the exception of two or three, all have had to enlist in the famous Foreign Legion ip order to get into the school at all, as a government regulation put stop to the original ease with which Americans could join the French artillery school
 The cagerness to serve which has induced the twenty three Americans who range from IS to 23 in age-to enter French service is reflected in Inc work they are doing. which ac- cording to the commander of the school is generally of very high or der in spite of the difficulties of ab- sorbing instruction in the French lan- guage.
 The youngsters were romping in from their morning work one day this week when an Associated Press cor respondent found them. Eventually they picked out Whitney Warren Jr., If New York to set down the facts, which he did,
 There are approximately three thousarh pupils at the school" he began. ''The course lasts about three months and a half and is not dis

similar in may ways to a college course at home, especially in that graduation is on the point system.
 ''The competition is keen. as can be to get as high a number as possible, however, for at graduation time those who stand highest have first choice of the regiments that need future officers.
 "The course that leads to these points consists of theoretical class room instruction mathematics and all the other studies that an artillery officer must lnow-and practical in- struction with the guns themselves, particularly with the S5s and the 155s. We Americans, most of whom did not know French before we came here to France since 1914. have to put in long extra hours on the language so as to be able to understand what goes on in classroom the better.
 "The outdoor work with the guns is supplented by a great amount of athletic work-games that bring all the muscles into play. horseback rides during which we have. without stir rups, to extend our arms horizontally and guide with our knees and legs, long country hikes, and so on.
 "The French are splendid to us The instructors on the one hand make every effort to see that we clearly understand everything that is said in the lectures. The French pupils on the other hand are all good fellows and we're all great big family to- gether.
 The young men live in a huge bar racks in the neighborhood of the fam ous chateau. Each week end they are given leave to Paris. Despite their signing up with the Legion o1 Honor, they are as keenly and pa triotically American as anyone in the American army. They are disappoint ed that the American physical regu- lations are so unusually severe and feel confident that the time is coming when the United States will let dowr the bars a little. Their service fo, France has made them enthusiastical- ly pro- French. The list of American students shows the widely scattered constituency of the American contin- gency at the school.
