Be ENROLLED
Will be Recorded in Club
house to be Erected For
Living Officers.

New York. Oct. 1.-THE names of
more than 4,5O0 commissioned officers
who paid the supreme sacrifice in the
world war will be enrolled in the ma
tional memorial club house to be
erected here for living officers. or
this number New York city will be
represented by the names of at least
$50 commissioned men.
The club, of which Rear Admiral
Bradley A. F'iske is president, used
the casualty report of the American
expeditionary force as a nucleus for
compilation Of the list OF officer dead
but through correspondence with gov
erncrs. state adjutant generals, csubs.
lodges, business concerns and next Of
kin the list of 500 officer dead as
officially announced in Washington in
December, 1919, has been supple
mented by approximately 1000 names.
Believing that other names are
missing and desiring to make the club
list the moss complete and. authentic
fon record, Rear Admiral F:ske has re-
quested relatives and friends OF Off
GERS who died to communicate with
him at headquarters Of the memorial
orga nization, 26l Madison avenue.

of the enrolled dead officers with 9TH
er data, including copies of citations,

will be a memorial court or hall with
bronze paneled walls where the nam es
OF the dead will be engraved. Records
of those who won the distinguished
service medal for exceptional acts of
bravery will be engraved directly uu-
der their names sin order that future
generations may find inspiration in
the valiant deeds of the past" it was
announced.
While the building will stand as an
enduring monument to the heroic
dead the club has determined that
the memorial can best serve the in
terests of the nation by its usefulness
as home for officers and as a rally
ing center for all forms of patrlo,ic
activity Consequently the building
will provide comfortable quarters for
officers who visit New YORK
Four committees sponsoring the
movement to build the memorial are
headed by Major General Leonard
Wood, Rear Admiral William S.
