| Five new men were enlisted in the
organization during the past week,
Raoul f. Gendron, William Fl. Woon,
| Leon N. Malberg, Ralph G. Morrow,
and James l.. Peterson. There is al
opportunity for six or seven more
| young men to join up before the lst
of April when the organization will
be finally rated for an assignment to
the re-organized 32nd Division.
Twelve new steel lockers are on
their way here from the Quartermas-
ter warehouse at Camp Douglas to
provide accommodations for the new
members of the company. All the new
men are being measured for uniforms
as soon as enlisted, and it is hoped to
have new uniforms here for them in
about ten days or two weeks.
Negotiations for rifle range are
under way, and it is hoped that lease
can be secured and targets put in place
by May first. The range will be open
to members of the company at any
time when they want to shoots and il
the business men of the city care to
form a Rifle Club, it will also be open
for their use. Here's chance for
some of the local Daniel Boones" to
keep their eagle eye in training dur
ing the summer months.

for Co. "a" ON the local Armory floor.
Watch the windows for posters an

When the Armory and Club Rooms
were first opened, the understanding
was that members of Co. CA, men,
hers of the Business Mems Athletic
Association, and the guests of either,
should be admitted to the Armory and
Club Rooms. 1t is perfectly evident
that the privilege of inviting guests
has been greatly abused by some few
members of the company of late, and
at drill Monday evening the matter
was put to the company for vote. 1t
was the unanimous vote of those pres
ent that hereafter members of the
company be not allowed to invite
guests to the company club rooms.
Only members of the company are to
be admitted hereafter. This seem I'M
fair to the members of the company
who have been following the spirit of
the old rule, but apparently it was the
only wav open to deal with the situa-
ton.
Semi-annual muster will be held in
the Armory on next Monday evening
at eight o'clock. The public is cor
daily invited. This will not be as in
teresting to outsiders as was the in
spection, but it is expected that
number will turn out to witness The
muster. No tickets will be required
for admission.
