bsaenl saleoted to attend the camp ito
be held at Camp Jackson, Columbia,
S. Ct. from July Is to August IL A
greater number could not be selected,
on account OF the limited appropria-
ton.
Although the camp has been more
than three times oyersubscribed, It
is said that number of young men
of Brunswick have been fortunate
enough to be assigned to the list OF
those accepted, and will spend the
month in military training, under com
petent instructors from the regular
army.
The big point at issue say officials
in charge Of the camp, Is not merely
to obtain the LOO men for this years
camp, but to obtain a record CT just
how many young men in the South de
sire to spend their summer vacation
in this manner. It is hoped that, with
such a large oversubscription, Con
gress can be induced to increase The
appropriation. and that much larger
number can be accommodated mex
summer.
For this reason application lists arr
still being kept open at Corps head
quarters, Fort Mcpherson, Ca, and Il
is believed that there will be man,
more applications filed.
1t is said that there are ten Of
twelve young men of Brunswick who
have beer. selected to attend the cam
this season, official notice Of which
will be forwarded to the success sfu
applicants as soon as the list is passed
upon and approved.
