ficers will attend meetings as men,
bers of the 10th L. S. Infantry, re-
serve. There are l45 reserve Infan-
try officers not assigned to the 320th

mental tables of organizations call

Reserve officers are interested in
the status of Mai. Gen. Charles p.
Summerall, L. S. A, who will short
ly report for duty as commanding
general of the Sth Corps Area. He
will be the ranking major general
of the Army January 15. The Sth
Corps Area is in many respects the
most desirable command in the Army.
There are more than $4,000 troops
within the area and it is the largest
command that has existed in time of
peace. but it is not believed that he
will continue long in command of
this corps area, but will be removed
to the End Corps Area upon the re-
tirement of Maj. Gen. Robert l. Bull
lard.
