Association of Cor m cree
Names F. Fl. Waldo, Judge
Nuessle and Frayne Baker
as Committee TO Help Make
Affair a Success

How to entertain 420 boys for one
month.
That is one of the biggest pro-
blems that Bismarck as q city has
ever faced.
When August comes, an influx of
420 redblooded American boys from
the states of North Dakota and
South Dakota will present a youth
problem unlike any other that Bis
marck has ever encountered
These APO boys will mark the
first cncampment at Fort Abraham,
Lincoln since the establishment Of
the Citizens Military Training
camps.
Named by the Association Of
Commerce, committee of three
f. II. Waldo, chairman; w. l..
Nuesslc and Fraync Baker, have the
solution Of the latest boy problem
on their hands.
Fort Officers 10 Help
Cooperating with the committee
of the Association Of Commerce in
preparing the plans for the first C..
NJ. T. G. in North Dakota's military
history will be Lieut.. Col. T. w.
Brown, commanding officers at
Fort Lincoln, and Captain Robert
{. Wright, press representative.
Every resident Of Bismarck will
be asked to join hands as one big
committee in working for the sue
cess Of our first summer camp for
bows" Mr.. Waldo said today.
I'VE are going to ask the
churches, business and professional
clubs, fraternal organizations, in
fact every organized body in the
city to help us solve the problems
that are presented" said Mr.. Waldo.
Tentative plans have already been
formed.
Numbered among the sources of
entertainment suggested arc: Use
Of the municipal swimming pool on
certain days each week; holding of
supervised dances both at the fort
and in the city; automobile trips to
points in and out Of the city; stag
ing community picnics, track and
field meets, and other sports fca-
lures.
May Tour Bad Lands
A tour OF the Bad Lands by auto
mobile caravan will probably be the
feature Of the summer entertain
ment, Mr.. Waldo said. Plans now
suggest the formation of a caravan
here in the city among the residents
which will leave here one day and
return the next. The Y. S. army
will provide tents. field kitchens and
other paraphernalia incident to a
tour Of this kind.
Prior to 1923 all boys from North
and South Dakota who have en-
rolled for the c. NJ. T. c. have been
sent to Fort Smelling. From now
on the camp will be held at Fort
Lincoln. assuring the boys Of the
sister states more thorough and
comprehensive military training
course because Of the smaller size
Of the encampment.
The camp will be held during the
month Of August.

Another Attempt to
Break World Record

Calexico, Calf, Feb. 23.-(AP)-
The giant monoplane Albatross, bur-
dened with crew of three men and
1900 gallons Of gasoline, rose into
the still air above this Imperial VAL
ley city at 7:l2 a. m. today in an at
tempt to break the worlds record
for duration flight.
The plane, powered with three mo-
tors, made beautiful take-off, ris-
ing slowly off the ground at about
seven tenths of a mile from the
starting point. At the two-mile mark
the Albatross was soaring at an
estimated altitude Of 800 feet and
steadily going higher.
Jack Reed and Charles Rocheville,
pilots, were at the dual controls. A.
4. Peterson, radio operator and
emergency pilot, was the third men,
Der Of the crew.
The plane carried 63 gallons of oil.

Rabbit Drives Are
Planned For Mclean
County by Norline

Washburn, N. D., Feb. 23.-Rab-
bit drives are now being organized
in Mclean county by County Agent
A. L. Norling, in order to save this
years crop, as rabbits are said to
be about as destructive as gophers.
Prime rabbits are said to be
worth Is cents each ut this time Of
year. and consequently Mr.. Norling
believes the drives should be con-
Quoted as soon as possible a. the
animals will sell for only about one
half that price when the weather
turns warmer and the fur turns
gray.
Where no organization has yet
been perfected, or where a better
system has not been worked out,
Mr.. Noriing suggests that the chair
man Of the community club and the
cashier of each local bank make up q
committee to appoint q captain in
each township. Each captain should
organize his territory and appoint
the necessary township committee

Sinking of Burning
Ships Saves Quibdo

Bogota. Colombia, Feb. 23.-(AP)
The sinking of a burning ship
saved the town of Quibo from a ma
jor disaster yesterday.
The steamer Bogota, moored in
the Atrato river off Quibdo, caught
fire. The blaze spread rapidly and
the crew saved themselves by jump
ing overheard.
Lack of sufficient fire fighting
equipment and the proximity Of
several wooden houses put the city
in danger, which was only averted
when the flaming ship sank.
