LEGION STARTS ANNUAL
CAMPAIGN FOR MEMBERS
Local Post Divided Into Two
Teams-Infantry and Artillery

The annual drive for membership
in the American Legion has begun
with the division of the local post into
two teams, which will compete for
high honors. The drive will continue
until November Is, when an airplane
will travel to the different posts in
the state and collect the results for
State tabulation.
The quota for the local post last
year was 1875, and although the num-
Der for this year has not been an
nounced by Milton A. Reckard, De-
partment Commander, it is expected
to be approximately the same.
The local post has been divided into
two teams-the Infantry and the Ar
tillery Divisions-in an attempt to
raise the quota. At the conclusion of
the drive the losing side will give a
smoker in honor of the winners.
The two teams line up as follows:
