F. s. Doll, commander of the CCC
movement in the district of which Ely
is part and known as the West Su-
perior Sub-District, the regular army
officers in charge are being replaced
by reserve officers as fast as possible.
The present regular army company
commanders will remain on duty with
companies to which assigned as in
structors and in advisory capacities
until officially released. The changes
are being made in order TO give the
reserve officers training in this class
of work very necessary in their set
up for regular army duties. The changes
as ordered are:
Lieutenant julie F. Corey viii have
command of Camp ITO replacing Capt.
John H. Irving.
Second Lieutenant George G. Conner
viii replace Captain John z. Doyle in
command at Camp 704.
Lieutenant Richard E. Blore assumes
command of Camp I'll replacing Cap
tain Thos. A Dukes.
Lieutenant Robert NJ Furber replaces
Captain Willis S. Bryant in command
at Camp 713
Lieutenant Robert E. White takes the
place of Captain Charles E. Hutchinson
at Camp ITO.
Second Lieutenant Hubert A. Schon

Lieutenant C. j. Nurmoyle viii be
succeeded by Lieutenant T. j. Conroy
as Chaplain in the West Superior Sub
District. Father Nurmoyle viii leave
in few days to resume charge of a
regular church in his home town in
the southern part of the state.
The people of this city who have
come in contact with the officials Of
the army in charge of the CCC work
regret their departure from the city
but join in wishing them success where
ever they may be assigned and also
join in a whole-hearted welcome to the
reserve officers who are placed in
charge.
A source of much qualification is ex-
pressed in the retention of Captain
F. S. Doll who remains in charge as
Sub-District Commander; Capt. Lloyd
w Briggs as .Adjutant. and Captain
of the district.
Another source of much qualification
| is the excellent condition and morale
of the several companies In an in
vestigation trip on Saturday, December
10, Capt. Doll formally inspected Camps
704 at the Birch Lake dam and ITO at
Dunnigan Lake. The captain was ac-
companied on this trip by his staff off,
GERS.
Captain Doll in commenting on the
inspection made stated that ~the
splendid appearance presented by the
men in these camps furnished a source
|of keen delight to the inspecting officers.
The men themselves evidenced a group
Iorganizational esprit of pride in their
companies and in their camps
Every face was cleanly shaved.
Their clothing was neat and clean.
Their barracks were spotless, all hunks
being neatly and carefully made I'D,
Clothing and equipment was hung lust
So" The cooks were neatly dressed
in white and their kitchens showed
such cleanliness that the most discern
ing would be glad to eat the food pre-
pared therein.
Physically the men showed a de-
velopment which will certainly please
their parents when they return to their
homes"
Following the inspection, Capt Doll
talked to the men assembled in their
respective recreation halls and told
them what a splendid appearance they
had made and what fine work they were
doing in rehabilitating our forests.
There is not a doubt in the minds Of
all acquainted with events, that our
Presidents move in organizing this
CCC has proven highly advantageous.
not only to our great forests but also
to a great mass of our younger gener-
alton in developing stalwart young men
OF principle and character.
