TROOPS WILL GET
BATTLE LECTURE
Popular Talk on Gettysburg
to Be Given by Capt.
Walter.

Rigid drill routines planned for the
District National Guard while taking
their annual training courses this
Summer will be punctuated by a
detailed talk on the Battle of Gettys-
burg, near which they will camp, and
tour through the battle area tracing
the various movements, instead OF
just seeing series of marked sites
and monuments.
The instruction and tour will be
under the direction of Capt. E. H.
Walter, United States Army Corps OF
Engineers, who has been assigned as
inspector instructor, and who has
made a study Of the military phases
OF the Civil War action. The officers
hope the announcement of the lecture
and the subsequent tour will be the
means OF encouraging a number of
young men to enlist in the regiment
and go to camp.
Recruiting is being pushed. Those
interested In participating in the en-
campment must enlist by June 8,
when the recruiting campaign will
close until after the encampment
This is made necessary because Of the
prohibition against taking to camp
any men enlisted within 60 days OF
the beginning of the field training
period
According to the plans which have
been developed by Capt Walter, a
gigantic map of Gettysburg and
vicinity will be prepared and erected
on the parade ground at Camp
Albert c. Ritchie, at Cascade, Md,
where the encampment will be held.
public address system will be set
up and the movements of the troops
Of the Union and Confederate forces
will be explained and traced by means
OF the map. 1t is not proposed to
make it a great technical address
which could only be understood by
the strategists. but Capt. Walter will
make 1t in such simple terms that
even the newest trooper will under
stand what it was all about
On the afternoon of August 13 all
OF the troops will be loaded into trucks
and the tour of the battlefield will be
started, stops being made at various
points and the part played by each
movement explained to them. It is
the first time such means of instruc-
ton has been tried out in the local
outfit, and it is expected to prove
interesting
The troops will be told, according
to Capt. Walker. that it was really
shoes which started the battle, which
never was intended by either OF the
commanders of the forces which par
ticipated in the conflict at that point.
They will be told the Confederate
forces were heading up toward the
industrial area in Pennsylvania in the
hope OF capturing areas which would
aid them in providing shoes and other
materials which the troops badly
needed. The talk will be more along
the lines of the general features of
the battle, the events leading up to it,
and continuing through to the with
draWal of the troops.
The situation will be compared with
the conditions now, particularly as to
the means of communication.
Capt. Walker will tell the troops at
the time the forces were moving to-
gether, neither side wanted any &C
ton at that point, but that when out
posts Of the two forces met at Cash
town there was clash, which, OF its
own momentum, kept building itself
up. until the historical battle was
raging.

"acute situation" by the Wilby teachers who daily drive automobiles to class.
 Parked For Sessions
 At all times during the past years, the teachers have parked their cars ct spots convenient to the school, on Pine and cliff streets, and left them there throughout the duration of daily sessions.
 Recently, however, the police de. partment placed no parking and 46 minute restrictions on the larger portion of the area adjacent to the school. Faculty members, forced by this action to seek new parking places, and walk considerable diS- tances to and from their cars, were highly displeaSed. With the per. mission and accompaniment of Principal Kennedy they called at the police department Monday af. ternoon to discuss the placement of the restrictions.
