 Were among the peoples choice The conductor took his stance, The sopranos were on high The contraltos and the mezzos Were out to do or die. Ladies were there in ermine, Gentlemen in high hats and tails, Jewelry sparkled and glittered, Up in fifth gallery they hung over the railf, The Met was gay, not gaudy, Bright with lots of new paint, A new gold curtain met the view The debs thought it too quaint.

Johnny May Never Get His Gun In Highly Specialized New Army
Divisions Carrying Fewer Rifles, But More Fire Power
BY WILLIS THORNTON NEA Service Staff Correspondent

NEA Service Staff Correspondent
 San Antonio, Tex, Dec. 3 - If you think that when Johnny goes into the army that means simply shouldering a gun and marching away, you've got another think com ing.
 He may go into the infantry and never hold a rifle. He may go into cavalry and never get on a horse. He may go into the field artillery and never serve a field gun, or he may become an army pilot and never fly a fighting plane.
 For instance, the Second Division at Fort Sam Houston is one of the arlny's prize divisions, one of the few kept intact and continuous since the World War. Yet of it's 12,000 men, fewer than 30 per cent are rifiemen in World War days it would have been 60 per cent or more. The specialized and auxiliary services grow larger as army organ ization grows more complicated. Yet this division, completely equipped with the Garand rifle, produces more fire power than ever.
 It sounds odd to talk of a ma chine shop in the cavalry, yet the First Cavalry division at Fort Bliss has a completely equipped motorized machine shop to attend the motor ized units that now support all cav- airy.
 At least 40 army aviators who trained as combat pilots are flying scheduled transport hops with freight in the elaborate transport

RAW MILK SALE IS DISCUSSEI
Two Cases of UndnIant Fever Reported; Ordin-
 ances To Be Studied

Enactment of an ordinance for bidding the sale of any milk nd pasteurized, considered several time in the past, was discussed agai1 last night by the board of health The question came up when D1 Edward J. Godfrey, city health U7 ficer, reported that there had bed two cases of undulant fever here it| the past month, both caused by the drinking of raw milk.
 The board instructed Dr. GodfreJ to secure copies of the New Haven ordinance requiring the pasteurizas tion of all milk sold in that city.
 The health officer told the board that most undulant fever in human1 comes from drinking milk from cows afflicted with Bangs disease Prevention can be accomplished only by having all milk pasteurized or by having all COWS tested for the disease, he said. i
 The board received reques. from the board of aldermen thai additional public dumping ground be secured, and the matter was rel ferred to pr. Godfrey. There is only one legal dumping ground at pres ent, located on FairaeR avenue.

AUXILIARY DANCE
 FOR MEMBERS ON
First Reports By Lieut.. Shea Auxiliary; Party
 on Dec. IS

The annual membership drive ot the Lieut.. Shea auxiliary, Veterans of Foreign Wars, is meeting with success according to first reports made at a meeting held Monday night at the state armory.
 Captain of the Gold team, Mrs Evon Gouley, reported the addition of five new members. Mrs. Florence Martin, captain of the Blue team, also reported four new members. The winning team will have as their host the losing team at a turkey dinner to be held at the close of the drive on March 31.
 A contribution of $2O was report ed by the auxiliary to be sent to the V. F. w. community center in Michigan.
 On Dec. IS, the auxiliary's annual Christmas party, which is held in conjunction with the Wheeler Young Post, will be held in Mechanic hall. Entertainment and dancing will be held. Refreshments will be served. Helen Brophy, chairman of the arrangements committee, is being assisted by Ellen Sheehan, Helen Shanahan, Rose DalhouSe, and Lillian Nix.

field service.
 Further, man is much more likely to slip right into these spe- cialized niches today than for merly. At the Reception Center immediately after induction, he is quizzed for 40 minutes by trained vocational man who applies tests on vocational experience and aptitude similar to those used by state and federal employment bureaus.
 If a field organization then wants a man trained in bookkeeping or speaking Spanish, it can get him from the Reception Center, and without delay another new recruit has found his non n-rifle-carrying niche. There are special corps regi- ments trained to build and repair landing fields, medical outfits, all kinds of telephone, telegraph and radio signal men, cooks and bakers Gall taught uniform and efficient procedure in special schools), to say nothing of all the mechanics, repair men and drivers required by vide spread motorization.
 REAR RANK PRIVATE
 IN THE MINORITY
 Promotion is rapid. For those who volunteered a few months ago it is already coming fast. At Fort Sam Houston the other day, five men were made sergeants who were still drawing the $21 a month which marks the man who has served less than four months. It's that way all along the line in an expanding force, including the officers, lwhere new generals stars blossom daily.
 Every command down to the com- pany is now under orders to train replacement for every non-com- missioned officer. As new units form, and they requisition from old ones the needed sergeants and corporals, they'll get them, and the under studies will get their chevrons im- mediately. This at. least doubles all former opportunities for promotion.
 In the rapidly forming army, which will total 29 divisions by early summer, the rear-rank private with no specialized duty or ability of any

 HOUSEKEEPING"
 FORCE FORMING
 Specialization is to go still fur ther. Now in course of organization is a Corps Area Service Command which will be separate from the field forces. This force will take charge of the housekeeping" phase of the running of any large camp.
 Thus when an organized division or field force leaves such a camp, it will not leave it disorganized; the permanent corps service troops will remain, and the running of the camp as an institution will not be disrupted by either departure or arrival of field troops.
 This is also a boon to command CTS of field troops, who formerly when taking the field for practice exercises always had to leave large attachments behind in camp to maintain services.
 A permanent corps "housekeep- ing" command, such as is now will also be able to en- ploy large numbers of civilians and even IVA youths, since the organization will not be subject to
