Guard Breaking Camp,
Starts Home Tomorrow
After Hard 7 Weeks
By WiIIiom J. WheotIey
Siar Sfoff Correspondent

CAMP PENDLETON, Virginia
Beach, Va, Aug. with what is
described as an excellent training
record for their two weeks of hard
and incessant work here, the Dis
trict's anti-aircraft artillery troops
today are cleaning the sand out of
their equipment and clothes, pre-
paratory to the long trek home.
Before the sunrise tomorrow, con-
voys of guns, trucks, half-tracks,
radar and other equipment will
start moving home. Half of the
troops will get few more winks
of sleep, for they will travel by bus
to Norfolk and then entrain on a
special, which will take them to the
Union Station.
Passes for all hands not on special
details were to be available at noon
today. They may go to the nearby
summer resort or anywhere else
they like. The only time limit is
that they return to camp in time
to depart with their units
The camp communication system
was the first of the utilities to come
down. A large detail of men started
early today reeling in more than II
miles of wire connecting field tele-
phones with all areas and as far
away as Dam Neck, the firing
range, on 17-station switchboard.
The gun units completed their
firing yesterday afternoon. The
machine-guns and Bofors guns
poured shells at a sleeve target.
The big -millimeters fired pat
tern" because their crews were not
believed to have advanced suffi-
GENTLY to fire at sleeves. But the
Virginia batteries fired, and the
District men picked up the bursts
through their radar and fired shells
at it. They were reported to have
done very well at this radar spotting.
Already Col. Leroy S. Mann, COM
manding the 260th Anti-Aircraft
Artillery Group, and camp COM
mander of District troops here, is
formulating plans for next years
training. He held long conference
late yesterday with 1t. Col. Edward
B. Hampstead, commander of Fort
Story, the facilities of which were
used several times by the District
contingent in his target practice.

JeweIer Loses Gem in Court
Test After Store Is Looted

Fourteenth street NV, had brought
suit against the District property
custodian contending the ring was
his lawfully purchased property.
Joseph Davis, who is serving time
for Federal offense at the Atlanta
penitentiary, testified the ring was
one taken from Mr.. Gravelle's home
and sold to Mr.. Sherman.
The, dispute boiled down to Mr.
Gravelle's assertion that his ring
contained IL carat stone, and Mr..
Sherman's that the ring in question
weighed about IL carats.
With Assistant Corporation Coun-
sci Hubert B. Pair. all parties made
a trip to the A. Kahn Jewelry store,
where the stone was found to weigh
1A carats. The jurist then denied
Mr.. Shermans claim.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Sherman,s BROTH

The game went into the first
half of the fifth with the score

but the All-Stars came back
with home run in the last half
and came out winners. s-..."
Play by both teams was ex-
ceptionally good. Both teams
had star short-stops and the first
basemen of each team turned in
sparkling plays. Pitching was
good, but the outfielders were the
spark-plugs of the game with big
league catches being turned In
by all of them. The catchers had
their eyes on every pitch, and
every stolen base was earned.
Four student umpires kept the
game under big time control. In
the game between the ALL
Leagues won 8-4, after playing
heads up ball. Play was good by
all. Even the student umpires
came in with some close calling
