State Military Rendezvous. Niantic,
May 5~An overcast gray sky greeted
Connecticut's soldier boys this morning
after their first night at the military
rendezvous selected by the United
states government as the mastering
station of the quota of the Nutmeg
state. A damp wind blew across the
camp ground from Nlaniicrivcr. and
over 1,000 troopers cralwéd from their
tents siifily. Not a man of the entire
guard had iemoved bis outer clothing
during the night and it required con-
siderable smrp‘cring about before the
men could "warm up."
The b‘irlt regiment scttlcd down to
camp life in earnest inst night and this
morning things were moving along
wiIlI clockwork precision. ”Colonel
Burden. issued the following order this
morning-of routine for his command:
7 a. on, police call; 7:30, company
drill; .‘i. orderly hour: 9. guard mount:
9: 45 to ll:l5 company drill. 12:30. din-
ner.
For breakfast the camp bad beci’
steak. potatoes. bread and coffee. The
raw recruits began drilling early this
morning‘ in charge of non- commission-
cd ofllccrs. Campaign bats were Issued
this morning.

This mimics the Yale contingent
were unanimous in efforts to "thaw"
out. and Ihcy did it by playing ball on
the parade ground. ll. r. Weston had
been placcd in command of the Yale
olutoon which is now officially known
as Platoon 3. light aniilcry.
The collcgc boys arose ill 5:30 and a

had "one kick to realsicr."
