CAMP TOBYHANNA. Pa.. Jllly
10. (By lilaii.)——While Nomaik is

, sweltering under a hot summer sun

the local National Guard units on-
camped at Camp Tobyhanna. Pl...
are continuing to enjoy themselves
under ideal weather conditions. The
section of the state in which the
camp is situated is a natural beauty
spot. the surrounding country being
dotted with pretty summer resi-
dences and mountain camps and

' houses crowded with city vacation-

ists.
At the annual regimental‘ track
and field meet held on Saturday

-’..."Whitey" Kelly of the Combat Train

'came in second in the' half mile
race, trailing "Whitey” Michelsen.
Connecticut state marathon cham-
pion. to the tape by only a few
yards and winning as a prize a
h some white ivory clock. ,

After a welcome extra hour's
sleep Sunday morning most of the
boys of the Combat Train followed
their baseball team to the diamond
to root for them and incidentally
work up an appetite for the dinner
that Mess Sergeant Olson was pre-
paring for them. Without having
had any practice since coming to
camp .the team did remarkably
well against the best nine of the
111th F. A. of Norfolk. Va.. a cav-
alry regiment also in training here.
leading them two to nothing until
the last inning. onliI to_ lose out by
one run.

When the boys marched into the
mess tent at noon hour they found
their tables attractively set and
Covered with an elaborate display of
(stables. including tricasee chicken,
mashed potatoes. creamed peas.
boiled onions. stuffed olives, plums.
‘calery. sliced tomatoes, lemonade,
ice cream. cigars and cigarettes.

In addition to Richard Masterson.
Floyd Mayen and Jack Pabst, who
had motored down from Norwalk.
the Commanding Officer of the re-
giment. Colonel Morgensen. together
with his staff of officers. honored
the Combat Train with their pre-
sence. After the meal Captain
Lockhart. Commander of the Train.
called on Colonel Morgenscn for a
few remarks. introducing him as the
former Major of the 2nd Battalion,
of which the Combat Train is a
unit, to which he responded in part
as follows:

"it is hard to realize that it is
‘_ about five years ago that we organ-
ized the 2nd Battalion qus. and
Combat Train. It seems good to
bee so many of the old faces with
us. I want. to compliment your
Mess Sergeant, Captain. for this
wonderful dinner. It. is almost im-
possible to believe that this dinner
was put out under field conditions.
An organization that is so organlz~
- ed that it can do that is a good one.
and of course the Combat Train has
had the reputation of being the
best organization in the regiment
right along. It has been a pleasure
to be with you this noon. and it ap-
pears to be a. tradition that I will
take dint!" .Wlth you on the Sunday
that we spend in camp."

Jutant of the 192nd r. A. during
the present camp. then favored the
gathering with a few well chosen
words on the advantages of the pre‘
sent tent camp over barracks oc-
cupied in former camps and how
well camp,lifd is agreeing with the
men. MaJ'Or Morrison. also of Nor-
walk. Chief Medical Officer of the
Regiment next gave a short interest-
ing 'talk on the excellent health re-
turns of the present encampment.

As the officers were departing
three rousing cheers were given
separately for the Colonel. Captain
Lockhart, Capiahi‘ Reeler. Major
Morrison. and Mess Sergeant Olson.
his assistants and K. P.'s.

Sunday afternoon gave many of
the boys an opportunity to do some
sightseeing. Some visited Delaware
Water Gap. one of the country's
famed beauty spots, which is only
about 20 miles distant from the
camp. while others went to Scran-
ton and other nearby towns or en-
joyed a trip to mountain lakes in
the vicinity. Sergeant Pagan had as
visitors Harry J. Keena. former Sup-
ply Sergeant of the Train. together
with his wife and his daughter Nita.
After remaining overnight at a near-
by hotel the Norwalkers motored
next morning to Washington. I) C. l

On" Vi'edncsday. Governor's' Day.
Governor Trumbull of Connecticut
is expected to visit the camp and
review the regiment. From the
ability the boys are showing wash-
ing their ulnforms to spruce up for
the event. their kin back home
might well make use 0; their services
in doing the family washing when
they return. After the parade on
Wednesday a. group picture of the
Company will be taken by Private
Manugian. who has recently been
appointed official photographer of
the Ilegiment.

The Blinks Tipped

Some of the boys are nailing down
the legs of their cots. after learn-
ing from bitter experience that their
bunks have a peculiar habit of tip-
ping over and sending their occu-
pant sprawling just as they are safe-
ly tucked in and dozing off. Others
have learned that vigilance in not
leaning against the tent canvass is
the price of escaping a solid whack
from the other side of tile canvass.

Unwritten laws in the ranks keep
those who are experiencing their
first taste of camp toeing the. mark
lest they be hailed before the "kan-
garoo court," held by the old-timers
for conduct unbecoming a recruit.
However. as there have been very
few infra‘ctidns thus far. they are
turning to other forms of initiation
to provide amusement. Also. not
a few have been sent to remote parts
of the camp for such mythical
articles as the key to the flag pole.
the mess gear washing machine.
meat whistle. a yard of skirmish llnc,
brick of iced tea, etc.

The efforts of Drum Major Walk-
er and his agony quartet the other
night after "lights out" were reward-
c . bv applause in the shape of shoes
and other handy missiles. They now
do their vocal practice in the primcy
of their own tent.

Chautauqua. N. Y., July 16.—

(AP). Mystery surrounds the
drowning of J. Crosby Chapman. 35

 

_ professor of psychology at Yale Un-

iversity, in Chatauqua Lake yester-
day. Fifteén minutes after he left
the Chatauqua Assembly pier in a
motorboat the craft was seen run-
ning loose in the middle of. the take
a mile from shore. The boat was
found to contain the shirt. sweater
and shoes that Dr. Chapman wore
to the beach. The clothing was
neatly piled in the boat.

Dr. Chapman. it is said. has been
ill recently. and friends believe he
was getting ready to go swimming
when he was seized with dizziness
and fell from the boat. He wore a
bathing suit under his cothlag
when he left the pier.

A force of men dragged the lake
yesterday afternoon but found no
trace of the body.

Dr. Chapman was.for several sea-
sons a member of the Chautauqua

CHICAGO. July 16.——-(AP). Pan-
cho Villa. latc world's fiyweight
champion. earned a fortune of more
than $115,000 in the six years of his
colorful ring career. but left consid-
erably less than 810.000, according
to estimates of friends. In fact. they
said. Villa spent his ring earnings
so lavishly that he was almost pen-
niless before he engaged in his last
contest.

The little Filipino boxer gained
the reputation as one of the great-
est spenders the rlng has produced
in years. During the time he lived
in New York. he occupied an ex-
pensive apartment and at one time
owned two automobiles.

When he returned from the Phil-
ippines recently he paid the expen-
ses of four friends to this country.

He aspired to become a land own-
er in his native country and intend-
ed to earn another fortune befort
death intervened.

Work on the post road a mile
south of Dorian center is being
pushed along at a. fast rate. The
first strip of cement. nine feet wide
on the south side of the new pike.
was completed early this week. and
workmen began pouring the cement
for the second strip yesterday morn-
ing. Starting at the west end of
the broken road-bed two gangsbe-
gan to lay the forms for the second
strip. which when completed will
leave the road half done. Twelve
men, working with an autonatic
cement mixer and pourer. on cater-
pillar troads. can lay 1.000 feet of
road a day. Due to the late hour
in the morning at which they start.
do yesterday. the workmen finished
only about 700 feet of cement last
night.

Traffic over the incompleted por-
tions of the road has been extreme-
ly light this week. and gives the
State troopers on the job but very
little to worry about. The week-
end always Jams cars up as they
crawl through the narrow dirt cut-
aways and frequent arrests result
as some drivers attempt to get
ahead of the procession. 'l‘en ar-
rests havs been made since the first

Zoning Praised. .

Zoning was emphasized by Mr.
Chandler u I. "much needed insti-
tution. but. terribly neglected." He
told of several bills which have
passed through the Connecticut leg-
islat‘uro through the agency of the
state Chamber of Commerce.

in warding off coal strikes. in in-
suring a coal supply. in bettering
conditions for new comers. in en-
abling automobiilsta to become as-
surcd of reparation in case of ac.
cidcnt. in protecting lives and busi-
nesses. the organisation has cor. l to
the fore. “And service is entirely
accountable." said Mr. Chandler.
“for without service on the part. of
unpaid commissions. we would have
gotten nowhere". He urged Nor-
walk manufacturers to serve. and
hoped. that they would be instilled
with the spirit of community loy-
alty.

Hon. Ernest E. Rogers. treasurer
of Connecticut. and President of the
State Chamber of Commerce. spoke
last evening on the efficiency of
business methods.‘ and declared that
a good solution for a state's substan.
tiality is “more business in govern-
ment. and less government in busi-
ness.

in Mr. Rogers' administration. the
state has witnessed a vast decrease
in debt. Vigilance. he said. and a
knowledge of the use of a‘ppropria-
tions is perhaps a panace for fin-
ancial conditions here. He explained
that this state now his bonds in
circulation of 812.150.0110 in con-
trast to more than $100,000,000 in
Massachusetts. A linking fund here
will'cope with the payment in 1936.
Mr. Rogers declared that the state
loans on the advice of its citizens.
and he therefore urged concentrated
efforts in every locality. \

He recommended united action
on the parts of local manufacturers.
who. up until the present time. have
been inclined more or less to work
single-handodly.

Milliolu Saved.

A recognized achievement of Mr.
Rogers. is that he has stood for
thrift throughout his administra-
tion. and has saved millions of dol-
lars. by decreasing appropriation;
which be doomed unnecessary.

Stanley H. Builard. former presi-
dent of the Chamber. introduced
«he speakers. and served 'us toast-
master. His remarks were all dir-
ected to manufacturers here, and
he too emphasized the importance
of combined efforts for public in‘
tereete. ‘

Charles E. Hoyt. president of the
local board of made. thanked the
state officials for their into est in
Norwalk affairs. He said he oped
that their remarks would be influ.
ential in fostering a greater com-
munity spirit.

Judge John H. Light made a mo-
tion of thanks. The members rose
In appreciation of the words of the
speakers. ,

‘Attorncy Edward J. Quinlan,
President of the Norwslk Kiwanis
club. said that he was much im-
pressed with the addresses of the
three men. and he hoped that those
who had heard them had profited.
He said that he was not fully cog-
nizant of Mr. Chandl'er's reason for
skipping over Nor-walk when he
conducted his imaginary tour of the
state. He said he thought-Norwalk
excelled in hats and other dndus-
tries. but Mr. Chandler said noth-
ing about it. It was a blow at his
pride. he said. but he could excuse
it. He invited the three members to,
speak at the Kiwanis luncheon.
which is beink held in the Royal
James today.

Divisional Chief Joseph Palma
said-that he had been investigating
counterfeits from the Brooklyn
source for more than four months
and that the first bills from the
Brooklyn counterfeit machinery
were passed in Detroit early last
summer.

“The manufacturers
salers of the counterfeit money."
Palma said, “apparently sold their
product to potty bootiegging agents
who turned counterfeit paseers be-
cause of the hard times that have
come on liquor peddlers with the
passing of ltum Row."

"Formerly these rum peddlcrs
came into New York from easy mo-
tor vehicle driving radius. and re-
turning to their stamping grounds.
peddied the stuff.

"With hard times these contra-
band money dealers bought coun-
terfeit biili instead of. or in addi-

their home communities.
