Problem Net Effectively Worked Out. The University battalion devoted the two-hour period Tuesday from one to three to the problem of advancing south on the general line of Univer sity street in an effort to determine ' the force and rout an enemy located with three machine guns and a bat j tery of artillery near the Masonic | cemetery. flow well they succeeded is told in the following story by Lieutenant Col ! onel John Leader, which is the only comment the Colonel made on the general effectiveness of the battalion’s advance. The Colonel says that when j he is betting on a horse in a race, i and his horse comes in third or fourth, j he feels very badly. “Hut when my horse comes in last of all,” he said, “I don't mind, because I know that it is too bad to be true.” The battalion was to bo arranged as the advance guard of a division. They were to discover the force of the | enemy as far as possible, capture the machine guns, make an orderly ad vance and charge the enemy, when it seemed best. The skeleton enemy against which the battalion advanced had artillery in the rear, represented by a bass drum, which kept boom ing away after the start of the battle. Three snare drums in front of the en emy’s position .formed the machine guns. A small force of infantrymen with blue Hags and hatbands and a force of cavalry with yellow flags and hatbands represented the force of the skeleton enemy. The battalion failed to effectively capture the enemy’s guns or to dis lodge them from their position, think the umpires. In fact, from the posi tion the battalion took, they all might easily have been killed several times over, for they exposed themselves on the ridges, making the best possible targets for the enemy fire.
