Superior Tactics and Not Wet
Flour Wins for Men in
Lombard’s Company.
MANEUVERS E N D WITH
MARCH DOWN1 MAIN.
The 16th battalion. Oregon state
guard, won the sham battle from
the 15th battalion in the first
maneuvers staged between bat
talions at Cloverdale east of Cres
well Sunday. From all reports of
the battle, the 16th battalion, al
though superior in numbers show
ed themselves better hill billies in
the battle of the Cloverdale hills
and succeeded in capturing a
greater part of the 15th battalion
before the battle ended with the
15th running up the white flag.
The 16th, composed of members
of companies A and B of Cottage
Grove, and one each from Drain
and Creswell, were aligned against
two companies from the 15th from
Marcola and Wendling consisting
of about 600 men from the two
battalions. The chief weapon used
was a home-maue hand grenade
consisting of flour tied up in a
paper or cloth -,ack. Company
members of the 16th battalion
denied they used flour hardened
with water. Instead they used
flour tied in hardware sacks, while
the ammunition of the opposing
army was flour tied up in tissue
paper sacks, which proved very
fragile and ineffective in battle.
A ruse used by the 16th bat
talion in capturing the enemy
which also worked very efficiently
was first capturing the enemy
scout and then the runner. The
battle lasted well into the a fter
noon. lunch was eaten by some of
the men near the battlefield while
others motored to the city park
here.
A fter lunch, all participants
from both battalions paraded
down Main street and later as
sembled at the armory to hear a
report on the sham battle. Co,.
A. Waller. M ajor LaSells Stewart
and M ajor H arry Powell served as
judges of the maneuvers. M ajor
LaSells Stewart in reviewing .the
battle praised both battalions for
their open field tactics and said
the maneuvers provided valuable
experience and information. The
16th battalion was under the com
mand of Capt. Herbert W. Lom
bard and the 15th under the com
mand of Capt. A1 Deiz of Eugene.
