SERGEANT DIGGER, OF O.
NOW LIEUTENANT.
A. C,
Long Service In Regular Army and'
Military Department of Cortege
Rewarded by Promotion.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
Corvallls, Feb. 6. (Special.) A tele
gram from Washington, D. C, has been
received by Sergeant Cyrus Franklin
Dugger, of the military department of
the college, informing him that he has
been given a commission as First Lieu
tenant, Adjutant - General's depart
ment. At the beginning of the war
Sergeant Dugger made an effort to
get Into active service, but was re
fused on account of his age. The War
Department, however, has waived that
consideration and the sergeant is now
awaiting orders to report for duty.
He has been at O. A. C. on the staff
of the military department since July
1915, specializing in the adjutant de
partment. He enlisted in the regular
Army in 1882 at Columbus Barracks
and since that time until he retired in
1909 was stationed at many posts, in
cludine- several forts in Texas, Fort
Potter, N. T.; Porto Rico, Fort Wayne
and Fort Brady, Michigan; Havana,
Cuba, where he remained for two
years: Fort Slocum, New York, and
Little Rock, Ark.
Sergeant Dugger has held the posi
tion of assistant commandant at O. A.
C. and is popular with the cadets of
the regiment. He will remain at the
College until he is called into active
service, which wil doubtless be within
a short time.
Allied Credits Increased.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6. Allied credits
have been increased to 4, 684, 400, 000 by
a loan of 1155,000,000 to France. The
funds will be spent largely in this
country for military supplies.
