Faf 2A EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Sunday, Jan. 13, 1963 Army to Streamline Divisions WASHINGTON I The Army will (tart within a few weeks to reihape Its regular divisions into the most heavily-gunned and moat maneuverable In U.S. history. The changeover, first in seven years, will be gradual and may take the better part of two years to complete. Fourteen infantry, armor and airborne divisions In the United States, Germany, Korea and the Pacific will be revamped. Only one division at a time will be re organized in each area, to mini mize disruption. From the Ground Up The Army's two newest divi sions the 1st Armored at Ft. Mood, Tex., and the 5th Infantry at Ft Carson, Colo. were or ganized under the new concept Baha'i World Faith Teacher ', Last month Dwight Allen came to a workshop at Spring iield to talk about team-teaching and other modern educa tion practices. . This weekend, he was in Eu gene to lecture about the Baha'i World Faith. ' "It's entirely compatible be ing an educator and a Baba'l follower," he explained as he re- jaxea 111 Ilia uuivi uuv aim- day afternoon. ". "A Baha'i is dedicated to uni versal education and besides, each member of the faith is 'committed to teaching his fel low man the ways of God 'So being a teacher is a happy 'compatibility." Allen was to speak Sunday evening at a public meeting at ; the Eugene Hotel.

Their per formance in field testing "dem onstrated convincingly the soundness of the new division structure," the Army said. Since 1956, infantry and para troop divisions have been formed under what the Army calls a "pentomic" structure built around five battle groups of about 1,350 men each. The Army felt then that the three regiment triangular division of World War II and Korea was not suitable to the nuclear bat tlefield. In recent years, Army plan ners have seen the need for still another reorganization that would adapt divisions to the de mands of fighting limited, non nuclear wars in radically dif ferent kinds of terrain around the globe, as well as for the Discusses of ihe faith's national college bureau. The faith was created by a 19th Century Persian, Baba'u'l- lah, who Is considered one of the prophets of Uod, Alien sam. One of Its main tenets is that mankind must be spiritually re vitalized, so that the barriers between peoples are broken down and a foundation laid for a unified world society based on principles of Justice and rove. The advocates are divided into "communities" and there is no formal clergy. Leaders are elected ... at the local, na tional and International levels. "We believe that solutions of world conflicts must come through a spiritual dynamic, a moral or ethical power strong enough to counteract divisive Flames Rout 4,000 HONG KONG Ml An esti mated 700 squatter huts were destroyed and 4,000 people made homeless in this refugee-packed British colony Friday night by a fire that raged for four hours. $ 2 alnm! hattlefleld. Accordingly, under the new setup, the Army is converting some inianiry divisions 10 mecn anized divisions. Simply stated, a mechanized division is an in fantry outfit in which every body rides to the battle area. Determining Factor Geography will determine the makeup of any given division. Thus, Army divisions in Europe will be either armored or mech anized to take advantage of the flat country and good roads. Divisions in the Far East will be heavy in infantry and light in armor. Divisions posted in the United States will have more parachute troops or com binations of battalions suited to swift movement overseas to deal with brush-fire crises. Beliefs social forces, and channel men's efforts in constructive direc tions." The Importance of the in dividual is stressed and com mitment to the faith is import ant, Allen said.
