JIEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. CVREGOX. MONDAY, .TUXE 24. 10P5. PAGE THREE By CAPT. C. Y. TENGWAl.D CAMP MURRAY, Wash, June 19. (Special Correspondence) Yesterday, i Tuesday, all of the troops In camp I left early in the morning for an all- day tactical problem. Involving an i enpmy force which was supposed to j be headed toward camp from Seattle, j Towards evening all came In without any casualties, so It Is supposed that the enemy was met and driven back. The country around here lends It self admirably to training problems and with the vast area of ground available it Is easily possible to each day select a new erea and as a result the maneuvers being carried on are perhaps more Interesting than at an area where trops have to go over the same ground manytimes. Company A went on guard duty of the camp area yesterday afternoon and will be relieved of this duty to day. I was designated officer of the day: Lieut. Moffatt commander of the guard, and Sergt. Clyde Fichtner. sereeant of the guard. Yesterday afternoon during brigade review Company A and other com panies who passed a "very satisfac tory" federal inspection earlier in the year, were presented with streamers for their guidons at a colorful and impressive ceremony. This is the sec ond year In succession that this high ly coveted honor has been bestowed upon Company A. Also among those receiving this same honor was Head quarters company of Medford. Company A has Just a-hout "cinch ed" the regimental pennant for the best mess in camp, having been ward ed the battalion pennant dally with out a break since arrival In camp, and now having twenty six points Ahead of any other company with only a few more days to go. Corporal Donald Nfelson has been making daily trips to Port Lewis, tak ing the West Point examination. He has now completed the exam and the papers will be forwarded to Washing ton, D. C. and In about six weeks he will be advised if he was the success ful candidate. Private Willis C. Vincent is on the sick list with a bad foot, and Private Harry B. Lowe Is confined to quar ters with a minor ailment. Outside of these two cases there has been no other cases of sickness In camp. Both of these members will probably be back for duty In a day or two. Private Richard H. Baize officiated as camp bugler yesterday and was complimented on his fine bugling, being considered the beat bugler that has tooted a horn so far this year in camp. Orders have Just been received in camp that "taps" will sound at 9:30 tonight, with all men ordered to re main In camp. In all probability this means that the entire camp will be routed out early tomorrow morning and will start out on a two-day ma neuver, technically called a "divis ional tactical exercise." Where we are going and when we will be back la only known to higher command. Pull field equipment has been ordered In readiness and cooks have been instructed to be ready to follow the troops and prepare meals in the field. Upon the return from this trip we will commence preparing for the division review Sunday, which will be held at Fort Lewis and to which the public has been Invited. The regular army troops at the fort will also participate in this review. It Is predicted that there will be thousands of visitors from Seattle, Tacoma, Olympla and other nearby cities. With this event out of the way the camp begins drawing to a close and the homeward trek will commence Tuesday. We have Just been informed that immediately upon our arrival a pa rade of all of the Oregon troops, not only from here, but also from Fort Stevens, where the artillery is sta tioned, will be staged in Portland The parade will commence at two o'clock In the afternoon and will be over by four o'clock. This will be the largest demonstration of Oregon troops that has been assembled in Portland for many years. It will take one hour for the troops to pass a giv en point. The Medford boys are not taking any too keenly to this parade as it breaks into their otherwise long stay in Portland and many will be de prived of a chance to shop, go sight seeing, or what have you. However ordera are orders and we will be In the line of march and do our celebra ting afterwards. Our train for home doesn't leave Portland until 11:30 at night so we will have part of the afternoon and all evening before de parting, arriving home in Medford 11:30 Wednesday morning.
