AP Science Reporter 1 WASHINGTON W An Army doctor Friday recommended easier marches for young soldiers training to help save their feet lrom injury. T Lt. Col. Francis D. Threadgill of Ithe Army's Fort Ord, Calif., hos pital reported evidence that long 'road marcnes given Dei ore proper 'conditioning of new - men helped cause "march fracture" a fracture of certain bones of the .forefoot. 1 AlihouKh commonest among sol 'riiers, it is sometimes seen in wait resses, postmen and others who wauc a great deal, the colonel said. , Asserting that in actual combat the footsoldier is seldom called 'Upon to do long-lasting marching Diplomatic Changes Made WASHINGTON Ml President "Truman Friday named career dip lomat Walter J. Donnelly as United .States High Commissioner for Ger many. At the same time Llewellyn E. "Thompson. Jr.. was appointed to succeed Donnelly as American am bassador and high commission er for Austria. Also a career diplomat, Thomp son has been minister-counselor at Rome for the past two years. Donnelly succeeds John J. Mc Cloy, who is retiring for- personal -reasons after three years' service, climaxed by the new peace con tract and other treaties aimed at lining up West Germany with the west. - McCloy's resignation becomes ef fective July 31 and Donnelly is ex pected to assume his new duties at that time. McCloy is expected to return to the capital for consultation around July 28. An announcement said Truman regretfully accepted McCloy's de cision to quit and "expressed his great personal appreciation for the outstanding contribution Mr. Mc' Cloy nas maae in cringing ine Federal Republic of Germany into the family of free nations and in the development of friendly rela tions between the U.S. and the Fed eral Republic of Germany." Donnelly is expected to become the first postwar American ambas sador to Germany when the new peace contract comes into effect. without let-up, Threadgill said, "it would appear unwise to cause march fractures by creating condi tions which will not be met in the field." "Training should produce a sol dier with ability to withstand pro longed stress under varied condi tions. The time necessary to in culate the ability to perform re peated road marches without ill ef fect can be much better spent in other necessary fields in training the modern soldier. The colonel also took a whack at "speed" marching, and said, more over, that road - marches should nevec be made on paved roads. Another triggering cause ot march fracture, he said, is "the presently current game of 'chick en fighting' in which two soldiers engage in the sadistic attempt to jmnp on their opponent's feet." Note to GI's: The colonel's re marks were carried in the U.S. Armed Forces Medical Journal, which says in its masthead that "the opinions expressed in this pub lication are not necessarily those of the Army, Navy, Air Force or Department of Defense."
