Show GOVERNOR TALKS AT ARMORY DRILL Governor Bamberger made an informal tallc last evening to the selective service men who were at the Pierpont street armory receiving preliminary instruction in military tactics and drill movements. He commended the young men for their eagerness and enthusiasm in wishing to get fitted for the duties in the trenches overseas aa soon as possible. Practice drills are being held at the armory every night, beginning at 6:30 and 7:30 o'clock. The object is to accustom the men to the arm and foot movements necessary for the soldier in the ranks, so that when the men arrive in the camps they will show greater facility in learning the tactics. |
