wouldn't you like to Jiave a mental
picture of our boys goingr""over the

ro to the athletic carnival at the Audi

. just how the American soldiers are
training for bayonet assaults in west
ern trance or wherever they may be
sent. And maybe, who knows, you'll
see some of the very soldiers who
, later on will take part in just such a
charge as the toregoing dispatch men

Will Push Huge Ball.
I "The Auditorium carnival will be
a portrayal of the athletic and train
ing activities. There'll be bayonet
drills and trench races, grenade
throwing and stretcher races, boxing
and wrestling. Then there'll be other
novel features. The Funston soldiers
will bring their gigantic push ball and
there'll be fun gafore when the rival
squads get busy with tlje big leather
ball. ; It will be the first time push
ball ever has been shown to an audi
ence here and it will be fine fun.!' .
Perhaps the most interesting of the
features Dr. , Rcilly names will be
the bayonet play. Lieutenant R.
Baumber. a British officer wounded
on the western front, has been teach
ing bayonet play at Funston. He will
frick a sctuad of his best men to com-,
pete against te best Camp Dodge can
send. In the competition the soldiers
will leap out of a trench, "over the
top" they call it, race 50 yards, strik
ing for the vital spot of a dummy on
the way, and Into another trench. Ac
curacy in reaching the vital spot and
speed in -omplcting the run from
trertch to trench will decide the win
ners. 1 '
iTIwir there will be bayonet" drills
with the soldcrs showing 25 different
thrusts used in meeting, warding and
placing the enemy hors de combat.
.Regulation uniforms will be worn in
the bayonet work.
Grenadiers from the two army
camps will hurl unloaded bombs at a
11 c l iciHcaciiuiiK enemy iitui.Ti.ip
' The distances will be 25, 30 and 35 rfei
yards. Hand grenades of the official
weight as used "over there." 21
ounces, .ill be thrown. 4
; Races in Life Saving.
Teams from the medical corps will
compete in rescue and stretcher races,
demonstrating just how wounded men
are being rescued day after day in No
Man's Land.. Speed means life in this
work and the men will show how they
are training daily at f Funston and
Uodge for the greaVwork they'll be
called on to do maybe before the com

president will , see the necessity for

his approval ' I " do think congress
should pass the legislation."
Although impressed with Secretary
Baker's disclosures of the magnitude
of army operations, the senate com
mittee intends to pursue its demand
for centralization of war authority
through a war cabinet and a muni
tion's direct6r.
Chairman Chamberlain said today,
however, that the war cabinet bill, will
be resubmitted to the committee for
another vote before bemg reported to
uie senate. . '
He said this course would be taken
because he did not wish it to appear
that a majority of the committee fa
voring, the war reorganization were
trying to "railroad" their legislation
through, although the bill was .r
dered reported at a previous meetiilg,
from which, however, several sena
tors opposing.the bill were absent.
In reply to Secretary Baker's re
quest for the : identities of nersonf

Chamberlain charging army officers

Mr. Chamberlain said today he prob
ably would , make the names public
