"The Intercollegiate Intelligence
bureau is a national organization. It
is a clearing house between the gov-
ernment, and university and college
men throughout the country. There
are state organizations , Michigan's1
branch being located at Ann Arbor,
where the work is being done by the
Michigan union," states a Michigan
union official.
"As a part of the work of the Michi-
gan branch of the intelligence bureau,
an index has been made of the facul-
ty, student body, and alumni. As the
war continues, this index is being us-
ed more and more in locating men.
The departments of the index have
been organized in the University un-
dtr the following heads: Medical, le-
gal, science, engineering, economics,
social 'service, language, military
training, publicity, and information.
The bureau places the candidates in
positions where they will be of the
most service.
"In October, calls from the national
office in the Munsey building, Wash-
ington, have been made for: Inspec-
tion men for the ordinance depart-
ment; officers for technical duty with
the automobile section, carriage divis-
ion, ordinance department, men for
technical duty with the aircraft, engin-
eering division of the signal corps,
directors and assistants for the export
and administrative bureau, timber
draughtsmen, aviators for the naval
reserve flying corps, field topograph-
ers, ship draughtsmen, non-flying of-
ficers for clerical, administrative, and
executive service in the aviation
training school unit, men for techni-
cal duty in the equipment division of
the ordinance department, mechanical
engineers, engineers in forest prod-
ucts, and physicists for forest service.
"These calls have been sent to var-
ious schools in the country, and Mich-
igan is providing a large number of
men to fill the positions.
"During the summer months, arti-
cles were sent to the newspapers in
the states, on vital questions concern-
ing the war."

CAMP CUSTER MEN TO HAVE
FEROCIOUS BAYONET DRILL
Invoices Received for Fencing Musk-
ets, Masks, Plastrons, and Other
Equipment
Camp Custer, Oct. 31.- Ferocious
bayonet duels are going to be the next
sport in Camp Custer, and if the men
take to them as they have taken to.
every other branch of the game they
are going to be worth watching.
Invoices for fencing muskets, masks,
plastrons and other equipment for
bayonet fencing have been received.
and as rapidly as they arrive they
will be issued to the companies so
that the men can try out the lessons
that they have learned against dummy
and shadow opponents.I
This bayonet fencing is the exer-
cise that will sae many an Amer-
ican life in Europe. In fact, all the
men wll be equipped with cumber-
some armor, but as they grow ex-
pert many commanders intend to set
the men at it with no other protec-
tion than pads at the ends of the
blunt bayonet.
Hold First Muster
Even a jab with a pad hurts, not
much, but enough not to be caught
much, but enough to make a man
anxious not to be caught twice the
same way. In this way, each will
energetically learn how to defend him-
self and try to get the other fellow
first, against the time when the bay-
onets will be sharp and a German at
the other end of the piece.

he magnitude of the surprise of-

who takes a family unawares and is
able for a time to terrorize those
taken in an unsuspecting moment."
As previously cabled, late Friday
night the crossing of the Izonso near
Tolimna was carried out. The enemy
forces then found themselves facing a
range of low mountains with the Ital-
ian army master of the passes leading
to the eastern region of Venetia.
General Cadorna's bulletin must be
accepted for the moment as all that
can be stated of what occured on the
Italian left wing.
