DITION Battle Creek, Mich., March 18.-An unusually successful system of co- operation between the Michigan State Board of Health and the Division Sur- geon at Camp Custer is chiefly re- sponsible for excellent conditions at that camp, according to a report to Surgeon General .orgastoday by Lieut. Col.Victor C. Vaughn, H. .,N. A., upon the latter's return to Wash- :ngton after an inspection trip to the Michigan cantonment. The purpose of this co-operation, Col. Vaughn reported, has extended to the limitation of all infectious diseases but had been most especially con- cerned with venereal diseases. The legal authorities of the state have giv- en their heartiest support to the mili- tary.: Report 2000 Cases Upon recommendation of the State Health board, physicians of the state have reported all cases of disease. From September 1917 to March 1' 191, dmore than 2,000 cases were re- ported to the State-Board of Health. Many civilians have been sent to hos- pitals and have undergone or are un- dergoing treatment. Free clinics are held in Battle Creek adjacent to the camp, in Detroit and hi other smaller cities through- out the state. Recommendations Endorsed -COonel Vaughan endorsed the fol- lowing recommendations for'improve- ments by Col. Neale M. Wood: 1. Two additional barracks build- ings and ten two-story ward barracks. Authority to construct these already has been received at Camp Custer. 2. Provision for additional bar- racks space for 75 by providing rad- lators in corridors now built. These corridors are enclosed and the radiat- prs would convert them into addi- tional barracks with but little cost. 3. That additional screening be provided for the administrative build- ing, receiving ward, officers' ward. kitchen and guard house., 4. An office building for the sup- ply officer and quartermaster. 5. Regarding general conditions at Camp Custer, Col. Vaughan reported to General Gorgas.: "I find nothing to criticize in the general situation at Camp Custer. The camp is in good condition." SOUSA WRITES NEW SOM TO SPUR ;iItP WORKERS Named "The Volunteers"; Is Dedi- cated to Chairman of Ship.- ping Board Washington, March 18.-Lieut. John Philip Sousa, band master and composer, whose martial airs have thrilled America for years, has writ- ten a flew march to help the ship- building drive. Sousa and his naval reserve band are now famous all over the country as a most potent force in encouraging enlistments and inciting patriotic ef- fort. For many years he was director of the Marine band here. A letter written to him, suggesting that a march which would spur on the great shipbuilding drive would be a valu- able contribution to the nation brought the following reply: "Anything in the world to put more ships on the seas flying the Star Spangled Banner. I will try to get an inspiration, and when I do, will ,communicate with you. It seems to me a march of a joyous nature would fit the situation better than ont em- bodying the idea of barbaric splend- or, and if I can think of something of a lilting character you shall have it." MILITARY NEWSI It is suggested by the Adjutant that members of the R. 0. T. C. clip the various general and special orders published- fromtime to time in this column and retain them for personal reference. In this way they will be enabled to determine just what ord- ers have been issued covering any subject upon which information is de- sired. "Orders should be studied after being cut out so that their provis- ions can be mastered," stated Lieut.' Losey J. Williams yesterday. "When the nen are in the service thef will be required to preserve leir orders, so that it would be advisable to form the habit while in the R. 0. T. C." Work on the new gallery range in. 4yaterman gymnasium is rapidly ap- proaching completion. A false wall will be placed in front of the back- stop of boiler plate to stop the spat- tering of the bullets, which would otherwise endanger the men in the target pit. The gallery range, will soon be used to give the men prelim- inary instruction in sighting drills. i, men from each company of the two regiments will be thoroughly trained by Lieut. Williams, before they give instruction to the remaind- er of the cadets in their companies. Advance classes were dismissed last night on account of the war lec- ture given by Bishop C. D. Williams in Hill auditorium. The classes will. be held at 7 o'clock tonight in Water- man gymnasium. Pictures Snapped of Cadets Michigan's future officers made a striking spectacle as they formed in front of Hill auditorium yesterday afternoon to be photographed for the Michiganensian. With rifles at right shoulder, the men were formed in a double column of squads along North University avenue after having been snapped as individual companies. It was the first time that so many of the companies had performed as a .unit since the uniforms were issued, and the long unwavering lines of khaki convinced onlookers as never before that Michigan is the posessor .of a real organization of serious men who are rapidly showing the benefits of the military training received here.

JEWISH SOCIETY TO HELP IN AMERICANIZATION WORK Librarian William W. Bishop of the University library last Saturday granted a. petition presented to him by the Jewish Students' society re- questing that several Yiddish period- icals be placed in the library for the use of Jewish students. He has order- ed the following to be placed in the reading room: "Der Tag," a daily pa- per; "Der: Kaempfer," a Zionist .weekly; and "Die Zukunft," a monthly magazine. The society is now co-operating with the Jewish organizations"of De- troit in forming a people's college, the purpose of which should be to offer a course of study in Jewish his- tory, literature and science. The or- ganization of such an institution is especially aimed at Americanizing the Jewish immigrants by giving special courses in American history, civics, and government. "The society at the University hopes to become an important factor Business College State- and William Sts. in the Americanization work of the state," Jacob Pearlstien, '20, said yes- terday. "As a University group we believe that we can be of great help in naturalizing our foreigners and spreading the' ideals of the American. institutions and the American democ- racy." WOMEN URGED TO REGISTER FOR NATIONAL WAR DEFENSE Registration *of University women commenced yesterday morning in Barbour gymnasium, and some women responded to the call. The registrars ,turned out * well, but the number of women who registered fell somewhat .below that expected.

The registration is un- der the auspices of the Women's Council of National Defence, .and is a nation-wide movement. By means of it, every loyal woman is given the opportunity to offer to her govern- lnent whatever service she may be able to render, and to get' this offer in such form that it is definitely av- ailable to the government.
