Over half of them were from Kansas City, ' ! Missouri. With this division came not a little com- .. petition when honors were to be taken within the Company. But when the full strength of the Com- pany was required Company HC was as one unit. Every year, it seems, Company C arrives in camp imbued with the spirit and the will to make every minute count. It is getting to be a tradition. The Company Commander, Captain H. S. Robert- son, and the platoon commanders, Lieutenants S. C. Agnew, R. Nelson, P. Henderson, and C. O. - Gooding, of the First, Second, Third, and Fourth l platoons, respectively, were the leaders of a most successful month in camp. With their instruction in CHARLES CHRISTOPHER military tactics and discipline the students under their command profited and fulfilled the governrnent's desire of preparing its citizens for self-defense. Company C cadet commanders were Charles R. Bennett, Company Commander, Chester W. Green, Ist Platoon, Delmar T. Bergfelder, 2nd Platoon, Otto Doehler, 3rd Platoon, and Paul F. Dietz, 4th Platoon. Several unusual honors were given to students in Company CU this year. Hillery T. Rudder of the First Platoon and Albert W. Moise of the Second Platoon were selected I as members of the rifle team to represent the Fort Leavenworth CMTC at Camp Perry, Ohio, where they will participate in the national meet. Only five were selected from the entire camp. Rudder was first with a score of I25 out of ISO and Moise fourth With II7. Albert Walerstredt and Gilbert W. Huoni were also honored in being selected as orderlies for Colonel Kerth. Five Company c'C'7 students, Louis H. Groff, James Medlock, Robert E. Barrett, William B. Hall, and Fred Hargis, probably got the thrill of their lives when they caught and delivered to Major Cruse, Colonel Lindbergh's greeting to CMTC students and Leavenworth citizens. The Third Platoon of Company C gained second place in the First Battalion com- petition. e Don H. Miller received a cup for being the best Blue Course student in camp. William 1 S. Hathaway won the competition for the best White Course student in camp as well as the Jackson County cup for the best all around student. Otto D. Doehler won recognition 9 V as the best Red Course student in camp. W. Gilbert Huoni received a medal, being one ,,, of the eight best Basic students in camp. Robert W. Hegan took home the cup for the lil best Basic Course student from Jackson County. The superiority of Company MCH could not be shown any better than by these honors. M ln athletics, though not as good as in previous years, Company 'CCH was far from the , , bottom. P l We were not very successful in the track meet since our entries were few. Maurice B. Kite did the 440 yard high hurdles in record time and won a Hrst. l When the discharges and transportation were given out none denied that they had left a successful month behind them. - ' . will fri..
