sT LIEUT. T. FOSTER SLAUGHTER The Third Battahion, Fourth Regiment Western High School X Adjutant Quartermaster MAJOR PAUL F. MCDOWELL Commander -mr-'V .5 A 1655 The Third Battallion, Fourth Regiment By Major Paul F. McDowell, H. S. C. INCE THE FIRST day of drill the units of the Third Battalion have worked hard to make it representative of Western. Companies L and M under the able command of Captains Jester and Dix, respectively, have produced good re- sults through the utilization of every minute of the drill periods. Both companies turned in good drills in the Regimental Honor Guard competition, the M company boys bowing only to H company which won the finals held at Central Stadium. Captain Dix and his aides deserve much credit for carrying the M War Game team into the Brigade finals. l57l Despite the proficiency shown in the practice drills, the battalion failed to place in the an- nual Battalion Competition on April 10, 1930. The Third takes this opportunity to pre- sent arms to the four battalions which strove a bit harder. However, the two companies are looking for- ward to the highly-coveted prize in the annual Company Competitive. With the same co- operation enjoyed by the Third during the months that have passed, L and M should come through on this occasion and keep Western out in front. FIRST LIEUT. CHARLES W. MORGAN
