Wednesday, Nov. 7, 1917 LETTERS FRO MORE PENN STATE MEN GET TO CAMP HANCOCK Camp Hancock, all My Dear Cremswell:— You will think that I am a very poot correspondent 1 expect, but it is not easy to get down to wilting letters. There are always many things that should be done ut once and these fist things use up all the energy you have. As the walk hero opens up, we find that wo had had a very inadequate concep tion or what there was to be done umong so many men. It Is difficult to specialize, ospeciallY when you see the great need round about you You can find something to do every minute of "the time and wish the days were longer Work seems to be going on as usual in the great war game. There is a Ms " tinct change in the character of tile work this month and I presume next will show further changes The engi neers aro Maly with trench work and revetment, with bridge work and recon nolesance.

They ale also digging trenches and leer ning bow to brace the aides against possible caving In Under the new regulations the Infann3man must be adept In most every kind of warfare. It in interesting to Notch the various manoeuvers of two huge regi ments. amounting to nearly 0,000 men This can be seen dully on the pottiest of the reservation assigned to the 111th and 112th Infantrl. It is an inspiring night to see this magnificent body of men on parade and review Friday afternoons.

Great emphasis is being put on bayo net drill these days As you go about the camp you can see on nll sides gronlra of men learning to lunge 00,1 parry with the murdetous instrument of war. It is becoming more real ever, day and dummies, painted to resemble the enemy ore getting hard knuekx from eager soldiers. Football Gulag 'Yesterday was a holiday lime and the men wets off dull all day, but kept on the reoervation, 110 passes being granted The day was spent in games of different kinds and every man had to play at something.
