Guard Anti-Aircraft Unit Guns for Plane-Towed Target By William J. Wheatley Star Staff Correspondent CAMP PENDLETON, Virginia Beach, Va.. Aug. 6—Machine and Bofors gunners of the 260th Anti aircraft Artillery Group of the Dis trict Guard got in a couple of hours of good shooting at plane-towed targets at Fort Story yesterday. But their program was interrupted by a stream of steamers entering and leaving the Virginia Capes. So they folded up and went home. Their morning snooting scnenuie had to be called off because of more rain. They spent the time in camp here working on the automotive equipment and the guns, cleaning off much of the sand they have col lected here during the past 10 days. The gunnefs found that shooting at fast-moving target sleeves towed by planes, w'as a lot different from shooting at the weather balloons moving at three or four miles an hour. Nevertheless, Col. Charles M. Myer said they were doing very well and that a little more intensive training soon would bring out a few gun crews which could be put Into service with effective results. Leave tor Home ounaay. The Guardsmen will get their last firing practice today in a morning and afternoon stage at the Navy’s range at Dam Neck. Tomorrow will be clean-up day in preparation for the departure' of the troops for home early Sunday. They will have a big task of clean ing up the equipment, oiling and greasing it lor the long overland trip. They do not want any of the delays and breakdowns which plagued them on the southward convoy because of alleged lack of maintenance. Col. Mann, commanding the artil lery group, said the men have shown remarkable improvement in their housekeeping abilities since they have been in camp. Each morning after the troops depart for their operations, Maj. Hency C. Espey makes a thorough inspection of bar racks, marking each unit on details of orderliness and cleanliness. The markings not only have gone up, but the spread between the highest and the lowest marks has steadily decreased. The 104th Ordnance Company re ceived the top mark of the camp yesterday, when it received a score of 97 out of a possible 100. The cooks, too, have improved, the rank and file say. While in the early stages there were minor complaints on food preparation, the troops now are openly praising their meals. Promotions Announced. Announcement was made in camp today of the promotion of the fol lowing members of the 380th Auto matic Weapons Battalion: Warrant Officer Lloyd L. Gibson, 3320 Macfomas avenue, Kensington, Md., to chief warrant officer; Staff Sergt. Joseph E. Durham, 312 Sixth street N.E., to technical sergeant; Sergt. Harry O.

More than 100.000 inno cent people lost their lives on that occasion. The fear and trembling we experienced are indeed quite be yond description."

Leahy Sees Liberal Policy of Deferments A more liberal policy of defer ments than was permitted during the prewar training period appears a possibility during the forthcoming draft, William E. Leahy, director of District Selective Service, said last night. He spoke at a meeting of the Arkansas Avenue Citizens’ Asso ciation in St. Paul’s Methodist Church, Thirteenth and Crittenden streets N.W. Mr. Leahy pointed out that, since the new draft is primarily a medium for training, the standards of the armed services will be stricter than they were during the war years, when manpower demands were heavy,'. This rule of strict selection, he added, will prevail at least for a time. In addition, no limited service categories are contemplated, and youths who fail to meet the physical or mental standards will not be accepted. He said that ^ach case in which a deferment is sought will be solved “in justice and fairness” as far as possible. Mr. Leahy stressed, how ever, that even with the prospect of possible deferment, all youths be tween 18 and 25 must register at the announced times. The only persons exempt from registration are those jin active military or diplomatic ! service. Mr. Leahy lamented the fact that i the new draft was necessary but ex j plained that it was the only way to j convince the “eastern hordes who believe in the exploitation of man and his world” that we are vigilant, and alert to attack. - \ Frank Gauss, who heads the citi ; zens' group, presided.
