INDIANA SELECTS MAY GO TO GEORGIA SOON
Camp Zachary Taylor, Ky., April 29.—While nothing official has been announced it is understood here that the Indiana selects who arrived in Camp Friday and Saturday will remain in this cantonment for only a brief first training period. This period is set between, two and three weeks according to progress made. Just where the new Hoosier selects will be sent is not known, but the concensus of opinion is that the men will go to Camp Gordon, near Atlanta, Ga. Nearly 700 colored selects from the Hoosier state reached herd today and with them came a smattering of whites. Three hundred and fortysbt white selects are expecty here tomorrow. The Louisville quota of the first increment of the second draft and units from other Kentucky points came today. In all the Kentucky selects who arrived numbered 1,046.
