SOME UNITS AT HATTIESBURG LIKELY TO GET ORDERS.

IN 76TH INFANTRY BRIGADE

11} go tough helby

f By ,W. H. Blodgett, Staff Correspondent

of The Indianapolis News]

HATTIESBURG, Mist.. April 16.-A1-though Brigadier-General William V. Judson, In command at Camp Shelby, haa not received orders for the movement of any of the organizations In the 88th division of the American military forces, it ia more than likely that the troops from Indiana in the 76th Infantry brigade will not be at Camp

Bhelby a great while longer.

In this brigade Is the 151st Infantry, formerly the lat Indiana, in command of jColonel George U- Healey. This regiment Is not at war strength and lacks a few subordinate officers. The 152d infantry, formerly the 2d Indiana, Is at present without a colonel and is in command of Lieutenant-Colonel Arthur J. Miller. By the detailing of Major DWtght M. Green the regiment also la short & major and a number of enlisted men ajnd subordinate officers. The understanding is that Colonel Emmett F. Branch is to assume command of the 152d about May 1, but since the change in program there is no certainty that Colonel Branch will across seas with the regiment, alth he may command It at Camp She! should It be here when he arrives.

In Pretty Good Shape.,

The third organization in the 76th brifrade is the 139th machine gun battalion, made up of three Indiana and one Kentucky company, commanded by Major William P. Carpenter. This organization !• in pretty good shape as

to officers and enlisted men.

There is nothing official to designate the time when these organizations will leave camp. There are a number of things going on In the brigade, and every movement has a meaning of its

own.

Major Joseph N. Borches, assistant division quartermaster, has been appointed brigade quartermaster. He is regarded as one of the most efficient and competent officers in- the quartermaster corps, and one hour after he received his appointment as brigade quartermaster he was at work arranging things that pointed to a Journey

away from Camp Shelby.

Of course, when the order comes nothing concerning the time of departure, the route to be taken and the point of embarkation will be made public. While Brigadier-General William V. Judson is acting as division commander, he is also looking after the 76th brigade, assisted by Colonel George H. Healey,

of the Hist Infantry. Adjutant Temporarily.

Captain Otto Holstein, formerly of

the 118th field signal battalion, temporarily has been appointed adjutant of the 63d artillery brigade In place of Captain Joseph O. Daly, transferred to his command. Lieutenant-Colonel Cleveland Lansing, in temporary command of the 189th field artillery, formerly the 4th Indiana, has received a fifteen days’

sick leave, and gone to Boston.

By command of Brigadier-General Judson, George H. Klngsberry, headquarters troop. 38th division, has been transferred to ambulance company No. 149. Private Conrad S. Arnkens, Company C, 161st infantry, has been transferred to ambulance company No. 160 and Private George M. Davidson, headquarters. 63d artillery brigade, has been transferred

to ambulance company No. 161. The following enlisted men, by order

of Brigadier-General Judson, have been detailed on special duty to the convalescent company and ordered to report
