SOLDIERS PUT IN BEST SPOTS

No ‘Rule of Thumb’ Used in New: 77th; Even Hobbies

Are Considered.

By CHARLES T. LUCEY Times Special Writer

FT. JACKSON, S. C, April 23.— This is going to be a square-peg-in-a-square-hole army insofar as it is humanly possible to make it so. A new system of classification and assignment is being used in forming the new mith division here, and it will be followed generally in funnel-| ing millions of men into other new divisions. Often, in the world war, a unit commander needing cooks or me-

Eicheli (berger, the 77th commanding offi-| cer, wants the fullest possible recognition of merit in his new soldiers. | Touring among his men in a jeep with this reporter, the general came | lupon a raw young soldier learning | ‘how to handle a bayonet. He saw | the boy go through the paces set for him by his lieutenant instructor and, because he did well, commend- | ed him quickly.

An Important Event

“Where are you from?” the gen- | eral asked. | “West Vandergrift, Pa. sir?’ the boy answered. | “What did you do?” asked the! general again. The most important thing the boy could think of popped into his head. “I got married two weeks ago, sir,” he said earnestly. “Fine,” said General Eichelberger. “You'll have a corporal’s stripes before long maybe, and you can send her more money.”

A Job to Be Done
