WILLJ1N THE WM This Is the Opinion of Tom Croak Who Is Home After Army Training. Ameilcan bayonets will win the war This Is the opinion of Tom Croak. Ha.ir.mond union leader, who is home after severed months in the army: the lv?t weeks spent in the hospital. Croak ha an honorable discharge given him because his feet wou'd not stand th grind. The last thing he wanted was to be discharged but that couldn't he helped. The t'nlted States army haan t. a bigger booster than Croak He atates that the treatment the private soldier gets is "supreme" and good enough for a major general. - The regularity of hours, the drill and the food ma'ne the recruit feel belter in six weeks than he ever did in his life before. Croak wa-s Btationed at Fort Perry near Han Francisco. Cal.. and across the bay r number of other Hammond men including Ted Blocker, the foottall player: Earl CV.ash. Benny James. Joe Ray and Earl Brunei These boy, the returned tidier states, have each gained more than fvyrtv pounds. Indiana has a great reputation in he army." stated Croak, "and Hammonds Liberty Hal! was the talk of th

ramp." Ii can be taken fn- granted that Croak let all his companions know about Liberty Hall. He haa aiway bn a great Hammond booster and wa one of the most devoted fo'lowera of the Harr.mond football team. "The way the Fnitcd Sta'e soldier? handle the bayonet !s enough to etr'.ke terror to the heart of anv German," nu! Croak. "It will be the American bayonet that will win this war. F.very man at Camp Parry is it'hitg to go lo France and gel in action."
