Sixty K. U. Men Give Rock Chalk All the Way to Rockford, PINCONN

"Camp Grant!"
The sixty Jayhawkers who had spread the Rock Chalk from a special car on the C. B, & Q, railroad all the way from Kansas City to Rockford piled off at eleven o'clock this morning and commenced preliminaries in the Infantry Central Officers' Training School which opens Monday.
Under the supervision of Sergeant Hook, the lively trip was made strictly in accordance with military regulations. Recall, together with a "Rock Chalk," was held in the Union Station on Friday night. Formal guard mount was celebrated on the depot platform at Cameron Junction.
Private Wells held shirt and shoe inspections enroute to locate the property he and the government owned in partnership. Bunk inspection was also held and the Pullman porter's name taken. This resulted in his being detailed to shine the men's shoes. Personal inspection early this morning showed the Pullman company shy ninety towels.
In the afternoon the men were assigned to companies, battalions and barracks. Jayhawkers were mixed up with the men here from other colleges, but as the K. U. bunch is the largest of any that has arrived, there are about ten Kansas men in each company. They have met men from the Universities of Missouri, Nebraska, Colorado, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Minnesota, and also men from Oklahoma. The men here are the famous Schallenburg, captain of the Huskers, who has already been placed on the camn team.
After the first mess the men quickly assumed the air of commissioned officers, for they sat down to the tables first and were waited upon by drafted men who also washed the dishes—it was so good that they are still in a daze from the effects of it. The officer candidate was announced that the officer candidates would have no K. P. or fatigue duty to do.
The morale of the Jayhawkers almost went to smash late tonight with the announcement that in spite of their seven weeks' quarantine in the S. A. T. C., they would have to serve two weeks more of it here. The boys say they didn't care for turkey anyway.
Rumor No. 1. (Camp Grant)—We will be given special instruction in barbed wire entanglements so that we will be able to it up properly when sent to France.
