AMBULANCE CORPS NEEDS MEN

The information bureau of the American Ambulance Field Service will open its office in Grays 17 this afternoon from 4 until 6 o'clock. Members of the committee which is composed of those who have driven ambulances with the French field armies will be on hand each afternoon to see all men interested in the work and to supply information regarding it.

The American Ambulance Field Service offers a rare opportunity to college men to take a useful part in the war. It makes no pretense of being neutral but requires its members to be openly loyal to the cause of the Allies. Motor ambulances, in sections of 25 cars, are attached to various divisions of the French armies and do the work of the regular military field ambulances. Since the war began the cars have been used at the battle of the Marne, at Ypres during the great second battle, and along the Yser Canal, on the Somme, at Verdun, at Hartmansweilerkopf, in Alsace and in the Balkans. Today on practically every front where the French troops are in action these cars will be found close behind the lines.

At the present time 114 Harvard men, graduates and undergraduates, have served in the Ambulance Service. Yale comes next with 40 members, which shows that the Service is in a way almost a Harvard enterprise. In the coming months when men are needed so badly, the University will have a chance to maintain the lead already established, if a greater number of men from the University enter the service.

The committee is composed of the following members of the Field Service now in the University: J. P. Brown 2L, chairman; B. K. Adams '17, J. F. Brown '19, P. T. Cate ocC, W. H. Hellier 1L, L. P. Jacobs '17, J. L. Lathrop '18, P. C. Lewis '17, F. P. Magoun 1G, J. Melcher '17, J. M. Mellen '17, P. R. Morss '17, W. H. Wheeler '18, C. P. Winsor '17.
