Exhibit Artillery Instruments

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Types of the various instruments which are used for fire control in the field artillery are now on exhibition in Military Headquarters in the basement of University Hall, and will remain open for inspection for the remainder of the college year. The collection includes examples of the more important material used in the conduct and observation of fire, in addition to a Browning machine gun; sectionalized projectiles and fuses for the 75 mm., 3 inch, and 155 mm. gun; McClellan saddle and saddle bags; and a cavvesson. The fire control apparatus consists of a battery commander's telescope, battery commander's periscope, aiming circle, one meter base range finder, field telescope; and portable switch boards, and plotting boards. Captain Dick will be very glad to explain the use of these instruments to any member of the University who is interested.
