Detailed Account Of v
Work At Camp Jumbo
Letter From A. A. Kalder Tells of
of CCC Boys and TLeaders in
Upper Peninsula.
Camp Jumbo, Kenton, Mich.
■ August s, 1934- v
Dear Sim. TR.:
Just a line to tell you something'
about conditions in this CCC cajmpr,
^<^,ioU^.a^^tJ|^^"St^t»,<tfi!MacK-'
inae. We are in the Ottawa National
Forest, 75 miles from Ironwood and;
less than half that far from the
waters of blue Lake Superior, one ofj
nine camps entirely . Within the
boundary of the Ottawa forest.
Each camp has about 200 boys enrolled, each is under command or a,j
Reserve Army officer who has" usual-'
ly another and sometimes two other
commissioned! officers as assistants.
This is entirely for disciplinary purposes, as the chief forester, who is
also in each campr is the camp superintendent in charge of work,. The
boys are divided into squads of workmen, about fifty -in the largest
bunch and from that down to- two,
each one with a foreman in charge.
They have a variety of tasks, .from
prosaic gravellingi of roads to cutting roads out of the forest and
clearing up the roadsides through
the forest, as well as the largest
bunch, who are going' over forest
sections literally with a finertooth
comb hunting- for and eradicating
blister rust in pines.
Each camp has an educational ad-\
viser whose job it is to do a miiu-
mum of teaching and a maximum of
community    welding    work    in   -the
boys' minds, tb help direct him into
a  view  of   future    occupations   in
which he may engage himself when,
his term of enlistment is expired!, and'
to act generally as a Big Brother to
each of. the boys.    Of'the boys we i
have here, many of them come- from
Detroit and vicinity, many of them
from Van Buren and Berrien coun-,
ties, and most of the remainder from j
the upper peninsula.   Also, - there are
now in each camp, a recreation director, who acts under the direction ,
of   the   educational   adviser..    These j
are part time men whose term will;
soon  expire,   and  whose  places will
not be filled again until next sum-,
mer, probably. j
The boys live in barracks holding:
about 34 men to each building, with
a member  of  their  own number in
direct charge of ths barra:k where j
he lives.   I live in one corner of the
library room  where my ^glasses  are
held,  but mess with the officers  in;
their headquarters' building-.    This is
district   headquarters    so   we    also
have   the  District   Commander   here
in the headquarters ouilding.    He is ;
a regular army officer and has three
men attached to his staff at present,
although he expects soon to add to
this number..   The boys mess all to- j
gether in a large mess hall seating j
a maximum of 250 at one time.  The
cooks   are   experienced,   hired  men,
and    the    chow   is   uniformly   very
good.
The boys work eight hours per
day, are served three hot meais pei-
day, are well cared for, and are generally well satisfied. They are given
five dollars of their monthly pay,
and the rest is sent back to their
parents with an obligation that it is
not to be_given to the boy until his
enlistment has expired.- They are a
very decent set of typical American
boys who will make better citizens
for having served three or more
months in a CCC camp.
Your friend,
A. A. Kalder.
Educational Adviser, Camp Jumbo.

when the lead-off man singled and
advanced to third on two passed
balls and from where he scored on
an infield hit. They scored again in
the second when two hits matured
into runs before three men were retired. In the fourth the Butchers
wound up. their scoring, grouping
four hits for three runs.
Valley Farms scored one run in
each of the last three innings, each
one a home run by Gotts, Hoxey and
Wiedmayer. . TMloHenry and Harms
hit for the circuit for Haarer's.
.At Bridgewater Tuesday night,
Gross Hardware was defeated, 8 to

Tonight at the local diamond,
Cook meets Hospital in a game that
may or may not give Cook a chance
at second place. The Hospital has
already cinched the pennant and it
is not known whether they will be
presented with the trophy emblematic cf all championship contests this
week or next. It sure is a beauty.—
the one that Kroger's won last year
in the bowling tournament and was
on display in their window for a
short time. Several prominent
speakers are expected to be present
and the presentation will bs made
by some worthy notable.
Next week winds up the schedule,

and Gross playing- at the Valley

At Dexter the Independents went
down to defeat by the score qf 5 to 2.
Lambarth was on the mound for
the locals and while he was in good
form, one bad inning, the first, when
Dexter scored three runs accounted
for the margin of victory. In that
frame foor hits and an error allowed
the three runs. After that Lambarth
settled down and' allowed only two
hits the rest- • of the way. He also
struck out seven men.
Tillotson was on the slab for Dexter and while he allowed as many
hits as Lambarth, six, he kept them
well scattered and only in two innings, the second and third, were
the locals able to score on him. Tillotson struck Out five.
The Independents' lineup was
somewhat altered from, its accustomed iorder due to .injuries and .vacations bat the1 full team will be on
hand to takes on Milan, the old arch
ensniy, in a game that should be full
of good plays and abundant with excitement. The opponents for the
Mechants has not been announced
as yet.
Work will be started this week on
the new dugouts for the diamond,
which should be a great help to our
players and to our ball park.
TCHP7ROVE7MENT NOTES
Lots to note in this department
this week. The county road commission and New York Central workmen
have raised the track at the North
Ann-Arbor street crossing. so that
now motorists • can get over the
tracks without their teeth being
jarred loose—in fact, it is as smooth
as the pavement. Nice piece of
work.
The Mercantile Company plant is a
busy place these dajrs. Sam Lambarth tells: lis that Enoch Kegel of
Pittsfield is building a new house;
that Julius Schnirring, south of Saline, is, remodieling- his home."
