Troops in the county are located at Plastic Bugle Rouses Tobyhanna Soldiers, But The Tone Is Still Sour An innovation in the bugler's art has just been received at the Service Units Training Center at Tobyhanna. Enlisted men are now roused from their slumbers by plastic instead of brass.

The new bugles are made of tenite, a substance which has its origin in the lowly soybean. According to Sergeant Vincent Rhodes of Altoona, post bugler, the new instrument Is much easier to handle than the old type. It is much lighter in weight, can be easily repaired and tuned, and the pitch is more true than brass because the soybean product does not require warming up. The plastic reflects no light, and can be manufactured in any color, al- though the Army prefers the standard olive drab. The Quartermaster corps reveals that there is no savins in cost price, but that quantities of brass can be turned to other uses.

Some musicians claim the new bugle has a sweeter tone, but tired G.I.'s contend there is no such thing as a sweet tone when first call is sounded. Mrs. Dorothy Hand of 423 E. Tioga Allentown, has announced the engagement of her daughter, Patricia xvi. nana, to corporal Edward M.
