Fearless Fraley's facts and figures: Boxing people are becoming increasingly nervous over the prolonged grand jury investigation into the sport's connections with the underworld and blood pressures have been rising rapidly since word leaked out that the inquiry, entering its fourth month, has revealed "plenty." The fight mob spends a great deal of time conjecturing about ifornia. a par three water, "the number one All- American hole." But Pine Valley, he says, is the toughest and this is borne out by the poem concocted by a disgusted Walker Cupper who couldn't break 80 there which goes: "1 know that 1 shall never see, a course as tough as Pine Valley. "With trees and sand traps everywhere, the divots flying through the air.

It was training which Major Jack W. Bisehberger, battalion commander, described as the mast rugged, realistic and challenging of any summer tour. The reservists started right in on the primary mfssion of their active duty tour the construction of 800 feet of roadway on this reservation which includes reconnaissance of the area, establishing grades and center-lines, clearing trees (from which timbers were cut for culverts by another reserve unit, the 384th Forestry Company of State College) grubbing, stripping, drainage, including ditching and necessary culverts, and rough grading. The road construction operations were continuously conducted under tactical conditions which included two nights of tactical unit problems and bivouac in bhe field.

A water supply point with a capacity of 20.000 gallons per day was established and maintained during the three days and two nights of bivouac and a surveying team was in constant operation during the project. During the first week, collateral training included firing of the M-l rifle on the range for qualification of those members not yet qualified. The firing was conducted by 1st Lt. Albert Krieger of Lawrenceville, executive officer of Company Wellsboro, as range officer. He was assisted by 2d Lt.

David E. Bearint of 331 West College Avenue, State College, of the battalion staff. In addition to the M-l firing, teams from each company of the battalion fired the 3.5 rocket All training was carried out on a battalion level. Since the 491st is composed of companies from difficult cities throughout the Central Pennsylvania area, the training helps gain peak unit operational efficiency, and gives each member of the 491st an opportunity to exercise leadership and specialist abilities to the utmost.
