Announcement has been made by Eliot Norton '85 from the New York office of the Ambulance Corps that the anonymous donor who has offered to provide all the money necessary to run two full sections, the estimated cost for which will be at least $250,000, is Robert Walton Goelet '02, of New York City. The two sections will contain 40 men each, and will sail for Europe as soon as possible. One condition only was made by Mr. Goelet, that the full number of 80 men be obtained in order to make the organization of the two sections a complete success, the men not sailing in small detachments with a resulting delay in Paris, but embarking together in the near future and proceeding directly to the front upon their arrival in France. The volunteering for the work has been taking place rapidly, and enough men have been obtained practically to insure the success of the venture. Volunteers are still needed for ambulance driving, however, but if the full number of enlistments are not obtained enough experienced drivers will be taken away from the present sections, without hurting their efficiency, to complete the two new units. The corps will accept as many men as volunteer, however, as vacancies are constantly occurring in the three old sections of the corps, when the six-month terms of enlistment for the men expire.

Expenses Will Be About $100

In order to make the matter of expenses clearer it is repeated that all drivers will be provided with a uniform and outfit, and will be given their food and lodging from the time they reach Paris until they leave to return home. The volunteers themselves will furnish only articles of personal apparel and minor importance, the total cost of which will not amount to much. Each man should provide himself with a minimum of $100, however, for personal expenses, and as a ten-day vacation will be given each driver, a larger sum would be advisable. Although all volunteers must know how to drive an automobile well before they can be accepted as volunteers, an extensive knowledge of the mo- tor is not required, as experienced mechanicians are connected with the corps. It is only necessary for a man to be able to drive skillfully enough so as not to endanger the wounded, himself or the ambulance. The usual medical precautions must be taken by the volunteers, such as the securing of a doctor's certificate and all men should be vaccinated and inoculated for typhoid.

Compunctions about leaving the United States in such a national crisis should not hinder anyone from volunteering for this work in Europe, as the matter of giving these ambulance drivers a recognized status in time of war with the members of the regular army is being taken up by the Government at Washington, and an announcement regarding this is expected shortly. The term of enlistment for the two new sections will be for six months, the Norton-Harjes Ambulance Corps having entire charge of the enterprise, the donor supplying all necessary funds to make it a complete success. C. Higginson, Jr., '17, who has charge of the enlisting of members of the University will be in the CRIMSON Building, 14 Plympton street, tonight from 7 to 8.30 o'clock, and all men who have signed up in the blue book at the CRIMSON and any others interested in going to the front as ambulance drivers may meet him at that time. Definite information will be given out in regard to the organization of the two new sections and the matter of the necessary papers and passports will be made clear. The list of articles necessary to take to France which are found indispensable by ambulance drivers will also be given out
