THE SPORTSMEN’S BATTALION
To clear up any misunderstanding that may have lately occurred as to the standing of the Sportsmen’s Battalion, it is stated that it was originally sanctioned by Lord Kitchener. At an interview yesterday at the Horse Guards General Adye, the officer commanding the Eastern Command, gave instructions to Mr. E. Cunliffe-Owen, the chief recruiting officer of the Sportsmen’s Battalion, with regard to its control. Directly its full complement has been reached and passed it becomes a unit of the Regular Army.
