U. S. Army Offers Non-Com. Grades Special enlistment privileges in the U. S. Army are offered to skilled veterans of any of the armed forces, it was announced today. According to Capt. Joe C. Tyler, commanding officer of the U. S. Army and U. S. Air Force Recruiting Station, Indianapolis, apy man who is qualified in- one of more than 300 military occupational specialties in the army, navy, air forces, marines or coast guard, is eligible to a non-com-missioned grade if he enlists now in the U. S. Army for three years. Outlining the plan in further detail, Capt. Tyler explained that the exact grade a man receives depends on his previous grade, and on length of time he held his occupation specialty.

i “Former enlisted men,” he said, ’ “may be given grades as high as technical sergeant. Former officers

"GAY GADGETS" Aasocutted N«w«pap«»—WN~U Featur— By NANCY PEPPER Teen Tribal Customs No need to look to the Jungles tor strange tribal customs: Just keep >your eyes on* the high schools and their inmates. Here are some of the activities that are the Talk of the Teens around the country. Pocket Peeping—The girls in one high school were so annoyed at the way the boys ridiculed the contents of their handbags, that they conducted a pocket-to-pocket survey among the Big Men on Campus. The results, as reported in the school paper, proved conclusively that the pocket is messier than the pocketbook any day. Long May It Wave—Just for a gag, the boys in another high school conducted a contest among themselves to see who could go the longest time without having a hair cut. Things were going—and GROWING —from bad to worse, when the faculty stepped in. Cake Eaters Way back in the days of “Margie.” a wolf was called a Cake Eater. Well, history is repeating itself in the town where the teenagers have deserted the soda fountain for the bakery. Cakes and pies are the preference for between meal snacks. • • • OLD DITTY We find magnificent poetry in the high school newspapers. Here’s a good example of rhyme Without reason. And, do you know, it’s SO TRUE! It’s the little things that bother And put us on the rack You can sit upon a mountain. But you can’t sit on a tack. • ♦ * KNIT, PURL AND RIP What’s- knittin’, kitten? Well, we’ve been snooping around some high school campuses and we find the slicker chicks nudgin’ their needles like mad. Here are two favorite fashions that keep ’em in stitches these days. Ad Rags Not only do you go around singing radio commercials, but you go aropnd knitting the headbands right out of that pop ad. You knit them to match your sweaters and socks; you trim them up with your favorite silver pins. Socks Appeal Everybody’s knitting argyle socks in the swoony pastel color, to take the place of those dark-colored argyles you used, to buy in the boys’ department. Pink and blue with white stripings are the feminine favorites, topped with cuffs of white angora that look as slurpy as the whipped cream on top of a sundae.. - - ' 4 ’ . »

may receive grades as high as master sergeant. “This is truly a remarkable opportunity for a man to make his previous experience pay off,” he continued. "There is probably no field today that holds more promises than the army and there is no better place on earth where a man can learn a job and still receive high pay while learning than right in our own U. S. Army. The army is leading the world in research and experiment. The men who are in the army are “in the know” on the latest developments in this fast-moving age. The privilege to enlist in grade in the army means that, no matter how long a man has been out of uniform, he can step back in with credit for his previous skill, service and training. Full details are available now at the local U. S. Army and U. S. Air Force Recruiting Station, 416 Post Office Building, Indianapolis, Ind.

Two 'Firsts' The young husband had just arrived home from the office. “What’s the matter, darling?” he asked his wife. “You look flustered.” “Oh, I’ve had a dreadful day,” she replied. “Baby cut his first tooth and then ‘he fell and knocked it out.” ? “Well, and then what happened?” “Oh, darling,” she answered in a shocked voice, “he said his first word.” P. H.: “Darling, you are the breath of my life'.” P. S.: “Well, why don’t you hold ypur breath?” DO YOU KNOW THAT ... the Foxglove gives us the valuable heart remedy digitalis, the name of which is taken from the botanical name of the flower? Definition of intoxication: To feel SOPHISTICATED, and not be able to say it. If you suffer from the delusion that you would like to be young again, listening for ten minutes to a 16 year old girl talking to her boy friend on the telephone, ought to cure you.

Omniscience They had 'journeyed, were footsore and weary Too crowded were rooms at the Inn, Yet shelter was sought so a stable Where cattle and horses had been Was made Holy by Joseph and Mary And a manger made beautiful there ' Was a cradle . . . attended by angels Where they placed baby Jesus with care. Brings anew all this sacred sweet reverence The birth of this baby so fair, Binding hearts with great understanding Lifting souls from their burdeh of care! —Anna E. Young. Do you know that... the Prince of Wales (the former Edward VIII) created a vogue for the welldressed man to wear a maroon carnation with evening clothes?
