Sailors Ordered Here For Training Examined For Release From Duty
Arrived
Service Records for Great Lakes Men Have Not Yet Answered
The men who enrolled in the Naval Reserve Force at the Great Lakes or other recruiting stations, and were ordered here for training are being examined in Barracks 4 today for their releases from active to inactive duty. The service records of the men have not arrived but the men will be exchanged to the Great Lakes, since the sailors must be out of here by December 21. The men who are to be examined are not attending classes today.
The sailors examined will be released if in good physical condition when their pay and papers arrive. The papers and pay are expected at any time but information about clothing and subsistence money for the month of October is not available.
The commanding officer, Ensign Finnegan is trying to get the men their clothing issue or the equivalent in cash. Some of the clothing worn by the jacks is in poor condition and as they have received no pay they are unable to purchase the necessary garments. Lieutenant Cope and two apprentice hospital men have charge of the examinations.
The men who have diseases or are
in poor physical condition will probably be ordered to the Great Lakes until their condition is as good as when they entered the naval service.

Local Defenders Slump As K.U. Heroes Return
Defenders of our country who did not get to France are bitter men these days. The S. A, T. C, was not so bad when it was the only thing on the landscape, but now that the real heroes are beginning to return, student soldiers are gradually being pushed into the discard.
"I'm leavin' school," the freshman
s heard to mutter. "You're not in it
my longer without a trench cap and
three yards of gold braid. If I only
could have got into naval aviation,
I'd be in good now."

"About two weeks, judge."
"And about how long do you keep it up?" asked the judge.
