A new program permitting the!
immediate enlistment of all quali- j
fled applicants has been announc
ed by the United States Coast I
Guard Recruiting Office. Omaha I
The men will be sent home after!
being sworn in. and will remain,

cepted.
The recruiting office suggests

blanks. The applicants will be!
called in for enlistment as soonj
as their character references are
checked, then returned to their i
homes to await their call for|
active duty. The office urges that;
all applicants keep their jobs, as
the waiting period after enlist
ment may be as long as several
weeks, during which no salary
