NEWS OF THE
NAVAL RESERVE

Increased interest is being dis
played by the enlisted personnel in
the activities of the United States
Naval reserve forces in the District
of Columbia. The several divisions
are rapidly being organized. and
the commands are being assigned
by Lieut.. Commander William X.
Hoefer, executive officer The new
division commanders are making ev-
cry effort to assemble the forces
which have been allotted to their
particular divisions. and 1t is ex-
pected that within Il few weeks there
will at least be "a full battalion in at
tendance.
However. the officers are not over
looking the necessity of having
plenty of recreation facilities to at
tract the enlisted men. In fact, con-
sideration is being given to the pro-
posal to make the local armory a
clubhouse. where the enlister per
sonnel may come any night in the
week and enjoy the privileges of
games and the library.
Lieut.. c. f. Eason. L. $. n. in
charge of the naval reserve enroll
ment office. is looking around in an
effort to obtain a pool table or two
which can be set up in one of the
division rooms in order to make the
service in the reserve attractive. OF
course, it was pointed out. the officers
and men must give a certain portion
OF their time TO keep up the important
work of maintaining their naval eff
ficiency SO that in the event of an
emergency they can go about the
ships of the fleet without any pre-
liminary training.
Soon after the first of March Sub
chaser 210. now assigned to the re-
servists, and under the command of
Ensign G. NJ. Donahue, L. S. ", Will
make periodical training trips down
the Potomac river.
Commander A. p. Clements, COM
manding the local forces, is giving
much consideration to the matter of
obtaining a larger ship. There is "A
belief that there are several ships of
the Sunboat type which the Navy
Department Will he willing to assign
to the local outfit and, if they are
available, efforts viii be made to
obtain one of them here. In the mean
time the question of applying for
one of the efficient little Eagle ships
is being held in abeyance.
There are number Of the sub
chasers at the navy yard. and it is
understood that the commandant is
,
number to the local reservists for
practice cruises. and it is possible
that when the weather opens UP
more Of them will be assigned here
II another and larger boat cannot
be obtained by that time
1t Is realized by the officers at the
local armory that one of the i'm
perative needs of the local outfit at
this time is suitable ship. When
vessel arrives there is little doubt
but what there will be an enormous
increase in the attendance. For that
reason the officers are anxious to get
a decision on this matter as early
as possible.
