Consideration is being given by the
Navy Department to plan TO provide
additional time for members of the
Naval Reserve to seek admission to the
Naval Academy. The suggestion was
made on the part of Reserve officers
that enlisted men seeking appoin 'ment
to the academy be permitted to be
called to active duty and sent to the
Naval School at Norfolk to prepare
them for entrance to the Annapolisl
School, However. the department has
let 1t be known that it does not APP
prove of this proposal.
1t was said that an effort would
be made to have passed the bill
giving a man enlisted in the Naval
Reserve for the purpose of obtaining an
appointment to the academy longer
than one year in which to try for
entrance. In other words, if a man
fails one year, he will have an oppor-
tunity to be examined the following
year. which will give him. addit.onal
time to make up his deficiencies. THIS,
