Modified Physical
Requirements For
Navy Enlistment
Men Rejected Because Of
Minor Defects In Past
Now May Be Accepted

A relaxation of physical stand
ards for enlistments in the u. S.
Navy and the Naval Reserve was
announced this week by the Navy
Department. In commenting on
this action, the Navy Department
announcement stated that numer-
Gus men who in past months
sought TO enlist and were rejected
On the basis of minor physical de-
fects, now will be encouraged to re-
apply for enlistment in either the
regular Navy or the Naval reserve
for the duration of the emergency.
The Navy Department has re-
quested that any person knowing
of young men who had been barred
from enlistment in the Navy OF
the Naval Reserve because of
minor physical reasons should
bring this modification in physical
requirements to the attention Of
these young men.
Applicants with varicose veins
will be acceptable under the chang
eG standards, this varicocele condi-
ton to be corrected, if the con-
dition is painful, at the Naval

corrected, if necessary, after en-
listees arrive at Training Stations.
Applicants suffering from hernia

Avoid War Hysteria

According to history books, if one searches for
detail, when the Spanish American War broke out
every seaport the Atlantic Coast thought the Span
sh fleet just about to lombard it, and called for
naval protection Events showed the Spanish fleet
hopelessly outcassed by the American warships.
In the First World War the submarine gave many
people the filters. Many German U-boats
ported to have been sighted off the American coast,
and while actually and sank few ships,
there not nearly many there rumors
and fears from time to time. Getting excited didn't
help matters in the slightest
The arpane will probably be the main subject of
false alarms in this Second World War Bombers will
be reported and awaited in many places needlessly and
without accurate basis. Not every plane flying in the
sky is Unidentified plane probably hostile" its
way to bomb some American city
While it is wise to be the alert, to adopt every
protective measure, we should seek to avoid war
hysteria We should not accept every rumored event
which read hear about. Wait in confidence until
the Government makes its official announcement to
what has actually happened.
A democratic government does not hide facts from
its people Witness the example of Prime Minister
Churchill, who has repeatedly and promptly advised
his people of military naval disasters. President
Roosevelt has promised that the same policy will be
followed and that will be given out provided only
it will not help the enemy. That's fair and desirable.
Everybody can help in this great struggle. Avoid
ing hysteria is only way. Working hard at each
accepted job is another Buying Defense Bonds is
another Contributing to the Red Cross appeal is still
another. Keep busy. Keep your faith. Help win the
war.

real feeling, for in place of his
former tender mood had come a
sense of irritation with her.

IL? Let's go inside"
The dance music had ceased.
The band had left their instru-
ments on the small platform and
gone TO their own supper. Peter
was steering Sandra towards the
table where Radcliffe and Felicite
were sitting when he saw that it
was next to the table where Ash
ley and June were seated with
Sir Hugo and several others. But
it was too late then to change
the direction. Felicite had seen
them and called; All. ere you
are. Come along, we make room

when Sir Hugo, once again the
master of ceremonies, rose and
proposed the toast TO the guests
of honor, Ashley and June. The
toast was drunk and Ashley,
pressed, rose to reply.
II stand before you a very
happy man" he began, M
And then Sandra laughed. She
threw hack her head and
laughed loudly. derisively. Every
one stared and for a moment no
one seemed to know what to do.
Oddly it was me who moved
first. She jumped up from the
table and swung round towards
Sandra. Her face had been very
white a moment before. but now
it was flaming. All evening she
had held herself in rigid control.
She had exercised that control
for days. but now II was broken.
That laughter of Sandras COM
ing on top of Ashley's words had
done that TO her.
She said angrily through her
teeth but in a voice clearly
audible to those at the tables
nearby:
BE quiet. What are you trying
to do, make, yourself even more
of a laughing stock than you
are already? Don't you know

end of Sandra'B remark and
caught Ashley's mumbled words.
He stood still moment and the
pain In his heart was not so much
for himself as for them. II was
odd, but his own suffering felt
lighter at that moment. He felt
like a spectator, deeply con-
cerned, but still spectator.
There was a shout inside the
dance room. ASHLEY, Ashley.
Where is Ashley" The cry was
taken up by many male voices.
+ Where is Ashley? We want TO
drink to his health" He moved
away from Sandra abruptly and
at that moment Peter came out
of the shadows towards them.
You'd better go inside" he
said to Ashley. I'll take care
of Sandra."
Ashley hesitated. Then he
said: Thank you" curtly, and
stepped through the doorway.
Peter said. speaking roughly:
Pull yourself together, Sandra.
You don't want to make yourself
conspicuous, do you ?"
Il don't think ! care"
You should care. For your
fathers sake. For my sake" He
felt he was talking like maiden
aunt, but he didn't know what
else TO say.

longer, Peter"

They sat down at the table
and Immediately one of the wait
ers started serving supper. He
poured the champagne and left
the bottle standing in its silver
ice-bucket.
Sandra drank her champagne
greedily. When she had finished
she helped herself TO another
glass. Don't you think you've
had enough, Sandra ?" asked
Peter quickly.
She pouted across at him.
You are an old spoil-sport.
Peter. Isn't he. Father!" Red
cliffe made no answer but as
the supper progressed and San
dra became more noticeably gay,
he became a little alarmed. 1t
was all very well to enjoy one
self at party, but people were
turning TO stare at her. Especial
~ was this true of Sir Hugo's
guests.
Radcliffe had always deplored
Sandra's lack of interest in
worldly enjoyments the sort
that amused him-but now he
began to wish fervently she had
not changed quite so radically.
He wondered how he could intro

(3) Yet new, improved Old Dutch is safe ever

Sandra, who had risen, sprang
forward and struck her rival on
the face with her open hand. June
staggered back and almost stimuli

Ashley interviewed.
Peter and Radcliffe took the

DETER was awakened by a soft
tap on his door the next morn
ing and a very small voice say
ing: May I cope in, Peter?"
He jumped out of bed, flung on
a dressing gown and went across
the polished wood floor in his
bare feet to open the door.
Sandra stood there, also in a
dressing gown, and her heavy

hostility was back in her tone
again. Yet after while he talked
her into a better mood and by the
time he left her at the end of
three consecutive dances the date
for Saturday was definite.
Looking for Sandra, he found
her in the bar. She was perched
on a high stool, a champagne
cocktail in front of her. She was
flushed, her eyes were sparkling,
and she was laughing. Several
young men were grouped about
her drinking with her and laugh
ing too.
A S Peter stood there watching,
~ the barman passed her an
other champagne cocktail, He
thought: She's had enough. Quite
enough. Those rum cocktails be-
fore dinner were pretty potent
and champagne ones on top are
too much. He moved over to join
the group. He said quietly:
Hello, Sandra."
She waved her glass in his di-
rection and called gaily:
Hello. Peter. Having a good
time"
Her tone gave him a sense of
shock. Her voice, her attitude,
her laughter were so unlike the
Sandra he knew.
Yes. And your"
She waved the glass again.
"Oh, swell"
why don't we go out and join
your father and Mademoiselle
Perrier?" he asked.
why should we go and join
them ?" she replied. They don't
want us, We'd be spoil-sports."
That gave him a shock, too,
hearing that from Sandra.
"All the same. Sandra, think
we might go out to the verandah."
But / don't want to. 1 want TO
stay here. And I want to dance"
But you don't dance!"
ooh, but / shall. One should
try everything once, shouldn't
one7 I'm going to dance and
dance
Then perhaps you'll dance
with me now? ?"
mo, Peter" She shook her
head vigorously I'm not going
TO dance with you. I'm going to
dance with Ashley"
1t wasn't until then that Peter
realized that Ashley was also in
the small barroom. He was
standing at the far end Of the
glass counter, a rum and soda in
his hand. He was in a group Of
men. but he seemed isolated. 1t
was his attitude which isolated
him. He was obviously not pay
ing any attention 10 what they
said, not even bothering TO an
swer them.
Peter almost prayed that he
hadn't heard Sandra's invitation.
Or II he had. he would pay no
attention TO it. But he looked
up sharply as though coming out
of a trance and said: Did some
one mention my name?"
Il did" Sandra raised her
voice. Il said / was going to
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-11-16


He looked at her then. He
looked at her for a long moment
and then without speaking he
put his glass down on the coun-
ter and went towards her. I'm
delighted TO hear that you're 60
ing TO dance with me, Miss Red
cliffe-"
Peter turned away and went
through the doors onto the veran-
dab. He didn't want to see them
dancing together. He felt he
never wanted to see either of
them again.
Sandra had no natural aptitude
for dancing 1t was due to the
fact that Ashley was a skilled
dancer that the episode was not
more amusing than 1t was.
There were filters. Sandra, laugh
ing hilariously, stumbled. Ash
ley's face grew grim. His lips
frightened He said at last through
his teeth: HAS this farce gone
on long enough for your enter
O.. tainment, Miss Radcliffe ?"
Farce ?" she said. Where's
the farce, Ashley? A girl should
learn to dance, don't you agree?"
"A girl should learn a number
of things. And the first is to
drink in moderation.
THE same applies to a man.
Didn't a little bird tell me you'd
been drinking a great deal
lately?"
II always drink a good deal"
She laughed and then she
tripped and would have fallen
but for Ashley's supporting arm.
Without more ado he guided her
towards the garden. She stood
drawing the fresh air into her
lungs.
THAT old moon" she said.
"Still up there. It's been up
there laughing and laughing and
jeering at me every night
since it happened" There was
pause, then she said in a voice
that was scarcely even a whis-
per: did 1t happen, Ashley"
He said roughly: did what
happen?
"A man and a girl in gar
den," she said And the man
kissed the girl. He said he loved
the girl. A simple story-or was
IL so simple after ALI" IT,.
"A man can kiss a girl with
out meaning anything"
"Oh yes. But this kiss meant
something. To her-I think it
did TO him"
THE man, If you remember,
said he could never marry the
girl"
But the girl, If you remem-
Der, intimated that she had every
intention Of marrying him"
THERE was a pause. He said
quietly: And the story ended
with his marrying the other girl.
THE story isn't ended yet" she
said and laughed in an elated
way. Ashley put his hands on
her shoulders and shook her and
said: stop laughing Sandra
For Heavens sake, stop laugh
ingw And then he saw the tears
.on her checks
He took her in his arms and
said: Darling. Oh darling.
darling" in a voice like a groan.
She whispered: "Oh Ashley, I
can't bear IL j.. can't bear 1t. ="
Her voice was a bewildered little
girls voice, not the rich Princess
voice at all. She chung 10 his
arms with all the tenacity and
despair Of someone drowning

said. and his voice was muffled
by her hair.
Peter, returning from the short
walk he had taken to clear his
head and 30 try 10 think things
out, saw them. He heard the
