Rules Altered 10 Help
Reserve Men Qualify
For Naval Academy
Number 10 Be Admitted
Nay Be Increased
From so to 100

Proposed increases in the number
o. enlisted men who may be sent
10 the United States Naval Acad-
envy each year from the Naval Re-
serve has caused the Navy Depart
ment 10 make some changes in the
requirements in order that the cam
didates may comply with the law
While the Naval Reserve now is
allowed so men each year. it is
proposed to increase this number
to 100 next year.
However. the law requires that
these candidates must be members
of the Naval Reserve for a period
of year. must be connected with
an actively drilling organization of
the Organized Reserve and must
attend drills regularly. But with
the Organized Reserve units being
called into active service it will
leave the candidates without place
in which to comply with the Law
and regulations as to drills. AS
means of compliance, the Navy
Department has ruled that these
men may comply by applying for
active duty. and each month Of
active duty will count for three drills
The candidates are faced with
another problem, unless the Navy
Department provides them with
shore duty. For the most part,
while attending their drills. they
attend school to prepare them
selves for competitive examinations.
1t was pointed out that if they
are sent to sea duty or to some
naval station away from an edu-
cational center. they might not be
able TO pass the educational tests.
In view of the fact that the Navy
Department has pointed to the
urgent need of officers. it is likely
that on further study it will pro-
vide opportunity for study for these
men. perhaps sending them for duty
here.
Plans now are being made for an
additional number of midShipmen
at the Naval Academy. The law
now authorizes five for each mem
Der of Congress, but Congress only
provided appropriations for four
each year. There is discussion that
the current Congress will provide
for six appointees for each member.
This, 1t was explained. does not
mean six year, but that each
Congressman have six appointees
in the academy at all times.
AS soon as the present first class
is graduated next month the Navy
plans to send to the academy for
instruction 900 members of the
Naval Reserve Midshipmen Corps.
These have two years of college
education, have passed their pre-
liminary tests by a month of duty
aboard a battleship at sea, and
who upon completion Of a three
month course will be graduated with
commissions as ensigns in the Naval
Reserve
