the Philadelphia Depot of Supplies of the Marines. During Major Corbetts tenure as chief recruiting officer for Connecticut, he made the acquaintance of many in this city and on many occasions spoke over local radio stations
 The newly designated head, while at the local office of the marines, stated there was still unlimited va cancies for men between the ages of 30 to 50 to serve as guards at naval shore establishments within the con- tinental limits of the United States.
 Men enlisted in the Limited Service Marine Corps Reserve, Class Four" are accepted for general duty because they are married or have dependents. Legislation was passed by Congress recently creating this limited service, and applicants may be accepted who can meet reduced physical requirement. They will not be enlisted for actual combat be- cause of their marital or dependency status.
 Lieutenant Miller urged former members of the marines, army, and navy men who are within the speci- fled age limits to investigate by call ing at the local recruiting office in the Post Office building. The new re- cruiting, officer in charge of the Springfield district has been re- tired for the past 19 years and was Metro Goldwyn-Mayer sales man. ager in Brooklyn, N. Y.
 Major Corbet was assigned to the Philadelphia depot January 3, of this year.
 Local recruiter, Sergeant Maxwell P. Dickerson said that Felix Skle- powich, of 20 Maple street, Shelton, was tentatively accepted here as a recruit for the marine corps and was sent to the Eastern District office in Springfield, Mass, yesterday.

TRIBUTES PAID
 TO MRS. DIETZ
Funeral of Former Red Cross Workers Was Held
 This Morning

Private funeral services were held this morn'n for Mrs. Goldie Dietz, at the AldeIson funeral home, 70 Central avenue. Rev. Matthew G.. Madden ofticiated. Burial was in new Pine Grove cemetery.
 Members of her family served as bearers.
 John Burial and Edith Ladd, Red Cross executives, today ex- pressed regret at the loss of Mrs. Dietz whose services to their organi- zation have been invaluable. Mrs. Edson B. Hitchcock, chairman of the Red Cross Production said: Mrs. Dietz has been efficient and conscientious in devoting her free time for two years. She understood all angles of the production depart ment, and was always cheerful in helping those who came to the Prospect street headquarters. She constantly refused any distinction for her efforts. She is a real loss, and we feel a personal sadness in her death"
 Mrs. H. M. Toomey of the Surgi- cal Dressing department said of Mrs Dietz: She came to Surgical Dressings when we started in 194O at the Medical Center. In February 1941, she became an instructor. Mrs. Dietz was loyal, conscientious and efficient. She is a distinct loss to this department.
