Likes Life
} In Spars
BY PHuoMENE EZACK

THE TRANSITION from
civilian TO Spar has completely
hanged life for Josephine
Singley except in the work she
does
Josephine, who has the dis
tinction Of being the only Spar
yeoman In Detroit, was, before
enlisting, a crack stenographer
with an oil company. Now, as
a Spar, she still does stenog-
raphy, but her work releases a
man for combat.
; Yeoman Josephine likes her
life ax enlisted coast guards
woman better than she did her
life as a civilian. 1t offers more
variety, she meets more people,
IL has interest and she knows
she is doing her part in her ma
tons battle.
Lived in Apartment
She was a member Of the first
Spar class 10 train at Hunter
College. The girls lived in
apartments taken over by the
government and they had 10

classes, drill, learn navy per-
Sonnel and regulations.
The days were long and hard
boot camp was definitely tough
but il was fun. Some couldn' I
take il and were wecded out.
Not all SparS become yeomen;
aptitude tests determine wherein
they may best help. Some are
trained in communications work,
others as storekeepers. pay
clerks. pharmacists mates, avia-
tion machlnists and parachute
riggers
Because she had been a
stenographer, Josephine com
pleted her training ahead Of
schedule and was sent 10 adj
vance training center in Still
water. Okla.
Stillwsfer Fun
Life in Saltwater was fun.
The grounds and quarters were
pleasant and there were lots OF

brother sailors from nearby

War Problem Clinic:
Girl Advised to Quit Suspicious Man

Young men and women who be-
lieve themselves in love often find
that a separation brought on by
the war leads 10 a misunder-
Htanding.
Sometimes -hese misunder-
standings or differences are petty
in nature and can be overcome
through a frank discussion of the
facts. Other times they lead to
a serious break which cannot be
so readily mended.
In any case, the severe hard
ships Of a wartime world do pro-
vide acid tests for friendships and
often reveal characteristics of a
personality which otherwise might
have remained hidden for some
time.
A young woman whose soldier
friend is meeting just such a test
writes the WAR PROBLEM
CLINIC concerning her case and
the answer is supplied in today's
clinic column.

Fighting Mans Friend
Questions and Answers

The following questions Of a
factual nature have been answered
by Fighting Mans Friend:
w. M: O. have received a
letter from a brother of mine who
is in the medical corps and in
active duty overseas. He was a
medical student at the University
of Pittsburgh before being drafted.
He was informed by his lieuten-
ant that the army has figured
out a way TO get the medical stu
dents in active duty and at the
same time have them continue
medical school.
l do not know whether there
is such law or ruling. My brother
would like 10 know how this would
affect the medical students in
active duty overseas.
Ar there Is such a plan IL
would be up to the mans COM
IN an ing officer to decide
whether the man merited being
sent 10 such a school or given
such a program OF training.

w. D.: Q-I have been classified
in AZ. The reason for my rejec-
ton was a dry perforation of the
left eardrum. The ailment has
absolutely no effect on my hearing
or general physical condition.
Other than this, my health Is
perfect.
i assume that the army has
some reason for not wanting me
even for limited service. What
trouble could my ear cause that
would render me unfit for any
k n d of military service? And
what chances, if any. will / have
of being called at a later date?
A-The doctors who examined
you at the induction center are
specialists In their respective
fields and you can be assured
that the doctors judgment Is
sound. Only your draft board
can tell you what your chances
are Of being called at later
date.
A. T.: Q-My brother, 20 years
old, enlisted in the coast guard
two years ago. About a year ago
he deserted and was given a
chance to go back a few weeks
after deserving without general
court martial, but didn't.
About 10 days ago he was picked
up by military police and taken
back 10 his former post and yes
terday we received word from the
government that my brother will
go through a court martial (gen-

Marriage requires that both
people have complete confidence

Separation, often for long
periods, makes this even more

that the story il false and the
