HEADQUARTERS OF
MARINE CORPS

Washington U. S. Marine
Corps Headquarters announced
today change of policy where
by former Non-commissioned Of
fcers of the Marine Corps re-
enlisting within prescribed time
may retain their Non-commis-
stoned officer status.
Now, former Master Serge
ants who re-enlist in the Marine
Corps within one year after dis
charge from active duty may be
appointed to the rank of Tech
nical Sergeant. Ex-TechnicalS
Sergeants who re-enlist within 90
days after discharge may be re-
appointed to the same rank; if
enlistment is contracted with
in one year they will be appoint
ed to the rank of Staff Sergeant;
within two years to the rank of
Sergeant.
A former Staff Sergeant who
effects re-enlistment within 90
days after discharge from active
duty status may retain the rank
held at separation. If this reen-
listment is effected within two
years after discharge he will be
appointed to rank one grad
lower than the one held at dis
charge.
This new policy was effected
for the benefit of those ex-Marin-
es who desire to re-enlist but un-
der the old regulations could not
return to the Marine Corps as
Non-commissioned officers. For

NORTH CHICAGO
HIGHLIGHTS
By Ellen

NhlcagO, ILL.,, oct. E-BriSk
Fall weather has set in gang-so
button up your Overcoats Oct. 9Th
and don't let the wind stop you
we need your votes of approval
on coming events this fall. After
this meeting we are having a get
together, refreshments and dane
ing. What about it J. S. North
erners? Be there!
This past summer has been a
busy one with the club-aside
from having two fun-hlled picnics
our members have not been idle.
Ernie Loprich spent his time
working on his farm in Indiana,
AL Wiereck worked in different
parts OF the country-mixing bu-
siness with pleasure by seeing the
sights too! Dick Binder, the cos
mopolitan, travelled to California
by car and the stories he tells us
are terrific, makes us all want to
go out West too! Say that's an
idea ]. s. Northerners-whv do
not we take trip to visit fellow
Saxon clubs? Would be fun and
we could make lot of friends !!
Bob Taub and his wife Kay are
now spending their vacation in
Chicago-fxing up their new
home so they will be able to move
in soon. Congratulations Kay and
Bob! We wish you the best OF
luck in your new home!
The Johnnie Reindt's were pre-
sented with a baby daughter
Diane! Papa Johnnie beams
with fatherly pride as he tells US
about her. The Papleav Chuck
and Frieda were also presented
with a bundle from heaven this
summer-we are keeping an eye
on these youngsters for future
membership in the ]. 5. North
erners
Bill Salmen is out of the hospi-
tai now and coming along fine -
hope you are well enough to come
Wednesday Bill.
Kay Mork and Cliff Speake are
newlyweds in our club after
honeymooning in New Orleans.
They are now settled in Chicago.
Helen Taub und Joe Schuller
became Mr.. and Mrs. this summer
also. Congratulations newlyweds
The club wishes you all the best
All you ten pin fans get ready
for a session with the "strike and
spare" kings-Dick Binder, Bob
Taub. Bill Salmen and brother
Danny and Bob Schuller-(we
ought to put them on an alley by
themselves)at the 10th Century
Bowling Alley and after a duel
with hard wood we relax in the
Rathskeller with refreshments
and dancing for all. Remember
kids, to be able to get enough
alleys for our crowd we'll have to
know how many are planning to
come and what day is suitable for
most of you to bowl, which is an
other reason that you all have to
be at the meeting Wednesday
SO be sure to come out! See you
them
Reporter! Deadline is Tuesday

Farm Equipment Dealers
To Boycott Frederick Fair

FREDERICK, Md, Aug. 13.-The
Central Maryland Farm Equipment
Association has notified the Freder-
lex County Agricultural Society 1t
will boycott this years fair in pro-
test against charges for exhibit
space.
The fair will open September 80
for one week. Charges are being
made for the first time this year
for farm machinery exhibit space.
The equipment association sent
the fair board a declaration signed
by 26 dealers who claimed to repre-
sent 80 per cent of the dealers in
Frederick, Carroll, Howard and
Montgomery Counties.
due to the fact that our exhibits
are expensive to set up and all ex-
penses must be borne by the deal
ers, we therefore pledge that we
will not exhibit at any time when
a charge is made for space" the
declaration said.
The fair board asserted the charge
would permit equitable allotment of
space
