The Navy has pulled the 27.100-

placing the Antietam in what the
Navy calls its ready reserve"
like the Shangri-La and the 49,

ice has placed the Philippine Sea
in that status. It was explained
that the latter carrier, which has

it has a reduced crew. The crew.

the two f1attops. BY operating
Essex-class carriers in such a
status-without air groups and
men to man the guns, etc.-the
Navy figures it could put them
in full-scale battle readiness
within 10 days merely by aug
menting the crews. It requires
from 60 to 80 days to pull such
warships out of mothballs and
