When M /Sergt. Anna Hagstrom
joined the Women Marines one of
her first jobs was the administra-
ton of large post exchange.
I'D never had any merchandise
ing experience in my life" she
said, but there I found myself
supervising clerks, keeping the
books and selling over the coun-
ter"
That was back in 1943 when
Sergt. Hagstrom was the first
woman in the Marine Corps to
take over a job as chief steward.
Now, with the Defense Depart
ment hitting for a goal of 10000
women in uniform by June, 1852,
Sergt. Hagstrom is doing another
big selling job. only this time
she's selling the Marine Corps
to young women anxious to help
their country in the present crisis.
The Marine Corps only trained
woman recruiter for the WASH
ington area, Sergt. Hagstrom s
base of operations is the recruit
ing center at Fourteenth street
and Pennsylvania avenue NV.
When she's not interviewing ap-
plicants there she's looking for
more via newspaper publicity,

Slim and attractive, Sergt.
Hagstrom approaches her job
with the alertness and enthusiasm
that are the hallmark Of good
marine"
Sold on Service Life
First of all. she herself is sold"
on the idea of service life. I've
tried both" she said, referring to
her four years out Of the service
following World War II. I'm
glad to be back. There's a chance
to travel-no danger of staying
in one place all your life in the
same job. There's always oppor-
tunity for. advancement. and
where else could you have as good
time? just meeting people is
an education"
When skeptical applicants ask
her the favorite question: How
much do you make as a private?"
she always comes back at them
with, Where else could you make
$75 in the clear every month";"
One of Sergt. Hagstrom's big
gest tasks is to convince dubious
parents of the security and safety
a service life offers daughters
interested in enlisting.
'JuSt about a week ago I was
stopped in the 5-and-10 cent store
by young clerk who asked me if
I wouldn't have a talk with her
mother, who was against her en-
listing in the Women Marines" +"
Sergt. Hagstrom recalled. II went
to the girls home that evening.
After I explained that not only
would her daughter be we'll su-
! pervised, but would have an op-
portunity for training and educa-
ton, the mother was convinced
and gave her permission"
New Troined Personnel
Sergt. Hagstrom is one of a
new batch of trained recruiting
personnel the Marine Corps is
turning out to meet present emer-
gency demands. With the idea
that "a woman would rather talk
to woman" its goal is total of
86 trained women recruiters in
the field.
Just graduated from a Six-week
course at the Marine Corps re-
.cruiting school at Paris Island,
S. c., Sergt. Hagstrom was taught
all techniques she needs for her
job
Her training included how to
write readable newspaper copy,
make convincing speech and put
on a 15-minute radio show, both
from the announcer's and the
sound engineers angle.

liam government changed the
entrance to Cleveland avenue and
the number of the embassy now
is 1920 Cleveland avenue. The
chancery was moved shortly after
the CaseyS took possession of
White Oaks to the northwest part
of the building and the entrance
on Woodland drive was used. Now
the offices are in the house at
3148 Cleveland avenue and White
Oaks is the residence of the
Ambassador.

High Commissioner to the Union
of South Africa and later High
Commissioner to London. He and
Mrs. Casey frequently have been

route to London conferences and
making their trips home by way
of the United States. There will

old friends see them again. They
will be in the Capital until De-
cember II and plan to be home in
time for Christmas.
The Ambassador and Mrs.
Spender were hosts yesterday to
SO guests, entertaining at cock
tails as a farewell for the First

fore they leave.
