CLASSIC COMFORTER

Although the afghan re-
ceived its greatest promi-
nence during the Victorian
era, it had its beginning way
before that time. Lap robes
have existed for hundreds
and hundreds of years, but
exactly when the name
afghan" was applied to
them is unknown. Possibly
this term entered the English
language at the time of the
British campaign in Afghan
istan when the soldiers pur-
chased shawls made Of AZ
CHAN goats hair for their
wives and sweethearts back
home. This was in the 1905,
and since then, handmade
wool coyerlets Of all kinds
have been referred to as
"afghans."

Finally, it got too much for me. So,
two years ago, decided to revisit

in front of his hotel by this time
and was about to 60 in when he
suddenly changed his mind. turned
around and looked at the late
afternoon 10 that seemed to be set
ting afire the skyscrapers on lower
Manhattan. His manner changed
abruptly. He was no longer a jovial
man who had gone to visit his old
home town. His pale blue eyes
were blazing, his finely chiseled
face was set. He was a prophet.
Il have spent" he said gravely,
''as strenuous a life as any man
surviving three wars and two

for a moment, did / lose faith in
Americas future. Time and time

Druftees
By Moi. Thomas M. Mol

| W NlOI. tHOtHoS W. tNtoV
The armed forces, particularly
the Army and the Air Force, are
having trouble trying to figure
out what to do with all the Of
f1cers on active duty.
The trouble seems to be two
headed:
1. Congress has told the serv-
ices to cut manpower by next
July l.
2. They are turning out off,
GERS from colleges, service aca-
denies and officer candidate
schools too fast to be absorbed
in the gap left by those leaving
active duty. Such men are re-
quired to serve a certain amount
of active duty after they are
commissioned.
The first sign of trouble came
when the Air Force announced
that college juniors enrolled in
its Reserve Officer Training
Corps would have to take fight
training or drop out. 1t said it
just wouldn't have spots for all
the ground officers due to be
commissioned next year. After
these men receive commissions
as second lieutenants they are
required to serve two years.
However, the Air Force must
F.. absorb between now and July l
about 5000 men with ROTC
commissions. To add this num-
ber to its officer strength, the
Air Force estimates, it would
have to drop about 12,500 officers
now on active duty.
Wedding Out Due.
To make room for the ROTC
officers the Air Force says it
will ease it's policies to allow
some officers now serving to re-
sign their commissions. Older
officers will be weeded out also
if their records show them to
be below average.
/ The Army and the Navy won't
have to revamp their ROTC pro-
grams or plans for this year to
meet such a situation. Army
ROTC officials do say they may
have some trouble absorbing
next June's crop of graduates
but that is too early to tell how
much.
/ Another sign of trouble came
when the Army said it would re-
lease about 5000 surplus Off
GERS during the next few months.
It will continue its officer candi-
date schools, but on a reduced
scale, and call only a minimum
number of officers involuntarily.
Volunteers Accepted.
To make this cut possible, the
Army says it will allow men
serving on extended tours to
voluntary leave active duty in
all but a few critical specialties.
/ If this method doesn't relieve
the Army of all 5000 surplus Of
/ ficers, selection boards will de-
termine which men to ask to
leave active duty.
Although all grades of Army
officers will be considered for
release. most Of those actually
released will be first lieutenants.
Men selected in this manner
will be given three months no.
tice before they're separated.
The Navy is expected to re-
lease 5000 to 5000 surplus Of
f1cerS, the Marine Corps about
500.
