feated Renfrew by the score of
6 to 2.

Perry Rampey, veteran right-
hander pitching for the Slater
nine, gave up 10 hits but kept
them well-scattered in holding
the Renfrew aggregation to 2
runs. Anderson, Renfrew twirl-
er, gave up only 9 hits, but the
Slaterites were able to bunch
theirs with men on bases and
thus were enabled to score 6
runs.

Batting honors were shared
by Bill Cashion, of Slater, and
Foster and Wood, of Renfrew,
with each getting 2 hits out of
3 times at bat, one of Foster's
hits being a two-bagger. Pearl
Ledford and Taylor, of Slater,
both had 2 hits out of 4 times
at bat, each getting a two-bag-
ger. Brown, of Renfrew, also
had 2 hits out of 4 times at bat,
one of his being a double.

Fielding features of the game
were contributed by Fred Cash-
ion in left field in a catch of a
ball near the foul line, which
robbed a Renrewite of a pos-
sible double. Taylor, Slater
first baseman, took a line drive

Reserve Outfit
Plans Announced

(Reprint from Sea Clippper,
15 June 1946)

A two weeks annual cruise to
foreign ports on modern com-
bat ships, advancement in rank
or rating while receiving pay
for weekly training activities
and association with a splendid
group of men are among the
opportunities offered members
of the post war Navy reserve.

The 1,000,000-man Reserve
will consist of a highly trained
Organized Reserve and a Vol-
unteer Reserve trained on a
voluntary basis. Both will in-
clude surface, submarine and
air components.

Specialist groups will com-
prise intelligence, fire fighting,
civil engineering, ordnance,
and harbor defense. A Mer-
chant Marine component will
operate under the Volunteer
Reserve and the Waves will
have a place in the over-all
program.

Maximum strength of the
Organized Reserve will be ap-
proximately 25,000 officers and
175,000 men, while the Volun-
teer Reserve will have a
strength of 800,000 officers and
men.

Personnel Eligible

Eligible for enlistment in the
Naval Reserve are World War
II veterans of all branches of
armed services, qualified tech-
nical civilians and USN enlist-
ed men when they are dis-
charged at the expiration of
their enlistments. Naval vet-
erans will be enlisted in the
Reserve for inactive duty in
the rate held at time of dis-
charge from active duty.

[column 5]

Each year new men will be
enrolled and some members
separated in the turnover of
organization within age brack-
ets that will insure physical fit-
ness for sea duty in time of
war.

Composed of about 13 officers
and 200 enlisted men, the Or-
ganized Reserve surface unit
will be the division.

The two weeks annual train-
ing will be either afloat or
ashore depending on the spe-
cialty of each individual. On
the 14-day summer cruises for
shipboard training, phases of
instruction that can be ade-
quately performed only at sea
will be emphasized.

A series of one-night-a-week
instruction periods, utlizing
modern equipment and training
aids will be given members of
the Organized Reserve. While
Volunteer Reservists are not
obligated for any training, they
will have the opportunity, with-
in quotas, to participate in the
weekly instruction as well as
the summer cruises.

Volunteer Organization

The Volunteer Reserve will
contain officers and men of the
same classifications and rates
included in the Organized Re-
serve, as well as specialists. In
addition to officers qualified for
general duties, the Volunteer
Reserve will include older offi-
cers no longer qualified for gen-
eral duties and officers whose
civil life does not permit reg-
ular participation in the Or-
ganized Reserve.

On request, the Director of
the local district Naval Reserve
will put personnel on the mail-
ing list for periodic informa-
tion of naval interest and keep
