Capt. Green, who was 4 practic ing physician in Chicago, is with the nrmy medical corps some where in the South Pacific. The couple have a 16-month-old son, Richard Martin. A WAY WITH HORSES Indianapolis (U.R) A small child walked over to a team of horses hitched to a city ash wagon, whispered something to thorn, and the driver of the wagon suddenly saw them go thundering down the street, leaving him witli 4 half-empty pall. The child said that she merely told them to "giddyup." By Courtanay Moor United Press Correspondent Washington (U.R) Young Navy enlisted men with inita- tive and ambition are going to have an increasing chance for commissions. A recent poll of the percent age of enlisted men who have become officers since Dec. 7, 1941, shows that they comprise nearly 45 per cent of the total number of men commissioned. Of these, 20 per cent had seen previous duty either afloat or ashore and the remaining 25 per cent were taken from civil life as enlisted men and trained officers. Since the beginning of the war, more and more enlisted have been appointed as war rant or commissioned officers, until now the Navy plans to draw "almost wholly" upon service sources for its officers. In the first rapid expansion of uie wartime navy, there was necessarily a limitation on the number of qualified enlisted men who could be appointed to officer status. The reason for this policy was that the chief petty officers and first class petty officers are the keystone of organization aboard Navy ships. Their services in the in termediate level of command were vital to the successful op eration of the forces afloat and thus the qualified men had to be restricted jn order not to strip the ships. Postwar Opportunities However, that situation has now been stabilized to a point where the only officers still taken from civilian life will be specialists, such as doctors, den tists, and chaplains, and young men as aviation cadets. All the rest wjll .come on the whole from the enlisted ranks. In the Navy of the postwar world, which 4will undoubtedly be a far larger one than ever before in U. S. history, there will be plenty of opportunities for naval careers for enlisted men as officers. A great many officers In the naval reserve will be mustered out at the end of the war and many of those billets will re quire filling.
