Is there any time for athleticsl
on board ship? Yes, the Navy|
encourages athletic competition.
Each ship has an officer in charge
of athletics who is assisted by a
committee of officers in arrang—
ing contests. On most ships there
are boxing, wrestling, basketball
and baseball teams. Tournaments
are often held within the Fleet,
with the various winners receiv-
ing trophies as awards.
How many signal alphabets are
used in the Navy? Three. They
are the flag, the semophore andl
the International Morse.» A sea-

tional emergency as their services
can be spared, regardless of the
length of time remaining in their
enlistment. If the emergency ends
within a period of several months,
those enrolled in the Naval Reserve
will not be required to complete
their 4 year term in active service.
Opportunities for advancement,
to learn skilled trades, for travcl
and adventure are identical
whether a man enlists in the reg-
ular Navy or the Naval Reserve,
and his pay, food, clothing, medi—
cal and dental care are the some.
County Farmers

“This SuI'ch will likely be quite
typical of other counties through-i

Chairman Rau. “When farmers arc

At a meeting of delegates who

Are there any library facilities
on the ships of the U. S. Navy?
ch, every ship in the U. S. Navy
is equipped with a library. These
libraries vary in size depending
on the type of ship; for example,
,a battleship rates 2,000 volumes
land a submarine with its small
complement of men rates 150.
IDuring the past year the Navy
bought more than 114,000 new
books for its libraries ashore and
on shipboard.
How did the name “tar” orgi-
inate? In the days of wooden
ships and iron men, it was cus-
tomary for sailors of the U. S.
and all nations to soak their
‘ trousers in tar in order to water-
proof them. From this custom the
nickname “tar” originated.
