Y.—Trying to boost his five feet three inches up to the stand- ard required for military service, Wil- is Hartman, a patriotic youth from Glenwood, near here, trled a form of elevation that almost got by the Unit- ed States marine corps recruiting offi- cers here. ‘Willis went through without a flaw until he stripped to be examined for scars, when the doctor discovered sev- eral layers of adhesive plaster and a small cotton pad under each heel that gave a “French heel effect” to the would be warrior. When it was re- moved he lacked one inch of meeting the required height. “I don’t want to be a slacker,” 8o 1 tried my best to enlist,” said Hartman when he was rejected. “The scheme would be all right, too,” he added, “if I could only make it stick.” REFUSE TO FIGHT.
