Bridgeport, Conn.-~Under the direc- tion of Rear Admiral William C. Cowles, retired, volunteer boys not yet of draft age and registered young men not called in the first quota of the na- tional army will be formed into a re- serve for the United States navy. Men equipped with naval knowledge have been selected to instruct in navi- gation, piloting, signallng and other accomplishments of a sailor. The re- cruits will be called for in every sea port town of Connecticut. America’s shipbuilding plan, Rear Admiral Cowles thinks, will soon create a great demand for navy recruits. If he can send trained young men into the breach the rear admiral believes he will be achiev- ing 'his “bit” as a retired officer. Rear Admiral Cowles is chairman of the military and naval committee of the Connecticut Council of Defense and naval aid on the staff of Governor Hol- comb.
