Veteran Officers Get Another Year to Qualify, With Only Physical Examination Required. The War Department has extended for one year the period within which veterans of the world war will be eligible for appointment, without ex- amination other than physical, in the Officers’ Reserve Corps of the Army, in @ grade not higher than that for- merly held by them. The previous time limit on that class of appoint- ments expired November 11, 1923. It was thought that three years would be ample time for the purpose, but experience has shown otherwise. Unexpected delays were encountered and the work of building up the or- ganized reserves was hampered by successive reductions of the Regular Army and lack of appropriations. —_— Fifty years ago wood pulp was just beginning to attract attention as a material for making paper. “PHILLIPS™ RESERVISTS FIGHT COLORED MAP WAR Reserve officers of the 3d Bat- talion of the 320th Infantry were given four situations in terrain ex- ercise last night in the local head- quarters in the Graham bullding by Lieut.
