On the first of three cruises which will be taken during the current Sum- mer for the purpose of training the offi- cers and mer of the 1st Battalion, United States Naval Reserves of the District of Columbia, the United States destroyer Abel P. Upshur left her berth at the Washington Navy Yard yester- day and today is steaming up _the Atlantic Coast for Newport, R. I. Upon arrival there, the ship will join the destroyers of the Atlantic Scouting Fleet, with which it will operate during the greater part of the two-week period that it will be away from here. Next Saturday and Sunday the ship will #pend at New York City, where the crew will be given liberty, preparatory to beginning the second week of the train- | ing period. during which the members | of the gun crews will fire their annual target practice. | The vessel was in the prime of con- dition when she left here, having just returned a couple of weeks before from | the Norfolk, Va., Navy Yard, where she had undergone an overhauling period of | about a month and during which the ! vessel was drydocked to have her under- | water hull scraped and painted, to| permit her to keep up her speed with the other destroyers during the war games which will be held off the New | England Coast. | All during the week active prepara-| tions were being made for the vovage. | as the officers and men finished their | work, held their final drills at the guns | while she lay at the quay at the local | yard, and made arrangements for the | annual leave from their civilian employment. During that period also the large quantity of stores necessary | for the comfort and welfare of the crew while at sea were loaded aboard, | as well as thousands of gallons of oil for fuel. Last Thursday night all of those| selected to make this cruise reported at the armory, on Eleventh street south- east, for the purpose of taking & physi- cal examination to determine their fit- ness for active service. While these examinations are usually held the night before the cruise starts, it was neces- sary to advance it one day on account of the July 4 holiday. | The crew reported aboard the vessel | early yesterday morning and as each| man came aboard officers handed him billet slips showing in detail where | each man would sleep, where he would | eat, what small boat he would take in | abandon ship, where his battle station was and other sea assignments. After getting settled in their new quarters, there was much to be done in the way of preparation for getting under way and the shrill call of the boatswain's pipe could be heard at frequent inter- vals as this important master of work called the men to duty. This kept up until the bugler'’s notes sounded all| hands to quarters and the ship slowly | nosed out into the stream and headed down the Potomac River and the Chesapeake Bay, passing out through the Capes early this morning gnd then headed nnrlhv\'nr% up the "Atlantic Coast for her rendezvous.

In addition to the officers of the Washington division, there was also assigned to m this cruise, Lieut. Harold E. Richardson, commander of the Headquarters Division, and execu- tive officer of the battalion. As no sep- arate cruise is provided for the Hud-[ quarters Division, it is necessary to apportion the personnel, for cruising | purposes, among the other voyages of the ship. | When . this vessel completes this | crulse two weeks hence, the ship will| remain at her berth here for a week | replenishing her stores, and then wil start the second week of the cruise | over the same itinerary with the 3d Fleet Division. ; Chief Radio Electrician F. B. Monar, | Headquarters_Division, left Friday for| Newport, R. I, where yesterday he re ported aboard the airplane carrie Wright for two weeks of sea training Upon completion of this duty, Chief Monar will be detached from the Wrigh at Newport and will return to Wash: ington to again be placed on an inac- tive status. It was said at the local Reserve head- quarters that a very large percentage | of the members of the 2d Division re. ported for the cruise this year, 50 of them having been issued orders to re- port for this training duty. Members of the Fleet Reserve are required to take two weeks of sea training each year for the purpose of maintaining efficiency, and failure to take this im- | portant training is usually made the | basis for transferring the men to the | Volunteer Reserve, where no regular | drilling is required, but also where | there is no pay. Willis E. Hatch, fireman, third class, | has been promoted to boilermaker, i second class. He is attached to the 2d | Fleet Division. The change in rating | was authorized by a special order of | the Navy Department, it was said. | Other officers, in addition to Lieuts. | Richardson and Shenier, who are on the current cruise are Lieut. Comdr. Walter C. Lockhart, chief engineer, and | Lieuts., Junior Grade, Homer O. Eimers | and Ralph H. Hudson. | All officers of the Naval Reserve arcl being encouraged to take the corre- spondence course in navigation which is being offered by the department. There are two courses, the B course | for beginners and the A course for those having experience in navigation. These courses are said to be open to any officer in the Reserve and to en- | listed men intending to take an exami- nation for a commission. Officers of the Merchant Marine Reserve are espe- clally urged to take either of these courses, a8 it is believed that this will | be of great assistance to them in their | own work. All officers, the department | says, should feel free to consult with | the officer in charge of the course re- | garding any matters relating to navi- | gation, whether they are taking the| course or not. It is added that un-| fortunately funds will not allow the| furnishing of books for these courses, | but they may be obtained at small cost. bers of the chairmen of the respective camp committees to the department chairmen of the following committees Press and _employment—James E Maynard, chairman, 3033 Sixteenth street.
