This announcement was cer In Charge, today. It was pointed out in the announcement that boys whb have reached the age of 17 may apply for enlistment as volunteers in •the' Marine Corps Reserve and if found acceptable they wlll^ be sent to the Marine Training base at Parris Island where they .will be trained for duty in the Marine Corps. These boys must have the consent of their par ents or guardians and furnish a birth certificate. It is possible under the current arrangemmit to send approxi mately half of tbie men who are ac cepted immediately to Parris Island for training. The balance will be las- slgned to inactive duty' and rftumed to th^r homes for a waiting period of approximately 60 days. Captain Clark urges that all boys who can qualify, contact the Marine Corps Re cruiting Station at Columbia Immedi ately In order that they may come un der the provisions of the 168th Anni versary program of the Marine Corps. This anniversary celebration will be a program open to the public, to be hAid Jn tha Stale Housp at Columbla- at 4:30 p. m., Nov. 10, 1943. The first unit of Marines was authorized by an act of the^ Ckmtinental ^^ongrescr on November 10, i775. During the course of its colorful existence, the Marine Corps ■ has participated in almost every major-engagement In which the United States has been involved. Ma rines have protected American Inter ests all over the face of the earth since they were formed, having made more than 200 actual landings on for eign soil. From the Halle of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli covers only a small portion of the activities of the Marine Corps. Captain Clark calls attention to the fact that a Marine is perhaps one of the best trained men in our armed forces because the Marine Corps is a comparatively small organisation and each member must be efficient and versatile. He must have an under standing of all arms and become ex pert in their use. In order to do this a raafr enter!^ the Marine Corps as a volunteer must be physically fit, mentally alert and have a good moral background. The announcement urged that all 17 year old boys who are eli gible take immediate steps tokrard their enlistment and the first twenty accepted will be allowed to give their choice of leaving for Paris Island im mediately or returning home for the waiting period.'
