Opening the four year regular enlistment program to women is the second step in a new program to give women in the Coast Guard an equal footing with men. The first step in this program was admitting women to the Coast Guard Officer Candidate school last February. To the limits of practicality, women who enlist will receive the same ten week training course as men at the Coast Guard Training Center, Cape May, N.J. Upon completing of basic training women will have the same opportunities for advanced training, promotions, pay and advancement as their male coun- terparts. At present the Coast Guard is only enlisting those women who desire and qualify for basic petty officer training schools in the field of yeoman, storekeeper, hospital corpsman, dental technician, photo journalism or musician. Other skill areas will open at a later date. It is hoped the enlistment of women will help curb the Coast Guards increasing manpower shortage. tures to the attention of Scout-ing- membership.

You may already have the perfect picture, of course. A shot of the family sailing, or skiing, your house in new-fallsnow, or a fresco of a Byzantine Madonna from last summers trip to Greece are all good candidates. Or you may want to create a picture specially to express your holiday wishes. For the benefit of friends and relatives, the family is the best choice of subject, although possibilities by no means end there. Why not try a shot of a particularly lovely Christmas angel or a little carved Swedish tree or the family pet peering through a Christ- -' mas wreath? No matter what your sub- ject choice, the key to a strik- ing card will be a simple, personal picture.
