Pan-guitch. -USN- Opportunities for the high school graduate are greater today than ever before. For example, let me point out a few of the branches that the Naval service has to offer. Today, a high school graduate may be enlisted directly Into the medical oorps of the Navy, and after his period of Indoctrination he will be sent to the Navy Hospital Corps School at San Diego, California. If the graduate Is fortunate enough to hold a first aid certificate, he may be enlisted in the Medical corps as a Hospital Apprentice first class which is equivalent to the rating of corporal in the Army. The Navy has recently dropped the requirements for Class V-5 which is the Navy Air Corps. Two years of college are no longer neoes-sary-the high school graduate is eligible. -TJSN- Your Navy Recruiting station which is located In the Post Office building in Cedar City, will be happy hap-py to explain any branch of the service. -USN- Have you noticed the new station wagon that we are using now?
