A reassignment is the selec tion of an employee to serve in a different position of the same grade or salary in the same agency to the vacant posi tion. A reinstatement is a effected when a former government em ployee who resigned from a position within three years of his appointment and with three years of the date he re signed is selected to fill a position.

Direct-Hiring occurs when there is an urgent need to fill a position and eligibles are not available on the registers, the Civil Service Commision may authorize an agency to recruit and hire any person qualified for a position. In direct hiring, the agency accepts applications and makes selections from them on the basis of qualifications for the position to be filled. Veterans must be considered before nonveterans.

Your Weekly Horoscope October 9 through October 15, 1971 ARIES (March 21-April 19); Try not to teeter during first two days, Ari, or by midweek you'll be a tottering wreck. It is good to keep moving, pet, but there is more than up and dawn. There is back and forth, and around and around not to mention over and out. Use your noodle and by end of week you will be moving in the right direction AHEAD TAURUS (April 20-May 20); If you're an older Taurus, you wonder what has become of yesteryear, don't you? When you and the world were green. Well, cheer up, dear, the sun will shing again, and the moon, too.. And when that time comes you will be in an even better position to than when you were younger. You'll wafm in the sunshine and bask in the maonglow. •*' GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Love is pn its way. Gem, and Olga's advice is to accept, except. A lit tle love will certainly raise your saggmg morale, and at the same time it may prove h&althful, by lowering your blood pressure, CANCER (June 21-July 22). You run, Moonlove, but there is no escaping one who pursues. There are not enough places left to hide. Perhaps a con frontation is in order, on neutral ground, of course. To protect your best interests, invite a third party to accompany you. One whose judgment and sense of fair play are respected by your daily associates. LEO (July 23-August 22); Don't be depressed in week ahead, Leo honey. Leo is NEVER a loser, cf least not in the final shuffle. Check carefully into your afiairs(?) and no doubt solution to what's bug ging you will be found Week in general is rather tacky. Sorry, love, but you can't expect to lick the frosting bowl EVERY time a cake is baked, you know. VIRGO (August 23-September 22): If last few days have been lemons, Virg, perk up. Weeping and wailing won't help one whit. However, if put on a cheery face and go forth and spread a little joy, you may be in for a nice surprise. Like maybe find ing someone rather jazzy across a crowded room. LIBRA (September 23-October 22): Ideal week far you, Lib, to. take care of broken fences, and promises. Key to success is tenderness. You are at heart a gentle, loving person. In days ahead, give. But give without reserve, as the beautiful autumn flowers give of their fragrance, asking nothing in return SCORPIO (October 23-November 21): Memories haunt in week ahead, Scorp. Stabs of pain are re lieved from time-to-time by tiny stabs of pleasure. Do not lean on daily associate for emotional sup port. This oaf has the backbone of a piece of cooked spaghetti. YOU are the strong one, Scorp. Share your strength with weak-kneed buddy. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 -December 21): Now look, Saj, you had your little fling last week. But your fling has been flung ana now it's back to business. And not the monkey type either. REAL business, baby. Otherwise, Good Time Saj will be in a mess beyond compare So knuckle down. CAPRICORN (December 22-Januarv 19): Cap, if you have not been taking good care of yourself, not getting enough rest, or not eating properly, prepare to accept the consequences. You may deceive your family and friends, but CRASH, RUMBLE, BAM. It's not NICE to fool Mother Nature. AQUARIUS (January 20-february 18): If roman tic involvement appears to be withering, cut it from the vine, Aquari, thus you salvage your pride, at least. And though your heart may be heavy, walk aw ay. Quickly and with style, PISCES (februaiy 19-March 20): Don't ever worry about drowning in your own tears, Pisces. There is not a chance. Being a fish, you're an ex pert swimmer. In week ahead, you'll float like a cork even though domestic waters may be rough.
