Train ing these young men and teach ing them to fly was our mission, and that we did our part well is proven by the proud records they established against the enemy. “To each of you, and those who served before you, generous credit is due and given for ac complishment of our mission. “My tour of duty with you has been a happy one as well as one of which I am very proud. I am sincerely appreciative of the loyal cooperation and tireless effort given by every officer, en listed man and woman, and Navy civilian worker. To those now in uniform who return to civilian life and to those who stay on in the Navy I extend very best wishes for happiness and success in the peaceful days ahead. By your contribution to ward establishing the peace you have earned it.” —College— (Continued from Page 1) School of Commerce. Dr. W. H. Plemmons, Admis sions Director, discussed the ad missions pattern for veterans and details involved in credits and transfers. The veterans’ con sultant on the campus, Ben Hus bands, spoke on veterans rehabi litation centers, and president of the student body Bill McKenzie told cadets about the student life they may expect. A discussion on expenses by Critical Housing At Coastal Ports Because of critical housing shortages in coastal cities, rel atives and families of returning servicemen are being urged by the Navy Department not to travel to debarkation ports to await arrival of the men from overseas. Travel to coastal ports for the purpose of meeting men return ing from overseas will result only in disappointment, since the Navy demobilization plan calls for returning men to Sep aration Centers in their own Naval Districts. In consequence, men will not be free to visit their families at coastal ports, but will move without delay to their own districts. Travel by dependents will only crowd the already overloaded transportation system and ham per the orderly operation of dis charge. Living accommodations in coastal ports are not and will not be available. Dischargees will, whenever possible, be routed to ports nearest their homes. E. S. Lanier was followed by an open forum. Information Center Cadets were told that an in formation center would be set up in the YMCA building by Secre tary Harry Comer, and were urged to take advantage of mod ern testing devices and profes sional counselling offered veter ans in Peabody Hall. The cadets were also urged to arrange for conferences with any of the student or faculty leaders who spoke to them. Athletic Policy Is Rjelaxed for Navy Tearas, Athletes Regulations governing Navy athletic teams and individual athletes were relaxed this week by Secretary of the Navy For- restal, whose new directive now makes it possible for Naval serv ice teams to travel outside their National Collegiate Athletic As sociation district and participate in certain benefit contests. Included in the benefit con tests are only those sponsored by the American Red Cross, a Com munity War Fund, the Army Relief, the Navy Relief, and the National Infantile, Paralysis Foundation, as part of their an nual fund-raising drives. Net profits are to be turned over to the sponsoring organization. Games or contests staged as part of government bond drives also are authorized. The directive, dated Sept. 7, also permits Naval teams and in dividuals to participate in any Amateur Athletic Union-spon sored event, or events conducted by any other recognized ama teur organization. Star athletes formerly were not permitted to compete in outside competition, particularly in exhibition match es. Naval personnel are not per mitted to compete in games, contests, or exhibitions con ducted by promoters or groups operating for purposes of per sonal financial gain. Competition with professional teams is authorized only when competition is staged on the Naval reservation to which com peting Naval personnel are as signed. Only exceptions to this regulation are the benefit games or bond drives mentioned above. Jap Casualties Top Five Million (SEA)—Jap army and navy casualties numbered about 5,- 085,000, according to a Japanese government spokesman, but at the end of the war the nation’s military strength was nearly three times that of Dec. 7, 1941. Japan ended the war with an army of 5,500,000 as contrasted with the 1,900,000 at the time of Pearl Harbor. Army casualties included 310,- 000 killed, 146,000 wounded, 4,- 470,000 sick, of which 40,000 died. The casualty list of the navy, including civilians in its service, was 157,365 killed, 1,430 dead from sickness, 1,483 missing, and no figures on wounded—total 160,278. The navy dead included 2,065 suicide pilots. Approximately 200,000 of the army dead committed suicide in face of capture or similar Nip “dishonor.”
