The five job specialties, newly added to the enlistment program, include training for such duties as: Investigation of prison disturbances and escapes; Furnishing of recommendations for clemency, restoration to duty. or other disposition of prisoners; Traffic Control; and Crime and Accident Investigation. According to Major Owen B. Renfro, Officer in Charge of Marine Recruiting in the Tar Heel State, the Ground Guarantee Enlistment Program allows a qualified young man to choose from four occupational categories before enlistment. "Winthin these categories is a multitude of individual job specialties to which a Marine can be assigned and trained," the recruiting officer explained. Presently, Mariire Recruiters are authorixed to guarantee a qualified applicant training in one of these four categories; Combat and Combat Arms, Administrative Specialties, Electronics and Communications and Technical Specialties. Additionally, there is a separate guarantee program for those young men who achieve prerequisite test scores and wish to work in the Aviation field. A Marine enlistee who enters the Corps under the Aviation Guarantee may expect to train in jobs ranging from Helicopter Mechanics to Air Traffice Control. Sgt. Danny McLeod, the Marine recruiter for this area, is at the Courthouse in Murphy on Tuesdays from 10a.m. until 2 p.m., at the Courthouse In Robbinsville on the first and third Thursdays of the months, same hours; and is in Anthwws at the Town Hall each Tuesday from 2 until 3:30 p.m. CUZ'S CORNER By Bagley V you arc tender lease do not read this < mean, don't read it this weak, rait until next week. Why? a use this is a sad one. It is as ad I can hardly write it. K yon nd any errors in it they will ave been caused by my tears tiling on the paper and lurring it so the (oiks that an ?ytng to set it up for the papers can't tell how it is supposed to read. Now I haven't been able to flgoe out what causes the bobbles in the funny columns. Maybe they occur when they get tickled real good and tears come in their eyes and drip down on the copy. And I can just hear some of you saying that all my columns are kinda sad. Rather, I think you are just tenderer hearted than the rest of the folks that read it and you probably cry a lot easier than most. On the other hand you might have meant that sarcastically and if you did - but I haven't time to argue with you now. I have to get on with this sad story. And if you don't shed tears over this one it just means you have a thumping gizzard instead of a heart. This is about one of them dry-eyed funerals. You have probably been to some of these kinda funerals, too, IH bet. You know, where nobody does any crying a tall. These are the worst kind to go to. And if I had my way about it I never would attend one of these. Would you? I had a lot rather go to them where everybody cries and hollers and has a good time. I never will forget going to one of these dry-eyed ones one time. It was just the worst one I was ever at. The fellow that was dead was an ole reprobate, an ole ne'er-do-well, and a real genuine stinker. And everybody in the community said that if he ever did die, you see we all figured he was too mean to die, but he finally did anyhow - well, we all thought there wouldn't be enough folks that would care to be able to Find six men to tote him to his hole. In fact, he was so mean and ornery that we doubted anybody would even dig him one. When he finally did kick off some of the folks did dig one for him and they finally got six fellows that promised to tote him to his hole, but only because they were anxious to see that he was in one. I never knew preachers could be so busy as every one in the whole country seemed to be when word got out that ole Sefe had died. Finally they found a young preached who had not heard of old Sefe and he agreed to come and preach over him. And he did. News got out that this young preacher was gonna do the preaching and there was a pretty good turn out after all. Even some of them "busy preachers" came to hear him. It amounted to a kind of Trial Sermon for this young preicher. Well, he got started off sorts nervously. He was anxious to make a good impression as he was new at this business and kinda in?Hng "round for him a Church. He "real good prayer. He was pleading with the Laid about comforting the hearts of the bereaved. He prayed this matter over a right smart ?nger than it took anybody to get over their bereavement. Tnen he led a song, "Nearer My God to Thee," but we all knew that this young preacher was confused about the direction ole Sefe was headed. After that song he looked the congregation over to see if anybody had started crying. Nobody had, so then he led "Shall We Gather at the River." Still no tears, so he started preaching. And he preached and preached. I believe he must have thought that unless he could preach 'em to tears he wasn't doing no good a tall. And it looked like he meant to keep on until he got somebody to squalling. My Aunt Lula realized this too, so she set in to weeping and wailing. And I might say right here that she was mighty good at it too. In fact, you just couldn't hardly have a funeral nowhere in the community without Aunt Lula. She was such a good weeper and waiter. Usually she could get everybody started. I guess you could say that she led the weeping and wailing like the song leader does the singing. Anyhow she was taking on so that this young preacher finally hushed and asked if someone wouldn't please go and comfort the "poor sister." Nobody made a move cause we all knew that she didn't give a "tinkers" about ole Sefe, and that she was just putting on. Finally Papa got up and came over to her and whispered in her ear loud enough for her to hear, as well as several others that were sitting in her vicinity. "Shut yore mouth." Then he patted her on the shoulder a time or two and went on back to his seat. Aunt Lula raised her head up, dabbed her eyes that were as dry as my pocket, blowed her nose, punched me in the side with her elbow, and took a song book out of the rack. Thenlhad to hide my face, not beaiuae I was squalling, though. It took nearly all I could do to keep from laughing out loud at Papa and Aunt Lula. Along about here the preacher must have realized that something was haywire cause he hushed in another minute or two and they took ole Sefe on out and buried him.
