HARFUSBURG TELEGRAPH YORK NEAREST MARINE STATION Many Harrisburgers Consid ering Entering This Attrac tive Arm of Service Although the present week has been designated as Marine Week by the President, no local recruiting station has been opened. Several in quiries have been received at the navy station, but it is necessary to make applicatin through the York recruiting office. The marine corps is one of the most attractive branch es of the naval service and It is ex pected that Harrisburg, wnich has contributed so nobly to every branch of the government service, will not be in the background in furnishing marines. Enlistments at the army recruit ing station yesterday were below normal. Monday is usually one of the best days of the week for re cruiting, but only seventy-nine were enlisted yesterday. Francis P. Fogarty, who has been taking some time to make up his mind, last evening decided to go, within thirty minutes of train time. Didn't even have time to send word to the family, but was examined and sent a message to his relatives to the effect that he had already left the city. His sister later visited the recruiting station and tearfully in quired if it was true. When lieuten ant Lesher replied in the affirma tive she said it was all her fault be cause she had always been banter ing him to go "and now he's gone and done it." l'esterday's honor roll follows: David P. Yost, 1827 Susquehanna street, infantry; Luarie G. Bitting, 2221 North Sixth street, cavalry; Francis P. Fogarty, 2332 Ellerslie street, field artillery'; Edgar F. Schnee, Palmyra, infantry; Benja fflin S. McNalr, Emmittsburg, field artillery; Dewey W. Zeigler, Ross ville, cavalry; Bertram E. Croft, Shippensburg. infantry; Mike Ajov noc, Duncannon, Infantry. Seventeen Enrolled Seventeen mechanics have been j enrolled by Lieutenant Joseph ' Wheeler for the new truck company j , to be formed in this city as a unit of j the National' Guard. John L. Gal- i lagher, a Jitney driver, was the first j man who convinced Lieutenant Lieutenant Wheeler of his ability to j handle an army truck under slightly ; different conditions to the free and 1 happy life of the Jitney man. Lieutenant Wheeler this morning commented on the exceptional high grade type of men who have ap- 1 plied for enlistment. Most of them are skilled automobile mechanics, many of them making large salar j ies in civil life but all willing to give Uncle Sam the benefit of their mechanical knowledge which is so much In demand the world over at the present time. The men who have been accept !ed to date are as follows: John L. Gallagher, John R. Grobe, Lester i A. Ebersole, Ralph C. Black, clerk; I , Ray B. Wilson, Joseph I. Claster, i Harold J. Astrich. Weslev de Yal inger, Marlin A. Landis. Joseph B. Beidleman, Mark S. Phillips. Her man A. Early, Tryon E. Benner, Lloyd R. N'ey, Charles A. Shoffner, Thomas E. Middleton, Spencer J. Ross.
