Plan to replace overseas units with bonded battalions
Washington reports the army will shift to a buddy system and replace individual overseas tours with battalions trained together from basic schools. The aim is to give soldiers a stable unit and ease combat cohesion while not tapping existing reserve outfits. The plan mirrors steps used in returning divisions from Korea, forming self contained battalions with their own officers and NCOs.

Replacement pools governed WWII and Korea unit calls
In World War II and Korea the individual GI was placed in a replacement pool and held until a front line unit requested replacements. He then joined a new outfit only to find no one he had previously seen.

Request To Drop Rate Increase Petition In Indiana
The Public Service Commission has taken under advisement the request by Indiana Gas & Water Co. to dismiss its rate increase petition for a 4.23 percent rise in natural gas rates in 59 central and southern Indiana communities. The public counselor urged ignoring the petition and ordering a rate decrease, arguing the utility could later petition for a reduction and noting cheaper gas from Panhandle Eastern Pipeline Co. would raise net income. Separately, Overseas Airman third class James L Williams, 19, son of Mr. and Mrs Katy Fletcher, left for California for a two week visit before reporting to Okinawa. He is a former Anderson High School student, enlisted in May 1952, stationed at Mather AFB. Traffic accidents killed 452 in Indiana this year through Sunday midnight, down from 507 last year, with rural and urban fatalities totaling 348 and 104 respectively. Pakistan’s independence noted in 1947.
