i Coleman Starts Separating Process From Marine Corps SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Aug:. 24 UP. Capt. Jerry Coleman of the Marines started going through the process today that is expected to end with his release from the Marines within the next "day or two." Coleman showed up at Marine headquarters here this morning and then went to Treasure Island to continue the process. "It may take two or three days to complete the process," said a spokesman from the public information office. "The paper work is going to be slowed up somewhat because we just had 2,000 men come back on rotation; and the prisoners of war, who came" in yesterday, got preferential treatment. "Coleman will not get any special treatment. He will have to wait his turn." The New York Yankee infielder said that he would leave for the East with his wife and two young children as soon as he is separated. "Thats the main thing Im interested in right now," he" said. "I want to get started East with my family and find a place for them to live." : : ; i : ; :
