Mike,
You do it exactly like I do. Might cost a frame, but it's reliable.

Hi Guys,
This can be achieved more efficiently without losing a frame.
1) Insert film leader in sprocket holes.
2) Advance a couple frames.
3) Pull film canister into film supply slot. (Note that this automatically
takes up the film slack.)
4) Close camera back.
5) Finish film advance to frame #1.
6) Blow through roll of film and repeat as many times as required or
until you run out of film.
This came courtesy of Petersen's Photographic magazine's How-To issue nearly
a decade ago. ;-)
