We are wondering who will
volunteer to build a pair of stilts
for Pvt. Kaschub. Pvt. R. Peter-
son is engaged fo one gal, and is
“sweating out” another. What
goes on'? How come Pfc. Louis
Bari quiets down when John
enters the dayroom? Pvt. Elmer
Sevic must be a 30-year man. At
least he has a lifer haircut.
Who is the T/5G. who has seen
“Ride ’Em Cowboy” three times?
We wonder if a pair of spurs
will help.
We were pleasantly surprised
to see Lt. R. Tqylar again after
his absence. The boys think a lot
of him, and we hope to see him
with a fully recovered arm soon.
After listening to Pfc. Alfred
Addison talk of Breese, Ill., for
24 hours a day, we have come
to the conclusion that it is his
home town. He is also the ab-
sentee father of a baby girl. Con-
grats.
Staff Sgt. Olsen is known as
“Second Front.” Can it be because
he is the Mess Sgt.? Who is Pvt.
Jesus Roman’s main heart throb?
His fan mail has increased re-
cently. What n man!
Who is the girl that Pvt. Leslie
Rusht is boasting about? Why is
T/5G. Gene Husnick always sing-
ing? Could it be he is lovesick?
We wish to extend our best
wishes to T/5G. Francis Cooper
for getting the job of Clerk. We
are all for you, Frank.
The swimming pool Is coming
filtfng fine, and the boys are proud
of their work.
Pfc. Lon Bari & Pfc. A. Addison.
This is rather late, Captain,
but we do wish to give heart-
felt congratulations to you and
your, vyffe on the birth of a
daughter. “Congratulations! Capt.
and Mirs. William Thorkelson.”
Was Corp. Russell’s face red
when caught in a recent inspec-
tion with his pants down? Bet-
ter luck next time, Corp. .
Corp. Test.
Corp. George Sibilian is study-
ing to be a bathing beauty ex-
pert picker. He has a wide assort-
ment of pictures in his collec-
tion that w* all gaze upon with
envy.
Sgt. Harvey Macullar is back
with us after his short absence.
And Pvt. “Nick” Denisewicz be-
lieves be w’ould just as soon re-
turn and be under the care of
the nurses for the duration.
We suggest that Sgt. Vardaro
be drafted to cook some Italian
spaghetti for lovers of this de-
licacy.
Corp. Morris Gershman and
Pvt. Bernard Chesson hope to re-
turn to New Haven after the war
and don those stylish college
clothes again around the Eli
Yale Campus.
Our library was organized this
week with Pvt. Bob Niepow as
Librarian. We have been pro-
mised a good collection of read-
ing material.
Pvt. Van Den Berg, now a mem-
ber of R.S.O., has been doing
right well since giving up his
S.S. job. Staff Sgt. Lund says
he’ll soon become his best man.
T/5G. Hatzel is now known as
“Stripes.”
On mail days Staff Sgt. Vercoe,
Sgt. Snell and T5/G. Thomas are
the most popular men around.
Everyone has at least one ques-
tion to ask each.
T5/G. Ross D. Kingsley.
Air Corps
When the mail orderly yells
"Mail Call,” we all come a run-
ning. As the names were called,
the respective “heres” were
shouted out in gusto. Many a
fella can be seen sitting on his
bunk looking at his package with
the label saying, “Do not open
’til Xmas,” and wondering if it
will pay to comply with the re-
quest. Too bad if any of the
contents are perishable,- but I
know one fella who is actually
wafting till Xmas morn to open
his.
Famous Sayings of the Week:
Tech. Sgt. Soska, “I’m here
again.” “The Group Snoop,” bet-
ter known as “Frank the Peep-
er,” Staff Sgt. Edsall, “So what
if I am a ‘Rah Rah’ boy?”
Aside to Corp. Steele: “When
are you going to shave that com-
petition to Gable that is now
running wild on your upper lip.
Wien I take a quick look at you
and 1st Sgt. Cunningham, be-
lieve me, you look like twins.
Staff Sgt. Shirey, “Why do they
call you ‘Fudgy’?”
Staff Sgt. Peter Kosyk.
It is rumored that Sgt. Tom
‘Commando’ Pooley keeps in of-
fensive training by getting in a
little bayonet practice daily —
by cutting bread for sandwiches!
Do not be surprised if, when
you enter one of the supply of-
fices, you are greeted with “Buen-
os dias, Senor; Que quiere usted?”
It seems the office force is spend-
ing three nights a week in an
effort to digest the Spanish lang-
uage.
Not to be outdone by others
in the outfit who also got crew
haircuts, the kitchen force sudd-
enly went ‘all-out’ and had their
heads shaved bare! We under-
stand that, although he went into
it entirely voluntarily, Charlie
Chase had to be chained into the
barber-chair while ‘Bo-Bo’ Dris-
coll, one of his recent victims,
got extreme satisfaction out of
applying the razor to the barb-
er’s noodle. While others are be-
ing cut down to crew-cuts, these
boys are now growing up to one!
What They Want for Christ-
mas: Santa Claus, please bring
Frank Borowski a new set of
false teeth, for Sunday and holi-
day use! The Corps, would like
to see some more Pvts. doing
KP. Please find ‘Iggy’ Clover’s
‘lil wabbit’. The Mr. Sgts. would
like some room to advance. Tony
Dolcimoscola would like a letter
from his girl-friend convincing
him that the Coast Guard is not
convoying her around. And
everybody would like a six-
month furlough.. .twice a year!
Corp. Don Groth.
Jinx Falkenberg, triple-threat
1 actress, model and tennis play-
er, mounts the lifeguard’s tower
at Virginia Beach, Calif., and
whistles at bathers who go out
too far in the breakers. It’s all
in fun, but Jinx cuts quite a
fancy figure in that bathing suit,
doesn’t she?

For voluntary buying of War
Bonds Sgt. Langridge’s boys are
leading the field with almost
100%. It must be something in
those packages they get, because
just recently two of the boys»
Pvt. Albert Oakes and Pfc. Way
Welch, were given the blue rib-
bon for extra good work while
walking a beat.
“Kenosha” Kammerzelt will be
a big man some day. Trying to
put on his garrison feathers the
other day, he found that some
burlap would be needed before
the buttons met in front.
Good luck to “Stuffy” Smith on
his furlough. With his tales from
Tennessee, he should really snow
them.
Pfc. AVm. R. Cremens.
Corp. Kruse is expecting a let-
ter from the g.f. with bad news.
We understand he is contem-
plating suicide by starvation. To
that, T/4G. Rogers exclaims,
“What a horrible death that
would be.”
A sample of the advantages of
wedlock came to light at mail
call last week. 1st Sgt. Winter’s
and T/5G. Jones’ spouses came
through with Christmas gifts
galore.
There is no doubt T/4G. Ely’s
Christmas Cards will WOW the
home folks again this year.
Now that the truck entrance
is moved, T/5G. Swafford does
not enjoy his early morning driv-
ing duties. It was his great plea-
sure to gun the big Mac in front
of our attached ladies hut at 3
or 4 in morning.
Lt. Wright and Lt. Barlock are
testing their manhood by grow-
ing foliage under the nose. At
this writing Lt. Wright is lead-
ing by a hair.
Corp. Don Fisher.
Was it Pvt. Silguerio who al-
armed the camp t’other night
with the startling news he’d
found a BABY in his bunk? In-
cidentally, the baby after closer
investigation, turned out to be
McClain’s pink, bald head pro-
truding from beneath the covers.
“Oh why,” wails Simon Aguirre,
“doesn’t that man get a toupee!”
Our boy Meads finally comes
into the limelight with the
thought provoking query that if
George Washington was such an
honest man, what the hell do
they close all the banks for on
his birthday?
Why did Pfc. Magana have to
break out in a profusion of list-
less chatter in the dead o’ night;
thereby provoking “Popito” Gar-
cia to hie himself to the Mess
Hall to resume his slumbers?

Williams and “Pineknot” Low-
ery, the English language isn’t
to be tinkered with; keeping in
mind that neck is spelled NAKE,
and Nazi is pronounced with a
long ‘A’ and long ‘I’, sound all
four ‘R’s in Chicago, and put the
accent on AR in Army. “Pine-
knot” was the boy who started
out checking for trouble on a
half-mile line, and ended up at
the end of one ten miles long.
“Got my wires crossed,” moans
Lee.

triumph in their neighborhood
meeting with Boston U. this P.M.
Georgia and Georgia Tech, al-
ready sighting their big guns on
next Saturday’s critical match at
Athens, prepare for the year’s
most important game by facing
Auburn and Florida, respective-
ly, today. Some idea of their
comparative strength may be
gleaned from the Georgia Tech-
Florida skirmish since the Bull-
dogs overwhelmed Florida, 75 to
0, earlier in the season.
Three intersectional games
headline today’s Eastern activity
as Fordham plays Missouri,
Temple battles Oklahoma, and
West Virginia tests Michigan
State. The Cadets of West Point
swing into action against Prin-
ceton in preparation for next
week’s Army-Navy classic at
Annapolis, while the Middies
are idle.
Texas Christian, which hand-
ed Texas U. its first conference
setback Saturday, 13 to 7, re-
turns to the gridiron today
against Rice.. The Longhorns and
Texas A. & M. enjoy a vacation
this afternoon, but Baylor con-
fronts Southern Methodist in the
Southwest’s co-feature.
On the West Coast, three
games are expected to shed a
little light on the Rose Bowl
question. UCLA encounters
Washington; Oregon and Ore-
gon State, both soundly spanked
last week, meet for the “state
title,” and Stanford’s rejuvenated
eleven ventures into California’s
lair at Berkeley.
