Organization Mews
Glamour is the word for Rosalind Russell. She’ll soon be
seen here in Columbia’s “What A Woman,” the story of an
actor’s agent.
From all appearances, Cpl.
Knapp and Cpl. McCurray’s fur-
loughs were rousing successes.
A keen interest has been creat-
ed along this line....T/4 Hasa
is having trouble with his corre-
spondence. We suggest he give
the chips a rest....T/5 Curtis
has found that all engines will
function best if all parts are re-
placed... .Pvt. Talasso is quite
an expert on stoves and fixes
them in his sleep... .We heartily
welcome Sgt. Eusken back to
camp and it might be said that
he is a picture of health... .T/5
McDilda is once more enjoying
the local scenery and added at-
tractions. He boasts of being a
keen judge of Icelandic beauties.
S/Sgt. Trimble.
To the whirl of social activi-
ties at this organization can be
added USO Camp Shows’ pre-
sentation of “Sunny Side Up”
and a well attended beer party.
“Sunny Side Up” started the
ball rolling with its program of
acrobatic dancing, mental wizar-
dry, vanishing eggs and good old-
fashioned singing. Packed with
action and humor throughout, it
afforded us one of our most
pleasant evenings for some time.
Our beer party brought many
old friends together, some who
had been separated for months.
A lively entertainment program
made for a bang-up party. The
AAA orchestra gave out with the
music, supplemented during the
breaks with Sgt. Main at the
piano, and Pvts. Effenberger and
Gray with their guitars. Pvt.
Kuyper sang several songs and
added much merriment to the af-
fair when he led the men in
renditions of old favorites.
Sgt. Lawrence £9 Bryant.
Signal Corps
Just after nine soldiers in a
Signal Corps outfit at Keflavik
finished painting their hut so
that it really looked fancy, the
intricacies of war made it nec-
essary for them to move. The
result — the following poem
which appears in their unit pap-
er, “The Transmitter”:
Nine little Gee-Eyes
Took a look around,
Thought the hut looked gloomy,
And took a trip to town.
Nine little Gee-Eyes
Into their jeans dug down,
Bought some paint and color
On their trip to town.
Nine little Gee-Eyes
Came hiking back from town,
Hut still looked gloomy,
So they slapped brush and
paint around.
Now, nine little Gee-Eyes
Are still sitting ’round,
After certain orders
Made them sick of paint and
town.
Hedies
What cook in the patient’s mess
waited up till the wee hours of
the morning to celebrate his
birthday only to find that he
should have bravoed the event
on the day before? Happy birth-
day T/5 James Sutton.
The boys in the cast of our re-
cent hit, “Sex Takes A Holiday,”
take this opportunity to thank Lt.
Alice Sullivan for the delicate
little article of feminine apparel
she loaned them for the play.
T/4 Leonard L. Abramson.
Coast Artillery
Cpl. Fanning put the right let-
ter in the wrong envelope. The
replies will no doubt “snap his
cap.” You are never lonely when
you love only one; it is only
when there are two or none.
T/S Stevens is responsible for
all those intriguing arrangements
that our AAA Band has been
playing for your amazement. Sgt.
Manus and his Melodiers are
contributing much towards the
morale of the jitterbugs and we
are happy to salute them here.
The new theme song is a honey.
Pvt. Walter C. Peterson.

news, so Pfc. Ted Propp, Air
Corps clerk in Keflavik, probably
would have made the headlines
back home when he out-barked
a dog recently.
Ted, a nice-looking little guy.
was going into the mess hall
when a big mutt singled him out
for a barking attack.
Unafraid, Ted turned on the
dog, contorted his face into a
terrible snarl, and cut loose 'with
some really high class barking-
The dog was last seen (rear
view), making terrific speed
across a lava bed. Propp cele-
brated the victory with an extra
portiota of spam.
This week at Tripoli Round-
ing out a busy week last night
was an excellent band program
at the theater by the Army Band,
directed by W/0 Corley. Tim
concert was in addition to the
regular moving picture.
Monday night the first-three-
graders held a party and dance,
Tuesday night the men saw “The
Drunkard” at Herskola, and
Wednesday night the weekly Gl
dance was held at the Recrea-
tion Club with some 20 stulkas
and music by the Coast Artillery
orchestra.
Red Crosser Jessalee Malla-
lieu finally nabbed her man-
When the MP’s went to the
Drunkard she held on to S/Sgt-
J.J. Martin’s arm for oh! so long,
while they had their picture tak-
en. This is the first time Martin
ever had his picture taken with
a woman!
1st Sgt. Pusch proved to be
quite a dancer much to every
one’s surprise. He actually cU
in on Phil Gerson and put P°01
Phil to shame. What rank can
do! Tom Moffett was holding
a lengthy discussion with the
stiilka he accompanied unti
finally she smiled at him an^
said, “I am sorry, I cannot sPea
English,”
