We’re looking forward with
•enthusiasm to the. party to-
night at the Herskola Theat-
er and wondering who’ll sur-
prise us this time by bring-
ing stulkas. Mut and Hank
■didn’t do bad at the last shin-
dig.
We are glad to see Tec 5
McKenzie able to work again.
Did you run out of kronur,
•Mac? Glad to see your smil-
ing face, too, Harry. Hope
■you stay well.
The recent return of our
CO and Lt. Garney has been
the cause of many happy
smiles. We hope they had a
.good time on TD, hut hope
that they don’t leave 11s
again — hut take us along
with them the next time.
Popular remarks heard in
the Mess Hall: “Is the laund-

Dobyns not at the company
party. (Could il he that he
didn’t want to make the boys
jealous or was il the other
way around ?)i .... “Jansey
Wansey” Janowski out of the
sack and well on the way
to being a reformed man.
(Will someone please tell
us where he gol the fancy
name?) .... And Tec 5 Stev-
ens mil of the sack.
That noise you heard in
Hut 4 last night was not an-
other invasion as rumored —
just “Curly” Robel finding
his way in the dark .... The
mystery of the week is who
pushed “Gato Muerto” Flen-
ker in the ditch and why?
“Gorgeous Gory” (Goro-
witz to the uninformed) re-
fused to pay us the promis-
ed amount for putting his
name in this column. So,
from now on, it’ll be kronur
on the line! .... Pfc. Ford

because of what the CO told
him?).

all you hear is Pete sing-
ing “Molly, ma’ sweet blue
bell.”

A bit of this ’11’ that: Fav-
orite songs of the week —
Sgt Hyde, “My Son, My Son;”
Ed Hickman, “That Silver
Haired Daddy of Mine”... . J
Sgt. Wendt must really have
good eyes judging from the
way he can spot those men
who aren’t covered off for
reveille formation .... We
, earnestly hope that the WAC
won’t discover the reason
why “Blimp” Nufrio volun-
teered for steady guard duty
at the gate .... Whaddaya
know? “Meat” Posillico
made Pfc .... For a man
who hasn’t far to 'bend, Bill
Hylton really has a tough
time getting his pants off
each Saturday night.
Sunday at the range we
saw: Frank Connolly of the
Boston Connolly’s kicking
up the ice half-way to the
target . . . . Sgt. Boyett show-
ing off (no surprise) .... the
medics hoping that some-
one would get shot .... that
the safest place to be was
behind Target No. 3 at which
Sgt. Bankoski was firing.

WE SAW IT OURSELVES:
The First Man, Sgt. Anjori-
an, swinging a pick and us-
ing a shovel while the “Utili-
ties” squad (“Bull Gang” to
the less educated) looked on
It looks as if Jim Burt’s
leave to the UIv has caused
quite a commotion about his
stulka. Even with a Chief
Storekeeper, a Yeoman and
a Marine battling it out for
first place in her heart, we
think Jim will pick up where
he left off without any troub-
le at all.
Marine Pfc. Hiltz (the
Farmer) is still looking for\
easy kronur anti usually he
gets it. Probably the system
he uses is infallible. It
seems he wakes a guy up and
while the fellow is still grog-
gy from sleep he does a little
fast-talking and, before his
victim realizes it, he is forc-
ed into a sucker bet.
Hoot Mon! Scots wha hae!
What is it these Scotch lass-
ies have that causes the wist-
ful look in the boys eyes aft-
er they come back from the
UK? Pete Pristavec went ov-
er in one piece and came
ORDNANCE
ORDANOTES: Our apo-
logies to Tec 3 Sundeen for
omitting his name from last
week’s list of promotions.
Just blame it on the weath-
er, Sundeen, as it wasn’t in-
tentional ... . A salute to
Cpl. Geo. Sparacino for his j
excellent and informative
lecture on the war issues.
Nice going, George .... Has
anyone noticed the “spread”
on T/Sgt. (Porky) Wilson
since he joined up with our
outfit? Maybe it’s our in-
signia?
What Icelandic girl thinks
Tec 5 Swinderman is a “cute
kid?” You bet he is trying
to find'out! .... The myst-
ery of the week is whether
Tec 4 (knuckle-buster) Pro-
ce did — or did not — marry
Joan .... Aside to Eileen:
Let’s see, it must have been
R.B. Craig who we mention-
ed in this column — or was
it R.T.? No, it was — well,
the B is correct, anyway.
Personally, we still can’t tell
them apart.
Well, tear up my leggins
and ship me a bobby sock!
A “Sinatra (eek) Club” in
Iceland! Quick, Sgt., the
smelling salts! We might
organize a counter-Crosby
club but why elevate Sin-
atra to the level of a vocal-
ist? He (Sinatra) isn’t even
a good echo. Suffice, there-
fore, to say Phooey!
Tec 5 John F. McCabe.
It’s all over but the memo-
ries and the after-thoughts
are very pleasant. The boys
are still talking about the
company dance held in our
day room last Saturday ev-
ening. Top honors went to
Pvt, James (Judge) Barnes
for doing his impersonation
of Schickelgruber. He cer-
tainly made a Ilit(ler) with
the crowd .... Tec 4 Cliff-
ord P. Johnson is a jitter-bug
par-excellence. Cliff certain-
ly was hot in his dance rout-
ine, in fact, lie sizzled so
much that JOHNSON melted
the FLOOR WAX .... Pvt.
Thomas (J- for Jersey) Gum-
ina’s dancing rocked the
house and when the band
went to town in a musical
way swinging out the “Cow
Cow Boogie,” young Tom
didn’t do the Turkey Trot
but had the joint a-jump-
ing. You could see the Jers-|
ey Bounce — and that’s no
bull .... Many thanks to
Capt. Alexander, Lts Rich-
ardson and Kappus for mak-j
ing the party possible.
Thanks to the Army Band
which furnished the music
and the boys and girls for1
their atten(dance). A happy
time was had by all.

Pvt. Roy Heim insists that
he be called an Artificer.
Dictionary, please! He paint-
ed some fire buckets. .. .The
“Big Boys” had better look
to their laurels, Cpl. Hupka,
a newcomer in our midst,
weighs 285 lbs! .... Pfc. Bi-
erce claims that he can beat
any man in the Btrv. at cas-
ino .... Cpl. Toneatti and
Pfc. McDonough have been
bitten by the “pin-up collec-
tion bug” .... They say that
Pfc. Moorman used up two
rolls of film posing for pic-
tures with the Good Conduct
Medtal pinned on his blouse
.... We miss Sgt. Bendorf’s
pies, cakes and doughnuts.
So, Sarge, please come out
of the hospital’— but quick!
.... Richard “Down on the
Farm” McDonald receives
more letters than anyone in
the outfit. Quite a popular
man!

an Sam Ackly is the MC now
.... So lightning never strik-
es twice? You should hear
A1 White tell of his new
love .... Tonv Paolucci is
plenty busy sandwiching
plane trips to you know who
in between jauuts to Civil
Affairs and the preacher to
make arrangements.
Charlie Bayer was seen
taking a beefsteak (very
small) into Hut 23 ... . The
Sweat Club is growing so
fast it now wants the walls
moved outward. For the jitt-
ery bugs, we presume ....
Aurelio Padrivita and his
magic violin is the finale for
most of our affairs.
Harry Kopatz is sweating
out the bronze doughnut for
his ETO bar. He’s earned it
for his 100 missions to the
ARC .... Jake Wirth can
now sleep morning since he
gave those keys back to
Penzlin. Penz makes break-
fast regularly these days . .
. . We wonder how George
Nelson felt after he and the
medics had carefully splint-
ed that lad’s leg, and rush-
ed him to the hospital where
they found it was only a
cramp .... Boz actually got
out on the dance floor at the
last party. It’s rumored that
he practiced secretly for
weeks before taking the
plunge.
Those TD boys have no
good reply yet for the taunt
“Wait’ll you’ve been in Ice-
land as long as I have” ....
Otto Scholl is losing cribb-
age games to everyone now
that Anna Marie’s inspirat-
ional photo has been taken
from atop his desk. . . . Toto
finally made the grade. All
those bus trips finally paid
off — or so we bear.

1st Sgt. Bianclii is now
“Little Bill” to his mates. It
can’t be simply because lie’
goes around saying “I’m out
of gas.” The angle of the hat
and that favorite expression
“Isn’t that right, Guilfovle?”
must have something to do
with the nickname.
Jimmy Adams, fresh from
TD,has added another stripe.
Make it Sgt. Adams from
here on out .... Cpl. Harold
Hermann, the Jersey Flash,
is zooting around the area
on a bike now that spring ( ?)
is here. If lie can ride as fast
as he can walk he’ll set a
new record, for the island.
The White-Haired Terror
of the Stiilkas, Pvt. Morris
Flaxman, is back in belter
(or is it worse?) shape than
ever. He and Harpo Marx
have the same leer — and
the same tactics.
