An article appearing rec-
ently in a San Francisco
newspaper states that Molly
Dodd, one of four USO act-
resses who were presented
by Base Special Service last
year in such" slidws as “The
Doughgirls,” “The Drunk-
ard” and “Blithe Spirit” has
been given a leading role in
the taller play which is now
running at San Francisco’s
Curran Theater.
Miss Dodd had been und-
erstudying the part when
two of the other players, Vio-
let Helping and Gladys Ge-
orge, were unable to fulfill
a scheduled performance.
In her IBC appearances,
Miss Dodd portrayed a Red
Army sniper in “The Dough-
girls,” a half-wit country
bumpkin in “The Drunk-
ard,” and Madame Arcati, a
spiritualist medium, in
“Blithe Spirit.”

The Japs like to work in pairs when
using the bayonet. Their bayonets (15Vs
Inches long, weighing 14 ounces) have
a hook near the hilt. One Jap tries ta
itook the enemy’s rifle while the other
tries to sink in his blade.

Officers, Non-Coms Pull KP For
Navy Enlisted Men At Unit Party
By T. Hibson Y2/c.
If one were to enter the gym at the Naval Operating^
Base, Iceland, last Sunday he would have rubbed his eyes
in amazement at the strange sight: gold braid serving on
;ihe chew line, Chief Petty Officers handling the table
service and the rest of the enlisted men sitting around
•enjoying themselves to their heart’s content. To top that'
off, all First Class Petty Officers were instructed to remain
behind after the party to clean up.
This parly, worked out
•by several of the men, was
in celebration of the Sea
Bees’ “n”th month in Ice-
land. Boh Cochrane, Pat
Hughes and Red Strosberg
turned in an excellent job
of M.C.’in the affair and aft-
er Bob finished reading the
introduction (written by
Dexter Knight), Ihe party
really got into high gear.
Highlight of the party was a
speech made by Lieut. Geo.
A Marlin, Officer-in-Cliarge
of the Sea Bees.
of the affair was Ihe “Aw-
ards to our Heroes” in which
several of Ihe men received
awards for outstanding ser-
vice during their slay in Ice-
land. These awards were in
a humorous vein and again
Nick De Marco stole the
show. Nick was awarded a
gilded plaque for his so-call-
ed achievement of welding
international relationship
between Ihe people of Ice-
land and Ihe American Nav-
al Forces based here.
An award tendered in a
One of the main features more serious light was giv-
en to Cmdr. Buck in appreci-
ation by the Sea Bees for all
he had done in making the
men’s slay a little more en-
joyable.
