Pfc. Eldred Judd is attending
school somewhere in India. He
writes-"There is a very nice Red
Cross Club just a little way from my
basha. It seems good to sit down in
a chair for a change. The club was
dedicated the other day, and I'm sure
you will agree when I say the name
of the club is very appropriate. Believe it or not, the winning name
for the club was 'The Sad Sack

Lieutenant Cletus Collins visited
his brother John in his barracks in
recruit camp at Great Lakes, Illinois,
recently. Lieut. Collins is assistant
disbursing officer for Service Schools
at the Naval Training Center there.
John is at Great Lakes for his recruit training. The lieutenant graduated from CSTC and John studied
here for two years during which he
played basketball and baseball, being captain of the basketball team
during his last year.
First Lieutenant Robert C. Becker,
who attended CSTC a few years ago,
is now a meteorologist for the 100th
Bombardment Group. Lt. Beckerlike his counterpart in civilian lif.etakes the blame for the weather
when it's bad and no credit when it's
good. Forecasts of weather play a
decisive part in air operations against
Germany, and, declared Lt. Becker,
the predictions for an 8-hour flight
over Germany must be far more
comprehensive and accurate than for
those which have to do with the
scheduling of Sunday picnics. His
wife .is the former Katherine Bowersock, a CSTC graduate.
Pfc. Gerald. Neuenfeldt, who is
located in Pampa," Texas, writes"In a sense I'm in a foreign country,
being in Texas and being a Yank.
Pampa is so dead you can't tell
whether a man is dead or not until
you read his obituary."
Question : .What do you consider
an outstanding book?
Jeanette Feirer: The Robe, by
Lloyd Douglas is a great book bee
cause it treats the biblical story so
well and weaves the fiction around
it. It is beautifully written, interesting and inspiring.
Vernon Kesy: Lend-Lease (Weapon for Victory) by Robert L. Stettinius is, in my opinion, a great book.
It is interestingfy written and brings
out facts that have never been published in newspapers.

Glee Club Performs at
Menasha, Weyauwega
Last Thursday, April 19, on an all
day trip, the Glee club gave an afternoon performance at Menasha, and
an evening performance at Weyauwega. At Menasha the girls were
taken through the high school by
Principal Wienbergen, who showed
them everything of interest-from
the swimming pool to the furnace
room. Meals were served at the
Hotel Dobbins in Weyauwega.
On the final lap home, most of
the girls 'dozed off', although the
usual amount of harmonizing was
heard. One girl remarked that, with
a little more persuasion from Peter
J. Michelsen, she would do as he so
often admonished and find a handsome male in the audience to senerade coyly during the song "My Johann". The other girls were happy
with just Mr. Michelsen!

Everybody ·e njoys a moment of good-natured friendliness. Such a
moment begins at the words Ha11e a Coke. That's why a pause for
ice-cold Coca-Cola is greeted with a smile in so many places, on the
seas and overseas, just as it is in your home. It's a happy symbol
among people who understand the pleasant ways of friendship.
