Mabel the mallard duck with her must in front of the Student club is undoubtedly one of the best attended mallard ducks in the countryside. Mabel not only has father duck bringing her choice edibles. . . she has a certain (jg) bringing her bread crumbs from Cowie Hall . . . Also within duck-bill length Mabel has a bowl full of water which said (jg) also religiously fills. I can't mention the (jg's) name. . . . He outranks me. . . . In fact, he is very rank at times.

His book will be the third non-fraction book since 1901 to sell over a million copies.

There is also the theory promoted among the Juniors that we should send the Gestapo copies of the Manual, Memo and Specimens . . . with no explanations. . . . They figure it would drive Adolf aunts trying to figure them out. We'd hate to see how voluminious the Manual and Memo would be in Japanese. A supply officer in the Jap Navy would probably have to have a "can" to cart his instructions around.

Suggestions Welcome

Then there is the Junior whose wife is working in the payroll department at Suffolk Downs. . . . How about getting us some hot tips, Al?

A lot of Juniors are glad payday was moved back to Monday. . . . After that Exam Saturday. . . . Tis rumored some of the boys cut loose with everything they had.
