The Lucky Bag

Navy Supply Corps Midshipmen Officers School

I have always maintained that address should be changed, and here is a substantiating case. Coming from Brigg's Cage last Monday, Lt. Salmon discovered an apprentice seaman in the center of the field, equipped with duffel bag, typewriter, and other accessories of "Haavaad" war. After all, his orders did say "Soldiers Field," and orders are orders, after all.

Saludo a Don Carlos, whose Spanish buffaloed three Boston fillies Saturday night. If his mission here were not so secret we could say more.... Five minutes silent meditation for the Critchlowean restriction of the spirited rendition entitled "Ding Dong Daddy." We'll hum it in your honor, K. K.... And while we're on the subject, may we apply for the grass skirt on the left for the Regimental?

Attention, M. Miller--we quote from a Baker encyclopaedia: "the Catta Pilosa, commonly referred to as the caterpillar, is one of the most clean of its species. Erroneously believed to be a lice carrier, the 'catta' actually feeds upon lice and sand fleas."

With Hanson giving out with the accounting in Baker A, and not-to-be-out-done Beckham authorizing advances in Baker B, the feeling of the called hog is becoming, natural to both companies. Let us hope the good lieutenant will see justification for inserting the tougher parts of Gravert Leather into the disbursing final....

Along with the first warm (not typicaly Boston) weather, comes the reminder to all members of the Supply School unit-- "Grass, stay off the, request to!"
