By this last weekend most of us have had a chance to locate in Boston what we think are the desirable places to spend a shore leave. From the Statler ballroom to the Raymore, Boston people have noticed a new element smoothly moving into their midst. Some had difficulty in identifying us. Warren Sheard was accosted with "Are you in the Army, young man?", at which it is said he pulled the string and got the car. Little wonder if so.

Parker Buck found the Statler quite agreeable. He spent the evening maneuvering with a second lieutenant for the attentions of an attractive sultry Bostonian and won out even against these odds of flashing rank.

Less fortunate was Tom Doyle, who in the old circle game, drew something too conservative for his tastes. jack Boggess sized it up with "resembling the third baseman for the Braves." After the tenth dance or so Tom broke away with his best "Won't you please excuse me," and limped away to rejoin a much amused stag line.

The place was packed. At least Earl Glick said he wasn't going to attempt it again without his navigation charts.

Frankie Carle and his latest version of Sinatra kept a lot of us entertained, it seems, George Trudeau, after two shows said he just wanted to hear him again and again. Ralph Lang and Jack Gordon had the same to say, only more so. That guy described by Bob Shepard to be "high soprano and rather soft" must have had something. Al Ogden from Jersey explained it with "merely a cultural lag stimulated by movements about the microphone.

On the whole this weekend was quite satisfying after the grinding class sessions. Everyone agrees that compared with this, V-12 was paradise. But then someone was overheard telling Professor Hanson, the voice, that we had it easy when Mr. Hanson was pitying our lot We'd better take a poll very soon to see how the majority of us stand on Cudahy before any such committals occure again.

This case system is rough but it has its higher components. Rod Willough by's dissertations on insurance adjustments always catch you unprepared and the ladies Blademaster demand in Company 1 ends all discussions, Joe Grishan reports.

The Faculty Supper at which we were the guests of the Business School Faculty was a real pleasure. Jim Rafferty and Al Ogden report both the conversation and the beer lighter than they had expected, in giving a glowing account of the evening to the uninitiated.

Under the guidance of men like Don Waddell with his over the hill let's go men" leadoffs, the singing is well on it way toward eclipsing that of the noise Army bunch.

Charlie Gould, more widely known is "Form the Battalion," has even notices the improvement in singing and when the falling in at muster improves as much he intimated that we may expect more baseball and less column movements during the week.

Ken Mills has a sizable twilight league started and is looking for more competitors. Ken, in case you haven't already become acquainted, was the only other non-com on the base beside Mrs. Boni when you arrived here a couple of weeks ago.

Anyone locating a pair of regulations shorts, please return them to H. Coggar in B-13. The laundry situation gets more drastic every day now. Jack Trumbane has suggested converting Cowie at least for a while until the situation improves.

A consensus of opinion on the Atlanth case is "Yes" in Company 1 and "No" in Company 2. It seems that Professor Merriam and Professor Barloon were in disagreement last term over the issue hence the unpleasant conflict of opinion Advance repots indicate that the next report will not possess such complications. Until then, we can wonder whether our first attempt proved too horrible to release to young hopefuls.
