In numbers was the biggest of these parties| |thus far; and many have said that | it was also the best. For most of| the men it afforded the first op-| portunity to see the Executive man- | sion from the inside and to meet| its friendly occupants. Though pressed with its size, they found that the building also has a most| hospitable atmosphere; and all the guests seemed to make themselves thoroughly at home. We all are deeply indebted to Mrs. Grueningl and the Governor for giving us 80| |enjoyable an evening. And speaking of parties, thut' certainly was a PARTY that '.he‘ Girls' Service Organization Council| jand the Servicemen's Council put on last night. Twenty-five were present. Planned originally as a picnic, the bad weather made it necessary to move it indoors; but| with Mr. and Mrs. John Klein gen- erously lending us their cottage at the Bay, this turned out to be a lucky break after all. The food was plentiful and delicious; the! games were a lot of fun; and the| singing in the bus on the wayf home was at least voluminous. Sev- | eral thoughtful members had con- | sidered holding a business meeting | during the evening; but that idea was quickly abandoned in favor of | less serious pursuits. It may be re- ported with accuracy that the eve-| ning’s most serious note was sound- | ed when, to a group of Army men | of inexperience in dealing with seafaring men and chips was pre- sented in a lecture, with illustra- tions, by an authority on the sub- ject, famed Professor H. M. Shum- way, erstwhile University of Illinois In an earlier column we report- =d that the Club had started a Register in which all the Service- men were asked to give us their names, home addresses and hobbies. After a few weeks it was promised that the results to date would be recorded here. Between April 20 and May 17 nearly 300 men had signed the register. In that list, 37 states, two territories and Nova Scotia are represented. Washington has established a long lead on the other states, with Minnesota, Mis- souri and California practically tied for second place. Of the East- ern states, New York is best repre- sented. As to the favorite hobbies: There are almost as many different choices as there are men. We have only two registrants from Brooklyn. They recorded their respective hobbies at “Horseback riding” and “The Dodgers.” Per- sonally being a St. Louis Cardinal fan, your reporter ought to find therein material for a bit of hu- mor; but just at the moment it seems to be escaping us. Many men in the various branch- es of the Service pass through this| port each week; and the Club enjoys at least a fleeting visit from |2 good many of them. Thus pleas-' a | ant contacts are made and some real friendships are begun. Occa- sionally, for one reason or an- other, an individual comes along who seems to make an especially vivid and delightful impression on everyone he meets here. This was conspicuously true of a recent visi- tor in the person of George Alien, of the Royal Cana- dian Air Force. Representing an or; ganization with so much already- established goodwill, Corporal Al- Jen added more than a little to the high regard in which it is held by of us who had the pleasure of acquainted with him.
