WELCOME VISITORS It was a delight on Tuesday eve- ning to welcome to Juneau the gen- ial “Mac” MacCarthy, Director of; Ithe Ketchikan USO Club, and its; very charming hostess, 1\(3\1;“‘1 Bernhoft. They paid us only a, {fleeting visit, enroute to the north | but shortly they will return for sev- eral more days. For some time it has been felt that it would be help- | ful to all the Alaskan USO Clubs if each Director and each Hostes.si could visit the other clubs located in | the same area. Mac and Margie |are now making the first of these | tours, visiting the Sitka, Skagway and Juneau clubs. No doubt they will return home with a number of good ideas; but its our guess that in the Mght of their experience in producing such excellent results in Ketchikan they will leave with the rest of us many more helpful ideas than they will take away. ‘Trust that ingenious man Mac- |Carthy to accomplish the original! You know it long has been tradit- ional everywhere to call out the town band whenever it has been desired to give a man a really super reception. Well, do you recall how recently you heard the best band ever in this town? Right, it was just last week. from? Right, it was from Ketchi-| kan. Like most everyone else, we'd been naively suppesing that this [star Coast Guard outfit had come | here mainly to build up a general |good will. But with Mac’s, arrival | the truth suddenly dawns upon us: To insure a really appropriate re- ception, this fellow calls out his own band, the best in Alaska, and sends it up in advance to arouse all of us |into a frenzy of enthusiasm; and, timing his arrival at the psychu]o-1 gical moment when the applause | bas barely subsided and while the | melody lingers on, he puts in his appearance. We ask you: Did you| ever hear of such resourcefulness!| And is it any wonder that Mac! heads the best-run USO in the \Territory! Anyway, we want him and Margie to know how glad we |are to have them with us and that {in our opinion the very best of band music or other forms of reception are none too good for them. JUKE BOX From time to time this column;’ has had occasion to speak Wol’dhi |of commendation about various at- tractions of the Clubhouse. Thus, the- library, the art exhibits and other sources of diversion have had | their share of comment. Occasion: lally we have merely mentioned the itemi that probably has’served toj entertain more Servicemen than any one other; but we never pre- viously have written at any length about it. T rmental as it'is (in what is' ‘popularly supposed to be the musical tradition) our Juke Box has been the source of many a head- ache when it has gone on a tem- porary rampage, or has chewed up a record or two, or has occasionally | stood mute despite our best efforts o elicit some response. Neverthe- | less, everything eConsidered, it has been a faithful friend and a gen- grally reliable one. And whenever | some new ailment has put inm its | appearance we've simply called in Soldier Dick Garrison of the ACS, and the Ppatient has invariably been quickly responsive to his skillful i iment of |appropriate: earnestly hope will be entirely well 1 very soon No statistician has ever checked up on the number of playings of the hundreds of records which have been fed to it since the Club opened. However it is a safe guess that all the playings exceed 35,000, and that some records have bee: played many hundreds of times . 10:00 P. M—Singing around Certainly those of us who have N3 been obliged at close range to ab- orb the punishment of hearing ertain records played apparently endlessly can testify that whatever| the exact count may have been it| was too many times. Our still acutely sensitive recollection prompts us to believe for example, that we heard “Nursie, Nursie”| played at least a thousand times ver the span of a few weeks, mak- ing painfully personal its sad la-| “nursie, nursie, I'm aget- ting worsie;” and, although widely noted for our patience, we became almost literally violent after the 150th playing in one day of the platter recording the sad fate of the yokel who visited Kansas City with $14 and lost the same under highly discreditable circumstances. | On the credit side: We happen | to be a setup for “White Christmas” nd never did get nearly enough of that one even during its off-sea- son playing in early July; and just, about any recording by Bing Crosby | seems to us to be worth hearing even though played ad infinitum (which it usmally is). i One special bow to our Juke Box for its display on one occasion of positively uncanny se of the| Several weeks ago/| when a certain charming young | lady from a nearby Alaskan town ! came over to become the hostess at | our club, she began to make an! immediate hit with apparently just| about everyone who met her. For| a month the Juke Box had been! loudly extolling to all the world| the virtue of that “grand old name” | that happened to be hers, expres- sing the sentiment in gay and ap- | parently carefree tones.

And what did that Juke Box do?

Every so often this column has beenl known to sing aloud its prais- | es of the USO discussion group that meets each Monday night, known as the Forum Club. Delightfully entertained at the homes of var- ious ladies of the town, the Ser- vicemen coming to ‘the meetings have found this hospitality to be the most enjoyable single feature| of the club. A whole column coul be written simply describing a few | of the many very charming homes where we have met and attemptin, to do justice to the home-cooked feod that hes meant especially ! much to all the men.
