The op- portunity to serve that city in the important post offered him is a challenging one. And, knowing Sid as we do, we realize he could not well have turned it down, for it is directly concerned with the welfare of thousands of young people who are dangerously jeopardized by the abnormal conditions of hig city life today. He will bring to his new job, we are sure, a wide experience, much resourcefulness, sincere humility, and an earnest desire to render service. Here at the 'CIub he will be keenly missed. Among his many fine qualities which we admre, of only three, but they have been appreciated more than can readily be stated: his patience at all times, and his never-failing considerate- ness of his fellow staff members, | and his constant concern that the Club to the very limit of its ability meet every need of all the Service- men coming to it. To Sid and Emma and the children we wish the best of everything; and we'll be hoping that those California skies, fig- uratively speaking as well as liter- ally, may prove even brighter than tance! THOSE COOKIE JARS AGAIN Every once in a while this column finds itself just naturally turning again to the subject of COOKIES. Personally we have an ever-recur- ring and insatiable appetite for cook- ies—we like to eat them by the handful and we like to write about | them. So it’s not unlikely we'd; have composed this paragraph to- | day in any event; howgver, it hap- | ‘pens there is another reason for its appearance here. During the past month especially, all the fellows have | been so keenly enjoying the cookies and have made so many com- plimentary remarks about them that | the USO Servicemen’s Council hau( passed a special resolution of apvv ‘preciation - directed to the ladies ! donating the cookies; and the Coun- | cil wants this action to be given the | widest publicity. We doubt whether anybody Tot at ‘the clubhouse con-{ tinuotsly ‘over the weekends can | have a true picture of how many fellows enjoy this treat every Sat- urday and Sunday and how very keen that enjoyment actually is. | No one needs to be told these days | that it is vitally imporfant to USO clubs to be just as home-like as possible. . There used to be a popular song celebrating the unique fascina- tion of a certain community that {the local Servicemen to go out for 'alias noodles) in a large jar on dis- iplay in the lobby. abundant courage, | we make mention | ! have failed to come up with items | concerning Eleanor McCormack, sis- | en route to Tuesday night's Quarter- THE DAILY ALASKA EMP]REo—JUNEAU ALASKA USO NEWS s for Everybody something in the air” of the plac That's just what we're trying to say: There is in the fragrance of a ‘woll ~filled cookie jar a sort of kind ‘or something that with unique ef- |fectiveness spells home and happi- iness to countless fellows who (88§ pecially on weekends) are hungry { for their homes and for the cookies | ! that so vividly remind them of those {homes. PARTY AT DUCK CREEK A long-awaited dance now seems definitely to be on the schedule for Saturday night, October 9, Ever |since early in September Col‘Rchh' Commanding Officer at Duck Creek, has wanted the GSO girls and all an evening at the recently-complei- rd Post Auditorium. For various | | refisons it has been necessary up to now to postpone this attractive |affair; but it appears likely toj| | materialize on Saturday night. The | music will be furnished by the Serv- | jcemen’s orchestra, led by the popu- | Jar Lt. “Woody" Doughman. Look for further details of the party to be announced tomorrow. OODLES OF NOODLES The Club’s latest Guessing Con- test has just ended. It involved the total length of a great many sticks | of spaghetti (or alleged spaghetti, We have heard it claimed often that any real lover of spaghetti, |confronted by this delicacy when ‘pmpmv prepared, could be counted | upon to consume at a single meal, no less than several hundred yards | lof the dish. Perhaps fortunately | our contest did not compel the fellows to try to demonstrate the soundness of this proposition. The | capacity of the jar, not their capac- ity, was the matter at issue. The guesses as to the length were many, ranging all the way up to nearly a half-mile. On Tuesday |night the corrgct length was an- nounced as 4,845% inches, or 403 feet, 912 inches. The winner was | Coast Guardsman George R, Guffey, | {located at Sitka, whose guess was | off by only 1 foot, 9': inches. Soldier Gene F. Paige and GSO Girl Merion | | I(,'lss tied for second and third prizes, with estimates of 4,800 inches. | After filling the jar with the stuff and posting the noti about Lh0| length of “the spaghetti,” suddenly | we learned to our chagrin that u‘ wasn't spaghetti at all but just plain | noodles instead! The prizes already | offered were the traditional cartons | of cigarettes. For a moment, we | were tempted to offer as first prize, | in lieu of such tobacco, the jarful | of noodles itself, tastefully made up } at our canteen into about 85 steam- | ing bowls of noodle soup. As a! matter of fact, you winners, it stiil | is not too late to make your choices: | Which will it be, noodles or nico- | tine?
