E. Housman a boy stood on a street corner watch- ing a long column of troops go by. He knew ngne of them; they were ijust passing through the town. Only {one seemed to notice him. As their eyes met, though for no more than a few seconds, they seemed to recog- unknown soldier. | And the lad, feeling himself idrawn close to the other in those |fleeting moments, cried out: | “What thoughts at heart have you and I We cannot stop to tell. But dead or living, drunk or dry, i Soldier, I wish you well!” { To us at the USO it seems all {too often that our friends among ithe servicemen are, in effect, sol- |diers . in a_ never-emnding . column moving past our street corner. Our contacts, measured in days or weeks {instead of seconds, still are all too \brief for our liking. Eager to be- | { | jcome well acquainted, there is time for us to do little more than look momentarily into their eyes and call out our good wishes. Good wishes, in abundance, com- prise our farewell to a considerable number of fellows who (we have ‘juAt learned) are to leave Juneau almost at once. Because their de- 'n-rture is imminent we aren't at liberty to ‘mention any names. Wanting to mention each one by hame, we are obliged to let all of them remain anonymous. However, we can identify them as men who have helped to shape the character ning and who have made it a much pleasanter place for the statf to work in than it could possibly have been’ without tnem. We will. miss' thein very much. Each one leaves us with our cry of the best of good wishes ringing in his ‘ears and his heart: “— SOLDIER, WE WISH YOU WELL!” | MUSIC AND GIRLS I's been pointed out thati the American Army in this war isn't a “singing army,” in contrast with our boys of the first World War. May- be it's true they don't sing as much. But countless juke boxes and radios evidence the fact that they love to listen to music. And nobody, we are positive, ever accused our lads of 1944 of being indifferent toward pretty girls. = Accordingly, the Club has sched- uled a visit on Friday night- (to- morrow) to-a spot where much good music. and many pretty girls (in- cluding a number af GBSO meni- bers) will be on simultaneous dis- play. The place is the High Scfiool and ‘the oooasion’ is its ‘Annual Spring Concert. From ‘all indica- t this' is sure to be a_delightful ?:wux;—nn'x:' we don't want our Yel- S to miss it. Scheduled for 8:f there’ll proBiably be an SRO ..."',i out early; so we Clubhiotse ‘o plan to Jleave the FORUM CLUB AT -EXECUTIVE ‘MANSION * An event eagerly anticipated for several months by the members of ized next Monday night (May 1st) when the Club’s meeting will take place at the Executive Mansion, with Gov. and Mrs, Ernest Gruen- ln‘uas our Hosts. ; seryvicemen statigned 'i | Alaska, as well as many ou?:‘m, ni: wondering about its future after the |War.

This Pure DANCING CLASS Tonight at. 7:30 o'clock the sec- iond USO dancing class will begin. | This is being scheduled in response to the request of many of the ser- vicemen, It will continue every Thursday night. The Club is delighted that Mrs. Fred Geeslin has agreed to servs as instructor. At the start she will be assisted by staff members Alida Matheson and Mary MecCormack, and later by some of the GSO \girls. The fellows who learned to (dance in Mrs, Geeslin's class last summer were enthusiastic about the Assures fine flavor fo Vamilla r your desserts Schilling excellence of her instruction, and | ever since they also have sung her praises as a charming friend and a delightful dancing partner. The class will meet on the second | floor of the clubhouse, with no one | present except the class members | themselves and their teacher, ‘so | that anyone who might feel a bit self-conscious will be spared an un-|| welcome audience of fellow GI's. || Fellows, if you are interested, be sure to sign up immediately at the club desk. The class membership must be limited to gbout fifteen. USO - HEADLINERS - OF - THE - WEEK - DEPARTMENT: As is true almost any week at the USO, a lot of folks during the past week have rated the headlines. ‘There was, for one example, Sol- dier John Tischer, from Chicago, |one of the new fellows in town, doing an outstanding job as chair- man of the Committee on Decora- tions for the Sadie Hawkins Party last Saturday * * * and there was Coastguardsman Hi Shumway, gen- eral chairman for the affair and largely responsible for its great success © * * And Sgt.
