Upon arrival and “low oi, folding green stuff,” Joe inquired for the YMCA where he hoped to find a room for overnight before going back up the Overseas High. way. . He was referred to the USO. YMCA Club, whic has no overnight accomodations, but Joe was direct. ed to a good room within his means. Joe returned to the USO Club to get a sandwich and to visit. Early in the evening Joe respond- ed to a call for “2 fourth for bridge.” Soon there were two tables of bridge, mostly sailors from the U. §. Naval Base, Key West. As the midnight closing of the USO Club approached, Joe suffer- ed an epileptic seizure; very un- expected, of course, to the other Players! One sailor (Tom Anonymous), a former Army medic, took charge as all hands aided in seeing the victim through his attack. Joe declined an offer of a ride to his room, so Tom walked with him; the others followed in cars. Upon learning that Joe had. not been eating well for several days, the group took him to one of the best’ restaurants, Another sailor (Jack Anonymous) set Joe up to VICTORY In Distress Crowds Attend Snite Funeral CHICAGO (#—Some 1,500 per- sons filled St, Luke’s Roman Cath- clic Church in suburban River | Forest yesterday for the funeral of Fred B. Snite Jr., 44, who spent 18% years in iron lungs. Snite, known as the “Smiling Boiler Kid,” was stricken with polio in China in 1936, He died in Florida last Friday. The Rev. John J. Cavanaugh, former president of the University of Notre Dame, where Snite at: tended school, gave the funeral sermon. Snite’s body was garbed in cape of a knight of the Holy Sepulchre, a vestment that went with the honor given him. two, years ago by Pope Pius XII. a steak. With that under his belt Joe was left at his room for a 520d night’s sleep. The following morning Jack ob- tained a special liberty to come ashore and get Joe a good break- fast. They played some table ten- nis at the USO Club, Jack tucked a little folding money in Joe’s poc- ket and got him to a good spot for a ride on his way back. It’s a safe bet that the sailor involved got a big bang out of re- versing U.S.O. Pal Day this year. WE DELIVER Legislators.
