George c. Hazelton.
The piece is sufficiently described on
the program as "a group Of amusing
anecdotes of our soldiers in the camps

no complaint II the auditor finds the
story without much plot. The moral
seems to be that Sd avenue and 5th
avenue may be twain in peace times,
but that the two shall meet and min

and that 1t is quite possible for the
private OF the American Army to
know more than his junior officers.
