"WHOOPEE ut SAYS.
If you happen to be over at Fort
Myer today just take peek at the
mimeographed posters starting Off
with 'whoopee" It's tho program
for Lieutenant McCalls first show,
billed for tomorrow night.
According to the poster. there will
be thirty rounds OF lambasting, rip
snorting hot stun. divided into an
eight-round feature contest between
shorty" Mccain, Nineteenth Field
Artillery. and George Myers, of The
Marines; a semi wind-up of six
rounds between "Hardboiled" Jack
Smith, of<Walter Reed Hospital, and
Stanley Trazech, Third Cavalry: an
other between Battling Hinkley,
Motor Transport Corps, and CorpL
Charles Lamot, Third Cavalry, and
Francoeur mule skinner, tackling Joe
Rodriguez, "barrage expert" Nine
teenth Field Artillery. and another
bout yet to be arranged There will
also be a battle royal.
Furthermore, "jawbonc" goes, Il
you're an enlisted man at the post.
For each dollar in cash, "jawbone" to
a total of s1.10 counts as cash. But
we guys from the city have no Jaw
bone worth a nickel over there. It'll
be merely one rat to see this stellar
boxing show tomorrow night.
ANOTHER WAR BREWING.
If you read this notice. you'll think
there's another war brewing right
over at Fort Myer. Here are some eX-
cerpts from the notice:
Myers says Mccain is" going to
think he's full Of Coolies
Jack Smith says he's Just as hard
boiled as he looks and he doesn't give
whoop il he is. He gets mad every
time you mention Trazech. Trazech
says though his name might not indi-
cate it, he's going to knock the liver
out of Smith"
.Francoeur and Rodriguez will give
us a dash of French and Mexican gou-
laash, and what they don't spill on the
floor they'll smear on each others
face
"Hinkley and Lamot say they are
going to whip each other cockeyed
and knockneed. Hinkley says Lamot
will be saying his prayers in the sec
ond round. Lamot says Hinkley Will
be calling on ST Peter in the third
round"
Doesn't this stuff sound like another
war?
"PIZEN IN THE EYE.~
Then comes the star attraction.
next to the main bout. Five big hus-
kies will get into the ring. with pizen
in the eye, and will make you below
with laughter"
Ladies admitted free Of charge. II
you have a soldier friend at the Fort
get in touch with him at once and get
ready for one good old time. Bring
along couple Of good cigars and
everything else you care for, just so
you don't dope the fighters"
Fair enough. In this last line there
seems q hint-a mere hint, Of course
that a little cough medicine for Use
against the damp winds sweeping
down the Potomac might not go
amiss. oh, this is only hint, that's
all. Far be it from US to dream even
that it might happen or anything, far
be it from us
Now all of this junk merely proves
that a live wire has arrived at Fort
Myer to help out that dandy little
chaplain, Father Feeley, in keeping the
mems heads up.
We're for the Loot" We're for any,
body working hard to make army life
pleasant for tho man in tho ranks.
