USO CLUB FORUMS
 PROVING POPULAR
Increased Knowledge of Countries Where War Is
 Active, Offered Men

The determination of Americas $ fighting forces to defeat the Axis leads them to study maps of battle fronts and to keep abreast of inter national affairs, according to sur- very on current events programs at USO clubs.
 As a result, the survey showed, members of the armed forces have a wider grasp of world events and of Americas role in the global con- fiict.
 'The Price of Free World Vic- tory" an address by Vice President Wallace, distributed in pamphlet form, is widely discussed at USO club forums.
 To keep the men posted on the battle fronts, World News of the Week" maps are distributed at most USO clubs. Servicemen gather around these maps and discuss the course of the war Sometimes an instructor from a nearby college will be on hand to supply leading AuC~oCAOAAos 4AtC1y dIS u1L1CAltS 1OAlOW, which take the men to the club li- brary, supplied with atlases, and pamphlets and magazines on cur- rent affairs.
 Discussion groups take different forms. The round table type is the most popular. The club director, a or a visiting lecturer will introduce the subject, and then the soldiers take it up, and heated dis cussions often ensue. These talks stimulate further study of the ques- tiors involved. Enlisted men show increased knowledge of the coun- tries where the war is active.
 Brunch Discussion Groups" are features at some USO clubs. Over a combination of Sunday breakfast and lunch, enlisted men, chaplains, special service officers and local civilians join in give and take on a wide range of current topics.
