lHdlkSSlVlIlS Lay lldl pe- rennial day in our lives has drift ed once more into the back ground. But the memory is as vivid as the northern lights danc- ing gaily across the sky on q cold and crisp Arctic winter eve- ming. Even the most hardened Mess Sergeant would be forced to contract a touch of nostalgia as the consuming of the feast began. There wasn't a single ta- ble to be found that lacked a sin gle thing. And if you didn't eat turkey and trimmin's' until it started forming a lump" in the throat, it was your own fault. Then to top it off with, there was pumpkin and mincemeat pie take your pick or both if storage space was available. It was a job well done by our army chefs upon which they can feel deservingly proud.
 One of the outstanding or could even go better and say THE outstanding turkey fest' was held for the men of Major Ridgeway's fine organiza- tion. It was a smash hit from the very start and the guests are still singing praises on the way the officers and enlisted men went into such infinite details in order to make the occasion a suc- cess. The highlight and moment that will be long remembered was when the host called the gather ing to ."at ease" and issued the command "Waiters - front and center. Then To, and behold, what steps out of Information but the top ranking non-commission- ed men of the outfit dressed "a Ia Waldorf" complete with towels draped across the arm, ready and . willing to serve at the beckon of small finger or the resounding 'sgrowr' of a hungry private. Among the upper grade mess at tendants were First Sergeant Paul G. 'Pappy" Eckbert, Mas ter Sgts. Frank Goodwin and John Shelnutt Tech. Sergeants Wm. Raines, Manuel Amaral, and John Cellmer, Staff Ser geants John Louthan, John A Devine, Joe Dalmolin, Paul w. Sanders Richard B. Shipp, John E. Hudson, and last but not least, the man who really gave his "all" for the occasion, Mess Sergeant Achilles Gallipo. The boys have a mighty fine esprit de corps" which is well worth investigat- ing.

'5uper-Critica|' Jobs
Being Listed by VINO

The War Manpower Commission
was in process today of compiling a
list of super critical" jobs, to head
those now called essential.
Chairman McNutt indicated at a
press conference yesterday that the
new list would be completed soon.
He refused to indicate what jobs
were causing VINO most concern.
But he said unusual difficulties in
keeping these places filled had been
reported and draft boards would be
asked to take this into consideration
in deciding deferments.
Asked about complaints from the
steel industry concerning the 46-
hour week, Mr.. McNutt said there
were no plans to modify the order.
He was questioned about strike
OF loggers in the West, who said they
did not receive enough meat. He
said VINO had made representa-
tions to the Office of Price Admin
istration regarding an adequate diet
for such workers and that was all
his agency could do.

Forfeit SIS Bonds

Eight restaurant owners forfeited
S25 collateral each in Municipal
Court today when they failed to ap-

lations have been given fines ranging
from $50 to 500 by Judge George D.

Lou Gehrig,
Gone But Not Forgotten

feel as if l had known Lou.
very well after reading over and
over time and time again, the COL
orful background of one of the most
colorful men in the Kingdom of
Swat. AS a matter of fact it is
my observation that anyone who has
had time even to glimpse those
colorful annals of the Iron Horse"
of baseball, oupght to feel that de-
graded chill creep down their back
bone.
Lou was a very quiet and clean
living American like you Or l, who
started out to take up engineer
ing but wound up to be the Pride
of the Yankees. And when 1 say
PRIDE, mean just that. When
he gradually climbed that ladder
to fame, and finally got there, Lou
did not forget his old friends who
put him there. But unlike many
another big league player Lou was
still that same unaSSuming per-
son.
While he was alive he had as
many honors heaped upon him as
he has had after he was dead.
From JUNE LIST, 1925 to May 2,
1889, Lou was in every game with
his heart as well as everything he
had. He was the only player to
play 2,130 consecutive games, which
will be remembered by all fans of
Swat.
But as well as having many hon
ors accorded him while he was liv-
ing, Gehrig has had many of the
greatest honors accorded him after
he laid in solemn memorial. He
had ships named after him, but
greatest of all is that No. 4 locker
at the Yankee Stadium, which still
remains untouched, as token to
one of their greatest. No more
could be said about Lou Gehrig,
except that he died two years ago
Wednesday. SWatSdom'S greatest,
gone, but not forgotten.
