duikers, while the smaller pair is
located right over the eyes. The
front pair may be mere knobs.
The male chousingha stands about
2512 inches at the withers-the ridge
between the shoulder bones-and ~
inches higher on the launches, OF
hips.
The animals wear fur coat that
is thin, harsh and short. 1t is longer
on the upper surface Of the tail. The
general color pattern is a dull pale
brown with a slightly reddish tinge
above, gradually fading to white
underneath The inner and lower
part of the legs is white, and down
the center of each leg is wide
streak of dark brown.
Along the foot of the Himalayas
from Punjab to Nipal, and over tht
greater part of Peninsular India, the
chousingha loves to range. In the
wooded and hillv country it is per-
fectly at home. 1t always avoids the
dense jungles not SO far away This
animal is unknown in the plain OF
the GangeS, as well as on the Mala-
bar coast and in Ceylon.
Four-horned antelopes are not
gregarious. They haunt the skimpy
forest and bush and keep mostly to
the undulating or hilly ground they
have chosen. They love water anc
/ never stray far from it.
Two babies are born in January
or February. The parents guard
their young until they are strong
enough to fee all danger. Never
more than two chousingha are seer
together with the exception of the
time when the small family is al
home. These animals prefer their
own company to that of any other
and they never quarrel except when
rivals meet face to face during the
courting season.

of it. Only after people made pins
with heads could they leave us proof
that they knew about pins.
For thousands of years Swiss lake
dWellers made their home in huts
built on piers over the water. Many
of the things they used have been
saved for us to find in mud at the
bottom of lakes in Switzerland.
Among the remains of the lake
dWellers are about 10000 pins. Some
of these were made from pieces of
bone which had been shaped to
give them heads as well as sharp
points. Besides the bone pins these
people left many pins which we're
made from bronze. They lived so
long in their lake homes that they
passed from the Stone Age into the
Bronze Age.
Pins of various kinds have been
found in tombs of ancient Egypt.
Quite number of them have gold
heads which were fastened to the
pointed parts.

NOTES

WAS this the face that launched
a thousand ships and burnt the
topless towers of HUMP" 1t is
recorded that Dr.. Faustus thus eX-
claimed when he ga2ed upon the
image Of the gorgeous Helen OF
Troy some time ago. History made
only yesterday afternoon has not
yet recorded what Dr. Robert Simp-
son and his fellow judges of the
USO Beauty Contest exclaimed
when their gaze first fell upon the
pictures of not just one but 81
lovely ladies whose relative de-
grees of pulchritude they were OBJ
liged to appraise. But We'll bet
they were speechless because they
certainly were confronted with
some breathtaking charm! Anyway
the important thing is that the
Doctor and his associate judges
Mrs. Thomas S. Parke and Lu Lis
ton, have made their selections, the
very attractive prizes have beer
bought, ana all is in readiness tc
make the announcement of the
first, second and third place win
ners at tonight's dance at the USO
You may recall that we recently
reported that the winner of the
beauty contest sponsored by the
Club in February subsequently
came to Juneau and married the
man entering her picture. Tonight
let's be prepared to wish the same
good luck to all three Servicemer
whose beautiful best girls are the
winners of this present contest.

country, everyone knows, have been
having a tough time lately, too
many of their musicians being la.
Obviously their loss has been the
gain of Seryicemen's bands. This
certainly is true of the outfit whose
really fine dance music has been
giving SO much enjoyment in re-
cent weeks to our men and ESQ
girls. This band is good, of course,
because individually the men who
make it up are so good. We'd like
to give you a brief sketch of the
musical background Of each of
them, what civilian orchestraS he
played with, etc. but space won't
permit You probably know already
that Lieut.. Robert Lagle, Of In
diana, who played the drums and
led his college outfit, had the
major part in developing this band.
Here is the list of the men who
play regularly or who serve as fire.
quent and most capable replace
ments. and their home states
tenor sax, Gordon Johnson, Min
nesota; violins, Harold Holstrom,
Washington, and Orville Hansen,
whose state we can't recall but who
is home on furlough now; gui-
tars, Eddie Pinelli, of New Jersey,
and Henry Sanner, Of Minnesota;
bass fiddle, Stan" Standish, Wash
ington; drums, Jack Cohen, New
York, and Tommy Russo, Missouri;
clarinet and tenor sax, Bob Yet
ter, Washington; piano, George
Schnell, Minnesota, and Bob Satire,
of Juneau. Just one further item
of a biographical nature: Gordon
Johnson's home town is Thief River
falls, and maybe it's no coincidence
that the sweet flowing music of
that tenor sax Of his just naturally
steals your heart away.
We're glad to report that after
quite some delay our fellows at
last are able to enjoy horseshoes
just outside the Club house. AL
ready the stakes are bit the worse
for the accurate pitching to which
they've been subjected, and the
boxes have taken a beating from
some Army trucks; but at least
the games have been started, To
date nobody has demonstrated his
clearcut superiority, although there
is no doubt as to the identity of
the best player your reporter has
seen in action He is Corporal Ward
Hamilton, Of the M.P.'s, and we
/ understand that he and his father
have been county champions back
home. He really is good. Inciden-
tally, if you haven't played the
game recently, you may be sur
prised to see how big the shoes
are. Measuring by tx inches
those shoes never could have fit
any horse except one of the pre-
historic Alaskan variety.
