If you should be in the neighbor- hood of the Hartford railroad sta tion tonight and hear the trium- phant blaring of a brass band it will be an announcement of the long-awaited arrival of Mrs. Wal ter Ward Flanigan, belle of Ten nesse. All those present are to be invited to a gala house-warming party by the Flanigans, and will be greeted there by Jack Daniels.
 Still unsolved is the mystery of the pearl bracelet sported by Car roll Buffum last Sunday morning.
 We couldn't understand Wild Bills haste to return to the base from home last weekend. Could it be that home cooking upsets your emotional balance, Bill?
 The bells will ring for another guy and gal of this outfit-school bells, we mean. Herb Whitbeck and Stella Lucas are to point their noses to Indianapolis and take off for a period of detached service at Fort Ben Harrison. Good luck, students. -f.

 Quote of the week (from J. s. Batten): ''There is nothing like a short stay in the hospital to put a good soldier in top fighting condi- tion." And he downs another vita min pill.
 We always like to acknowledge our mistakes. When Jay Kelly first showed up, we classed him as a wolf. He always seemed to be walking around with his tongue hanging out. Now we know it was only his G.I. necktie.
 We note that Webber Earth mans recent furlough has benefit ed general efficiency. He has re- turned with such renewed vigor and energy that his whip-cracking may be heard all over the office.
 Last minute flash! (We had to delay the deadline for this one.) Cpl. Price Barnes returned from furlough with that altared look in his eye, and after being questioned revealed that he had started his furlough by walking down the aisle and changing a young lady's name from Ruth Slown to Mrs. Price Barnes.

SKIDMORE COLLEGE GIRLS DONATE 800 BOOKS
 TO BASE LIBRARY

Our particular thanks to some eight hundred particular Tanks at Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, New York, who have re- gently completed a Pocket Book Campaign for the benefit of the men at Bradley Field.
 Under the slogan, Books for Bradley" the college girls collect ed over 800 paper-bound books which were received at the Base Library this week. The shipment included over 100 different titles; fiction and non-fction, some title of interest in almost every field. Mysteries, Western, Poetry, Shakespeare, Humor, Religion, Cartoons, Cross-words, and even

Etiquette-no reason for any one of you now to face boring train ride, or a sleepy night as co.
 Four large cartons have been packed for distribution to Day Rooms, one carton has been put aside for the new Non-Coms' Club, the rest have been put on the Give Away Shelf at the library. During the first day twenty-five of the books have found their way into twenty-five coat pockets. We sug- gest you visit the Library at your earliest convenience, perhaps your favorite book is there, and it's yours for the asking!

SIGNAL DOTS
 AND DASHES
By sfsGT. E. J. GYEBNAR

When Cpls. Mark Juratovac and Bill Cosman returned to Bradley Field after 26 weeks of detached service, they thought that they had walked into the wrong barracks. They were greeted by several new men of this section, plus the few old-timers who bid them "adieu" over six months ago. Despite the fact that things seemed strange and different, the boys got back in to the swing quite fast. Jerry still gets that gleam in his eyes each time a "beefer" is mentioned-and Cosman hasn't changed a bit-ex- cept for that mustache. Don't wor- ry Bill, we'll probably learn to like it after we get used to it. Well come back, boys-and we hope that your stay here will be a long one.

 Pfc. l.. D. Tribble is really train ing in earnest for his next boxing match. However, well-informed sources say that he is training for a real match in April.

 The Signal Section boys who have been transferred to the Signal Section 331st Sub-Depot for duty, really enjoy their new job. Pvt. Edward Grajczyk is excited with all those girls around.
