BLUE HILLS SCHOOL GROUP
 HELPS FINANCE MESSENGER

The pupils of the seventh and eighth grades of the Blue Hills School who staged the play Haunted High School" on April IA, voted to donate the proceeds of the production to the Messenger and the Blue Hills Honor Roll funds.
 Their net profits amounted to $55.22. Therefore each of the pro- jects will receive S27.61.
 The play was directed by Miss Marjorie Degnan, English teach CT at the east side school.
 Other organizations who have voted contributions toward the sec and year expense of publishing the Messenger are the Tunxis Grange and the Thursday Afternoon Club. The Grange's donation of $21.OO represents a dollar for each of it's members in the armed forces.
 The Blue Hills Neighborhood Club is planning a Card Party for the benefit of "The Messenger"

One WAC and an Army Nurse Already Overseas. All Branches Represented

The names of a number of Bloomfield girls may emblazon the pages of the history of World War H.
 Twenty-four women of local residence are already engaged in important service with the Wacs, Waves, Spars, Marines, or the Army or Navy Nursing Corps.
 Presumably others will follow suit.
 Although relatively few of the girls of these uniformed auxiliary services are trained to fight and limited number only will partic- ipate in combat zone duties, all are doing their bit by assuming ex- tremely important posts in other fields and in all instances are freeing men for front line engage ments.
 Kathryn G. Olynik, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Alexander Olynik, 119 Packard Street, one of the first of the Bloomfield girls to join the Wacs, is with the US. Army forces in western Italy and It. Ruth Rettig of the Army nurs- ing Corps is in the British Isles. A dozen others of the local feminine group-those attached to Wac or the Army Nursing Corps may see foreign service. Under present regulations, the ten serv- ing in the Waves, Spars and Mar ines will be retained on American assignments.
 Operating at General Eisen- hower's headquarters in North Africa, the Wacs played major role in planning the invasion of Sicily and Italy. They are now serving in the Middle East, in In dia, New Caledonia, and England as we'll as Italy and Africa: A great deal of research, preceding the foreign campaigns of Am erican forces, is done by women on duty at headquarter stations. Another important task undertak- en by the Wacs is in the field of psychological warfare, preparing propaganda material for broad cast Ii enemy countries.
 But those at American stations have been assigned to or are being trained for the assumption of equally important duties. All work quietly but efficiently, carefully inspecting and folding parachutes; out on the fields directing pilots to their parking spots; servlclng airships; or working behind locked doors in the code room, filling out forms, checking weather reports perhaps even dispatching orders to a military command in every instance performing task which has made it possible to send one more commissioned officer to some battle assignment.
 The service of the young women in the Waves, Spars, and Marines has helped make it possible to re- lease for sea duty enough men to take twelve large US. battleshlps to war against the enemy. Iney are being assigned to expanding shore activities which otherwise would have been staffed by men. 4Lo xryoYooon M9r1noS.
