Tramp, tramp, tramp along the highway" was probably the thought in many a feller's mind CD as they bivouced to the New gate Prison range this week. Out side of a few. thousand blisters, sunburn and some sore shoulders, us guys enjoyed campin' out. Eager beaver, Cpl. Garner (and there were others) scaled the dwarf mountain, why, nobody knows. maybe to see what "goin' over the hill" was like. Monkey sees, mon- key does; so monkey did after an invitation performance by Cpl. Sen sel. Cpl. Bailey's mobile concession added zest to each break. Enough brakes and ones bound to end up broke Song bird Polivka got his two cents in on the return trip to camp. @
 Sugar reports have been comin' in right good for all here of late thanks to the fine job done in the mail room by Sgt. Barnes and Cpl. R. c. Smith. .
 To get anywhere with these new Wacs on the field, it seems, the first requirements is to be single or at least that's the experience of S/Sgt. Billy White.
 Double or nothing seems to be the count on beautiful gals around these parts. From reports, one of the many Sgt. Smiths always gets lem in pairs. Good goin', what tech nique do you use?
 Since S/Sgt. Lenghart's wife has gone home the Sarge has been do- ing a lot of fishing for bass.
 Sgt. Judge" Patterson had fly paper entanglement the other day and it resulted in one heck of a sticky mess. Right, Sergeant?
 The Polish Home of Hartford ap- pears to be the general gathering place for 162nd personnel on Satur- day nights lately.
 S/Sgt. Sloan tells Cpl. Hogan it is possible to have good fight without getting all banged up and coming out with a black eye. Could it be that experience is the best teacher?
 From all feelings, including Yours Truly, the Medics have had another enjoyable spree with that needle. Only a short time can elapse till they're at it again.
 Preparations are we'll in hand as we go to press for the gala picnic on the thirteenth. The eats sound real good and by the time you read this, you will have proof of every thing. It was grand way to end up 162nd's array of entertainment. The outfit has done alright by all of us. A big "Thank You" to all re- sponsible for our good times.

FIFTEEN MEN DIE

PORTSMOUTH, VA, April 27-
RAFifteen workmen were killed
by suffocating and at least 20
others were overcome by smoke
and fumes tonight when fire broke
out in the hold of a naval ship
undergoing repairs at the Norfolk
Navy Yard.
Fellow workers of the men
caught in the ship crowded the
dispensary at the navy yard to
identify the bodies of the victims
whose names naval officers de-
clined to release Immediately
pending notification Of their next
of kin.
The fire broke out in the vessel
about 500 o'clock tonight. The
men employed in the repair work
on the ship were civilian workers
at the yard.
All available ambulances were
sent from the Norfolk naval hospi-
tai here to the Navy yard to re-
move the workmen to the yard
dispensary, where many were
given artificial respiration.
