Welcome back into the class of
civilians is extended to Richard H.
Piner, Dick, as he leaves the Navy

Instead of waiting for the Train
to Come In," the theme song of
the boys at Wrightsville Beach
should be waiting for the Bus to
Come In" George Clark, Bill Huff
man, Bill Stewart, and Pat Howe
were quite interested in its arrival
at Station I this past Thursday aft
ernoon. A remark I overheard
thrown at George Clark was,
George, if you only had a few
more freckles you'd have a nice
suntan."
Don't forget III very own pro-
gram given every Saturday morn-
ing over WMFD-"The Teen-Age-
Merry Go = Round" Those taking
parts r people we all know, and
it's lots of fun to listen to your pals
talk owe the radio. Who knows?
Maybe you'll get to be on it one
day, and wouldn't you like to have
lots of friends listening to what you
had to say?
My brother is standing here pest
ering me to death, and about every
other word I have to backspace
and correct errors. Just a minute
ago I tried the backspace, and not
only the carriage of the typewriter
went back, but the whole typeWrit-
er rose up and practically jumped
off the table. I couldn't imagine
what was wrong, but when I looked
at that innocent appearance on my
brothers face, 1 knew something
was wrong besides the typewriter.
Yes, he had wedged a pencil be-
tween the keys. and after removing
it, I was able to continue.
Today is the day that has been
set aside for our very special fella.
Yes, Fathers Day. 1 have just
about the two most perfect parents
anybody could want, and everyday
is their day around our house. But
when their very special day comes,
then We try to make them realize
that the doings of the day are made
even o wonderful just for them.
I hope you didn't forget your father
on this his very special day. If ne
is as swell as mine, I don't think
you could eve forget him!
The dance held at the Second
and Orange USO this past Satur-
day night marked the close of the
activities of the club which has
done much to provide a home
away from home for all of the
fellas who were doing their bit in
the service of their country. The
club will be closed until further
plans are made for it's continuance.
From his lifeguard stand on the
beach in front of Station 1, Macon
Rice, life-guard, scans the beach
for those in distress, and if there
happens to be a swimmer who has
gotten too near the %jetties or too
far out in trying to find the reef.
Macon takes off his tropical helmet
and dashes towards the sea and
the person in peril. Yes, Macon is
to be the protector of the sun-seek-
ers this summer. Don't you think
he'll do just fine?
Farewell for the one and only
Bill Huffman who left this past Fri
day to join the other Wilmington
ians in cambridge. If you want to
play a song that's one of the hits
of the day, and the very special
choice of Bill, choose "In Love in
Vain by Dick Haynes and Helen
Forrest.
Laughing On the Outside" is an
other one of the popular recordings
of young as well as old. Most of
the Glen Miller records have been
reissued, and prove to be among
the top tunes of today and tomor-
row. Who else can ever play Little
Brown jug" or moonlight Sere-
nade'' like Glen Miller and his or
chestra?
must close now but I'll be back.
