 Our geography travels took us from Alaska to the Hawaiian Is- lands. We enjoyed our visit to these tropical islands that produce so much sugar cane and pineap- ples.

Its principal industries are agri- culture, numbering and mining. We are busy making health posters. Each one is working out a different idea and we expect to have some good ones.

IT HAPPENED somewhere in the Pacific. The boys of
] the sth Air Force were occupying" a Godforsaken
jungle island which had been taken from the Japs.
The heat, and the bugs, and the dirt were unbeatable.
The Loneliness was almost beyond belief.
Then-on a sweltering airstrip one morning a plane
came down out of the sky. And out of il stepped two
Red Cross girls, american girls.
Hi there, Soldiers!' Their voices were like magic.
American girls, like the sisters and sweethearts they
hadn't seen for SO many long months-greeting them
as they'd been greeted SO often in the old, happy days
at home. Yes, tears filed the eyes of more than one of
those fighting men. Brave men they were, crying
u~nashamed!
Many thousands of our men are still overseas. They're
lonely. They're homesiek. They need your Red Cross
nolp. And Red Cross men and women are at their side.
But only yoa can keep them there. Through your con-
tributions you make il possible for the Red Cross TO
see them through. Give today!

the eight-round feature bout at Gus
Ludwig's third boxing show tomor-
row night at the Armory
Supporting the feature, there will
be a six-round, seminal, between
Melvin Wade and frankie Les, and
three, four FOUNDERS. The three pre-
liminary bouts will bring together
Bobby Van Kirk and Edgar Poe;
Bruce Johnson and Tommy Porter,
and last, but not least, that Hagers-
town dynamo from the Marine
Corps, Joe Ford, who goes up against
Charlie Madison
The feature bout will be a sort of
Army VS.. Navy affair, since Irish
O'Connell is Navy veteran, while
his colored opponent, Frank Lacy,
was recently discharged from the
u. S. Army. Both boys have been
featured on Baltimore and Wash
ington cards and are reported to
pack real wallops. O'Connell has
thirteen straight wins to his credit,
including a knockout victory over
Al Spalding in Washington, and a
win over Booker Robinson in his
last fight in Baltimore.
Lacy, too, has an imposing record
since being discharged having won
all six of his fights. He won from
Johnny Ditto and Joe Shannon via
the knockout route, decisioned King
Kong Walker and, in his last fight
in the Baltimore Coliseum, earned a
unanimous decision over Bob Hart
of Philadelphia, The colored boy is
said to be a better boxer than
O'Connell, but not quite as heavy a
hitter.
Tomorrow night might also give
the fans a better line on Joe Ford,
who flattened his opponent in the
last card, in exactly sc seconds of
the first round, The local boy will
be going up against a more exper-
fenced boy in Charlie Madison, and
if he fattens him like he did McCar-
rem, then you can bet your bottom
dollar that his next fight will see
him out of the preliminaries and
into semi-final bout at least.

All season long I've been waiting
to pin one on Ell Ellinger, of the
Rotary Club League, but that guy
kept piling up high score after high
score and it looked as if the season
would end without my being able to
take a crack at him. Right up TO
and including the annual Rotary
Kiwanis-Lions Roll-off, Ell kept up
his high average (the Rotary team
won the roll-off and Ell won the high
score trophy with 629 total for the
five games), but it finally happened
- yes sir, it finally happened.
Coming up to the final game of
the five-team roll-off to decide the
Rotary Club League winner, ELS
team was right in the running -
and that was the time that Ell chose
to really blow up. All he had to do to
cinch the championship of the
league for his team was to bowl his
average game - it did not need any
of those really high scores he has
been piling up all season, just one
of his average scores - but what
does he do? That's right, you guess
ed it, he blew up completely and
rolled one of the worst games, if not
the worst, that he has bowled in
years.
The Cogs won the roll-off and are
the 1945-46 Rotary Club League
champions.
And now here's the fur Lined"
story of the Lions Club Bowling
League that promised you.
After we had done full justice to

the Fountain Head Country Club can
serve them, and had listened to Com
missioner Massey Roe tell that Max
Shoff's team would have done bet
ter if Pilson hadn't been away so
much while he was taking part in
the Pc strip tease" act, and that
Ed Chapman was still using four
balls, we got down to the real bust
ness of the evening - the handing
out of the prizes and gifts.
Massie Roe, who, by the way,
talked plenty about spares, fouls and
splits, but very carefully omitted
any mention of Strikes was pre-
sented with very handsome trophy
on completing his term of office as
commissioner of the league. John
Bentz copied the high average
award; BUD Fiery was the high
single game winner and Ross Cop
ley captured the high three-game
prize. Many other awards were
made to the runners-up in the vari-
GUS divisions, perfect attendance
etc., and then came the 'highlight"
of the evening.
In burst of eloquence, Ross Cop
ley Chow that guy gets in my hair),
on behalf of himself and his fellow
conspirator, Max Shoff (there's an
other guy I seem to bump into
everywhere I turn around), present
ed me with a very handsome white
porcelain bowl" the handle of
which was decorated with red satin
ribbon, but much more important,
the BOWL was fur-lined for my
comfort.
