The Engineer softball team was victor again Tuesday night when they nosed out the Medics by a 5-3 score. Their next game will be with the Air Corps. The members of the detachment have been busy moving into their new quarters in the civilian barracks If everything comes off as planned, they should be all settled in their new home by today.
 Meeting the AACS. Take for in- stance Pfc. Wayne P. Jackson, whose hobby is photography and who seems to spend most of his off time taking pictures and devel- oping them over at the photo lab. He has recently bought a new camera and claims it is really good. He is also an amateur flyer and flys about bit at the civilian air field in Nome. He gets about quite a bit for a lad from the windy city of Chicago.
 This week was very slow one for the Detachment Tenth Rescue. We didn't get to play QM in soft ball the other day. When we do play them, the game will count as two. Oh yes, the Tenth had new addition to the happy family this week. S/Sgt. is the man. We all hope he enjoys his stay here very much. eff the mosquitoes don't get him first)
 This weeks main interest in Hq. Det. was, undoubtedly, mosqui- toes. T/Sgt. Langley spent most of his off hours checking people in and out, through the screen door threatening an awful fate to anyone who allowed mosquito to get into the barracks. Cpls. Siler and Clemente and Pfc. Winslow made a recruiting trip to Kotze- bue Monday and said that it was quite an interesting and enjoyable experience. We have lost Sgt. Yer non Smith who has returned to the States for discharge.
 The Signal Detachment softball team has been broken up for quite a while, because of lack of play CTS. Several of the fellows on the team have joined the lineup of other teams in the league. Among those are Buscher and Morrison who made a valuable addition to the Hdqrs. team, and Lansford who joined the Air Corps team.
 The 53rd Aircraft Detachment extends it's sympathy to Cpl. Bobby Mckenzie, who has return ed to the States on an emergency furlough. He was summoned be- cause of the grave illness of his father. We hope he has a speedy and safe trip to his home in Mi ami, Florida. The detachment is figuring on moving to another barracks before long.
