u OREA.--Next to rotation. there is
IN. nothing quite like r. and r. Take
it from one who knows, it is the most
wonderful experience, short Of coming
home, that q soldier here can have.
For those unfamiliar with this fa-
milar service terminology, r. and r. is
the Army's abbteviation for rest and re-
cuperation leave in Japan.
So far. about $4,000 troops, includ-
ing 10,4O0 from the 1st Cavalry, have
had it, and there is not dissenter
among them. To man, they agree it's
great.
From the time you board . plane in
Korea until the time you get back, it's
five full days Of rest and recuperation-
five days with no thoughts Of war; five
days to live in grand style.
f.. and r. provides the opportunity to
do things you've dreamed about. Some
even call it rehearsal for rotation"
We left Korea In q C-5k. The men
(from the 1st Cavalry Division) stin
wore dirty fatigues and carried their
weapons. A few hours earlier, some Of
them had been shooting from frontline
foxholes.
Now each man had something differ
ent in mind. Some just wanted rest.
Others wanted fun. All wanted to for
get war.
The fight took nearly i've hours, but
this doesn't count against the i've days
r. and r. Neither does the return trip.
Leave doesn't begin oficially until mid
night Of the day you arrive at Japan's
big Tachikawa Airport or some other
field. 1t ends at midnight 120 hours
later
Less than two hours after reaching
the r. and r. processing center at Camp
Drake, you're on your own. But what
two hours.
First. they take your weapon from
you. You'll get 1t back five nights later,
cleaned and serviced, with new parts,
II necessary. Then they give you a big
dinner-Steak and the trimmings. It's
the biggest steak you've seen since you
left the States, and good. For dessert
a big dish Of chocolate ice cream-a
soup bowl full.
You've only started to live. You turn
in all your clothes (theyu give you more
fatigues on the return trip). Then you
take hot shower and head upstairs for
clean uniforms-fresh khakis and COM
plete sets Of clothing, enough to last
the full five days. They even give you
q bag to carry things in and sew on
your patches and other insignia while
you're dressing. If you need money,
they'll pay you. The service is elegant.

After reading the letter Of william c.
LOCKER In The Star. can't help but
think how narrow minded some people
can be. His blasts at organized labor
are the epitome of ignorance.
Does Mr.. LOCKER forget that In the
time Of need, World War II, organized
labor produced the greatest military
machine this world has ever known?
Does he realize what it means to not
be organized? certainly hope he read
the article in The Star, captioned "90

wonder if Mr.. LOCKER ever had
callous on his hand?
AS for Senator Taft. the only reason
he was reelected was because he was a
candidate in Ohio.

Start AT
Three O'Clock
Tuesday Afternoon

Convent Athletic Instructor
Juanita Kovash announced to-
day that three of the City's
foremost tennis players will be
guest coaches in a series of les
sons for convent pupils.
To meet the requests of par
ents that their children in the
Convent receive the fundamen-
tails of the game, the school in
vited Captain Payson, Com
mander Watson, and Ralph Har-
tenstine to teach a series of
nine lessons. This invitation has
been accepted and Captain Pay
son will begin the program next
Tuesday afternoon at three
o'clock. Other leading players
may be invited to take part.
Mrs. Kovash explained that
the nine-part program is aimed
primarily at beginners. She said:
Since the new school began,
my students have been asking
for tennis instruction. Their in
terest has been aroused and sus-
tanned by the accomplishments
of Eleanor Cato, June Yates,
Barbara Twiehaus, Diana Fer

Convent Students Will Receive
Instructions From Three OF Key
Vests Foremost Tennis Players

Convent matches continuing
success. They want to follow ins
their STEPS. AS you know, the
beginning stage in any sport IS
the hardest to cross, and ] wish
to say on behalf of the school
that we are grateful 10 Captain
Payson, Commander Watson, and
Mr.. Hartenstine for making pos
sible to our students an oppor-
tunity to launch themselves IN
the game.
Meanwhile, Convent parents
are searching for ways to pro-
vide a tennis court on the cam
pus for the Converts fledglings
and established players to play
on. Fortunately there is an old
court there now, and, while its
top is too battered to permit
further play. it can serve as the
foundation for the new concrete
surface that the parents agree Is
a prime Convent need. The pub
lie courts, they say, are 50 filled
to overlooking with eomblna-
ton of seniors, juniors, Navy
and visitors after school hours
that it is well nigh impossible
for their children to obtain
court often enough to learn the
game. The parents will meet in
formally this month to determine
how to secure the resurfacing.

two, which was enough for a first
down.
One of the triekest plays to be
witnessed was pulled with Cruz
fading back as if to pass, then
Cooper crossed over in front off
him and took the ball on the dead
run. went around the right side
down to the Vero Beach 40. Cruz
tried a pass which was incomplete,
Osterhoudt was held for no gain.
This ended the quarter.
Fourth Quarter: Cruz passed to
Cooper who took the ball on the 20
and crossed into the promised land

no good.
After taking the kickoff on the

to run the left side. but Cruz came
up from his halfback position, and
pulled him 10 the turf just one
short yard away from a score.

This honor would be appre-

an honor.
