WE ! l.
 We opened the new basketball son last Monday aga inst Operations and un- fortunat ely the scoreboardd did not light up n our favor. One Marine from Brook 1yn, a spectator at the game, came back to the Barracks with a distorted look of anger and an exclamation of 'We wuz robbed." At any rate, three or possibly four members of our team were deemed cara ble enough to play on the All-Sta- tion team. lance Corporals John LLORCA and Robbie BOYIAN & PFC hllas FERGUSON and possibly PFC Otis HARR ISON have been chosen to play withthe Stat ion team and we feel sure they will show they are worthy of the honor.
 Sonnet ines around the Barracks, sea stories get to be pretty tall and in- var1a bly, the subject gets around to the prof ions held in civilian life. Mar inc Barracks personnel have the back ground for some tall story-t cling in that pect. for among the troops are e7--farmland filling station att endants, newsboys, st ockboys, and cooks (though no one who was a coo]xworlxs in that cap~ acity in the service), besides various and sundry jobs suchas porter, caddy, pool table racker, barte nder, and an usher. Even sheep-shearer, a house. mover. psychologist, and cowboy. One Marine peddled newspa pers at the Marine Recruit Depot in San Diego for five years and ill decided he'd brave the rough boot camp he Id been observing as a civ- i1ian.
 Unity and cooperation are bywords for the Marine Corps and it is sometim hard to train so many different types of men for a common goal, but it sure makes for an intere sting atmos phere and some real tall tales told in night 1y bull seSsi Ons

" With a new pres mt for Am--
 W erica and two stars recently
 ~ added to our nat ional colors.
 lT 1t might be an opportune t inc
 ~..~ ~ ~ to review some points about ,~~~ f' -~- our American Flag. The Flag I pres ents the living count ny N and is considered aliving thing. The req son that it is always displayed on the right is that the right arm is the sword arm; t.e., the point of danger; hence, the right is the place of honor. The National Flag is never fest ooned, tied in 8 bow or fashioned int "a rosett e, Bunting of red. white, should be used for these dec orat ions.
 The National Ems ign in any position below the peak (the top of the mast) is technically in the nlf-nast posi- ion. However. the normal position for half- mast is halfway between the peak and the foot of the mast. National Ems igns are Z authorized in three sizes: the St orm - Flag (5'x95'). Post Flag (lo'Xl9D, and the Garrison Flag (2o'x38' flown on Sum- days and Holidays). On Adak, only the Storm and Post Flagsare used due to the bad weather.
 The only Flag to flya bove the tional colors is the church pennant; and that only during divine services. On each occasion that the Flagis displayed, it is afforded the place of honor and ex- tensive care is taken that due respect be given 1t and that it not be allowed to touch the deck. It is every service- mans duty to guard and respect our liv- ing Nati onal Co1ors and let no country or organizat ion mar or destroy the Flag or the "United States for which it stands.

Pointing to the Library of
Congress copy of the Guten-

Lessing j. Rosenwald said with
awe:
ut is amazing that this first
book printed should have
reached such a state of perfec-
ton. Book printing is the only
art which blossomed in full
bloom at the very beginning,
and in the whole history of
printing, there has not been
found anything equaling it in
printing quality or good taste. P"
