Autograph
Party Set
An autograph party for Major
George L. Hall’s newly published
-^'book, “Sometime Again,” has been
arranged by G. W. Gill Publishing
Co. for 3 p.m. Friday in the Co-op.
Major Hall was a graduate with
the class of ’39, a member of Delta
Tau Delta fraternity and ivas
awarded the Failing-Beekman
prize in his senior year for' orig
inal oration.
Captures Alaska
“Sometime Again” is a book
that captures the mood of Alaska
to be read in the evening by a
cozy fireplace. The book is written
in such a way that one can almost
hear the ravens scream and the
wolves howl to their mates in the
frozen interior, reviews say.
“If you have ever been to Alaska
the book will be especially inter
esting to you; if you have not, you
will immediately catch its haunt
ing appeal,” according to Gill’s.
Not a War Book
. “Although it is definitely not a
“*'war book, there are thrilling
stories of the submarine scare that
interrupted a poker game; of the
rumor over the ship that the skip
per had lost his way in the fog.”
Everyone is invited to meet
Major Hall and receive his auto
graph on this new book on Friday.
Letter Received From
Ex-Webfoot in Germany
Former Webfoot Jack Boone,
law student who left the campus
in 1942, recently wrote a letter to
Dean Karl W. Onthank telling of
his experiences in Germany. Boone,
a member of ATO fraternity, is
now with a paratroop division sta
tioned in Frankfurt, Germany,
^"guarding USFET headquarters.
One of the highlights of his duty
there has been his visit to General
Eisenhower’s impressive office.
While on a seven-day leave in
London, Boone noticed that the
damage to the city was not too
obvious now. Although he will be
stationed in Frankfurt indefinitely,
Boone expressed his wish to come
back to the University of Oregon
when he leaves the army.
A recent survey has shown that
fifty per cent of all married
couples in Denver are women.

Maj. Godfrey Now Editor of
Army Publication in Germany
Stars and Stripes, and Der Stunner, Julius Streicher's vio
lently anti-Jewish newspaper, are both being published in the
same plant, according to a letter recently received bv George
S. Turnbull, acting dean of journalism, from Maj. George. H.
Godfrey, formerly head of the University News bureau. Major
Godfrey has been gone nearly tour
years on war leave and now is of
ficer in charge of the southern
Germany edition of Stars and
Stripes.
His letter reads, in part:
"The interesting thing is that
we are now publishing Stars and
Stripes in the same plant, on the
same presses, and with many of
the same workmen. I am sure you
will agree it is quite a contrast,
especially since at least three
members of my editorial staff are
Jewish!
In Charge
“You probably have heard by
this time that I am now in charge
of the southern Germany edition
of Stars and Stripes. It is no trifl
ing job, since we have a circulation
of more than 250,000, and when de
mobilization is complete we will
bo the official and only newspaper
for our troops over here.
“I have a splendid editorial staff
of about 15, and have charge of
some 150 other GI’s. We also em
ploy 200 civilians in the plant, and
another 200 doing construction
work here.
Good Plant
“The plant itself is really mar
velous. It has a huge press, cap
able of a press run of 10-page
papers, capacity more than 50,000
per hour, and if we need it, we can
run color also. We have nine
American Linotypes, our own en
graving; department- just about
everything you can imagine in a
first-rate plant."
“Baby dumpling, say hello to
auntie.”
“I hate choo, I hate choo."
“Darling.”
“I hate choo, I hate choo."
“Listen, ugly, say hello to your
aunt before mamma knocks what
ever teeth you’ve got down your
throat.”
“Why auntie, dear, when did you.
