USO Again Organized to
Help Men in Armed Services
The USO is back in Oregon again and operating over the
world to be another home for more than 16,000 young Ore
gonians in the armed forces, now serving their country at home
and in foreign ports.
Already one of the United Service Organizations centers has
a fine setup at Astoria. And
early this month a camp show,
complete with Hollywood stars,
made one-night stands at the
veterans1 hospitals in both Med
ford and Roseburg.
In charge of the program in
this state is Robert R. Boardman
of Salem, who headed the war
time USO in the capital city,
backed by a state-wide commit
tee of prominent citizens.
Oregon people, veterans and
civilians alike, will remember
the hospitality, happiness and
help that service men gained
from USO centers during the
World war II. That's what it's
doing again in some 200 spots
over the globe, and what is plan
ned soon for Portland.
The idea is to meet the needs
Of the soldiers, sailors and air
men. Considerably younger on
the average than their war
time counterparts, - they are
mostly "civilians in uniform"
and five times as numerous as
the service men of a decade ago
before the war.
Veterans hospital camp shows
one phase of the program
which will come more and more
to Oregon carry on the wide
spread tours of war years. Now
they're doing the job among
men who gave their service and
are under treatment.
That job is to give the best
of entertainment to match the
veterans' administration goal of
the best of medical care. The
sponsors, 27 show business or
ganizations, and the USO-set up
the units that bring a new show
every three weeks to each hos
pital. Thy're designed to stage a
full-scale show in an auditorium
or to bring the acts to the boys
who can't leave their beds.
