HURLEY’S DRUGS, Albany
Federal men are in Corvallis now
working with the local committee
to perfect the USO service in Cor
vallis.
Between 5000 and 6000 soldiers
are expected to be in Corvallis
daily when Camp Adair is at ca
pacity, and if enlarged, as rumored,
more than that number will be in
town each day, with nothing to do,
and a building, or several, as the
case may be is necessary. Persons
who have been to other camp locali
ties say it looks as if Corvallis
must learn the hard way.”
The USO building is not only a
service to the soldiers, but to wives
and sweethearts and other rela
tives who are visiting all the time

OPENING A SECOND FRONT will be the job of troops seasoned to the shocks of war. That is why the
British troops shown in these pictures are being trained today, not only to be efficient with their own
weapons, but also to know what it feels like to be “blitzed.” At left, a plane has just screamed low
over their heads in an “attack," and now a mine is detonated right in front to simulate the burst of the
’dive-bomb.” Above tank men in low-slung fast British Valentines feel what it’s like to have two very
close explosions. Below, infantry literally ‘‘go through fire" as part of a two-week course at a Battle
School in South-East England. When the time is ripe for the Second Front, they will know what to do.
