Sullivan, of Montrose, Calif., and she had just, been married to Lt. Robert E. Becker, of the 104th Division, and son of Mrs. Hugh Oliver, of Pittsburgh, Calif. They were married in St. Mary’s church, Corvallis, with the bride’s mother as matron of honor and Lt. Gerard W. Matze as best man.

The pen is now a spa cious corral with an enclosed area to which Forward retires during bad weather. Clean sawduit forms a floor — a salt lick is standard equipment. Condensed milk and greens form a large part of For­ ward’s diet—and he shows the first proud signs of an aiderman. The colonel is a bit worried about this. “We’ll have to work that off when Forward goes back to duty. This is a fighting outfit and he's got to be broken to the lead. We want him to be able to do columns left and right—double time. Maybe even “to-the-rear march,” he said hopefully. Forward seemed to enjoy having his pelt scratched. Now he's got a complete grooming outfit. He was observed shivering. A blanket, with batallion insigna and motto, is be­ ing made. He moped one day, and a veterinary w’as sent for on the double. The vet’s bored verdict— “a little drowsy, that’s all.” Sol­ diers breathed easier. The other day—for the first time —Forward kicked up his heels in sheer joy of life. The colonel saw it happen from his window. "My men have actually loved him to death—I mean life,” he pronounced. “You might add that the Timber Wolf Division knows how to take care of a sick calf—just as well as it knows how to ‘stalk and kill’.

A nine-weeks-old calf crop* the grass in front of a field artillery batallion of the 104th Division. He is the mascot of the outfit which has a steer’s head for its insignia. And keeping the headquarters’ grass down to GI length is a duty which he gratefully performs. For the calf which is stunted be­ cause of lack of food and water, probably wouldn’t lie here to b-a-a, | if it were not for the tender care of his soldier attendants. Some time ago several privates of the outfit found the calf near one of the vacant farmhouses on the camp. It was starved—barely able to stand on its spindle legs. As Pvt. Michael Nickolite, leader of the group, puts it: “We hated to see anything go without water.” So for a week Pvt. Nickolite and fellow herders car­ ried water and food to the calf who waited for them near the farm­ house—more than a mile’s walk from their company. By this time the curiosity of their commander, Colonel U. P Sannet, was aroused. “Where the ----- are you going all the time,” he inquired politely. The privates told him anxiously, from then on kept him informed of all progress until he yielded and gave them permission to haul the caif back as outfit mascot. The calf’s pen was up in an hour and he was as promptly named “Forward Ho” — the motto of the Tat»«h NN lUiaan i PWtBRBaMk C«
