THEY ENLISTED HERE
G. I. Unmentionable«:
Did you know there is a G.I. brassiere and that there
are G.I. panties, all kinds, which would seem to include
pink ones and lace ones?
We don’t get ’em here, but evidently the gals of
the Women’s Army Auxiliary corps do, because they are
mentioned in a WAAC bulletin which the War Depart­
ment has sent out.
•‘Upon honorable discharge or relief from active
duty,” it say«, “enrolled member« and officers may
retain [x-rmanently in their possession articles of cloth­
ing a.s follows: Brassiere, WAAC; Girdle, WAAC;
Pajamas, WAAC, all kinds; Punties, WAAC, all kinds;
Slips; Stockings; Bag, WAAC, utility.”
Colored Man Rescues
Wounded Navy Ensign
There are many other items, but those are the ones
most different from the items seen in Camp Adair
barracks.

Told in A.P. Report
Before she may keep certain item», a WAAC gal

apply to panties or brassiere.

Finds Food Perfect
And Prices to Match
Now that it’s at your disposal,
the Sentry investigated to find out
what you liked most umong the
things that are offered by it.
Of course we’re talking about
tin- newly-opened Service Club cafe-
tc-riu at the No. 2 Club house. It
opened last Saturday morning ut
7 o’clock and has been doing a
"bind office" business ever since,
according to Miss Currie Reedy
who is in charge. The club comes
under the jurisdiction of Capt. Alex
Ruth, Special Services officer, and
Lt Kolieit E. Mailonee, who is
Service ('lull officer.
No effort was spared to pro-
ide a modern restaurant-cafe-
til la. equipped with every con­
venience and staffed with compe­
te nt personnel. Well over a hun-
died persons cun lx- accommodated
nt one time, mid the doors are
opened front 7 a. ni. until 10 p. m.
Club breakfasts, special luncheons
mid dinners, as well ns an a la
carte menu with wide selections,
will la- available at all times with
moderate and fair prices, well
within the means of every en­
listed man, prevailing.
Mian Reedy said that the moat
popular morning snack wan the fa­
miliar "donuts and coffee,” all for
a thin dime. Coffee at any time is
n specialty, and the hostess gilded
that she always samples the first
cup, and if it isn't up to specifica­
tions, has more coffee made.
Steaks are another specialty
. with cube steaks at 40 cents,
chicken fried steaks, 50 cents, anil
T-bone at 60 cents. Hamburger
sandwiches (ini-at in a masticated

Salvage Trucks Scour
Camp in Scrap Drive
A concentrateil effort to bling
in all the scrap metal within the
camp and from rural areas and
communities outside the post gets
under way today. Outlying <lis-
tricta have been divided anil (lef.
inite areas assigned to the divis
ions for a complete and thorough
coverage. Details and trucks from
the 8CU-1911 have been assigned
the task of collecting all scrap
within the boundaries of the post
proper.
During the past several days
army trucks have beet, dispatched
to nearby towns for the purpose of
picking up scrap collections for
delivery to the salvage yard at
Camp Ailair.
By nightfall of this day, Lt.
Paul B. Morgan, salvage officer
who receives aiul cares for storage
of the scrap before shipment, ex
pacts the already large scrap pile
under his cure to be increased by
ifiuny tons.
At the last national tabulation,
Oregon was among the top three
of the 4H states in the collection of
scrap metal. The contribution pos-
siblr through the cooperation of
Camp Adair will uii.l niati rially to
the state’s total tonnage.

HITLER’S DREAM
There’« a story now current.
Though strange it may seem,
Of great Adolf Hitler—
His wonderful dream.
He tired of the allies.
So laid down in bed
And among other things
He dreamt he was dead
And in a fine coffin
While lying in state,
With h guard of brave Poles,
Who mourned for his faith.
On leaving this earth
To Heaven he went straight.
And when he got there
He knocked at the gate.
St. Peter looked out,
In a voice loud and clear said:
"Nix. Adolf Hitler,
We don’t want you here.”
“Well, now,” said Herr Hitler.
‘‘That’s very uncivil,
I suppose ufter this
I must go to the divil.”
He turned on his heels
And off he did go
At the top of his speed
To the regions below.
But when he got there
He was filled with dismay,
For while waiting outside
The devil did say:
“I’m expecting that Hitler
To come here today,
But to me it's quite clear
He's a very bad man
And we don't want him here.
For if gets in there will
Always he quarrels,
In fact I'm afraid
He'll corrupt our good morals.
“Excuse me for listening,
Then Hitler did cry,
“You won't let me in.
Where in hell can I die?
I'll «it in a corner.
No matter how hot,”
“No, no," cried the devil,
“Moat certainly not.
We admit no one here
For gold or for pelf.
Take thia box of matches,
Raise hell with yourself."
He kicked Hitler out
And then vanished in snioke.
And ju»t at that moment
Old Hitler awoke.
He jumped out of bed
In a shivering sweat, saying
"That bloody dream
I shall never forget.
I won't go to heaven,
I know very well.
But it's pretty damn bad
To be kicked out of hell."

count published widely in the 1

"A young naval ensign,” says
the account, originating in Holly­
wood, “told today how a powerful
Negro mess attendant swam for
six hours through shark-infested
waters, towing to safety a raft
loaded with wounded seumen from
a U. S. destroyed sunk by the Japs
off the Solomons.
