Floats Through The regular Monday evening community sing at Club 2 under the direction of Miss Madge Kuh- warth, recreational hostess, got off to a good start when Sgt. Nick Sansonia temporarily discarded his tenor voice for that of a screechy soprano. The singing was conducted in an informal manner. Some sang, standing around the piano. Others lounged in chairs throughout the club. Quite a few individual tones were in evidence. Club 1 had its singfest on Tues day evening. Miss Ann Caddy as usual placed Cpl. “Oscar” Hayes in charge of the group. Lassies and Comedy Make Up Hot Revue To Be Presented EM And Adair Officers In line with its policy of bring- g top flight entertainment to the en in the armed forces, USO- imp Shows will present the reamlined musical revue, “Hulla- iloo,” at Camp Adair May 5 and 6. The details of where and at what me this extravaganza of rhythm id comedy will take place, will be inounced in next week’s issue of e Sentry. Spotlighting talented performers om the Broadway and Hollywood g time, “Hullabaloo” is a fast- iced revue filled with plenty of ¡medy, dancing and rhythm. The famed comedians, Stone and >e, are one of the major attrac- pns in “Hullabaloo.” Al Stone pcees the show, tieing it together iry neatly with his very funny id very glib routines which get er big. His wife, who works th him, is also no mean shakes getting the laughs. From a recent tour with Chico irx, of the famous Marx Bro- ?rs, come Smith, Rogers and dy, whose comedy dancing and my antics have scored hits in all ‘ theatres they have appeared on the major circuits both in this intry and in Europe. The Four Little Sisters joined ullabaloo” directly after finish in a long engagement as featured ;alists with Hal McIntyre and orchestra at the Commodore tel in New York. Popular har pists, whose rendition of fav- ite melodies has made them a rrent sensation, they have been :ard over radio stations WMCA id WHEW and on the Cocoa Cola ogram. Page Nine Books May Be Sent To Prisoner Camps .. Or the Week This week’s billfold honors go to Marlyn Vedler of Hollywood, Cal- ifornia, who is the prized posses- sion of Sgt. Bernie Axelrad, that famed connoisseur of feminine beauty. The Sgt. is originally from New York city but managed to get around on his furlough. Marlyn is a 19 year ol<l blond who hails from Tacoma, Washing- ton. Her ambition is to carve out a movie career for herself, and the Sgt. says that he stands ready to help her carve. Bernie remarked that he thinks she’s got what it takes. (Editor’s note: “Well any way, she’s got everything we want in a girl.) At present Sgt. Axelrad is re stricted by the war to carrying on a platonic friendship via corre spondence with Marlyn, but when Mars gives up the ghost, who knows ... all roads may lead to Hollywood. Meanwhile we agree with the Sgt. who ■says “Phooey on this platonic stuff!” Musical Varieties Feature at Club 1 For Easter Program Club 1 had a variety musical program on Easter Sunday. Pvt. Mahon Tullis played several semi- classical selections. Katherine Cheshier, a visitor who stayed at Guest House 1 dropped over to entertain the boys with a few torch songs. Pvt. Louis Godla played his vio- lin. Miss Ann Caddy, recreational hostess, remarked that Pvt. Godla can really make his instrument talk. Pvt. Pat Marino also sang some vocal selections. Several movie shorts were shown. Among these were “Alaska Silver,” “Vanishing Herd,” and “Helpful Henry.” Pvt. Harold Ras- kin operated the motion picture m?chine. V-Mail The War Department announces that V-Mail equipment is now in stalled at all overseas areas. The last spot was North Africa where two V-Mail sending and receiving stations have been opened. A program for the distribution of books to officially identified prisoners of war and civilian in ternees in enemy occupied coun tries has just been set up by seven government agencies and the Red Cross, the Office of W’ar Informa tion announced. The plan also pro vides for reception of books by prisoners in United States intern ment camps. Restrictions on send ing V-mail to these prisoners and internees were also announced. Any such letters passing through the Office of Censorship will be re- turned to the senders, OWI ex - plained.

All maga zines and newspapers “regardless of date of publication” are also prohibited from being sent to camps abroad. For any person wishing to send a book to somevne he knows is in an axis prison or internment camp, this is how the plan works: Since only new books can be sent directly to individuals, the sender gives th® publisher or bookseller the prison« er’s name, address and number. The publisher wraps and addresses the books, forwards it to the Office of Censorship’s New York Station where it is checked for conformity to the regulation and for security reasons. If approved, the book is mailed directly to the prisoner; only one package of 5 pounds every 30 days. ■■ AT USO ■ DATE THURSDAY April FRIDAY April 30 SATURDAY May 1 ALBANY I CORVALLIS 113-118 East Third St. Fifth and Madison Sts.
