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.

.. 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.
Doubtfuls Banned
Books containing charts, nauti
cal tables, or waterways informa

ganda or geography or “any sub

ti*ic nature, including patents, in-
ventions and discoveries,” are
banned by the new rules. 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.
