That was the news this week
from 70th Division public relations
offices, where the latest issue of
the 70th’s own picture magazine
is near completion. It will appear
pay-day. (Ed. note—a very logical
day, indeed!)
An entire page of pin-up art,
depicting the Trailblazer’s own con­
ception of what its readers like for
dream-girls, will be part of the new-
book, heralded as chuckful of new
ideas and features.
There will be scores of pictures
of the Trailblazers themselves, in
photostories and just “miscellan­
eous" shots. There will be a page
of original cartoons. There'll l*e
another special “Timmons’
ture with its own cartoons.
