Camp White Members of
the 1392nd Forestry Engineer
Company still are chuckling
over the recent adventures of
Pvt. B. Z. (Buz) Reynolds.
Reynolds went to Medford
on pass to meet his wife when
she arrived for a visit.
The couple missed connec
tions at the bus station, and
both registered at the same
hotel, Mrs. B. Z. first, and,
shortly later, the forester.
Next morning the reunion
was finally accomplished
when they met in the hotel
lobby. They had slept only a
few rooms apart.
Civilian enrollment in land
grant colleges and universities
comprising the large state
schools totaled 239,430 in
1943, compared to 254,608 In
1942 and 272,394 in 1941.

I hey say a cow gives milk.
Don't believe a word of it. You
could starve to death waiting
for a cow to give milk. If you're
to have milk at all, some clever
fellow (or machine) must get
on the right side of a cow and
extract it.
Even after somebody has
milked the cow, you haven't
got the milk. It's still off to
somewhere-and-gone in the
back country where the cow
lives. The cow, happy with her
cud, cares not at all whether
the milk gets to your doorstep.
But somehow milk for you
and the children does get to
your doorstep. It gets there
fresh. It gets there pure. From
cow to customer it goes through
a long and involved process
but it gets there.
It's not belittling the cow
i true friend of mankind to
five credit where credit is due.
he big, intricate end of the
job is done by your milkman
and the milk distribution in- ,
dustry behind him.
This end of the job requires
men and trucks and gasoline
and rubber and machinery and
most essentially milk. All
are hard to get. -Milk is one
thing needed in equal degree
on the war front and on the
home front. Yet you can't get
more milk by showing a prior
ity to a cow.
The milk distribution indus
try, nevertheless, has managed
to supply you constantly and
in surprising quantity. In th
clutch, it has very literally
delivered. With brains and en
terprise it has replaced short
ages. When a chap faces the
meanest pitcher in the league
and that s Hitler to slam one
out of the park and win the
game, why, we give him a cheer
do we not! We litt the roof
off the grandstand. That's the
kind of cheer we think youi
milkman deserves.

Early July
By J. Hugh Pruett
Astronomer, General Extension
Division, Univ. of Oreg.
Surely the planets have gone
a-hiding, for in the skies "of
early July only one of these
rated as visible to the unaided
eye is now at all conspicuous.
This is Jupiter, king of the gods,
still a royal figure in the early
evening western sky. His bright
ness still exceeds that of any
star-like object in the heavens.
The once flaming god of bat
tle, the blood-stained Mars, also
appears In the west but, because
of his greatly increased distance,
is only a ghost of his arrogant
self of last winter. Mars and Ju
piter will be less than one de
gree apart the evening of July
4, and through field glasses
should present an interesting
study In contrasting colors.
Mercury and Venus are hope
lessly lost in the solar rays,
while Saturn is still too near the
sun for good observation. But
the evening sky gives us a
splendid big moon and many
bright stars. Let us start our
study of the stars in the south
and as soon as it is dark.
Low in the southern sky An
tares, heart of the Scorpion, is
a red, throbbing star. Antares
is very distant and has over 400
times the diameter of our sun.
Somewhat higher white Altair
is easily located, while still
higher Arcturus is an orange
flame at the lower end of a kite
like figure.
In the west Regulus, part of
the Lion, is in a huddle with
Mars and Jupiter. High in the
northwest the familiar Big Dip
per is sliding down the heavens.
Cassiopeia, that striking
group of five stars making a
rather awkward W, is found
rather low in the northeast. Very
high in the northeast we find
Deneb at the top of the Northern
Cross. Still higher, nearly due
east, Vega shines as the most
brilliant star in the eastern half
of the sky. Much lower than
either Deneb or Vega and a little
south of east, bright Altair
gleams.
On tire first clear, moonless
night watch for the Milky Way,
THE OLD JUDGE SAYS...
- -
"The men overseas don't mince any words
about the way they want to find this
country when they come marching home...
do they, Judge?"
"They certainly don't. Herb... and they
shouldn t. They're doing a masterful job
fighting over there to protect our rights and
they have good license to expect us to pro
tect theirs back here at home. One thing
they're mighty clear on is their ttand on
prohibition."
" Their position on that subject was stated
very emphatically in a poll taken recently

that glory of summer nights, ex
tending from north to south high
across the eastern sky.
Barber's
Observations
One of the most interesting
letters received from men in
service came from an officer sta
tioned in Virginia, rather than
from one In the south seas or
India or other places where one
would think interesting topics
were more plentiful.
His principal difficulty seems
to be a social one. He says in
part, "Down here in 'Ole Vir
ginny' anyone who is anyone at
all is related to General Robert
E. Lee. If not, then it's taken
for granted you can't be any
thing but poor white trash.
"Now the only member of my
father's family who was at all
prominent in the Civil War was
U. S. Grant. He was, at one time,
received in Richmond; received
with formality but not with that
old southern hospitality which
comes from the heart. So there
it is. I'm either a damyankee or
I'm a nobody. Caution says to
say nothing of Great Uncle Ulys
ses and just be 'pore white trash.'
Now you're no Dorothy Dix, but
what do you think? Shall I re
main anonymous and content
myself with my lowly lot? It is
indeed a problem! Oh, well, Un
cle Sam may solve It by sending
me somewhere else.
"Fort Monroe Is a wonderful
spot; very interesting and his
toric. The old fort is one of those
old rigs with a moat, draw
bridges, etc., Just like something
out of an old history book.

front of our quarters the famous

among American service men In England by
the British Institute of Public Opinion.
When hundreds of men were asked point
olank how they would vote on prohibition,
15 of them stated, in unmistakable terms,
.hat they would vote aiaimt it. There't no
doubt about it. Herb... the men overseas
ion't want any action taken on that subject
while they're away."
"And they're 100 right, JurVe, because
I know how 1 felt when I came home after
the last war only to learn that we had
been over there fighting for so impractical a
thing aa Prohibition."

took place and in one of the
casemates President Jeff XJavls
was an involuntary guest for sev
eral months. Also at one time Ed
gar Allen Poe served here as a
private of artillery."
A letter on a less cheerful
note was one from a lad in for
eign service. He says there are
so many men in his company
whose wives have divorced them
since they left home they are
talking of forming a club. They
work at making a joke of their
trouble. And make a Joke of it
they must if they are to take
this added upset in their lives
and stay sane. One chap who left
home two years ago didn't stay
quite sane when notified an at
lotment was being made to his
newly born daughter.
On the spur of the moment, I
can't think of any punishment
adequately mean to deal out to
such wives. But give me time.
After that is thought up, we
might then go into what should
be done to men who weren't
strong enough to get Into the
war but find they are strong
enough to break into the home
of a man in service. I feel sick
all over when I hear of such in
stances.

Second Lt. Harry M. Beasley,
the husband of Barbara Beasley,

participated in a course designed
to bridge the gap between train

in an active theater of war. At
one of the air service command
stations known as control depots,
2nd Lt. Beasley was carefully
processed by classification ex
perts who make certain that he
was well fitted for the job as
signed to him.
His next station will be one
from which America's fighting
planes take off to smash the
Nazi war machine.
