' TICK" MALARKEY New standard beds with box springs have been installed in the lower dormitory of Building 207, replacing the 24 folding metal cots, acquired in an earlier day. The hard beds are gradual ly being disposed of in favor of more modern and comfortable accomodations for sleeping. Act ing Domiciliary Officer Ken Black and Capt. Hugh Martin of Company 1 had their hands full in making the switch. As a re sult the regular Friday inspec tion was dispensed with. George Mitchell is now em ployed as a member clerk in the administration office. Mitchell has been a member of Camp White upon' several occassions and returned to the station about six weeks ago. When he was here before he was employed as a stencilist on the staff of Domi news and at the same time helped out around Special Serv ices. "Mitch" is one of the young er veterans. J. F. O'Brien, is a contact supervisor from San Francisco, spent part of last week at Camp White. After inspecting the of fice of Veldon J. Diment, con tact representative here, he spent some time getting acquainted with the domiciliary. This was O'Brien's third trip to Medford. As he covers 10 states, he sees many VA installations and he spoke highly of the continued improvement at Camp White. A capacity bus load went to Prospect to root for the Camp White baseball club Sunday. However, the rooting didn't do much good as the "Whiters" came home on the short end of a 15 to 11 score, their first set back of the season in league play. Many of those who stayed at home went out to watch girl oft ball teams play on the Camp White diamond. Butte Falls was the winner against Camp White team. "Vitamin" Marry Knox, morn ing messenger at the admissions office, is gaining .other distinc tions in addition to his vitamin love and his blackberry picking activities in the fall of the year. Postmaster Arthur Scarseth de clares that Harry can make the finest vegetable salads served anywhere, and when Art's cook is absent he turns "Vitamin" lose in his kitchen to do the job. Re sults are "out of this world." For many years Knox was em ployed by the Portland postof fice. He was retired several years ago on a medical disabil ity and is one of the "old hands" at Camp White. Jim O'Connor is packing up and making preparations to leave after July 1. He will visit with his two sons in California and plans to spend a great deal of his time with one of them who now has shore duty with the Navy at San Diego. O'Connor has been at Camp White since 1950. It is worth an admission price to hear Jim and his words of advice to 8 balls players in the pool room. Another brother team here is Ed Calhoun and his brother Carl. We had thought that the brothers Walker Fred and George, had the sole distinction but the Cal houns have now come along. Carl Calhoun arrived in May, Ed Calhoun works as an assistant librarian to Dorthea Glass, chief librarian. Charlie Smith, an- ARTHRITIS RHEUMATISM ARE AWFUL1 STOP SUFFERING T0DAY1 INOW NOW Much of the ftabbin agonic of sciatica, neuritis and neuralgia can be QUICKLY RELIEVED by AR-PAN-EX.

WAINSCOTT'S PHARMACY Main at Riverside other member, is also employed and is a veteran in the library, having been there for several years. Bob Wilhemn has returned to the station. He had a lot of sur gery performed while a patient at Barnes VA hospital ' and is now beginning to feel pretty good. Bob entered Barnes from Shady Cove where he had pur chased a home after a discharge two years ago from Camp White. He has sold his place and will make his home here for a while at least. When he was here be fore he was employed as a mem ber in the arts and crafts department. Gene Lower and his camera are keeping busy. Since Logan Hughes left here Lower does most of the "picture taking" around Camp White. In addition to this hobby he is hospital chairman for the local World War I Barracks and make daily infirmary calls. Gene tells that a recent letter from Logan Hughes who is now in the Walla Walla, Wash., VA hospital states that he is a bed patient. Lower is a great hand to publicize Camp White and will send out issues by the dozen of Dominew as well as clippings from The Medford Tribune that tell of domiciliary activities. Telecasts of major league baseball which come in every Saturday morning on two sets, one ' in the theater and in the Green Room, are very well at tended. These games are pretty nearly as popular as the fights each Friday evening. Painting of the nurses', man agers, and officer quarters has been completed. It is a pure white and a big improvement. Painters are now moving to the chapel and library and they will be similarly decorated as well as the other frame buildings which house civil service em-, ployees. It breaks up the monotony of the brick color which predominates. ' Vt Mail Tribune Want Ads Dead line for Sunday Classified 1 at noon Saturday.
