Alexander, Jr., Reporter. Third Provisional Avn. Sqdrn. As this report goes in, the Third Provisional is running a close second to 4912th in the track and field event. The relay teams, which consist- of Hunter, Carter, Noner, Thompson, Wallace, McLean, Henderson and Wilson captured all firsts in the mile and quarter-mil- e relays. Hunter, Wil son and Wallace piacea second and third, respectively, in all dashes. This writer placed second in the broad jump and football distance throw and third In the football punting. Worthy captured the upper berth in the distance throw and the squadron was second in the basketball shooting events. The evening events will find a good basketball team and our veteran Softball team on the field, while Joe Brown reDresents the squadron in the table tennis contests. The squadron is looking - good. The orderly room and its com ponents should be commended for getting furloughs in such a short time. Sergeant Major Webb was one of the first to go, but Palmer has carried on in his absence in good order. Thirty men were to go on furlough this week and nine took them. . Sgt Preston only and L. C.
