After the program all who were .- interested were entertained in the library by a guitar trio, consisting con-sisting of Captain James M. Walker, Arlie Smith and Raymond Sadler. Theso programs will continue to be held and, with the talent that some of the men have, they should continue to get better. Fire Where's the fire? In the stove, we guess. But a grand old time was enjoyed by all when the stove in Number 1 barracks blew up Thanksgiving morning. It seems that when two of the more industrious indus-trious fellows in that barrack? made the fire Thursday morning the smoke decided to go out through the doors of the stove instead in-stead of the chimney, and the result re-sult of the smoke's shyness was disastrous. Fire extinguishers from all parts of the camp were brought forth and emptied on fiothing. Well, maybe there wasn't a fire but that is one way of holding unexpected un-expected fire drills, and of course that gives the boys one or more things to be thankful for thankful thank-ful there wasn't a fire, because a fire could "go to town" on one of these wooden barracks. Thanksgiving dinner at Company Com-pany 2530 was enjoyed Thursday by 175 men. The men were seated at two long tables and enjoyed roast young turkey, snowflake potatoes, po-tatoes, French peas, cranberry sauce, sage dressing, celery hearts, olives, mince pies, coffee, assorted candy and cigarcts. Rumors are that the twelve Utah juniors, now at Camp DG-35, are to be transferred to ninth corps area companies in the very near future. Tough luck, boys, but the bad breaks are sure to come sooner or later, and this is just one of the many bad ones you will have to meet. |
