When Sinatra Sends, Sophisticates Swoon
Nomination for the man most necessary to morale; Frank (Ooooo)
Sinatra.
In keeping women contented to produce more planes and parts while their men are away, The Voice has rendered his country inestimable service. By keeping wives and sweethearts true to the men in uniform through their chaste adherence to the commandments of the Sinatra cult, The Crooner has set the fighting men's minds at ease and thus has aided materially the force of the attack.
Crooner College Suggested
However, there has not been enough national recognition of Sinatra. The president of the United States has never once relinquished his time on the radio for a Sinatra broadcast. Congress has not once mentioned establishing another alphabet bureau, such as the SSS (Sinatra Sending School) which places hopeful 4-F's in a training school where they learn the romantic arts of the Great One.
A diploma would be awarded each candidate after he has sufficiently proved his ability by causing an audience of 50 women to sigh with passionate unrestraint. Of this number at least eight must cry out "Oooooo, you're killin' me," followed by the carrying out of at least three victims for treatment with smelling salts and chafed wrists.
The graduates would then sing daily in war plants to keep production at top speed.
Sinatra Snubbed
The government hasn't even asked Frankie to go on a bond-selling tour or suggested in front of breathless reporters that his 1942 income tax returns were several thousand short.
In fact, the government just ignores Sinatra all the way 'round. He has not even been asked to guest it at one of the First Lady's receptions.
But the greatest voice in radio goes on his modest way. Quiet. Unassuming. Noticeed by none save a few million "swoning" women. A lovely flower by a crannied wall. A rose by any other name. Such is the tragedy of life.
Obviously, the present administration is making a grave mistake in not cultivating The Crooner. A subtle hint about a fourth term in the midst of "All or Nothing At All" would have the feminine population flocking to the polls for a straight ticket.
DICK ABBE---
(continued from page one) than traveling around the world. The other Abbes have picked their careers. John, who is living with his mother in California and going to high school, is set on becoming a forester.
"He'll make it, too," Dick said. "He's a good kid. My sister wants to be a newspaper correspondent like my father. Right now she's on my dad's radio program. He has a 15-minute news broadcast every morning in Portland. After he gives the news my sister asks him questions about it, and they have a debate."
Dick Knows Four Languages
Dick doesn't believe the Abbes will write another book. They wrote the first one because their father didn't have time to write a story about the uniqueness of a newspaper correspondent taking his children with him on assignments. Their mother questioned them about what they remembered about Europe and wrote down their answers.
Mrs. Abbe, Dick remarked, was a

The chair's in his room for rigor mortis to set in: If it isn't one thing it's another, and now the Phi Phis are shaking their heads over brother, Reed Whetstone. Reed walks slowly, he talks slowly, and when he plays bridge signs of life are barely discernible.

Interesting course—this entomology: Suzy Altic, pledge, was poking around the back yard of the Theta house with 10 strange ASTP boys in tow —when she came into the focus of several sisters around an upstairs window. Included in the group was the Theta social chairman in cahoots with whom Suzy had earlier been trying to arrange herself a date. "Well," yelled the upstairs gallery in chorus to the frush surrounded by the 10 soldiers, "have you found what you're looking for?" Suzy insists she was on a bug hunt.

To fragile freshmen with fearful families: The biggest, brawniest, and most desirable yet most dangerous wolf on the hill this year is one Bill Chestnut. (Information courtesy Bill Chestnut). Bill, a Phi Si, took over the awesome position upon the resignation of Bob Bellamy—now employing his technique elsewhere in a marine uniform. Chestnut has been mobbed by so many women that he has been forced to
Ziegfeld girl. Mr. Abbe met her when he was sent to photograph the Follies girls.
At one time Dick knew four languages. He said he has forgotten most of them, but they are easy to pick up again. Last summer he worked as a machinist's helper in the ship yards of Portland. A lot of Russian boats docked there, and he had the opportunity to review his Russian. He has also worked as a soda jerker and as a sheepherd on a ranch in Colorado.
Returning servicemen will not be the only ones needing vocational training when the war ends, declares Miss Laura Murray, recently retired director of the Industrial Teacher -Training bureau of the University of Texas.
Writing in the current issue of the Texas Personnel Review, published at the University. Miss Murray points out that many workers now profitably employed in war industry may not be able to use their skill in a civilian industry. Such workers will need vocational retraining as much as ex-servicemen.
Workers, Fighters Will Need Training
(Associated Collegiate Press)
Returning servicemen will fall into two general groups, Miss Murray explains. In the first will be men who have had civilian working experience before the war, but who may find their old jobs wiped out in the process of converting peace-time industry to a war basis.
Unfair to private enterprise: Roy Twist and Jack Kapser, Phi Gams, are all but ready to picket a certain hill sorority house. The boys had dates recently with girls, both pledges, whom they have been dating at home for about a year. All evening they had made a miserable failure of trying to hold hands and dance cheek to cheek. At the door the girls refused to be kissed. Much arguing followed during the course of which it developed that the girls had been told, "no wooing on your first dates here." Being conscientious pledges, the girls were sticking to the rules.
In the second will be men who went into the armed forces directly from high school or college, and who lack both training and experience for industrial employment.

"No post-war plan should over-look the need for expanded vocational training and adult education." Miss Murray asserts.

Looks like a good year: Although it is still early in the season, Potter lake has one body to its credit. The laking was sponsored by the thoughtful and Christian-spirited inmates of Carruth hall, all of whom got the urge to be useful the very night Dean Corder couldn't fill a page to his parents and remarked that he wished someone would throw him in the lake so he'd have something to write home about.

The fall of the enemy supply base of Finschafen to Australian ground troops after a ten-day siege cinched the Allied grip on New Guinea's Huon peninsula adjoining New Britain.
