SHOP Here it ia—next toft he last one of these rags you’ll get this ye$it We found so much copy tu<pj> ed away in the dtalf this month that it became a sprious prt>l> lem to decide what |b use. Taking an abrupt about-face in policy, we present this mohth two serious articles, “Swing At rives,” by. Max Perkins, who pounds a typewriter for The Bat and moans on a sax. for the Ag- gieland Orchestra, and “Accent OFF Youth,” by *l|ac” McKen na, who comes to tie magazine for the first time. We think you’ll like them, as well as several other featured For instance, therms “Big Pet \ pie," by Robert Vigus, who was Battalion iafft editor la couple of years|ago and who lr l' now attending Nj T£ S. T. C. Aral we have “1 in 1^000,000," by Walter j Blume, whp signed Rla contribution 44 juat. anothef i gineer.” It could easily be adapt ed for use by the “L ki t- o program, but' it’s pretty (good stuff.,we thought. Believe it or not—Ray T *ead- well has found a movie he ikes. Paul Ketelsen, who is mi king us feel wonderful by taking over a lot of the drudgery on this iheaLcontributes “It Can’t Hap- bdn Here,” which is said to be based partly on fact. George Fucrmann, who cruses a minor revolution every time he takes up his p?n, gives you “Good Night, Sweetheart,’! and he DOES NOT cuss the po-ed )ine this time. We mentioned s coupls graphs back the article “A OFF Youth.” We print hopes that some of the parents of guys who are having difficulties will read it. After aH, straight stuff.
