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.
You’re ready jto read the
rest of this sheet, so we’ll stop.
