Gregory left Ajonday morning for Davisville, R. I., after his eighty day leave during which time he underwent surgery for wounds incurred while in combat in the Southwest ' Pacific. Hie folks at McCullom Lake j really outdid themselves, as usual j in paying homage to one of their ^heroes. To say that Lt. Jack Greglory was both pleased and surprised at all this ovation is to put it mildly. Tlie Sawdos and Kaminskis planned this party well. It was difficult for your correspondent to get five minutes of undivided time with Lt. Gregory for an interview. So all we could do was to sit in the sidelines and watch the proceedings. • The pleased expression on the face of Lt. Gregory's charming Missus evidenced the fact that she too Enjoyed the party. The bar installed in th Sawdo garage was the most popular spot on their huge estate. Not to be outdone by their husbands' ability to put the crowds in a merry mood the two charming hostesses, Lill Sawdo and Rose Kaminskj, served a most delicious buffet, supper. As usual Peter Kaminski and the inimitable "Blue Gills" furnished the dance music. To show his appreciation for their splendid entertanment Lt. Gregory presented the "Blue Gills" with a native drum, which he brought home from Hollandia in the Pacific. We can now look forward t9 a super "Blue Gill" band in the future. Among the many guests present were Mr. and Mrs. George Harker, who came out for the weekend to celebrate the birthday of their little granddaughter, Jeanette, and being just two doors away from the Sawdos they invited all the kiddies who were present at the Gregory party to their home to enjoy the huge birthday cake and a generous serving of ice cream. Being a kid at heart ourselves we just know how that treat was appreciated by the kids. • ' 1 1 ! > ' We know that we will leave ourselves open for a lot of criticism for omitting a lot of names of the guests present during t)ie afternoon and evening so, we beg your indulgence for after all your Yardstick is only human and, like yourself, was also cavitating. Among the guests present we recall seeing were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Edmonds, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Jensen, Mr. and Mrs. Otto Pyritz, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Thomsen, Mr. and Mrs. Berthlein, Mrs. Neidemair, Mr. and Mrs. Barney Graff, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Lock, Mr. and Mrs. George Harker, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Coles, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Deskis, Otter Ebert, Mrs. Marie O'Connor, Mr. and Mrs. Tryg Rojnstad, Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Kreiling, George Baumbeck, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Horn, MT. and Mrs. Ed. Doran, Sgt. and Mrs. Robt. Doran, S. 1-C, Robert Sales, Mr. and Mrs.' Ken Ebey and the Strucks. The party was a huge success and Lt.

Good luck to you, sailor, and may God speed your early zee turn to us. News Of Our Servicemen E. M» 2-C., Raymond Deskis is now stationed in Hollandia in New Guinea. Sgt.
