A FAVOR THAT MONEY
COULD NOT BUY
Sgt. Julian Hymson, '41C, 26th
T.C.S., Bergstrom AAF, Austi;,
Texas: "No newvs is supposedly
good news, but hearing from you
or gettig a Gamecock is m1y choice
e% ery time. It certainly is swell
to read of all the activities both of
the University and its ahnni who
have spread out all over the globe.
"'Hey, Frank, any mail for me,
today?'
"'Nope, Junie, sorry. Oh yes,
there's a small newspaper for you
camne in today.'
"'Gee, what those few words do
to a fellow after a day's workl
'There are few things we get here
in Army life as welcome as The
Gamecock. It revives such pleas
ait memories a.-d seems to put one
right back in the pleasatit atmos
phecre of campus life that we en
joyedl so much at Carolina. Cer..
tainly is good to read of all the
fellows and how everyone is getting
along.
"Hlope this finds Carolina still do
ing the grand wartime job it al
1'uys has done. I send( very b'est
regards to all who are doing the
alumni in the service a favor that
money could not buy."
LIKE A LETTER
FROM HOME
Midshipman Deward Brittain,
'42J, Bni. 1. See. 5, !!14 1 .yons Hall,
USNR U idshipmen's School. No
tre Dame University, Notre Dame,
Li]d., former editor of TIhe Game
cock, who entered the service a
few weeks ago andC already has
been madle sub-comimander of his
conipany, writes: " . . . I never
knewv until now how~ much the
alumni page meant to a graduate
far reniovedl from the 'old1 stamiping
Rrouind'. TIhiere are three other
Carolina men tip here (Larry Gall,
'39A; Douglas Alvastroth West
moreland, '40A; and Irwin David
Karesh, '41L), and they all devour
the alumni newvs just as eagerly as
I. Keep printing the wvhereabouts
of Carolina men and( women as
much as censorship will allow. As
one Carolina man who probably
won't see the campus again for a
long time, the altimni news is like
Sa letter from home."
ROGER-WILCO-AND HOW!
Lt. Palmer Stewart McClellan,
A. C., '40A, now somiewhuere in Af
rica: "I have just received myv
copy of October 9th Gamecock.
TIhis makes my second copy since
I have been with the Fortresses in
England. To say I appreciate~ them
is a minor way of putting it
so I'll just use the ole Air Force
expression, 'It's Roger-Wilco-and
How.'
"F.ngland is a grand ole place;
really the people treat us line
they can't seem to dIo enough for
us. And trying to tell y'ou how
brave they really are is like try
ing to tell you howt muchl we ap
pieciate The Gamecock."
