Woody Herman Plug, by Woody

H K O Building New York May 1, 1946 Dear Editor: Since you're the man everybody looks to for keeping your College in the spot­ light, I'm writing you about an idea that can be the biggest thing that ever hap­ pened to your Alma Mater.

Your College can have my entire Band, flown right out to the Campus in a 58- passenger PCA Capitoliner, to play free-of-charge for an end-of-the-semester dance or a big party for the whole Col­ lege, if any one of the fellows or girls turns out to be the winner of our Win A Band Contest. Besides, the winner will get a thousand dollars in cash plus a self-charging port­ able radio. The more students you can get to enter the Win A Band Contest, the bet­ ter the chances are that the grand-prize winner will be in your College.

Now's the time to get started. There's just one way to get details, and that's to get as many students as possible to tune in the "Woody Herman Show," Fri­ day nights over your local American Broadcasting Company station. Here's hoping that someone from your College will be the grand-prize winner. Sincerely fFhite 'T Shirts Woody Herman

Americans had to have camphor in ever-increasing quantity for the manufacture of photographic film, celluloid, plastics, perfumes, medi­ cines, lacquers and disinfectants. But they were forced to pay whatever price the Japanese chose to ask. And even at 1919's exorbitant top figvire of $3.75 a pomid, they were never sure of a full supply. Men of Du Pont undertook to make this cotmtry independent of such an unsatisfactory source.

Everyone at the mission was suffering from malnutrition, so the Americans did as much as they could to alleviate the sufferings of the poor.

Everyone at the mission waited with bated breath, trying to discover an an­ swer to what they knew needed no an­ swer. At this time, Sgt.

The heavyweights fought it out in the semi­ finals for a berth in the finals and a crack at the Bengal championship. Left. John Trove (left), winner of the heavyweight title in last year's Bengal Bouts, moves in on Harp Dougherty, a champion in his own right. Harp. 175-pound titlist last year, thrived on the dining-hall food, added weight, stepped up to the heavyweight ranks this year. The Trave-Dougherty fight was close, but 6-foot- 7 Trove left the ring with the decision.

At right, Gus Cifelli (left), holder of several Marine divisional titles, blocks a right by Jack Fallon, who took time out from spring grid practice to enter the Bengals. Cifelli car­ ried a bruising 250 pounds into the ring but lost a split decision to Fallon.

Below, Dougherty and Trave again. This time Harp ducks under a left and is oil set to pound his own left into Trove's midriif. Trove and Fallon met in the finals last night for the heavyweight championship.
