last Saturday, He was walking thru
an abandoned hut when the deck gave IIP
way and he fell striking his head & gPi:
giving him a laceration on his left djijjf
eyebrow, .edPidid-;
Speaking of lacerations Percy E.
SIMMONS, CE1 sustained one when he
says he ran into a window frame,There i;
seem to be a rash of injuries over PdPij

while cutting shavings for a fire can
be avoided by being CAREFUL eh,English?

receptacles in Bering Building are hun

hands are requested to fatten them up
by placing their trash, candy-wrappers,
pop cans, etc., into their jaws. Feed
them and you'll be doing yourself a
good turn as well as your shipmates.
There is no restriction on who may B:
