Design and construc- tion of assault cargo vessels were prime factors in consideration of this stratagem and much of success in war can be di- rectly attributed to these ships. Expressly conceived to function in the last phase of land-sea attack upon the N ipponese homeland, the USS Sheliak grew from blueprints into a C-2 hull cap- able of nineteen knots flank speed and ex- tending 451 feet from stem to stern. Paced by turbines which generated a force of nearly 7000 horsepower, the She- Ziale voyaged close to 40,000 miles in pre- cise fulfillment. of Fleet orders ranging anywhere from the Far East and Okinawa to California and home. h Realizing the importance of surprise in forward area attacks, it is a tribute to the AKA to reveal that over and above incle- ment weather and rough seas this amphib- ious unit zig-zagged beyond enemy de- fenses often enough to create confusion and skillfully enough to accelerate the conquest and unconditional surrender of Japan. . 2 . But the conclusion of World War II does in no way render the AKA as obso- lete. Rather does it now become apparent that these same ships which once spear- headed the island invasions across the Pacific can today be utilized commercially and to equal advantage in promulgating peacetime- trade between the nations of the world. Stripped of its lighting power and amphibious character, the assault cargo can readily become straight cargo and in so doing facilitate the ever-increas- ing demands rising from the war toward internationalism. ' The USS Sheliak AKA-62 received its commission into the Fifth Fleet in the forenoon of December first, nineteen forty-four at the Brooklyn Navy Yard in Brooklyn, New York. The sponsor Cpic- tured above with Commander Lowreyl was Mrs. Nellie Blanch Regan a school- teacher in Dunmore, Pennsylvania, and the mother of a Navy torpedoman serv- ing aboard a destroyer somewhere in the Pacific. DERIVATION OF HSHELIAIC' By way of origin it would be well to set forth a few pertinent facts concerning the AKA-62 Enters the Fleet A STAR IS BORN meaning of the christening. ttSheliak'l is not an unusual name and many crew members have long since harbored doubts as to the correct origin. An astronomer would describe a con- stellation as a group of stars circum- scribed by an imaginary figure. A few such groups are mentioned by Homer and Hesiodg but Eudoxtus of Cnidus, about 366 B.C., was the first Greek who de- scribed with approxima?Wf1pleteness the constellated heavens, and his work, versified by Aratus, was the chief source of modern star-lore. Most, however, of the 45 constellations thus transmitted to our .3. acquaintance had originated long previ- ously in the valley of the Euphrates, and symbolized the earliest mythological con- ceptions of Sumerians peoples. Ptolemy listed 48 constellations fthere are 85 to datel and in 1603 the scheme was round- ed off from materials furnished by South- ern navigators. According to Bayer's Uranometria, Sheliak is a part of the as- terism of Hydrus ranking fifth in bright- ness and forming part of the northern constellations. If you want to pick it out some night just run your eyes around the upper rim of the constellation near Scor- pio, knock twice and ask for Joe. Page 1 .....

Twenty-four years later he walked out of the U. S. Naval Academy with a Bachelor of Science degree under one arm and a commission as ensign under the other. From there on in his career was strictly duty afloat. During the last twenty years Comdr. Lowrey has spread his service across the decks of eight ships and distin- guished himself notably in varied capaci- ties. Three years after Annapolis the skipper married and is now the father of two beautiful young daughters. Silver- haired and trim the old man chalked up an enviable record in World War II and the staunch admiration of his crew. I S. J. Lowrey Fon A Jos wsu. non: On December 1, 1944 we came aboard the Sheliak. She was a beautiful ship, a credit to her builders.-Upon your coming aboard, the ship became a personality with character, with the character you gave to her. She became a good ship, a friendly ship, a happy ship, an efficient ship, and a ship with grim determination to contribute her full share toward total defeat of the enemy. When the orders came for her to participate in the battle for Okinawa, she was ready and went into battle with courage and confidence. Her mission in the battle for Okinawa successfully completed, she took up the duty of hauling ammunition, and true to character she performed this duty in a commendable manner. Mariners know that the character built into a ship by her first crew stays with her. So long as the Sheliak sails the seas she will be known as a good ship. You may Well be proud of the Sheliak and of her record of loyal and effective war service. As you go back to civilian life I have full faith that as citizens you will build charac- ter into your own community as you have built it into your own ship. I am proud to have served as your Commanding Officer. I wish you success and happiness. May God bless you all. I . S. J. LOWREY .5. The Odyssey of the Roving Star The USS Sheliak AKA-62 received its commission into the Fifth Fleet as an assault transport vessel toward mid- morning on the first day of December in the year Nineteen Hundred and F orty- four at the Brooklyn Navy Yard in New York City in full view of Bedloe Island and the Statue of Liberty. Since that cold and frosty day enough has happened to the good ship and her crew to supply suffi- cient memories for many long wintry days to come, memories which will forever live as vividly and vibrantly as the events which set them into motion. From Newport, Rhode Island, came the crew which was to function in the duties of caring for the ship and assuring her safe voyage wherever fleet assign- ments might direct. From Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, came the amphibious di- vision with landing crafts and trained personnel whose skill was later to mani- fest itself on Easter Sunday upon the coral-studded approaches to Okinawa. Together these forces were to develop themselves into a working team and merit for the ship and it's silver-haired skipper a commendation and a well done ac- knowledgment from Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, commander of all Pacific forces afloat. But that is getting ahead of the story. Actually the successful landings and subsequent conquest upon Okinawa was the climactic pivot about which all the activities aboard the Sheliak were re- volved, but in the long range view of things the truest character of the ship was and will always be discerned from the multiple happenings which rose to accom- pany the many thousands of miles of sail- ing before and after that memorable invasion. The shakedown and initial amphibious maneuvers in Chesepeake Bay off of Cove's Point completed, the Sheliak started down the East Coast toward the Dutch West Indies on the Fourth day of january, inthe year which saw the triple collapse of the Axis partners. Without any apparent escort the ship made its way down and beyond the turbulent currents of Cape Hatteras lying seaward from the Carolinas until early on the morning of the Seventh, the northernmost Islands of the Indies rose suddenly and quietly like sea-borne dromedaries above the Atlantic swells. Distant and-aloof in the pallor of a fading dawn the signal light off the tip of Haiti blinked like a friendly topaz be- fore the deep blue waters of the Carib- bean Sea. Schools of rolling porpoises and fins of searching sharks darted in and out about the water line until the whole sea seemed suddenly alive with some strange and plentiful life. At dusk and toward early twilight a solemn purple would come to sweep across the waters and touch the decks with an aura of stillness. Later a JL.. -... By GEORGE DowN1NG, Cox moon would come to hang like a lantern low in the southern skies, and the spray across the swells would send tiny particles of phosphorus leaping like starlit jewels against the skin of the ship. Unspectacular though it was, the na- tural beauty of the watery highway to the city of Colon on the Panamanian Isthmus made the six-day voyage memorable and the Sheliak secure in the confidence of her crew. Entering the locks from the Atlantic Ocean the Sheliak raised through several levels drawn by miniature locomotives, which scurried up and down ramps on either side, until the ship was successfully drawn from Colon to Balboa near Panama City. For the first time since the depar- ture from Bayonne, New jersey, it was likely that liberty for the one night stand in Balboa would be granted and Lady Luck gave the nod to Section One. Toward late afternoon the chosen third of the ship's crew passed down the gangway and disappeared up the narrow streets of Latin America. N o other liberty outside of the States could ever match this one. Panama City was just as any American would have imagined it, tiny, compact, confused and noisy. Thirty minutes ashore teaches any visitor that there are three things in Panama City: night clubs, the- l'hotel Internacionale and souvenir shops. The latter two can be covered in an hour but the night clubs require a life- time. There you find the natives Cmostly immigrants from San Salvadorj and start your liberal education in the prerequisite courses of rum and 'Coca-Cola. Details may be considerably dimmed because of time and travel but the general memory rampant among Section One is that Pan- ama shelters more than one bombshell Hattie and offers more profused rhumba exponents than A. Murray ever dreamed. Sailing upward from the equator and toward the northwest the Sheliak reached Pearl Harbor fifteen days after Panama. It was a quick trip and the climate of the Hawaiian Islands in january proved to be just what the doctor ordered. With Pearl Harbor still over the horizon the radar picked up the mountain of Mauna Kea and while all handsv lined the rail Diamond Head and Waikiki passed slow- ly into view. The harbor was nearly brim- ming over with any and all types of ship- ping, and the skies over Oahu shook with the thunder of aircraft set aloft from the historic and ill-fated Hickam Field. Over and beyond a half dozen liberties which sent the crew frolicking from the swim- ming pool at Richardson's Landing to the beer canteen in the Royal Hawaiian Hotel at Waikiki, there came the more serious business of amphibious maneuvers start- ing on the third of February. In conjunc- tion with seven other assault transports .6. ' the Sheliak carried out a complete simula- tion of actual assault according to the T-3 plan of Pacific Doctrine and distinguished itself by ''out-Navying-the-Navy. Dur- ing these same maneuvers the newspaper 'fThe Roving Star became a regular fix- ture in the ship's routine and for weeks thereafter the weekly enjoyed a wide circulation. Once maneuvers were finished the Sheliak returned to Pearl Harbor and accepted a combat load of men and sup- plies, Ca contingent of the Tenth Army Signal Corpsj and without further delay set out for the Solomon Islands and Guad- alcanal. , Always on these long trips the ship proved to be a beehive of activity. Decks and bulkheads were steadily chipped, chromated and painted g multiple tech- nical machines were repaired and ad- justed, cables were slushed and newlines rigged, barges underwent general over- haul, and the engine room maintained a worthy efficiency. All this coupled with the steady grind of yeomen, storekeepers, stewards, mess cooks, radiomen and ra- darmen kept everyone on their toes and the days at sea passed quickly. Shortly after the ship had pulled a quarterback sneak through the Gilbert Island guards of Makin and Tarawa and on the twenty third day of February the unforgettable celebration and initiation of Shellback tradion rose up out of the equator. De- nuded scalps, welts and grease covered the crew like some incurable epidemic un- til all the Polywogs, or fledglings of the sea, passed the test and stood shabby and beaten beneath the torrid sun. Enough curls bit the deck that day to furnish a full platoon of Shirley Temples and enough spankings to cure a dozen prodi- gal sons. The two hundred odd Army per- sonnel aboard ship at the time underwent similar treatment and by sundown Nep- tunus Rex had chalked up a mighty score and enlarged his domain by slightly more than five hundred. Forty-eight hours later the ship dropped anchor in the waters surrounding Florida Island and the rain barrels of Guadalcanal and Tu- lagi, while the heat fell down like blank- ets. The Islands may go well with sarongs but when dungarees are selected apparel then the Solomons would not even qual- ify for a short weekend visit. Any excerpt from a typical letter written home at that time would read something like this: Heat terrific, flies innumerable, rain plentiful. Natives are very slight, some tote bones in their noses and ears, but are nevertheless, quite civilized. Although coconuts and mangoes are abundant, the Americanized Solomon Islanders insist on pedalling them for exorbitant prices. Beer without chits flows for a buck-fifty a can, and three warm beers have no equal among the poisons. The Islands are being -4 Q stripped of their personnel, leaving only skeleton crews to bargain with the tough- skinned loin-clothers. However, nature has done well by these Islands, tempering them with a moon more beautiful than any other and a sunrise which glows out of the dawn like a quiet smile from God.'7 Late February and early March substan- tiated the claim that winter is as potent a force in the Solomons as an ice cube in Death Valley. There was no refuge from the heat, no screen fine enough for the flies, no umbrella wide enough for the rain. And then came the third and 'final plans of amphibious maneuvers against the shores of a bejungled and bedraggled Tulagi. It was here that the 'curtain slowly began to rise on the nearness of in- vasion and New York and Bayonne for the first time became part of another and distant world. Toward mid-month the Sheliak started northwest and, within one week's travel dropped anchor in the newly created Pacific hub of Ulithi Atoll amidst nearly one thousand vessels of the battle- seasoned Fifth Fleet. This was the rendezvous area lying midway between Guadalcanal and the ul- timate target of Okinawa. This was where finer details were set securely into place and last minute adjustments ironed out to satisfy the pattern of attack. On the morning of the twenty-seventh the S heliak moved out to sea in a transport division convoy flanked by destroyers on either side and later by the fast carrier task force of Admiral Mitscher. Far out on the rim of the horizon great Allied major ves- sels plowed steadily through the swell- ridden ocean until very early on Easter Sunday the armada quietly stopped and dropped anchor in the East China Sea in full view of the jagged cliffs and irregular slopes of western Okinawa. This was L- day and thereafter for nineteen consecu- tive days under fire the Sheliak main- tained her position and discharged her duties before the almost continual raids of enemy bombers and kamikaze attacks. During the hours of dawn and early twi- light the skies were streaked with anti- aircraft bullets while searing flames from rocket guns and shore batteries kept the heavens warm and red. Over and above all other combined operations undertaken by Allied forces against Japan the attack, invasion and subsequent eighty-two day conquest of Okinawa became the greatest and last Allied thrust into the Pacific. Naval losses were greater during this single operation than in any other and the fact that the-Sheliak and her crew evolved themselves as well as they did be- came a lasting credit to their knowledge, efficiency and stamina for battle. Just be- fore evening chow on the nineteenth day in the East China Sea, the Sheliale weighed anchor and took her tired, battle- seasoned crew back to Ulithi. It was on this return trip that the first breath of tragedy wafted fatally across the decks claiming for its victim a young man who had crashed the beach on L-day in a small landing craft and who had steadfastly manned his battle station throughout the seventy-odd calls to General Quarters. Through some peculiar and pernicious malady, Walter F. Pruski, Seaman First Class succumbed to eternal rest while the ship was still one day's journey from Uli- thi Atoll. It was a misfortune felt keenly by his shipmates and his absence will not be a thing easily forgotten. After the funeral services there was not much laughing aboard the Sheliak. The long, pent-up tension of invasion was be- ginning to ebb and breathing became a little easier as the ship started back to Pearl Harbor with a passenger contingent of survivors who had run amuck of suicide planes off of Keramo Retto. The enemy had been duped by strategy, the landings .7. had been successful, the battle of Okin- awa was well underway, and the Sheliak was going back. It was a good feeling, and you could sense it everywhere. The Hawaiian Islands and Pearl Har- bor had not changed. The beer still came in cans at the Hotel,'the debris still fol- lowed the tide into Waikiki, the natives were still selling pillow slips and pineap- ple juice and 'fAloha still meant anyone of a thousand different things. But for all this, the Islands took on a newer and deeper meaning. This time Oahu was to springboard the Sixty-Two-Dee into the States on the first of a long series of milk-runs between San Francisco and the N .A.D. tucked up the West Loch Chan- nel. Going home was like a shot in the arm and Liberty jumped back into the family of words like a long, lost son. For the majority: Ha book of verse beneath the bough, a jug of wine and thou be- came biography and it continued to be a playboy ritual for the ensuing four months. It was strictly a have one on me routine, and in the bargain the ship caught up on a new paint job and some necessary repairs. But then, as in the case of most things too good, there came the Achilles heel and in this instance monotony and routine filled the dual bill of bow and arrow. Mid-August caught the Sheliak in Pearl Harbor discharging ammunition and bubbling over with heavy time when news came that japan was throwing in the towel. The long awaited surrender had finally become reality, the end was more than in sight, it was now within reach and, when the ship arrived at California later that same month, the first group of qualified men left the ship for the enterprise of civilian life. The war was over. The crew was be- ginning to break up. The Sheliak had won her colors. ' E. B. Sawtelle Eggerton B. Sawtelle, Executive Officer aboard the Sheliak since 3 August, 1945, was born- 1 May, 1904 in Boston, Mass. After some preliminary education at Haverford, Pa., Mr. Saw- telle went on to Drexel and a B.S. in civil engineering. In 1932 he entered the Army reserve as an officer and 9 years later trans- ferred his commission to the Coast Guard. Immediately before the war the Lt. Comdr. served as Navigational engineer aboard ship and in 1944 reported aboard the Sheliak as its first naviga- tor. He lives in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, is married and the father of four children. I i J J. P. White Cfaww- ' Justus P. White will probably be longest remembered as the Sheliaklvexecutive officer since he held that important position for well over eight months. A former student and football star at Alabama University, Commander White is also a graduate of the U. S. Coast Guard Academy at New London, Conn. Before re- porting. aboard ship Commander White served as pilot in the Coast Guard Air Force, and distinguished himself creditably in that capacity. The Commander is married and the father of two children. A more OF THANKS From the raw cold of Brooklyn's December to the bright spring of Okinawa's April is a short time in this span of life but one that most of us will never forget. Our ship had been welded into the precise working outfit required for this combat operation in this very short time-she had found herself completely and proved it. This achievement is the work of no one man or small group of men. The intelligent, whole hearted cooperation of a hard driving crew at Work did the trick. The satisfaction that comes from that innerknowledge of having done an important job well should warm your hearts and carry you courageously through the future -come what may. V The battle tension is now a thing of the past-a memory. f Q- - ., . Changes have taken place and many more will follow. The entire shipls company can be justly proud of the manner in which they have conducted themselves during times often more trying than battle. You have passed the final test for a line military organiza- tion and passed it with flying colors. You went out knowing you did not have to come back. You have always been ready-and willing. You came back and in so doing kept your heads through- out and kept your ship on an even keel. You have upheld the finest ideals of the United States Coast Guard and the Naval Service-a double duty blended into one. God bless you and God speed to you-one and all. May the future hold good health and success-and time to enjoy both. ' E. B. SAWTELLE 4 Executive Officer - Officers Aboo rd Front Row: left to right: D. R. Whittier, St. J. A. Bargas, F. B.

Such missions are accomplished on this vessel by utiliz- ing small. boats, eight LCMs, fifteen LCVPs, and one LCPCLJ. An LCM is a flat-bottomed, all metal constructed boat fifty feet long, powered by two diesel en- gines, having a crew of live men, a cox- swain, a motor machinist mate, and three seamen, and capable of transporting 30 tons of cargo, or 120 men. An LCVP is 36 feet long, Hat-bottomed, of wooden con- struction, it is powered by a single diesel engine, has a crew of four men, and is capable of transporting four tons of cargo, or 36 men. An LCP CLD is a 36-foot cabin cruiser used as a command boat by the Boat Group Commander during amphibi- ous operations, and as the Captain's Gig at other times. l The LH Division is composed of 120 men and approximately seven officers. Its three sections are subdivided into boat crews. The ratings include seamen, cox- swains, motor machinist mates, gunners mates, carpenters mates, electricians 7 L DIVISION SECTION I Front Row: left to right: F. Arrigoni Cox E. W. Brown SIC G.

Its organization is designed to allow the division to operate with full effective- L DIVISION, SECTION 3 ness in the event it is separated from the Ship. r Aboard ship, the division is an integral part of shipboard organization, partici- pating in all drills, standing watches at sea and in port, cleaning and maintaining the ship, and contributing handsomely to all working parties. The Division trans- ports liberty parties, and as a result of the inaccessibility of proper transportation and lack of dock facilities in the various ports, it hauls a major portion of the provisions, supplies and equipment to run the ship. The functions of the division allow the men great freedom of action and the op- portunity to assume responsibility and display initiative. Nowhere is this more apparent than when performing its major task, the transporting of troops and equip- ment from ship to shore during an am- phibious operation. Front Row: left to right: Lt.

The US Division is made up of per- sonnel in many ratings such as cooks, steward mates, storekeepers and special- ists whose duties entail the smooth oper- ation and running of various activities and services designated to their depart- ment. Starting with chow, the most important item, and continuing right on down the list-the little luxuries and necessities The Lady Comes Home found in the ship's service store, pressing and minor alterations at the tailor shop, haircuts by the barber, clean clothes from the laundry, shoe repairs by the cobbler, new clothing from small stores, general supplies of all kinds, from a pencil to spe- cial heavy clothing, from GSK-all are a few of the services rendered by this de- partment. Then, there is the small item of collecting onels pay twice a month, on which days the disbursing officer takes over the limelight. The task of keeping the wardroom and Hofficers country spickand span, in addition to serving three squares a day to the captain and his officers, also falls to the personnel at- tached to this division. Along with all these special jobs, all hands have their military duties to per- form. During General Quarters the mem- bers of SH Division function as gun crews, lookouts, talkers, damage control parties, stretcher bearers, or heave around back in the galley making surenthat the chow is coming up as fast as the ammuni- tion. SECRET WEAPON The One Man fortification pictured in daring outline form can best be described as a secret weapon. Lest radar and the atomic bomb should fail, this aggressive molecule was kept in priority reserve as our answer to the japanese kami-kaze. A hope of the future, this dynamo presents the last word in modern design. -. - ' 'K . Q MA.-. M W :-. ,,A..,-...., ,...

In port, some, of course, are on liberty. The rest are busy getting ready for sea. Underway, quartermasters, the Officer of the Deck's right hand men, record each change in the weather,.correct charts, and clean and repair sextants and binoculars. The radarmen report ships, buoys and aircraft long before they can be seen by the lookouts. Radiomen, with a constant watch on the Fox', schedule, receive coded orders and reports no matter how far we may be at sea. The signal gang, when we are in a task force, spots the flag-hoists from the Commodore and relays his message to the OOD. Thus, the ship can send or receive messages and still maintain ,radio silence. Yeomen wade through piles of official correspondence, distribute and file it, take shorthand and tirelessly bang the type- writer. The mail clerks are probably the most indispensable men on the ship.,Everyone expects a letter Cwhether he has written one or notj. At Guadalcanal we received letters mailed six or seven days before in the states. At Okinawa we went without mail, but made up for it when we rated 72 pouches upon returning to Hawaii. V .

ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT The USS Sheliak is powered by a 6,600 horsepower steam tur- bine. It is of the latest and finest design so far devised and has driven the narrow bow of this ship some 40,000 miles efficiently and without trouble. It is the job of the machinist mates, watertenders, electricians, and firemen to operate and maintain all equipment of the ma- chinery spaces. This they have done throughout the long months in a manner of which they can be justly proud. Besides the propulsion of the ship, there are other functions that keep the 'fBlack Gang busy-furnishing electrical power for motors which drive auxiliary machines, pumps, cargo Winches, ventilation of quarters and holds, and in short, all the many uses to which electrical energy is applied. The 15,000 gallons of water that are expended daily keep many hands busy seeing that adequate amounts are on hand and that the evaporators keep turning it out. Refrigeration is another duty of the engineering force. In the long hot reaches of the Pacific where cold Water, ice, and ice cream move into the must list, refrigeration is a problem and a vital part of continued operation. Each man of the engineering force is proud to have done his share in getting the Sheliakn to the enemy where her guns and her cargo have helped to bring a peace which we hope Will last forever.

Ranging any- where from .45 caliber semi-automatic pistols and M-1 rifles to a five-inch can- non on the stern, the gunnery department maintains and repairs approximately 300 weapons. Under the guidance of two offi- cers and a dozen enlisted personnel this bullet family is steadily ensconced in the Shangri-La of recoil springs, accelerators and triggers. Scarcely a day goes by but one of them is seen stripping, cleaning and assembling some piece of artillery. Over and beyond the afore-mentioned five inch cannon the most intense consid- eration is given to the .50 caliber, 20 mm and 40 mm anti-aircraft guns. Actually the smooth fiuidity of operation evi- denced in these weapons did most to safe- guard the ship during those near-miss circus dips of suicide planes off Okinawa. When broken down to its fundamen- tals, the problems of gunnery are not so easy today as they were when Calamity jane emptied a barrel riding side saddle through the hills. Modern mechanisms are decidedly intricate and the difficulties of a jam or miss-fire are more than Ha pause in the day's occupation? Any qualified nursemaid to a forty H DIVISION ' millimeter gun must combine within him- self the talents of precisionist, mechanic, magician and saint. It's a tough job from any angle and because of this very fact a decided nod of approval should be given to the gunnery department for their part in the smooth continuum of the Sheliakk' performance.

These are the familiar words heard each morning at 0800 over the Sheliak public address system, at which time all the sick, lame and lazy report to sick bay for treatment of their ill. Long before the call, one may find a line of men extending down the passageway waiting to enter the seagoing hospital, manned by a competent staff of surgeon and six hos- pital corpsmen. The treatment received by the individ- ual man ranges anywhere from the com- mon cold to athlete's foot, or anything else which may go wrong with the human anatomy. During the sick call hour the division takes care of about 30 to 50 men, many of whom when told what their ailment is offer the familiar statement, Say, Doc, do you think I can work this up into an M. D.? Usually the answer is negative, and the patient though cured leaves healthy, if discouraged. The common expression used in the service 'fIf you can see it, paint it with tincture of merthiolate, and if you can't see it, give him an aspirin, hardly holds true for the Slzeliak sick bay. Actually an abundance of medical supplies are used each month in the treatment of the men. Over and above the ordinary run of medi- cants the hospital has a necessary amount of surgical instruments qualified for any- thing from the removal of small cysts to abdominal or bone surgery. Further, the department has a fine library of modern medical books containing a sufficiency of knowledge for the care and cure of all cases. The aim of our department, is sim- ple. It is to keep the men well on the Sheliale. A modified version of the Navy medical slogan-To keep as many men on the job as many days as possible, is likewise the purpose in our department.

Americans have a knack for putting an ounce of play into every hourls work re- gardless of the seriousness of that work. Especially' is this quality in evidence aboard the Sheliak and more specifically in the work of sports. Despite the funda- mental difficulties incurred through sea duty and the disattachment from land, the ship personnel, under the guidance of Mr. Mathews, was able to muster enough ball players to put a team live times into action on the iields of Oahu. Over and above the absence of proper uniforms the team incorporated into itself enough spirit and hustle to chalk up three victories from a five-game schedule in an alto- gether too limited season. Juggling the roster of a small squad Csome of whom were abetted by semi- SPORTS OVER SEAS pro experiencej Mr. Mathews developed a team which in their iinal game justified his every effort in beating a varsity Miner fNavyj club by the nip and tuck margin of 7 to 6. It was during this game that the team first began to hit a normal stride of good ball. Kirchner, one of the three regular moundsmen, started the game but quit early when a loss of control per- mitted the Miners three runs in the lirst inning. Joe Silvestri, another regular and southpaw, took up the duty from there and, behind the slugging cooperation of Israel, Rizzuto and Hein, went , on to chalk up a tight but well earned victory. It was likewise during this same iinal tussle that Captain Lowrey hitherto an ardent rooter from the stands came down beside the dugout to pinch-hit for an ab- sentee bat boy and pep-talk the squad to its third win. Beating the scrub and var- sity Miner teams twice while winning one and dropping two to the Seabees, the team' came up with the promise of a snap- py infield including Johnson on iirst, the alternates of Duncan and Brush on sec- ond, Hardyniec at short and Rizzuto Cbrother to Philj on third. Behind the plate crouched with. consistency and a good right arm was Corbett coupled in the play with the all-around hustle of Joe Cialella. 'Pacing the regular nine as utility players and getting into almost every game were Long, Green, Cybulski and Trentacoste. By statistics the .team finished up the season with Israel, Rizzuto and Hein batting well over .400. Members of the Squad in Action Officers LAVONE C. ANDERSON P.O. Box 431 Alice, Texas WALTER G.
