Silo!! Section 30 fa!! out for shotsf' The last word had scarcely rattled off the ear drums of those hardy souls who hold down the aft end of the passageway when every door did a 90 degree turn and each doorway framed two faces. Faces-each radiat- ing a pearly grin that would have the old cat of Cheshire fame tagging the local pharmacist for an Ipana special. Yet something of the skeptic lurked in those smiles. Inexperienced as they were in the ways of the Navy, still the respective owners of those faces felt that somebody was giving out the malarkeyf Shots were something to be associated with Sweeney's.

We have been tolerant but are partial to long underwear and disturbing ties like those incorrigi- bles who write instead of print and who attempt humorous answers to serious questions.
