Jewish Youth's LISTENING POST By DANNY RASKIN The League of Detroit Jewish Youth's need for a paid execu- tive secretary is becoming more evident daily. Without one, the League may suffer disorganiza- tion. Before leaving for service, Ru- ben Gold, as president, toiled endlessly and without him the business almost invariably was left unfinished. When he de- parted, there was no one to take over. Then Diana Rosenblatt, as vice president, took control of the situation. It was mainly through her efforts that the League continued its good work. When she left Detroit to take a summer job, there was difficulty again. Only through the com- bined efforts of a very few per- sons, was the unfinished material completed. • • • IN THE ARMY QUOTES . . . "Don't let anybody kid you about those hula hula beauties. Give me the American gals." Pvt. Harold H. Sitron . . . "I've got so many needles in my arms, I actually look like a container for a sewing circle." Pvt. Joe Hoot- ner . . . "When I read about all those strikes in the old home town, I had to laugh. Here I am, getting up before the rooster, carrying thousands of tons on my back, walking millions of miles, getting dressed and mak- ing my bed in two seconds, shooting a gun which kicks my shoulder, and they're beefing be- cause they need an extra dollar to eat what they want, sleep in comfort, go to all the high-spots, wear different colored clothes and sleep all day Sunday. I've been laughing so long, that my lower molar is sueing my upper for non-compatibility."— Aerial Engineer Bob Shan. • • • HERE 'N THERE . . . A. Z.
