1932

Among the figures now observable at the United Nations center at Hunter College, the Bronx, is one described in newspapers as "a tall, dark, good looking man in his early thirties who speaks French and German, and until recently was in the 120 th Infantry serving as prisoner-of-war interrogator." This gentleman is the acting chief librarian for the United Nations, and his name is Albert C. Gerould, and he and his wife have an apartment in Mamaroneck. The catch: Al is a librarian without a library, because, owing to the recent establishment of the post in temporary quarters in the Bronx, he has neither the room nor the books. But when the League of Nations votes itself out of existence on April 9, Al hopes the U.N. will inherit their excellent and well-catalogued collection of 200,000 volumes. Meantime Al has no difficulty keeping track of the U.N. library, the total holdings being somewhere in the neighborhood of forty volumes. Most useful items: four copies of the 1946 World Almanac.

Besides being able to boast of a classmate with the U.N. organization, 1932 is also distinguished in having a candidate for Congress. This is Sam Allen, of 14 Mott St., Arlington, who has broken with his Republican background and traditions, and is seeking the Democratic nomination from the Fifth Congressional District of Massachusetts. Rally round, you Bay State boys and give Sam your support. Sam was discharged from the Navy in November 1945, and discovered to his chagrin that the present incumbent from that district had voted against Lend-Lease, against the Trade' Agreement Program, and against UNRRA. That, said Nomination-seeker Allen, was enough for him. I should think so, myself, and I hope tradition-breaking Sam Allen comes up with the Democratic nomination.

Mustered out 14 March, 1946, from the Ft. Dix Separation Center was Ist Lt. Harold Drake, who by this date is no doubt deep in the manufacturing problems of H. R. Drake and Son, paper boxes, Newark, N. Y. Red was good enough to drop in on us, looking very fit and happy, anxious to get back to wife and son, to start his two months of terminal leave, and to begin building up again from where he left off when he enlisted.
