ALUMNI IN WAR SERVICE J. G. Baker, B.S/36, M.S.M0, first lieutenant, ASF Personnel Replacement Division, Camp Beale, California. j F - J- Bertalan, B.S.'39, lieutenant, U.S.N.R., c/o U.S. Navy, No. 100, F - P O , New York, New York. In letters to Miss Bond and Miss Boyd of the Library School early in January, Lt. Bertalan writes: "I am now at liberty to say that my present station is in London. . . . The ten months I have been here passed almost 'ike so many weeks. . . . Last month an interesting assignment took me through a good deal of France. The tour of duty finally ended in Paris, and a return to London via plane." Lt. Bertalan mentions having visited the magnificent cathedrals of Canterbury, Rouen, Bayeux, and Notre Dame de Paris. "While in Paris I was fortunate in having been able to attend a Performance of 'Le Jongleur de Notre Dame', and it was really impressive because a few hours previously I was inspecting the same cathedral." Lt. Bertalan also reports that his thesis, for the master's degree in Library Science at the University of Illinois, was then practically finished. "What an experience working on that thing—in Urbana, Chicago, Northampton, Massachusetts, Norfolk, Bermuda, and where most of it was completed— in London." He speaks of his sympathy for the French, under the inflationary economic condition which prevails. "Yet the capitol seems gay enough. I saw one of the best staged and acted operas—compared favorably with New York's Met. Put London to shame." George B. Brown, B.S/37, A.M/40, captain, CAC Intelligence Library, 2C714 Pentagon, Washington 25, D.C., announces the birth of a second son, n ^ ^ ^ h * * ii 1044. Caotain Brown, after working for
