On Saturday fast I went to the radio shop and concluded negotiations for my radio, and set it up in my bunk that afternoon, and in testing it, got some swell swing music; something Td been wanting to hear for some time. After a few minutes of that came an announcement. have been listening to Station X. (fade out)....from 445 Race _Coi Road in Shanghai, China. Golly, 1 was flummoxed and very thrilled. Later in the evening I heard Carrol Alcott and was ever so pleased. However, since then I haven't heard him again, (although 1 got the Station Several times) because of the squealing that was jamming him out Are sti playing that game in Shang-'Then a few days afler Thad to move out of my "bunk", in which T was very happy and comfortable, because a Senior Corporal had to have it. "Anyway an order is an order, and I can't grumble, for 1 might be far worse off. So now Tm back in a carrack hut, which is rather crowded fat the moment. In it is a chap with 8 peach of a radio set—8 tubes—and as his {s on most of the time I give mine a rest To-morrow the staff of our little unit are going to the Big Chief's home for a drink", and a sort of housewarming, T think it is. Jolly decent of him to ask us—he's really a deent chap. "In consequence of this won't have my usual Sunday morn-Ing for letter writing, but hope to et mail from Shanghai again soon."
