PBH TO STAGE CAMP SHOWS

At the request of the Army and Navy, the Defense Service Committee has obtained over 100 entertainers from its own files of entertainment volunteers and from the University Employment Office to perform at the camps and at Y.M.C.A.'s.

Putting on their own programs and filling in between reels of movies, the volunteers will be rated by an official working between the Morale Offices of the Corps Area and Phillips Brooks House. The best entertainers will be organized into a travelling show and sent to Fort Devens, Camp Edwards, and the Harbor Defense Forts.

Headed by J. Eldon Sawhill '43, the entertainment section of the Defense Service Committee has also obtained the cooperation of the Hasty Pudding Club, the Harvard Dramatic Club, Pi Eta Club, and the Harvard Glee Club in putting on shows at the camps.

Hasty Pudding is planning a show for the week of March 23 and the Glee Club has scheduled a combined conecert with Radcliffe on April 19 at Camp Edwards and April 20 at Fort Devens.

The Dramatic Club has begun work on a comedy especially designed for the camps. Using a single set, which will be transported to the various camps in Army trucks, the play will feature a small cast and a portable stage. Pi Eta is also planning a show for camp presentation.

Up until last week, all the camps in this area were on the "alert" and did not permit shows to be put on inside the camp. However, this rule was abandoned last week, permitting the entertainment committee to proceed with its plans of keeping the spirits and the morale of the men in the armed forces high
