Southwestern Jewish Press July 24, 1953 Page 5
With the summer season of entertainment and sports events in full swing, the San Diego U.S.O. Advisory Council again urges individuals and organizations sponsoring these activities to “share the fun with young servicemen based in this area.”
“Teen-age boys in uniform particularly are most anxious to receive invitations or tickets to picnics, dances, little theatre shows, concerts or sports events,” according to Irving Friedman, chairman of the U.S.O. Ticket Procurement Committee. And remember that wherever your sons or relatives in uniforms may be stationed, the U.S.O. and community leaders are doing the same for them,” he pointed out.
Tickets and invitations may be distributed to men and women in uniform by contacting the U.S.O. Advisory Council, 521 B. Street, San Diego.
