In November 2011, I purchased a scrapbook at an antiques mall in
Carson, California. The scrapbook is believed to have belonged to Laurine
Wyatt. I am transcribing the articles and documents contained in the scrapbook
with the hope that it may be of value to genealogists who may be researching
the individuals named.
“Swing and Sway
Theme of Dance for AFFCC by U. S. O.
It was swing and sway for
more than 400 couples last night at the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium at the first
dance given for the newly arrived men at the Army Air Force Classification
Center on Thompson Lane.
At left are shown Miss
Vivian Edwards and Cadet Chester Langworthy typical of the many youthful
couples that decorated the dance floor. At right is a general scene showing the
crowd of dancers.
