Britons Use Boston Card Index To Lure Officers
In Boston the British consulate runs a card index to connect Royal Navy officers with local hosts for dinners, dances, and social events. Hosts call to request officers who play bridge or enjoy art, poetry, golf, or music, and the index matches two off duty officers who will attend. The effort, aided by groups like War Relief and Bands for Britain, garners praise from British consul general Hugh Alexander Ford for generous hospitality to sailors.
