This is a copy of Company Attention (Vol. IV, No. 24, September 1939), the newsletter of Civilian Conservation Corps Company 1730, located at Forest Service Camp F-MO-7 near Bunker in Dent County, Missouri.  Laval H. Andre was the Company Commander and Fred M. Gannon was Superintendent of Forestry.

 

This 24-page newsletter, edited by Harry S. Hayman, contains news of camp programs and personnel.  Among those mentioned was former enrollee Loy V. Hanning, who had just made his major-league debut as a pitcher for the St. Louis Browns.  There was also news that 46 enrollees were being discharged at the completion of their term of service, and that war had broken out in Europe.  The last four pages contain advertisements for local businesses in Bunker and Salem.
