American women in Glasgow enrolled for canteen and hostess duty under the banner of the American Red Cross. Their guests at the "Club" are mainly troops in transit, convalescent Americans from the Glasgow hospitals, and sailors in port for a few days. Glasgow has been the scene of several excellent ball games this fall, generally between army and navy teams, and the rival camps fraternize after the game around the canteen counter or the piano in the clubrooms
