This sub-subseries contains six scrapbooks of newspaper clippings from the Honolulu Star-Bulletin and Honolulu Advertiser regarding the activities of the United Service Organizations (USO) in Hawaii. Four of the scrapbooks are part of a set labeled “General I” through “General IV” and are companions to the United Service Organizations Photographs sub-subseries. In addition to clippings, these scrapbooks also contain programs, bulletins listing entertainment opportunities for enlisted men, issues of the USO Bulletin, and other related ephemera. A fifth scrapbook bears the title “USO Civilian Defense Workers Committee” and the majority is made up of columns written by Clarence L. Hodge. The sixth and final scrapbook in the sub-subseries is titled “U.S.O. News Items, February 17, 1942-[no end date given], Clarence Lewis Hodge.” Rather than compiling Hodge’s columns (as the Civilian Defense Workers scrapbook did), this scrapbook contains general clippings about the activities of the U.S.O. and appears to have been compiled by Hodge. Hodge was Director of the Public Relations Division of the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce and an active editor of publications regarding civilian defense during the war. These publications can be found in the Hawaii War Records Depository and elsewhere in Hamilton Library. Titles include War Workers in Hawaii, Pearl Harbor to Tokyo, Navy Life in the Pacific, and Army Life in Hawaii. His specific connection with the USO is undocumented (his name does not appear in the organization’s annual reports from 1942, 1943, 1944 or 1945), but a photograph in the HWRD (#0698) indicates that his wife was a secretary for the USO during the war. An additional USO scrapbook can be found on reel 26 of the microfilmed portion of the HWRD.
