OF THE WEHRMACHT, Although Still Unofficial, was the cue
for a bunch of youngsters to carry over their celebrating
far into the evening on Times Square. They brought along
their musical instruments, sat on cars and set a solid
number bouncing down the WHITE WAY. 2 sailors caught the
mood, and to the delight of bobby soxers who beat time
with their hands, danced a modern, victory version of
