Company newsletter/magazine for CalShip Shipyards, Long Beach CA. In 1943, CalShip was one of the country's suppliers for the U.S. Navy. "Woo-Woo" Herbert and Company Bring Outstanding Show to Yard, 1 page, reports the March 27, 1943 show for the yard's employees, headlined by the Stooges, Hugh Herbert and Nan Wynn.

At the time, CalShip was providing locations for Columbia's filming of THE RIGHT GUY (released as GOOD LUCK MR. YATES), for which the Stooges filmed "Niagara Falls" and Nan Wynn performed musical numbers in a shipyard show scene. Ironically, the Stooges and Wynn's scenes were cut from YATES' final edited release. (The "Niagara Falls" footage was used one year later for the 1944 short subject GENTS WITHOUT CENTS.)
