Letters To
Mr.. Edward 1 Robinson, Ed.
NORTHWEST ENTERPRISE


NORTHWEST ENTERPRISE
306 18th Ave. S.
Seattle, Washington
My dear Robinson:
I am attaching herewith copy
of letter l am this morning send
ing to Pat Hughes who was one
of many writing in behalf of Joe
Smith who seems to have the quail
ifications necessary to enter the
flying service of the Army. I sin
cerely hope he Is able to qualify,
for he seems a high-type of ambi-
tious young manhood, and would, I
am sure. justify the confidence of
his many. friends who have written
me about him.
Please accept my congratula-
tons on your newspaper which
read with a great deal of interest.
Very sincerely yours,
Warren G. Magnuson
Mr.. Pat Hughes
Office of County Prosecutor
King County
Seattle, Washington
My dear Pat:
I noticed the attached clipping
in yesterdays POST and thought
of your interest in Joe Smith, who
is anxious to get in the colored
squadron of the Army Air Corps.
Colonel Johnson advised me this
morning that young Smith should
make application at once to the
Commanding General, Ninth Corps
Area, The Preside, San Francisco,
California. He pointed out, how
ever, that the training mentioned
in this clipping is for mechanical
or ground service only. Then will
follow the regular cadet training at
Tueskegee about which I told you
before.
There will be twenty-six men
enlisted at March Field, River
side, California for this ground
service training. They will be cho-
sen from the Ninth Corps area,
just as in the attached clipping it
is stated the group will be chosen
from the Middle Atlantic area.
I would advise Smith to make
application by airmail to the Ninth
Corps Area If he wishes to get this
training. OF course, it is entirely
possible that he has already had
all this ground work, but Colonel
Johnson said if he had this prior
training, he would then be in a
better position to get one of the
coveted cadetships at Tuskegee.
Also, his age is nearly at the max
imum for this training, and he
must qualify before he reaches
the age limit or all hope will be
at an end. I know how keenly-in-
terested he is, and have pointed
out to the Army people here that
he would make an excellent army
pilot.
Application forms are going out
to Smith today from the War
Department so that he may have
an opportunity to apply for a ca
detship, which program will pro-
badly be under way in mid-sum-
mer. My impression is that he does
not have the college work which is
ordinarily necessary; however, I
am advised that if the candidate
can qualify through a mental ex-
animation, the college-credit re-
quirement may be waived.
Very Sincerely Yours,
Warren G. Magnuson, M. C.

In Hollywood

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, June 10 - Joan Leslie is bearing up under it pretty well but she's just beeN through an ordeal to break a lady 5 heart. She's had to stand by and see a studio spend about $l5,000 on a Joan Leslie wardrobe, the same possessing no more glamour than an apron discarded by Ma load after 40 years of heavy duty.
 What it goes to show is that, while alIs not gold that glitters. some things that are drab can set a movie company back a pretty penny
 This wasn't, strictly speaking, Q Joan Leslie worry. All she had to do was wear em. Milo Ander- son. who's more accustomed to silks and satins in his designing trade. was the one who watched the dollars go down the sink of art for Sergeant York

When they needed a new house dress of ging- ham, homepsun. or calico, they could go to the country store.
 Milo Anderson, in 1941, couldn't do the same, he. says, not even back in the York mountain coun- try. The country stores had changed their stocks.

To the lay mind all this agoniz- ing over exact materials and design might seem bit silly, but what struck me as even sillier was an other Anderson job, on Man Pow er," in which he's been dressing Marlene Dietrich.
 There's a storm scene, wit h George Raft and Edward G. Rob- inson, trouble-shooters, climbing power derricks during a Califor- nia rainstorm. The sound stage floor was a mess of mud and the rain from the pipes was as wet as California rain, which is the epitome Of wetness Into this tech- nical masterpiece went Dietrich oozing as much chic and style as her role of B-girl would permit to get herself drenched and mud splattered.
