Big CITY BOYS
They Envy clicks" Who Get
Small-Town Paper.

It's the big city boys, not the
small-town hicks, who are envious at
the Chicago naval reserve midship-
man school, writes ,Midshipman D. j.
Childers. Here his explanation:
"The big city boys may razz those
of us who are from little hick towns
but they envy the enjoyment We re-
ceive when we read of our neighbors
and buddies in the service in that
good old home town paper.
Both Joe Novak and I consider
ourselves as being in an excellent
branch of the service here at Mid
shipments School, and any student
who has joined the naval reserve
under the W. program, should feel
mighty proud of himself. The food
and living quarters are of the best
here and we are trained by capable
officers
Though a lot of studying is re-
quired for each subject we have, it is
all interesting material. For a touch
of the sea, we go out yachting OF
rowing on Lake Michigan, occasion
ally, where they attempt to work a
little of the greenness out of us.
twelve of us live together in the
room I'm In, three of whom are Phi
Beta Kappa's. They come from al
over the United States, each bringing
their own peculiar accent with them
There's an I'm from Joisey' man, a
Californian (who must represent the
chamber of commerce, the way he
talks, and several drawing South
erners, which makes it quite a picnic
to listen to a discussion among them
OF course, I manage to throw my
share of advertising the Playground
of a Nation in the conversation, ano
I have the descriptions of the hunt
ing and fishing in The Miner to back
me up. They find it hard to imagine q
place like Ely, but before we leave
here they are going to have a good
idea.
"The people of Chicago treat us
very well. There are always plenty OF
invitations weekends, for those al
liberty, to parties, dances, and din
ners. Our officers see to it that we
act the part of the perfect gentle
man, or else. We are under con-
slant observation by them to deter.
mine our aptitudes, which, If con.
sidered poor, will toss us out in M
time"

he will be at this address for three

fellows chosen to enroll in the Mid

promoted to corporal technician, fifth

months will be practically that of a

me there was something wrong with
the army, he would have quite an
argument on his hands. Thanks to you

DRIED EGGS PRICE RAISE
OK'D BY OPA.

A new program by which the Agri-
cultural Marketing Administration can
buy dried eggs produced in the North
west at slightly increased price has
been approved by the OPA. The new
action permits the ANA to buy dried
eggs up to December at prices in
creasing at the rate of II cents a
pound per week over the price frozen
for the base period between Sept. %
and Oct 2.
This exemption has been ordered,
OPA said, because of the growing i'm
portance of dried eggs in the war pro-
gram and the aim of ANA to increase
the production of dried eggs.

BIG GIRL
That's Alexis Smith, who was
NOT kissed by Enrol Flynn

4 YoT being kissed by Enrol Flynn wouldn't
IN seem to be much of distinction. Mil
- lions of girls in America could qualify.
But with Margaret Alexis Fitzsimmons Smith
it's different - she wasn't kissed by Enrol
Flynn because she asked not to be!
1t all happened when she played in Dive
Bomber" her first big part. According to the
script she was well-educated and widely
Travelled young sophisticate - but in one scene
she was supposed to jump up from table,
rush forward joyously and buss MIR. Fynn's
astonished mouth.
That won't do at al" she told the director
"It's not in character" And she argued so
convincingly that the scene was cut.
Decisions like that come easy to Miss Smith.
AS a schoolgirl in Los Angeles she had hanker-
ing to get into opera (most Los Angeles school,
girls want to get into the movies, but Alexis
never gave that thought: she was 5-feet-lO
in her high heels). So she got chorus jobs in
Hollywood Bowl presentations of Carmen"
and Prince Igor" But after she had rehearsed
for a total of six weeks and received the hugesum
of 5000, she made decision: good-by opera
She tried to forget the whole business by
plunging into high school dramatics. Vic Or
satti, ace Hollywood agent saw her act decid-
ed she could use screen test.
'I'm too TALL" she said
Mr.. Orsatti told her to try anyway. So she
took the test at Warmers. They said she was
swell - photogenic face, excellent smile, ex-
pressive eyes - but just too tall. Sorry.
So Alexis went back to high school, and tried
to forget movies. But Mr. Orsatti didn't forget
Three months later he called again - sug-
gested movie test - at Warner Brothers,
They don't want me over there" said
Alexis. I'm too tall. Remember"
But she took the test anyhow. and stood
just as straight and as tall as she could - and
Warmers decided that tall or short she was Just
too gorgeous to pass up. And the next thing
Alexis knew, she was vetoing that Enrol Flynn
kiss, and getting fat parts in "The Smiling
Ghots' and ''The Constant Nymph"
