WPB Chairman Donald M. Mel

The committee found that "busi-

like the homo sapiens kind,
must attend strictly to business
when he appears in public. All
human actors have to conquer
stage fright and SO do the mon
keys. But worse than stage
fright is temperament-and these
musicians have more of that than
a prima donna. Monkeys get
peevish at audiences, perhaps for
not laughing in the right places.
Little wonder, then, that it has
taken months of winter training
to prepare the chimps for their
spring debut. To help keep the
players from wandering out on
the act, the keepers have in
cluded dog whose job it is when
not barking for order, to operate
the musical bells.
This monkeying around with
music, is of serious interest to
anthropologists who use it TO
make studies of the relative de-
grees Of animal intelligence.

news but when monkeys make
musicians out of themselves,
that's something else again.
Just how the chimps show up
the chumps Is demonstrated daily
At the 81. Louis Zoo. famous for
its open-air animal theatre,
where the simian inmates are
monkcying around with music.
And just like the bands that
dish out for the hep-catS, these
musical Chimpanzces, who swing
and sway the monkoy-housc way,
play loud, if not good
over the years. trainers at st.
LOUIS S250O 900 monkey pavilion
have been putting ON everything
from CirCuscs to plays with all
chimpanzcc casts for the enter
tainmcnt Of the public.
This year with the monkey
band keepers have launched
their most ambitious program,
and one that tcstifics 10 the hard
work and expert training that
has been given these little mu-
steal SiniaRs
Although the high intelligence,
initiative ability and natural ap-
titude TO learn tricks are we'll
known qualities Of chimpanzees,
training them 90 perform in uni
son is a task calling for the
patience of Job.
The weakness Of the monkey
mind is lack Of concentration.
For this reason rehearsals, in
stead of lasting an hour or
longer, never run more than six
minutes because after that time
the chimp's mind begins to
wander.
AS soon as the embryo musi-
clans get restless, the trainers
cleverly switch To a different act
which in turn doesn't last over
another six minutes. Then they
swing back to the tuneful rou-
tine again. In this way, the
monkeys gradually learn all the
things they are expected to do.
In order TO get the band to
play as a unit, the trainers had
to take each little chimp aside
and teach him his own part
When the musicians" were fl
nally brought together as
group, the keepers had to school
them to leave each others instru-
ments alone.
Showing them how to pound
the drum, toot the flute. and rap
the piano at private rehearsals
was one thing but to get them
to do it before a large audience
was another.

Free Weddings for
Fighting Men

-HERE'S one place in Amer
lea where you can get mar
y ried free in a gaily decorated
church with lifting music and a
corsage and boutonnicre thrown
in. The only requirement for en-
joying this on-the-cuff wedding
is that you be member of
Uncle Sans Army.
These marriages for members
of the armed forces are being
given away down in San Antonio,
Texas. by the Brooks Memorial
Methodist Church TO help Army
men who could not spend the
amount of money needed for
full-scale church wedding.
The church asks nothing of the
soldiers except that they notify
the minister in time so that
members of the congregation can
decorate the chapel, engage the
organist, and in general prepare
things properly for the middle
aisling fighting man.
This is our way of making the
soldiers feel at home" the
Reverend Ross r. Welch, who in
stituted these free weddings, ex-
planned. 80 many of the men
stationed here are from States
far away and they want church
weddings, but a soldiers pay
won't allow il. So we are doing
it for them as a small gesture
Of appreciation TO these gallant
men"
The first couple to take ad-
vantage of the churCh's offer
was Private Elden Hartman and
his fiancee Mary Turner, both
from Youngstown, Ohio, whose
free nuptials were run off in
grand style
Now that news Of the churCh's
generous offer is spreading
around Texas. Reverend Wclch
has been literally dclugcd with
requests for similar church
weddings, and il might seem that
the good minister would be justi-
fed in calling a halt because
of the great amount of extra
activity all these free mar
riages involve in a parish that
is unusually active in its own
affairs.
But the church means 10 keep
its word and. If the couples are
willing. the Reverend Welch will
conduct double and even triple
ceremonies. The Texas minister
hopes that the idea will catch on
in other sections of the country.

men who are serving Uncle Sam
at salaries far below their ci-

That the Brooks Memorial
Church should be the first to in
stitute this free-marriage plan
for soldiers is not surprising be-
cause. ever since its inception,
this house OF worship has been
closely associated with Army life
in the State of Texas.

NAACP Urges Negro
Women To Join WAAC'S

NewYo rk, N. Y. = Pointing to
the slackening of the policy of
segregation at the WAAC Train
ing Center at Fort Des Moines,
Iowa, as a heartening advance to-
ward the fuller Indignation of Ne

ecutive Secretary of the NAACP,
urged this week in a statement to
the press that more qualified Ne
gro womn enroll in the Women5'

The Corps was established in
order to make available to the
governemnt the skills, knowledge
and training of the American wo-
men of the Nation. The require
ments briefly, are that single or
married women citizens between
81 and 45 years of age, without
dependents may join. They must
possess excellent character, the
ability to pass an intelligence test
and physical fitness. All women
upon enrolling become auxiliariesr
the equivalent of an army pri'
vate. After four weeks of basic
training auxiliaries may file ap.
plications for officer candidate
training.
It was observed by Mr.. White
during a western trip which in
cluded an inspection tour of th'
Corps, that the life of WAA(
is busy but interesting one. AT

Negroes because they are lazy and shftes" She knew
this she added because she had them in the moves
step to eliminate of such attitudes was
made during the by White and Wendell Willkie,
in conference with picture producers in Hollywood.
All the producers, according to White, pegded to
portray Negroes in the future not merely comics but
normal human beings.
Naturally the version of the Negro not going
