Army Recreation Program
 Builds Morale By ELIZABETH KETCHAM, Stoff Writer Waterbury Washington Service Bureau

they are slated for & Hollywood career once the Japs are out of the running. Movies, too, are available at nearly all the camps, either in a permanent theater building or a tent seating as many as 22o0.
 The athletic program in the camps Is organized to appeal to all the men. Even after 8 hard days work, many are anxious to parti- cipate in games, boxing bouts, or a track and field meet. Those who are not athletically inclined show great interest in the progress of their company teams engaged in intra- mural contests which the athletic director organizes. In summer, ath- letic events are held in the sports arena; in winter in more than 40 camps there are Field Houses which would be the envy of many colleges.
 For the men more interested in less strenuous activitis after a day of drill, there is probably a camp newspaper on which they can work. Nearly all of the posts have such papers, and their titles usually in- dicate the speciality of the camp or the publishing unit. There is The Salvo of the Coast Artillery, The Tail Wind, Crosswind or Wing Tips for the Air Forces; other posts pub fish The Scorpions Sting. The Fal- ling Bomb, or The Range Finder. Outside continental U. s. are pub lished The Jungle Cat of the Canal Zone, The Centenala Alerta (Alert SentineD or Camp Tortuguero, Puer- to Rico (printed in Spanish and English) and The White Falcon, lished by the American forces in Iceland.
 The soldier is interested in news of his camp and its activities, but he is glad to get away from 1t all on his week -end leaves, or on furlough. The boy from the country may be Sta- toned near a large city. If he spends the week-ends there, the "soldiers ;. Sailors and Marines Club" operated by the U. s. o. in most cities, will give him informa- ton about sikhts to see; they may be able to provide free theater ori concert tickets. At the club he can find entertainment and refreshments and may make friends with someone with whom he can do the town" The U. s. O. headquarters is usually 6 clearing house, too, for invita- tions to soldiers for dinner or par ty given by private citizens who of- fer their hospitality. People all oyer the country, especially in the small Ter towns, are inviting soldiers to parties or simple Sunday dinners where the boys can get away from camp and where they often make fast friends.
 Army life isn't Q bed of roses. Recreation is a comparatively small part of making Americas manhood into an effective fighting force, but 1t is a vital part through which the organized recreation projects of the army and the U. S.. O., and spon- taneous entertainment by hospitable citizens, make an indispensable con- tribution to Army morale and there fore to the Arny's growing strength to defeat the Axis.

BRAIN POOL OF
 AUTO INDUSTRY
 SPEEDS OUTPUT
By ANTHONY G. DE LORENZO Limited Press Staff COrrespondentl

United Press Staff COrrespondent)
 Detroit, June 1l-(UP)-A group of engineers whose skill and ingen- uity was a major factor in develop ment of the automotive industry's mass production techniques have pooled their resouYces.in full-scale drive to out-smart and out-produce the Axis powers.
 One production bottleneck after another has fallen before the col- lective knowledge and ability of the Society of Automotive Engineers War Engineering board, which Is composed of l6 top-flight technical experts, and more than 400 cooper ating engineers and researchers.
 Cutting across corporate lines in what once was regarded as the most competitive industry in the world, the engineers are serving without pay as consultants on war produc- ton ot the Army and Navy and the Automotive Council for War Pro- duction, an organization of nal1u- lecturers.
 6WAVV A 4AAhA 4EVWkGhh
 The Remember WEB group head ed by J. c. Zeder, chairman and chief engineer of Chrysler Corp, meets every two or three weeks. Technical problems are placed before the full board for discussion, after which they are divided among board members. The later name a sub. committee of specialists which ex- plores the problem thoroughly and reports its findings to the full board.
 A problem tossed into the boards s lap recently involved shortages of alloy steels required for military tank parts. The shortages became so acute they threatened to halt pro- duction. The society's engineers, working with the Army Ordnance department, whipped the problem by offering alternate SteelS which had not been used for these parts before.
 New materials, new methods and new ways of utilizing old materials are developed almost daily by these highly trained engineers.
 Same Boss Now
 'Instead of trying to outsmart each other" one engineer said, we are putting our heads together to help the government out-sTnart Ger many and Japan. We're all working for the same boss rowadays-the government"
 Besides Zeder, board members in- clude B. B. Bachman, vice-president and chief engineer, Autocar Co.,; Don Berlin, aircraft consultant, General Motors Corp; l.. R. Buckendale, chief engineer, Timken-D Detroit Axle Co.,; J. M. Crawford, chief engineer, Chevrolet division, c. M.; R. E. Cole, Studebaker Corp; P. F. Kishline, Nash -Kelyinator Corp; R. H.

Washington, D. C., June 11-All work and no play won't make Uncle Sam's boys dull if the Special Ser vices Branch, U. s. Army, can help 1t. Judging from the job they're doe Ing in providing iI1-camp recreation for the soldiers in our new Army, there need be no worry on that score. Through special Services formerly the morale branch-campS are provided with every variety of recreation the soldiers need. Ath- letics, movies, shows with amateur talent or the brightest Broadway stars, art exhibitions, boogte woogie, Beethoven, books--naine 1t and you can have 1t.
 Hub of the camp recreation pro- gram is the Service Club. Each camp has at least one, and each club has from one to three hostesses and a librarian, who operate the clubs activities. Dances are held often with girls imported from towns surrounding the camps, some- times brought in chartered buses, and always accompanied by chap erons. Each Service Club has a dance floor, a game room, a cafe- terra, and reading room and li- brary. Today there are more than 5000 camp libraries, ip addition to a number of travelling book collec- tions. When men are on rnaneuvers their books accompany them in mobile library units. When they pitch camp for short time, H. brary tent is set up where the men can relax, read up on woods lore, which they may need for the next days activities, or forget. Army life with a detective mystery. Libraries accompany every troop transport and books provide additional ad- venture If the hazardous trip is not exciting enough. Army libraries of various kinds have more than 6 million books, some provided by the War Department, many donated by individuals and civilian agencies.
 Camp Shows Popular
 For those men not interested in reading --of whom. there are coIn- paratively few, as 1t Is one of the most popular pastimes in the Army as well as for the sake of variety, there are frequent entertainments. Camp Shows, Inc.," headed by actor producer Eddie Bowling, Is a non-profit agency formed to CO., operate with the United Service Or ganizations. It has established a talent pool" in Hollywood to sup- ply top-flight film and radio stars for the camp programs. One of their first projects was their Flying Showboat" in which such stars as Laurel and Hardy, MitN Mayfair. Roy Bolger, Jane Pickens and sev- eral others, flew to American bases in the Caribbean to entertain the service men. First-line radio stars are giving their regular broadcasts from Army camps and the enthus- iastic response the soldiers give is proof of their appreciation. Camp Shows tries and usually succeeds in getting an entertainment of some vraiety to each camp at least every two weeks.
 "Crazy Night" in which the boys themselves participate, is another popular feature of the camp re. creational program. No camp is so short on talent that they can't pre-. sent an amateur show that is hil- ariously funny, at least to the act- ors--their friends. If the particip- ants are too "corny" they may be hooted down, but the ones who get a laugh are easy to convince that

He was tell ing his weary listeners how one night he and his band were making an overnight jump in specially chartered bus, when it caught fire on Q lonely road.

 Sounds Like Him: Benny Rubin told this about Barrymore over at the Riviera last night. Benny said the last time they met was in a Hollywood joynt, and Rubin was imbibing a soft drink.
 "Hullo, Johnl" called out Rubin. Wont you join me in drink of ginger-ale?"
 "WhatG" boomed Barrymore, land get poisoned?"

 Cop! One of the drama critics rented a home in the country and told some actors he was stuck for name for it.
 How does Not So Lodge sound to you?" he said.
 Why not call it." suggested an actor he banned, "'The Dew Droppe Dead'?"
 The Good Old Days: Nat Good win never quarreled with a critic or made remarks about those who rapped him. The actor merely pasted the photos of two critics on two cuspidors, which he said, ''were in constant use."

 The Morning Mail: Brooklyn Dear Walter: For the sake of the record let me correct you. The word is 'schlemiel and the mean ing of 1t is not dope, but one who is unsuccessful. One who cannot adapt himself. One who does the wrong thing at the wrong time, etc. The best example of 6 'schlemiel' is the Dodgers catcher in the World Series, who dropped the ball, thereby losing the series to the Yankees.
