she told us that she loved 10 watch
chic European women and to imi-
tate them. so that she could use
the gestures and manners in later
roles.
That was two years ago, how
ever. and this is the first oppor-
tunity she has had TO use that
material. OF: course, one reason
she loves these roles is that il
always affords her ample chance
to wear gorgeous clothes.

CARRY KNIVES

Every Marine in the attack
on Maxim Island, as well as in
the Solomons, was armed with
a knife. Every one was an
expert marksman in throwing
the knife, an accomplishment
acquired by weeks and months
of practice.
The Marines had been eau
toned that it would be safest,
especially in jungle fighting,
to advance on the enemy in a
crouching stance. This would
make each man a much less
conspicuous target than il he
moved forward in a standing
position.
The crouching stance, too,
enables the Marine to fire his
Tommy gun with the weapon
braced against his body. This
helps. to control the guns re-
coil, which is of great impor-
lance in the thick of battle.
