PuuI Horrison's Column

HOLLYWOOD, JUL 18 - A lot
of famous people usually are involy-
ed in working out movie story and
putting it on the screen, and Eagle
Squadron" is no exception. But
there was one fellow who had more
TO do with it than the producer or
the writer's, the director or the
stars. He was a studio office boy
and his name was Eugene Quinn
by Tobin.
Tobin was redheaded, freckled
youngster who did chores at Metro
and had a braSh habit OF calling
big-shots by their first names. He
found Hollywood tame. So he took
a few flying lessons, and when the
Germans started into France he
decided to get in on the excite
ment.
The office boy got into the
French air corps by claiming he
had 2000 hours of flying But be-
fore they could find a ship for
him the Germans had taken over
Red and another American, Shorty

INTO THE WAR
When they asked for jobs in
the RAF, Red declared he had 5000
hours of experience but had mis-
laid his log book. The British need
ed fighter pilots but said he'd have
to prove it, SO they wheeled out

IF you stay up high enough you
can't go wrong Red wrote his
father, Quimby Tobin, back in Hol-
lywood. Il stayed up so long they
began to worry that maybe I'd
stolen their plane"
So the next day they put him in

wrote II didn't dare ask what they
were for. But took the Splitter up
high again, and they let me join

|mperia|s Break
Biu German Attack
On AIamein Front
BY LEON KAY

ChlRO, July 10. NOf)-NGen. SlT
Claude Auchinleck's eighth army
has broken a big German attack in
the central sector of the Alamein
front and has made further gains
at the coastal end of the line, it
was announc today.
After a night thrust against the
Imperial forces on the RuWeisat
ridge in the central sector had fail
ed, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel
threw a strong force of truck borne
infantry into an attack yesterday.
Indian troops repelled them, how
ever, with the enemy suffering heavy
losses, the communique said.
IMPERIALS ATTACK
At the northern end of the line,
the Imperial troops attacked the
Germans and Italians and made
some progress southwark where
there is a salient in the enemy line.
The Axis troops counterattacked
twice, and the Imperials were forced
to give some ground but they held
part of the gains.
British mobile task columns were
active in the southern sector, toward
the Qattara depression, where the
Germans had been forced to make
Slight withdrawal westward.
British and South African planes
concentrated on the central sector
and light bombers caused eXplo-
sions among trucks and tanks
which they attacked.
FIRE IN TOBRUK
Allied heavy bombers (Which in
cluded United States Army Air
Corps planes scored hits on big
steamship and a tanker in the har-
bor of Tobruk, Axis base on the
Libya coast, and started big fire
in the storage area. The fire still
was spreading when the planes left.
Over Malta, British fighter planes
shot down four German Messer-
schmitt- -l09 fighters without loss.
British losses yesterday in all
operations were seven planes. The
pilots of two were saved.
NEXT ONSLAUGHT
Rommel had hoped now to get his
drive toward Alexandria and the
Nile restarted by strong attacks in
the north and central sectors, but
because he was beaten back each
time it was believed here that he
might now try an attack against
the southern end of the British
line toward the Qattara depression.
This was the eighth day since
the British limited offensive which
pushed the Germans back five miles
from Ell Alamein, on the coast, and
it was said that the situation re-
manned not unfavorable to the I'M
perial army.

ChopIoins No Longer Required
7oB Jacks of All Trades
Importance Of Moral
Welfare of Soldiers
Now Recognized
BY JESSIE FAINT EVANS.

Gone are the days when Army
chaplains were expected to be jacks
Of all trades in addition to their
service as spiritual advisers. Army
regulations have changed this situ-
alton and have lifted from their
shoulders their former response
bilit!es es mess officers, theater
officers, athletic director, post
masters or any other similar jobs.
The Army is recognizing the i'm
portance of moral and spiritual
warfare to selectee's training, and
is clearly defining how the chap
lains may best combine the military
and spiritual aspects of the soldiers
life in the country's service.
To meet denominational needs
of the situation, chaplains are being
drawn from most of the major re-
ligious sects at the rate Of one
chaplain for approximately 1900
soldiers.
Regulations Arc Strict.
Regulations are as strict for Army
chaplains as for any other ofhcer.
The physical examination Is the
same. Chaplains must be regularly
ordained, duly accredited by. and
in good standing with, some re-
ligious denomination or organlza-
ton that holds an apportionment OF
chaplain appointments.
Contrary to practice during the
First World War, all religious &C
tivities for service men are being
placed in the hands OF the chap
lains. In the First World War, re-
ligious or semi-religious and social
organizations such as the Y. M. G.
A.. Salvation Army and knights OF
Columbus, maintained clergymen
and carried on religious as well as
social functions, building huts IN
the camps in which services were
held. This is not being done TO-DAY.
The chaplain serves as member
of the staff of the commanding
officer, is his consultant in all mat
ter pertaining to public religious
observances and instructions IN the
command, and in all matters in
volving morale, morality and char
acter building" according to Army
regulations.
The chaplain is a consultant on
recreational programs. Sickness and
death in a soldiers family call for
the assistance of the chaplain In
arranging leave of absence, trans
portation and financial assistance.
Contacts With Families.
The chaplain acts as a contact
man between the soldier and his
family In cases of sickness. Accu-
rate and regular information is
supplied by the chaplain, and the
emergencies involved are met by
his resourcefulness. He encourages
correspondence between enlisted men
and their families In sickness and
health. In cases Of grave illness or
serious accidents involving soldiers,
the chaplain is given prompt notice.
The chaplain also gives advice to
enlisted men under arrest when this
is deemed advisable by their COM
manding officers. The chaplain
keeps all condolences inviolate.
In line with the emphasis on
spiritual things in the new Army,
chapels have been built In prac-

all are pat Of the Army's equipment
for these :hapels. Services for those
Of differelt faiths are held at pre-
determined hours.
Focsi Points Of Influence.
Like tie church or synagogue In
the soldiers home environment, the
Army chapels are becoming focal
points Of spiritual influence. Trailer
chapels m wheels also carry the
word of Cod. through the chaplains,
to men Il the field.
The clief of chaplains Is Brig
Gen. William r. Arnold, a Catholic
soldier-prest and a friend of the en-
listed man. Every Sunday he con-
ducts mess at Fort Myer, Va, and
services somewhere every day. de-
spite the leavy administrative duties
of his Office.
Gen. lrnold is the first of his
faith to bs designated chief of chap
lains. HIS first tour of duty in the
office ex)ired December %, l94l.
His secold began January 8.
Gen. Afnold was born In Wooster.
Ohio. Jule 10, 1881. He attended
