supplying motor-repair parts for every
vehicle in the 4th Corps area. During last
years maneuvers, she worked 20 hours

5000 vehicles. Whenever a truck breaks
down, the cry goes out, Call Miss Dunn!
Ann has charge of hundreds of soldier
mechanics whom she teaches how to repair

to work for the Army, she was greeted by

the same prime mover on which we mount

Miss Dunn showed proclivity for mechan-

Bob Hope Plays
Golf Match Here

Bob Hope. who will compete in
the war relief golf match Monday
afternoon at Plum Hollow, vies
with Bing Crosby for the distinc-
ton of being Hollywood's No. ]
links enthusiast.
Hope has been paired with
Walter Hagen and they will OPP
pose Mayor Jeffries and Jimmy
Damaret, Plum Hollow's Ryder
Cupper. Although the match
wasn't arranged until yesterday, it
promises to attract good-sized
crowd.
The match, which will be at
tended by other members of the
Hollywood Victory Caravan, is in
cluded on the National PGA's
lengthy schedule, which. il is
hoped, will raise 100000 for vari-
Gus relief agencies this summer.

Besides being an enthusiastic
golfer. Hope also plays a pretty
good game, according to Demaret.
The radio and movie. star will
shoot in the seventies or low
eighties-if the fans give him a
chance.
Demaret and Byron Nelson
played with Hope and Crosby in a
number of exhibitions in the south
west during the winter. One OF
them drew a crowd of close TO
10000.
Everybody. according to Dem
aret. wanted closeups of Hope and
Crosby and crowded so close 10
them they scarcely had room "a
swing their clubs.
