Army Camp News In Brief

in a well-run Army mess, the en-
phasis is on good, well-cooked
food. From the bottom of our
hearts We say, Keep up the good
work, Sergeant"
Sergeant Rupert c. Harrington
has been promoted to Staff Ser
geant. Congratulations.
We wonder how many men
know OF the recreational facilities
at their disposal in Florence.
Shamefully, we must confess that
we didn't until last week. 1t seems
that on or about the first of April
the Florence Chamber of Com
merce invited religious and civic
organizations of Florence TO assist
in providing social facilities FOR
the service men stationed here. A
committee of seven persons under
the chairmanship of Mr.. J. Hous-
ton Allen, was appointed and the
use of the Florence Woman 8
Club building secured. The build
ing is open from seven to ten
every evening during the week
and from twelve to five each Sun
day. There are games, a radio,
and plenty of reading material,
and one night each week, usually
Thursday, the men are given
free dance. Also service men are
admitted TO the regular Saturday
evening dance for half price. We
wish to thank the citizens of
Florence for their hospitality.
Technician Paul w. Williams
was promoted TO the grade of
sergeant May l. Good work, Ser
geant.
The Post will soon have a base
ball field. The Pinal County en-
gineer very kindly donated the
use of a road grader. and a place
has been leveled off. The finish
ing touches are now being ap-
piled. BY this time next week we
hope to see some interesting ball
games.
Corporals Jerry ID. Ryan and
Gordon L. De La Vars were pro

Grade.
Captain Ulysses G. Mosier, IN
addition to his other duties, has
been detailed as Personnel Adju-
tant.
Captain G.. A. Douglas has been
transferred to Dallas. Texas
where he will be Professor OF
Military Science and Tactics for
the RO.T.C. units OF the public
schools.
Privates First Glass Robert Mar
tinez and Fred l.. Strauss were
promoted May / 10 Corporals.
How do the new stripes feel, gen
tlemen?
Baseball is in the air. Each OF
the organizations stationed here
has organized a soft ball team and
is getting ready TO take on every
one in sight BY the time our new
baseball diamond is ready, we
should see some interesting com
petition.
We understand Private Nielsen

tinguisher. IL seems he started

charmer. and now 1t has assumed
the proportions of a forest fire.

Billie Burke
Returns to
The Stage
Nv CHARLES GENTRY

the theater Billie Burke has come
to town 10 do in person one OF
those roles with which she has
long been automatically associated
that OF the wacky wife in "Tho
Vinegar Tree" which opens at tho
Lafayette Thursday evening.
although we did this on the
West Coast last year for n short
try-out, this il the first time I've
been on the stage in seven years
and I'm really n little fright
ened," she told us today.
"Tll even confess TO being
little homesick. It's been 81
years since I played In Detroit
and when got 10 thinking
about a theater and strange
audiences, I almost wished | was
back in my little home In West
wood with my cat and dog.
my daughter. her husband
and my two darling grandchil-
dren live close nv and somehow
feel just a little lost, but i
think that after the play opens
I'll get over H."
Miss Burke has an airy, absent
minded sort Of charm. the sweet
est smile and that infectious laugh
which you have heard for so long
via the sound track.
THE ROAD BACK
when you have been working
In films for a long period you
forget Just what the stage de-
mands. Everything looks roster
than a Western sunset until you
actually get into rehearsal of
even a play with which you are
familiar.
Despite the fact that i had
done this role In The Vinegar
Tree before, I didn't recall just
how taxing IL was to try and
sustain performance for a
whole evening or matinee. In
the movies, II you get tired you
figure that scene will soon be
over, then you can go over and
sit down.
TAKING HER TIME
1--WE even spent afternoons
knitting for our neighbor allies
between takes. Now I'm sud-
denly remembering that I've got
to go on, no matter what hap
pens. I'm so used to doing scenes
over II 1 miss a line or II the
director doesn't quite like IL the
first, fifth or fifty-seventh time
that now I'm scared rs though
were making my footlight
debut"
But no matter what misgivings
conscientious Miss Burke may
have about herself, we have none
at all. She is a finished actress
a real trouper and a woman who
is quite on her toes at all times,
although she has made a career
out of being vague.
A SERIOUS TURN
When she returns to pictures in
August she is anxious TO attempt
more serious Characterization like
the mother in the new Bette Davis
film, This Above ALL" which is
due 10 show here shortly.
She appreciates the fact that
comedy roles have given her her
greatest following. but for a
change she wants to discard laugh
ter for deeper roles.

War Has No Second
Prize, Speaker Says
State Insurance Commissions,

Raid Captains Named.

"There is no second prize in war.

commissioner and fire marshal, high
lighted the address he gave to Ely all
raid wardens and auxiliary police anC
fremen here Friday night.
Combating the effects of bombs and
gases will be given special attention
at the regional fire school to be held
in Hibbing in May, both johnson and
his assistant, Leonard C. Lund, who is
in charge of the schools for the state
pointed out.
1t is probable that local auxiliary
firemen will attend this school to re-
ceive first-hand instructions.
johnson said that auxiliary firemen
would be issued raincoats. felt jackets
boots, helmets, and insignia, and that
$500 sets had been ordered for the
state. They will be given certificates
showing completion of fire training
courses and also identification cards.
Meanwhile precinct air raid wardens

Emphasizing the potential danger tx

that Duluth and the Twin Cities were

During this time" he said, Il in
terviewed every soldier, sailor, and
officer that I could, and the response
1 received was gratifying indeed. To
the last one of them, the boys are in
this about war heart and soul and
are only extremely anxious to get into
action. Their morale is the best, and
with such a spirit, there can be no
question about the outcome
AS to the part our government is
playing in caring for our boys, by pro-
viding food, clothing, quarters, and
care, can truthfully say they are
doing fine job. They are issued good
looking and high quality uniforms and
in addition all other clothing they
need, depending on the locality they
are sent to. They are furnished plenty
of good, nourishing food In some
cases heard complaints that it was
not properly cooked and prepared, but
in such cases it was soon corrected.

other time I had breakfast with them,
which consisted of my favorite pan

would say the food is rather heavy.

Just how to feed the boys because to
me they all looked the picture Of
health. I would say the reason for
this is the regularity with which every
thing is done in the army, which is
something We cannot accomplish in
civilian life.
In the way OF entertainment for
our boys, this depends largely upon
the location of a given camp and what
facilities are offered in nearby towns

Alarmed Motorist Sends in
"False" Alarm.

Because he forgot to release his
cars emergency brake, an auto driver
sent the fire department out at a.
m. Friday on what it thought was a
false alarm.
Driving to work at the mines. the
man suddenly smelled smoke. He
stopped his car, jumped out, and ex-
citedly turned in an alarm, envision-
ing his now irreplacable auto going up
in flames.
He rushed back to the car and
found-his brake band still smoking.
That evening he reported the matter
to the police department, saying he
was already late TO work so did not
stay at the scene after pulling the
lever.
In the meantime the city electricians
department checked the entire alarm
system in that section of the city to
see if it were functioning properly.
