Auto
Auto Dealers Find
Mechanics Returning
From War Plants
BY sILER FREEMAN

Auto dealers are hailing the
reverse trend of their service
mechanics. 1t was not long ago
that they were seeing imminent
breakdown of civilian transport
tation because of the lack OF
mechanics. Their men were be-
ing urged" by government
agencies to leave their Jobs and
take their places in defense
plants.
This was stopped on orders
from Washington. Now a new
trend has set in. according to
some dealers. Instead Of more
mechanics leaving their posts
some OF who left are coming
back. They want their old jobs
back, tinkering with cars.
One of the reasons given fot
this reversal OF the flow OF
mechanics is that the job in the
plant lis too monotonous. they
would rather have the feeling
they were doing something new
all the time. Another reason is
that recent government an
nouncements 10 the effect that
man can stay on his old job
if il is essential juStifies the.
individuals thinking along the
same lines. His conscience does
not bother him any more. be-
cause the government says 1t
is alright.

Second Lieut.. George S. (Sonny

Ariz., former heavyweight boxer
and service champion, delivered
the final X. o. to a number of Japs
recently while leading patrols in
the Matanikau river sector.
Second Lieut.. Walker and
his men made frequent con-
tact with the enemy. Twice
they ran across Jap machine
gun nests. Leading his men,
Walker hurled grenades. which
were followed by rifle fire
from the entire party. The
crews of both enemy guns
were wiped out.
Corp. Calhoun II. Vestal, White
wright, Texas, a member of these
patrols who accounted for three
Japanese with his rifle, said.
Lieutenant Walker is as COO
as a man can possibly be under
fire. He set fine example. I'm
anxious to go out with him
again"
Vestars sentiments were
reflected by other men, who
besieged Lieut.. Walker with
requests 20 accompany his
patrols.
