mand of all Allied forces In
North Africa. and creation of
a North African theater of
operations, it was announced
that such portions of the Brit

theater would come under his
command. Roughly the North
African theater and the Egyp-
tian-Libyan zone of British
Middle East operations are di-
vided by line running down

1t. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower
today was named commander In
chief OF all Allied forces in North
Africa.
At the same time, Allied head
quarters announced establish
ment of a North African theater

Creation OF the separate North
African theater relieves Gen. Eisen-
hover of his joint command over the
United States theater of operations
in Europe, which now Is a separate

Even as the Eisenhowever appoint-

was 60 miles inside Tunisia for the
coming showdown with the Axis.
Gen. Eisenhower's appointment,
presumably arranged at the historic

"Why what?"
Allison whirled. Barry and
Lila were standing in the door

on~Lila's face. Allison took a
deep, malicious breath.
Barrys gaze had accustomed
itself to the gloom of the shack
and deepened with concern at
the sight of the sick men.

"Overwork," snapped Allison.
"They-" A. she looked at Bar
ry. her voice faltered. The CLEAN
went out of her eyes. They just
overworked, she said quietly.
She walked out into the blaz-
ing sunlight and Renaldo fol-
lowed her, glazing at Lila.
Allison introduced him to Lii
la. AS the tall Spaniard bowed,
they all noted the change in his
expression. His accusing scowl
melted under warm glow OF
interest as he turned from Lila
to Barry.

oed happily.
Busy days stretched ahead for
everyone at the estancia. From
every direction in the jungle
chiclcros brought their canvas
bags of fresh latex TO the clear
ing.
Steam rose all day and far in
20 the evening from the huge
copper kettles.
Renaldo was in half dozen
places at once, seeing that the
fires were 'ept banked, the la
tex poured into the cooking
watts, and, rvhen boiled to thick
mass, poured into the cooling
molds. There was the weighing
TO be done, the paying off OF
each chiclero, the mules and
men TO be fed and bedded, and
constant protection of the chicle
from the drenching rains.

softened in Allisons eyes under
a sudden warm smile.
IL wish / were clever like

ly. II know you'd think Of

Lila shot Allison a look of
quick suspicion but Barry
laughed in relief GO ahead,

Lila shrugged her slender
shoulders delicately. Well" she
unused thoughtfully, pass out

"Well then" Lila thought rap
idly, and came up with an in

men sew them"
Allison looked stunned with
sudden relief. Then she gave a
whoop of JOY. Lila, your an
absolute genius" She turned to
Barry enthusiastically. Shes

She darted to the veranda

Lila choked little on her

SO Lila was cOerced into the
plantation activity. The little
teaching proved more than she

Barry had taken over the task
of stamping each brick of cool
ing chicle with the trademark
of the plantation. 1t was a small
but important routine which Re-
naldo did not like to leave to
natives and il eased Barry's
Impotence somewhat. Each of
Renaldo's tasks accomplished
brought the next visit to Moncha
Suma nearer.
Allison was almost as busy as
Renaldo. Like him she began to
get up at dawn in order to do
her heaviest work before the
MONDAY heat set in. The fame
of her zoot caps had spread like
wild fire among the horde Of
chicleros, and she was besieged
with calls for more.
She had stitched the first caps
painstakingly by hand. But with
the sudden demand, this method
would not suffice. She came
hurrying across the clearing one
suffocatingly hot morning to the
veranda where Lila and Barry
were having breakfast Barry
leaped up to pull chair for
her.
Take it easy. zoot queen" he
begged. You'll melt on one
of those rushing trips Of yours
and someone will scoop you up
for latex."
Allison laughed eaily, push
ing back an unruly sunburned
lock Of hair off her tanned face
with the back of her hand.
The precious joke Of it all
is" she confided, that my zoot
caps aren't invulnerable and the
Indians know it. But it's got
about through the tribe that I'm
lucky for them. And anything
! give them is lucky piece, So
I'm stuck with about 40 more
zoot caps TO make"
Lila took a sip Of her iced
coffee You have complicated

Allison gave her guest quick

quisitely tailored silk shorts and
blouse, cool and immaculate.
