Popular Feature of

Bv Lisbefh Sollinq.

Love is uppermost, foremost and
everywhere in soldiers and sailors
hearts, according to Miss Theresa
McDavid OF 2220 Twentieth street
NV, who works for the Recon-
struction Finance Corp. by day
and tells servicemen's fortunes at
the Stage Door Canteen by night.
That's her volunteer contribution
to the entertainment at the canteen.
The men may be headed for
Africa, the second front in Europe
or Guadalcanal, but what they want
to know Is this-listed in sequence
Of Importance:
Will she wait for me?
Will we marry?
Will she write to me regularly?
Will we be happy?
After the boys have finished with
love, they think for while: "Oh,
yes-when will I be sent out?'
Miss McDavid halls from Green
vile, S. c., where she took up for
tune reading in cards as a hobby
and social entertainment. Her
table Is always the most popular
at the canteen. The din from the
orchestra was deafening last night,
and Miss McDavid went out into
the managers Office with a reporter
to talk peacefully about the art of
fortune reading.
Hollywood movies may present
newspaper reporters as a hard
boiled cynical lot, but they are
gullible sentimentalists at heart.
In no time the reporter fetched a
stack of cards and had Miss Nc.
David deep in representations
anent the prospects of a happy
marriage, a dozen kids-and would
he make enough money to support
it all?
The reporters visit with the for
tune teller was interrupted by a
delegation Of sailors who pushed
into the Office shouting, "Hey, you
can't do this to us! We want the
fortune teller"
Miss McDavid had finished read
ing the future at crowded table
last night, when a young blond
sailor from Los Angeles, Calf, said ::
Now, let me read your fortune. !"
He read my palms and did a
splendid job" says Miss McDavid.
He certainly knew his stuff. That's
the first time that ever happened
to me-"

Sharks Are No Hazard
WEIRD battles with sharks and giant squids
are fiction, say the divers. But a descent to
sunken enemy submarine is an operation as
filled with drama and danger as anything in
vented by adventure story writers.
With ships name and location censored,
here is factual picture of such an operation.
Not long ago word was flashed that an
enemy sub had been sunk in accessible waters.
A master diver and several assistant divers
were flown to port nearby, rushed to the
scene by tender.
As the first diver prepared to 60 down, two
destroyers circled the tender. U-boats often
hunt in packs; another might have been out
there in the gloom of pre-dawn. waiting a
chance to torpedo the tender.
The diver slipped into an electrically heated
suit of underwear - vital need at the depth
where the sub lay Helmet in place, he stepped
on the diving stage, started down the weight
ed descending line. Bubbles escaped from his
helmet in steady, dull rumble.
"On the bottom" he reported at last
through the microphone built into his helmet.
He signaled for slack, began wide circle with
the descending line for center.
Abruptly, his lifeline jerked him to a
stop. He traced back to where it was
fouled stumbled in the blackness
against a round dark hull. 1t was the
U-boat, gaping hole in her side, where
the depth-bomb had ripped her open. He
flashed word to the tender.
Another diver came down the line and
lamp and arc torch were lowered. The 1000
watt glare showed the long, battered hull of
the U-boat. A look inside revealed twisted
plates, blocking easy passage to the control
room The master diver took the arc torch,
signaled for current. Flame came in dazzling
blue-white flash, shifting to yellow, greenish
blue as he touched the tip against the sub
marines side.
Methodicaly he cut hole large enough to
let him inside.
The bodies of the ill-fated commander and
the control-room watch moved slowly after
him in the swirl of water from his entrance,
as he headed for the commanders safe. The
electric torch soon burned its way through
the metal, and the diver scooped up the con-
