"HIs week an epic letter was written BY
3O-year-old American soldier:
d Dear Ma: This is my first letter from
CAMP. / live in an Army barracks uih many
other men, We all eat in the mess hail. The
food is good hope Pa and you are ueH
am well. Tom.
As literary effort it doesn't exactly knock
your hat off - you must read between the
lines to get the story.
What Tom calls his first letter from
camp is. in reality, the first he has ever writ
ten in his 30 years. Tom is a student in one
of the Armys literacy classes.
Some outsider will have to read that letter
to Ma, because neither she nor Pa ever had
any "book-larnn' either. And when Tom
might have been going to the one-room school,
house down the mountain, he was needed for
numerous chores on the patch of rocky soil
the family titled. In all he's never had as
much as six months of schooling, but he has
considerable degree of native intelligence and
shrewdness. The reading primer the Army
furnished him is the second book he's
ever seen in his life; the tattered Bible
the region was the first.
In short, this Southern mountaineer IS a
product of one of the biggest and most i'm
portant salvage projects Uncle Sam has ever

Confused

MANY Of these soldiers have only the vagu
est idea of what's going on in the world about
them Some were considerably surprised to
hear that war was on. Others had never
heard of Hitler One fellow told the board OF
interviewing officers that he was awfully
mixed up. Back in 'l8 his pappy had told him
that they had hung the Kaiser and now
people were telling him that the Kaiser was
building ships for Uncle Sam But the prize

asked the name of the President Of the United
States He scratched his head for few min

Al right. then, if gave you two ten

The lad thought long while and looked at

to that question
even before the
Army undertook
its present pro-
gram. He said: Il

No educational aid is overlooked in this
work. Specially prepared movies, pocket-size
readers with large type faces, notebooks,
ewspapers, even comic strips are utilized.
4 special newspaper, Our War is printed
every fortnight: eight pages Of simple, lucid
articles describing world events, the valor of
our allies the nature of different Army jobs,
the use of various equipment
But without doubt the most popular fea-
ture of Our War" is Private Pete, hero of
the sheets comic strip. Pete is a typical
rookie Well-meaning he is, but little slow
to grasp the intricacies of Army life. It's easy
for most readers of Our War" to identify
themselves with Pete. And as Pete learns the
ms and outs OF salutlng, among other things.
his adnlring readers also get the general idea.
Self-Coufident
kAS THEIR education continues, these men
begin to acquire new confidence in themselves
Some of them are so proud OF their newly
found ability to read that they always whip
out a newspaper or reader when they have
free moment on the field or in the barracks.
Everyone has simply got to know that they
can read, Every now and then man will
approach his instructor and say now that he
can read little whens he gonna be wearin'
specs?
One instructor noticed that many of the
beginners in his class acquired unseemly
b,,lr fbaIr cl-ptc
out that they had converted their pay into
silver dollars and half-dollars as a result of
their lifelong dlstrust of paper money. The
instructor devoted half of his next session
reading every word on dollar bill and ex-
planning why the bill was Just as good as a
silver dollar Finally he concluded:
And remember, this dollar bill is signed
and guaranteed by Mr. W. A. Julian. the
Treasurer of the United States of America"
One farm lad raised his hand and asked:
is this Mr. Julian fellow man to be trusted
with silver?'
The instructor soIemnlH assured him
that Mr. Julian was indeed a man to be
trusted. Thereafter there were no runs on
big silver coins at the post exchange.
Inevitably, when the subject of illiteracy
in the Army is brought up, someone will say
that Sergeant York, hero of World War |,
couldn't write yet he captured 1872 Germans
sngehanded So why all the fuss about
teaching these soldier illiterates::
Sergeant York himself supplied the answer
to that question

Hockey Game Tonight

BY the Associated Press.
Even the players will pay their
way into Madison Square Garden
tonight when the New York Ran
gers and Detroit Red Wings clash
in National Hockey League game
with the receipts going to the Red
Cross.
No more appropriate team than
the last-place Rangers could be
found to participate in such a
benefit, for they probably have
learned to appreciate the work Of
such organizations as the Red Cross
The Blue Shirts own the longest
injury list in the league and in
their present position are in need Of
moral support.
In the only other league game on
tonights schedule the Chicago
Black Hawks and Montreal Cana
diens collide at Montreal.
The New York game will give
the Red Wings chance to climb
over the idle Toronto Maple Leafs
into second place. The Wings are
only point behind the Leafs, who
trail the league-leading Boston
Bruins by four points.

Bell, Youthful Bison
GoaIie, Bears Out
Praise Of Boss
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Gordie Bell. 17-year-old netminder
Of the Buffalo Bisons in the Amer
lean Hockey League, who is rated
by his manager, Eddie Shore, as "the
best goalie prospect for his age in
many a year." justified his boss
claims by turning in his fifth shut
out of the season last night, a
10 victory over the Indianapolis
Capitals.
The victory, which preserved the
Western Division lead for the Bisons,
came in the first period when Fred
die Hunt drove the puck home.
In the only other contest, the
Hershey Bears, Eastern half pace
settlers, defeated the Pittsburgh
Hornets, 4-3, in an overtime match.
BY losing, Indianapolis missed an
opportunity to go into q first-place
tie with the Bisons.
Bell now has two SO and two
10 whitewashings to his credit. In
his other perfect Job, his team also
failed to score.
