Talent to Army
From Cotton Club

KEESLER FIELD, Mississippi
Private Nathaniel Hawthorne Smith
native of Roanoke, Virginia, and
presently assigned to the 55th
Training Group at Keesler Field,
has not literary aspirations.
His ambitions are purely musical.
He has proved that by establishing,
in his short stay at Keesler, a rep
utatlon for "boogie-woogie" piano
playing similar to that he enjoyed
at the Cotton Club and at Leon
and Eddie's in New York City.
Smith also has been on tour
with such well known bands as
Andy Kinks and Clyde McCoy's,
with both of which he has been a
featured soloist.
Nathaniel has a brother, Private
William Moses Smith, who is sta
toned in Maryland. The brothers
often teamed up to put on guitar,

mentS.
- KeeSler's. Private Smith first de-
cided he wanted to be pianist in
early youth, when he heard Rach-
maninoff's Prelude in C-Sharp Mi
nor" played on radio program. He
has deviated far from this more or
less classical selection, although
there are those who claim that
'boogie-woogie" can still be CLASH
cal.
Recupterating patients in the hos
pital testify to the value and bene-
fit of Nathaniers pianism. For the
23-year-old soldier went to the hos
pital himself for a tonsillectomy,
played for patients in the Red
Cross recreation hall there, and
has been recalled constantly for re-
peat performances by the patients,
nurses and other members of the
medical staff.
Smith composes for his own en-
tertainment. He has never sought
to publish any of his material.

Colonel Bloomer reiterated that de-
pendency of Il woman upon her huS-
bands income would have no effect
whatsoever on his deferment or the
time of his induction into the service.
He explained that Congress has passed
the Servicemen's dependency allowance

women are already working or are in

Colonel B Bloomer asserted. "Such
women understand that modern wars
are fought not only by men but by
women and entire populations as we'll.
They understand too the need for sup

to the extent of crippling our nations

While the COnnally-Smith bill is for

erase this diScOlOratiOn. The heads of
labor could take a lesson from the

After a major defeat it is customary

might have occurred. This may not be
Il bad time for the leaders of organ
