everything and the half ended in a

Sou Scores Twice Again
The second half was all SOU.
Early in the third quarter the Post
team, making a recovery on 371st's
15-yard line, quickly made it first

Infantrymen held momentarily, but
on the third play big Watson plunged
and crossed the goal-line standing

About midway the fourth period
Sou gained 80 yards by somewhat
freakish but highly successful play
when Turner, on fourth down and
apparently trapped on SOUS 30

legs, evaded would-be tacklers who

ball desperately forward ina long,

Renaldo turned anxiously to Al
lison.

He made a sweeping gesture with
his hand
"A girl has to dress - even in
the junglel" she said lightly.
Dress, yes. but surely you won't
need all this. The more mules we
have to take the more trouble we
are apt to get into"
/ There you go worrying about
the mules again. / have already
spoken to the mules and they said
they would be delighted to carry

Barry had a look of hopeless
abandonment ON his face as he
turned toward Renaldo.
Renald0 shouted something to
the native boys. For a half hour
the boys lugged baggage and
strapped it securely to the wooden
carriers on the animals backs
Finally Jose came in to announce
that all was ready. The rain had
let up some and had turned from
q solid sheet into a fine sharp
drizzle.
The long caravan started single
file through the dim quiet street
of the village. Jose led the way
and Renaldo followed close be-
hind. Allison and Barry rode side
by side. Attire they had passed
beyond the clearing that had been
hewn by sharp axes and machetes
for the village site. the green solid
wall of jungle rose before them.
Giant kapok. balsa. mora. and
greenheart trees reached up to-
ward the murky sky. Jose first
disappeared from sight into the
jungle faStness, then Renaldo.
"T'he patch is only wide enough
for one mule at q time" Barry
said quietly. You go ahead. I'll
follow"
Allison felt cold fear grip her
but she smiled valiantly and dug
the heels Of her boots into the
mules sides as she trotted after
Renaldo.

Barry didn't answer. Allison turn

Senaldo smiled his amusement,
THAT might be month from

COLD FEAR
CHAPTER VIII

TIE rain was pelting like bullets
on the tin roof. The ciose sickness
OF the air made the heat seem more
oppressive than when the sun pour
ed down. Barry came down the mar
row boardwalk to the small hotel
ofElce. In the thin gray light OF early
morning he could see he was quite
alone except for the native desk
clerk who was stretched full length
In q chair snoring noisily. Then the
street door opened and Renaldo
beads of rain glistening on his
dark face, came in. Behind him
came o giant Of a man whom he
introduced as Jose. Across Jose's
hairy chest swung crossed car
fridge belts. Two old style six
shooters bumped his hips as he
walked.
'.Jose is the best muleteer in all

the best guide as well. After we
get to the plantation he will go

A queer smile crossed Renaldo's

There comes to mind, however.
a group of Jewish soldiers who
are the first of a small unit of
men who are not only American
soldiers but are Enthusiastically
knit by the bonds not so much of
faith in Judaism as in awareness
of the fact that they are Jewish,
through birth and through up
bringing. This means, simply,
that these men try to do things
together spend their time with
one another and are known, to
some extent, as that group of
Jewish boys from New York.
Notice the phrase New York"
AS has been stressed time and a.
again, New York is more than
state-or are we thinking exclu
sively of the city?-it is, in effect,
a state of mind. The New York
Jew, without disparagement, is
different from the Mid-Western
Jew. He has lived in mental
ghetto, although he will be the
first to deny it. He has always
lived among his own people so
that he seldom thinks of problems
which may beset the Jew who
lives amidst thousands and thous-
ands of non-JewS. The New York
Jew does not have to worry over
much about educating his child
in Judaic traditions if he has a
mind to do so; not so the Jew in
the other sections of the land.
| But this is depression. The
point is that these men are New
York Jews and, somehow, togeth-
er they form an organic whole.
They are the Jewish soldier as the
non-Jew is used to thinking of
the Jewish soldier = together,
bound by a similar faith.
The men have in mind are
not all particularly interesting,
but then again, life itself is not
itself cut in swathes of Holly
wood glamour, nor is it made up
of the vast imaginings of the
sweeping world of a Thomas
Wolfe. The men are plain, simple
Iprosaic. They happen to be in
the Army; they are Jews; they

many loop-holes which the army
affords. to evade certain duties
AS such a character he is often
the butt of many Well-intended
jibes. AS popular as anyone I
know, he lives for his next date,
for his furlough and for the day
the war will end and he can fin
ally be graduated from the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania.
You will see that these three
boys are by no means the kind
which Saroyan will write about.
They do not have the so-called
color" of the imaginary charact-
ers of a Dostoievski. Nonethe-
less, what is interesting about
them is that, individually, they
are yourself in uniform and that,
collectively, they are the Jewish
boy from the next street who has
been drafted, is far away from
home fighting a war which we
all know, some vaguely, some
clearly, must be won.
They have been combined here
because they are known where
they are as "the Jewish gang"
1t is seen here that they are no
different from others. They har-
Dor no completes. Their Judaism
is the average background of the
occasional Yiddish phrase, the
ordinary Bar Mitzvah education,
the usual semi-awareness of Zion
ism and the complete awareness
of what the war means to Jews
everywhere for they are, color or
no color, intelligent boys.
To the anti-Semite they prove
that they are like themselves,
without the tarnish of hate: to

ner at which they can point with
pride. To the religious leader
they are somewhat a disappoint-
ment because they are not of their
particular cult. To most persons,
however, they are no more or less
than what they are: Jewish sold
iers, Americans, preparing to
fight for their land. Don't let
anyone kid you. Most Jewish boys
in this war are like them: minus
glamour, minus the completes
that make good reading, and sans
care, other than the worry that
they want to be around when the
war is over so that they can enjoy
the home they have loved in the
United States.

The problem of adjustment to
army life continues to crop up
everywhere at all times, in all
camps, among soldiers of all
sorts, regardless of home back
ground, ideologies, wishes, desires
or fantasies. And because the
Jew. as such, has been the favor
lite subject in regards to matters
of adjustment, I am not surprised
when 1 am accosted by countless
leading Jewish personalities with
the question, ''How do Jewish
boys do in the services ?"
Sometimes the queries are put
hesitantly, as though the curious
questioner is afraid that the an
swer will, somehow, reflect a.
gainst the patriotism or heroism
of the Jewish soldiers involved.
At times the question is boldly

like each other and, thus, stick
together.
The first of them is Morris
Mazer, a Brooklynite. He is
handsome in a robust sort of way,
although he is not the tall type.
His smile is even, his poise is
assuring, he does not feel out of
place anywhere. A former press
man in a print shop, Mazer is
something of Sholem Aleichem's
luftmench in the twentieth CEN
fury idiom, dressed in Uncle
Sans khaki. His wry humor is
funny, but it tickles the risibili-
ties of the Jew more than anyone
else. His gestures are those long
exploited by comedians who make
living out of their laughing at
so-called Jewish humor. The diff
ference is that while they are
patiently fakes, Mazer is the real
thing. He has an even temper, is
the sort of soldier who fits into
the army, although he will be the

sense of reality which helps; a
sense of humor which saves. He
is good company and-this may
be used as fodder for the profess
sional Jew-defenders- although he
is more or less Immediately
known as a Jew, he is just as
speedily liked. Educated rather
haphazardly, he has a knowledge
of more things that he has right
to know.
The second fellow is a husky
boy named Abraham Marks. He
is young, 10. Just out of school,
he does not have the savior-faire,
mixed with a happy crudeness of
Mazer. He is, too, Jewish" He
has a sense of humor which is
Semitic, and to many people that
is keen sense of humor. He
worries that his parents worry
about him. He is aware of the
fact that there had been strong
talk of anti-Semitism in the Unit
ed States before the war began,
and now he is happy that he has
come across none of it. He is an
omnivorous eater and he lives in
the army with the same natural
ness that a fish takes to water.
He enlisted and makes no bones
about it. He, like Mazer, likes to

often talks of seeing the chaplain
