motif, kept the audience rolling
in the aiSles" for about 80 min
utes of the zippiest stage-time
ever offered in this city.
Purpose of the travelling
troupe is to stimulate interest
and enlistments in the WAC
but, artfully, the Commercial"
aspect of the show was soft
pedaled and the entertainment
side most generous.
Lieut.. Robert Hixon, AAF
combat pilot with a string of
Zeroes from the South Pacific
on his belt, gave a curtain talk
on the AAFs job down under"
in the days when plane and
manpower supplies were made
quate TO hold off the Japs (but
didD. On returning to this
country recently, Lieut.. Hixon
saw his first WAC "in action"
and after further observation of
the Womens work in dozens of
AAF centerS delivered a chiVal-
rouS salute TO their splendid con-
tribution TO the war effort.
A similar patriotic monologue
was delivered by talented mas
ter of ceremonies Corpl. Stan
GreenSpan, who urged the wo-
men Of America to rally TO their
flags support as did the women
of other nations.
The show itself was top-notch.
1t presented a bevy of talent
which if it could all be accumul-
ated on one stage in peacetimc
would rate 1920 general admiS-
sion at any Broadway theatre.
Among the talented Stars-in-
uniform, outstanding hits were
made by Corpl. Bobby Steven
son, rated by Tommy Dorsey as
enc of the countrys greatest
piano players; Corpl. Jerry Zier-
ing, trumpeter supreme; Corpl.
Greenspan, mimic; Corpl. Dicky
Cohen, Ventriloquist, and, last
but by no means least, Corpl.
Tony Costello, who, this critic
believes would rather face she'll
fire as a Gil, than endure the
hilarious "sWooning' of the
bobby socks crow which
screamed delightfully."- as he out
Sinatrad Sinatra. Tony was a
hero and the highlight of the
show, even tho It's said they
had to smuggle him out side
door afterwards to save his shirt
from souvenir hunters.
The lack of any substantial
amount of WAC talent in the
show, regretted by many in the
audience, helped call attention
to the nations $1,000 shortage
of WACS, and might serve to
stimulate talented volunteers
from the Mount Clemens dist
riot. Pfc. Agatha Hoeschele
(violinisD, and Pfc. Glenna
Schoenbeck (soprano) were the
two main WAC attractions.
Prior TO the evening concert,
the AAF and WAC troupers;
their directors, Lieut.. Frances A.
Lanning and Lieut. Robert Hix-
on, and county and city Civilian
Defense representatives were
entertained at dinner at the
Methodist Church clubrooms by
the Monitor-Leadcr.

is lacking is the manpower to
do the job.
APPEAL TO WORKERS
AS a result forward looking
business leaders today appealed
to the hundreds of Mount Glenn
-enS-men- and women now en-
ployed in Detroit TO consider
the advantages Of working right
here at home where good pay
rates are available and with
consequent reduction in the con-
sumption Of tires, gasoline and
home-to- Job travelling time.
The appeal, likewise, was di-
rected TO persons now uncm-
ployed who can, and will, dis
play their patriotism by helping
out in the war effort right here
at home.
LESS-ESSENTIAL JOBS
In addition to the 500 or more
tr.i C lily war plant openings
which exist in Mount Clemens
today another 500 less-essential
jobs ranging from those Of clerks
to garage mechanics and civil
ial=production factory workers
are now open. the survey Of the
manpoWer problem here reveals.
Nolan, as head Of the U. S.
Employment Service branch in
Mount Clemens, said that the
personnel of his department will
be pleased TO acquaint interested
persons with information con-
corning the types Of work avail
able -. and where they. can be
obtained.
He said that the proper pro-
cedure required for worker
seeking to change essential en-
ployment consists, first, of APP
plying to the present employer
for a release. If that proves inn
impossible TO obtain a worker
may then appeal TO the War
ManpoWer Commission office
located nearest to his home. If
he can show that great hard
ships result from his continuing
employment so far from his res
idence he may be adjudeed to
be entitled TO a change in Jobs
and a certificate Of availability
will then be issued.

Tire Tubes Still Under Ration

Tubes are still rationed in the Territory regardless of reports to the contrary, it was announced today by Mrs. Helene G. Johnson, rationing executive of the Alaska Office of Price Administration.
 Announcements concerning the release of tubes in the States where gasoline rationing controls driving has led to confusion in the minds of persons who need tubes. and letters, :. and advertisements from suppliers who forget that Alaska operates under different tire regulations have even con- fused dealers, it was explained. The general public is therefore warned that in Alaska tubes are still rationed and can be sold only on certificates issued by the War Price and Rationing Board in the community in which the vehicle on which they are to be used is located.

Bo1nbers Sink Vessel Near Islands
By MURLIN SPENCER

ADVANCED ALLIED HEAD QUARTERS ON NE WGUINEA, July 24.-(AP)-Terms of the Allied communiques on the Paci- fife war swung back to the Phil ippines today for the first time in two years, when General MacAr- thur announced, Our air patrols sank a coastal vessel, TO miles off the coast of Mindanao."
 This was the first mention of the Philippines in a Macarthur communique, since the fall of Corregidor May 6, 1942.
 The official silence screening all activities around the Philippines has thus been lifted, and it can now be disclosed that American planes have been patroling closely the Japanese operations in the islands.
 MacArthur's planes are now pa trolling at least 900 miles to the northwest of the most advanced bases on Biak, Owi and Noemfoor Islands off the coast of New Gui. nea.
 The communique also disclosed that the Japanese trapped in the Wewak area, on British New Gui- nea, seemed to be concentrating their forces for heavy attacks against the American lines, along the Driniumor river
 New Guinea based Liberators again gave support to the Guam landings by bombing Yap, Palau, and Woleai in the by-passed Car olines.
