was a common expression Of SOL

of the combat zone.
Turkey was on the menu of near
ly every mess, although troops in
the front line ate canned rations
and some outfits, rushing supplies
to the front, dipped into "K'' ra-
tons for their Thanksgiving.
Despite the heavy fighting on the
Western Front, truck-loads of mud
begrimed combat troops poured
into Paris, getting a much needed
rest. Some of them had ridden 19
hours on hard truck seats through
rain and mud to get their first
bath in weeks.

And if he is so used to standing
in line he does it automatically
(the article says that it is w i t h
some difficulty that veterans are
persuaded to take seats at the

even do the marketing for the little

But here's a warning. The ar

SYNOPSIS

Barred from the Navy's VT
program because he lacked two
wears of college math, Lester
Dowd tries to enlist in the Coast
Guard but is turned down because
of a facial squirt" The doctor
refuses even to examine him.
Commander Whitman, an old
friend of the family, endeavors to
get waiver for Lester so he can
join VT, but after weeks of wait
ing Lester learns they still insist
on two years of college math. He
is successful in joining the VS.
Naval Aviation and is sent to
Anacostia Naval Base. Six weary
weeks of preliminary ground
school pass by and he is finally
driven to a flying field. He goes

bed, tired of living. A tide was
rising in my throat.
''That was inverted flight"
chirped Mr.. CLOSEUP.
My head fell forward on my
chest. I felt as if I were, going to
drain right out of myself.
Mr.. CLOSEUP looked in the re-
flector.
From your CHASTITY pallor
judge that you are SICK" he said.
MAY I?''
He kindly tipped the plane over
to one side, affording all the COM
forts of home.
I summoned my waning
strength. The large CLOSEUP head
was directly in front of me. The
target was right in my sights and
a couple of damp bursts in back
of the neck was no more than he
deserved. I was on the verge of
pulling the trigger, but the Dowds
are a proud clan. Could I shoot
a man in the back, with my back
ground? flurched to the side of
the cockpit.
We turned for home, while Mr..
CLOSEUP gave a bright resume of
the flight. I slumped lower and
lower into the cockpit in a partial
coma. The figure of Drake re-
crossed my fevered mind, but
this time he wasn't strutting
jauntily off the bowling green.
He lay on his bunk below decks,
an ordinary man humbled by the
elements, swallowing Mother
Stills Pills like peanuts. Few peo-
pie know of that.
In this semiconscious state I felt
the wheels of the plane jar against
the earth. Mr.. CLOSEUP TAXED
slowly back to the place on the
line.
Switch off" he cried to the
mechanic, and leaped nimbly
from his seat.

Oil Firm Founder
py the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BARTLESvILLE, Okla, April IT,
L. E. Phillips, 81, co-founder with
Frank Phillips of the Phillips Pc
troleum Co., died yesterday.
He had been in ill-health several
years and seriously Ill since last
summer when he suffered a stroke.
Funeral arrangements are incon-
plete.
Mr.. Phillips rose to national prom
inence in business and financial
circles and was confidant of some
of the Nations leading figures. He
was adverse to personal publicity.
That perhaps accounts for the
reason that only now can it be
revealed that he could have been
Governor General of the Philip
pines. He was offered that post
by Maj Gen. Patrick Hurley when
the latter was Secretary OF War
under President Hoover. He was
a close friend of both Gen. Hurley
and ALI M. Landon, 1886 COP pres
idential nominee, and maintained a
close personal friendship with the
latter to the end.
Mr.. Phillips was an Iowa farm
boy who, in the American rags
to riches" tradition, became wealthy
as he developed holdings through
out the Midcontinent petroleum
area. Atf
He was born in Conway, Taylor
County, Iowa, August Is, 1876,
