So pleased is Paramount with

sequel already is being plotted,

a probable title Ida Lupino
spends two days week cheering up
the boys at the Corona Naval Hos
pital. Her husband, Capt. Louis
Hayward. veteran of Tarawa, is
there. but the actress is not allowed
to see him If the war doesn't
last too long, Universal won't miss
the absence of Donald O'Connor
and it's clear why they're paying
him his full salary while he's in the
Army. They have four unreleased
|O'Connor pictures, besides two musi-
Gals in which he has lesser roles.
Frank Sinatra is not only king
OF the bobby sockers. he is thor
oughly established as a Hollywood
idol. At recent premiere, Sinatra
got the biggest ovation, both inside
and outside the theater, and there
were a lot of top movie stars there,
too >. Since Betty Hutton met Capt.
Clark Gable, she has intimated that
a date with the captain would be
quite okay. So far, no dice :.
When Maria Montez was introduced
at the servicemen's canteen in
Washington. she was greeted by the
customary two-tone whistle. Into
the mike, Miss Montez said, In my
country, whistling at a lady is a
mark of disrespect." There was
dead silence. But" she added
Il am not III my country" The
whistles then nearly raised the roof
and Maria was dubbed "the girl of
the whistle stop"
One of the greatest success stories
in Hollywood history was written
the moment Paul Lukas was named
best actor by academy voters.
Lukas was one of the great influx
Of European actors to hit movie
town around the time Emil jan
nings arrived He couldn't speak
word of English. Talkies suddenly
put him right on the shelf. He
struggled with the new language
and with coaches. and soon was
penniless. Bit and non-speaking
parts-and very few of these-were
the only jobs he could get.
After he made his hit in 1.-THE
Watch on the Rhine" via Broadway.
things were a lot different when he
returned to Hollywood. Producers
who wanted no part of him a year
before now called him Paul and
asked him to drop around. After
he snatched the oscar, they added
an "old boy" to their affectionate
greeting and slapped him on the
back for good measure.
Lukas can have almost anything
he wants in Hollywood today-but a
dozen years ago he would have set
tied for beefsteak and a cut of pie.
It's grand old town-if you don't
turn your back too often.
AS mentioned recently, some
stand-ins are almost as well known
at the studios as the stars with
whom they work. One of these is
Gale Sondergaard's burden breaker, ;,
Miss Pat Miller.
Pat Is favorite Of the crews,
particularly because of the quick wit
with which she kids the stars and
makes them like it. Recently, a.
well-known actor was blowing his
lines frequently and the director
called a recess. When the actor

RECREATIONAL PROGRAM

Continued from Page 1, Col. D
 A membership fee of 50 cents a month is being charged. Special bus service from the Canteen to Rockwell's Corners, for the con- venience of those residing in the Eastern section of the Town, has been arranged. The bus will leave the Masonic Hall at 1O:45 PM.
 The newest feature of the gen. eral recreational program approv- ed by the organizations executive officers is the organization of junior sportsman league which will promote complete instruction course in the art of fishing. This particular project is the proposal of and will be directed by Kenneth Herman of Terry Plains Road.
 According to MT. Herman, the course will comprise study of the various uses of all kinds of fish ing bait, the purpose, care and use of various types of tackle, and a study of the traits, habits and characteristics of the different kinds of fish. The course will stress instructions in bait casting and will include also study of the State Game and Fish regula- tions and frequent trips to State Hatchery and Game Farms.

WARNING SERVICE IS DISCONTINUED
War Department to Give Local SpOtters Honorable Discharges

Although admitting the danger of enemy bombing has not passed, the War Department inactivated the Aircraft Warning Service in- cluding the Bloomfield Spotters Post at 500 AM. Monday, May 29.
 The orders means the immediate release from further active serv- ice of the 15O observers who have manned the local post so faith fully since Pearl Harbor. The service will be absorbed on re- duced scale into installations for the training of fighter pilots.
 The curtailment of these de- lenses against aerial attack, it is said, is a calculated risk" that is justified in view of the enemy's present bombing capabilities and the need for additional offensive power overseas. More than 100000 soldiers engaged in the operation of the extensive civilian warning service and much valuable equip ment will be sent abroad.
 The War Department communi cations to Chief Observer William c. Breining of the local observers corps indicate all members of the organization will receive certifi- cate of honorable service as we'll as letters of commendation from Secretary of War Stimsop and Colonel Stewart w. Toole, Jr. of the First Fighter Command. A number, it is said, may be awarded with merit medals.
 Lieutenant Colonel H. l.. Bald ridge of the New York Fighter Wing Headquarters, in addressing Chief Observer Breining regarding the War Departments order to in activitate the local post, states ''The Aircraft Warning Service has been the outstanding civilian effort of the entire war and you should all feel proud of your part in it. ,"

GIRL FLYER GETS
 COMMERCIAL LICENSE
Gloria Loeffler Becomes States Youngest Licensed Air Pilot

The honor of being the States most youthful aviator and one of the youngest of such pilots in the country was bestowed upon Gloria Loeffler on May 19 when she re-, ceived her commercial license from the Civil Aeronautics Administra- tion.
 Miss Loeffler is the personable daughter of MT. and Mrs. Walter Loeffler of Loeffler Road. She flies her own plane-a Piper Coupe which, by some twist of reason ing. she has named "Nellie." The plane was the gift of her parents upon her graduation from Bloom field High School a year ago.
 Miss Loeffler announced her in tention to make flying her career when little more than five years of age at which time she took her first ride in an airplane. She took up the active study of flying just two years ago this month and re- ceived her student S license July 22, 1922 immediately after her first solo trip. Since that time she has spent more than 200 hours alone in the air.
 She got her first license more than year before finishing high school. These initial instructions were received at the Simsbury Airport where she became a mem Der of the State Civilian Air Patrol Squadron but her commercial pilots license followed IS months of intensive study of commercial flight course at the Herman Fly ing Service, Springfield, Mass. Her final test was a 61a hour written examination covering nav igation, meteorology, theory of flight and aerial dynamics, engines and aircrafts, general maintenance and civil air regulations.
 The petite pilot has set an in structor's license as one of her next goals. In the meantime she hopes to aid the present war effort by securing a commission to fly parts from air plants to air fields. Another ambition is to some day encircle the globe in an airplane.
 Miss Loeffler's brother, Captain Walter Loeffler, IT,, is also an aviator. He is now on foreign ser vice with the US. Air Forces.

completed WlCH CHo OCdCo 10AA '" Game commission to stock F1lley Park Pond with sizeable croppy and other species of fish each fall and spring so as to provide worth while fishing as a supplement to the course of study. The present proposal is to solicit the particular interest of youths under 10 years of age.
 In commenting upon this feature of the general recreational pro gram those in charge express great satisfaction over the ability to se- cure MT. Herrman's services to direct the venture. He won the Hartford Fish and Game Club reg ular rod and reel long distance fly casting in 1880; took first place in the Wethersfield fly cast ing tournament in 1885 in com petition with the New York State fly casting champion; and won the Canadian all species fishing con test in 1942 when he corralled the largest land lock salmon of the year on a 5 ounce rod. The fish weighed 121a pounds and required 1% hours landing time. MT. Her rman has been fishing since he was five years of age, had much to do with the development of the Bloomfield Game Club and was its president in 194O. He has made numerous sport photographs and written several articles for the sports column of the Hartford Courant.
 Early announcements of inter- est are promised in connection with the organization of the soft ball league being formed under the guidance of Chief Thomas P. Bowen of the Bloomfield Police. It is expected that scores of the boys in all sections of the town will be particularly interested in this undertaking. The school dia- monds of Bloomfield center and the Blue Hills section will be util ized for it's promotion.
 Herbert F. Stiles of Tunxis Av- enue, who was named temporary chairman of the general committee, which gave preliminary study to the establishment of a recreational program locally was elected per manent chairman of the organiza- tion at public meeting held at the Bloomfield High School, Mon- day, May 22. At that time the group was given the name of the Bloomfield Community Organiza- tion. Reverend William D. Barnes was elected vice-chairman and Miss Fedora Ferraresso, secretar~- and treasurer. A publicity committee consisting of Reverend Thomas Foxall, Mrs. Basil Austin, Leland Baum, Charles Loomer, and Mrs. Fred Sharpe are cooperating with the officials of the organization with the hope of making the pro- ject one of town-wide interest. Con- tributions to cover the initial eX- pense of the program have already been pledged in the amount of $2O0 in donations from the Lions Club, the Blue Hills Volunteer Fire Department, the Women's Guild of the Federated Church, and the League of Women Voters.
