Sgt. Crumpler was inducted into
the army while he was studying
music at the Juillard Institute OF
Musical Arts, New York, N. Y Like
Robson, he abandoned ambition to
become a lawyer, SO great was his
incentive to pursue music and dra-
matics. Sgt. Crumpler had complet-
ed two years of pre-law work at
Youngstown (Ohio) college. Having
attended school most of his life, he
has had only limited opportunity to
achieve the renoWn which his eX-
ceptional singing talent deserves.
He has, however, done a great
deal of commendable radio work,
singing on N.B.C,. sustaining pro-
gram, which originated in Youngs-
town, and giving recitals in Cleve-
land New Castle and Pittsburgh.
Transferred From 92nd
Sgt. Crumpler was transferred to
the Special Service group from the
92nd Division in January, 1914. He
has been in the army since Decem-
ber, 1912, and had participated in
all of the Divisions musical efforts
He has already made a name for
himself in the Special Service group,
having won acclaim on the War
Bond Calvacade and by his appear
ances at the Service Clubs and other
entertainments given at the Post.
The sergeant is the son of Attor-
hey and Mrs. C. H. Crumpler, Sr., Of
Youngstown, Ohio. He feels, now
that he is given an opportunity to
/ sing for his comrades, that the
army, instead of cutting off his
| career, has given him greater i'm
petus to enhance it, so he enters in
to his duties joyously and with full
/ enthusiasm.

The Fort Huachuca library has
at its disposal II modern 16 mill

projectors and B alopticians. The
film stock consists of nearly 500 up
to the minute sound films and 300
film strips covering almost any sub

war.
Due to increased demand it has
become necessary to book films at
least week in advance. this service

Pvt. Quinn has been recently as
signed to the duties of stock clerk,

= Sgt David Griffin (T/3rd) is the
instructor at the projectionist
School. Because of the delicate
mechanism Of the projectors it is
necessary that each organization
that uses film have trained pro-
jectionist available to show these
films. Because each projecting unit
costs the government nearly $500, it
is important that the utmost care
be given these precision instru-
ments. Bell and Howell, Ampro,

at the local library.

Why Dewey Lost

Tom Dewey's crushing defeat can be attributed
largely to two things
/. The people did not want to change presi-
dents in the middle of a war.
2. Dewey talked too much
It is our opinion the Republicans made their first
mistake when they literally crcfied the late Wendell
Wikie early in his campaign for second try at the
presidency causing him to withdraw from the race
for the Republican nomination.
Had Willkie lived and been the COP nominee
the Republicans would have had much better chance
this year. He was too progressive, too much like
Roosevelt, for party bossed by Herbert Hoover,

The soldier about to be discharged

across the country.
There, his papers are checked and
he is given a record-called a separ-

Which means: The kind of Jobs
he had done in civilian life and the
kind of jobs he learned to do in the
