 Raymond Titterington, former USES employe here and now a special government recruiter, is in charge of the new recruitment pro- gram, which will reach out to pa- irons of taverns, bowling alleys, recreation centers and drugstore cowboys" The recruiter will go wherever crowds gather and will question anyone he sees on taking a job.
 The recruiting method, described in some quarters as a Hast resort" means to get workers, has been used in other sections of the coun- try. and officials report it has been widely successful.
 Three manufacturing plant work CTS have been assigned to assist Litterington in distributing the pink handbills. The crew consists of Harold Heating of the Scovill Mfg. Co, John Purdy of the Cahse Brass & Copper Co.,, and Vincent Genua of the American Brass Go.
 Virtually all store windows in the downtown areas will have the hand bills on display, Mrs. Mary Dewey, area WING director, stated, adding that no one will be able to go any, where without constant reminder that there is a war jab to do in this city, and that help is critically needed to do 1t.
 Local police have given the WING full authority to place the pink re- m1nderS wherever they choose, and thousands have been printed.
 Meanwhile another method of saving the production front has been devised and was put in effect here today when two Army ord nance officers arrived to serve at thhe Scovill Mfg. Go. as checkers on 'exit termina tions.''
 The two officers, Captain George Giles and Lieutenant w. H. Nichols, both fro mthe Springfield ordnance headquarters, will meet each per- son who wishes to quit his job, and will determine the basis of the move The Army men will work in close cooperation with the WING in an ef- fort to keep warworkers on the job.
 Numerous other means of keep ing production up in this city has been devised by the WING, which this week started a new program to aid in the prosecution of the war. The greatly accelerated recruitment program, brought about by the needs of the new ammunitions pro- duction, is one of the phases of the WING program.

Give me rugged New England any time" she said.
 Well, her anti Chamber of Com merce comments wound up in print and the M-G-M publicity depart ment decided something had to be done with "the difficult Miss Illus sey."
 UNUSUAL LADY
 Every time I was interviewed after that" she said, "the publicity department sent along someone to hold my hand. When I was asked whether l liked my current role, or what I thought of Hollywood, the press agent would kick me under the table and interrupt with Why, just yesterday Ruth told me how won derful blah blah blah blah.' Tt wasn't long, though, before M-G-M dispensed with the press agent con- voy as Ruth became acclimated to the town and it's people.
 As you probably have guessed by now, Ruth Hussey is a very unusual and uninhibited young lady. Even the way Hollywood discovered her was unusual.
 She was playing the role of the street walker in the road com pany. M-G-M talent scout Billy Grady sat in the audience one night and offered her screen test the next day. Later when she asked him what impressed him the most, Grady said: You were the first screen actress I'd ever seen who could sneak onto Stage.'
