rangers acknowledged at the end
Of the season. They were much
more on the job than men. One
20-year-old girl served on four
separate lookouts and got 10
first reports on actual fires. This
considerably exceeded the rec
ord by any other lookout in this
forest"
AS for the women secre-
taries, school teachers, service
mems wives, department store
clerks and students-their sum-
mer in a lookout tower was the
most satisfying vacation they'd
ever had.
OF course, they admit, there
were d "a W b k s. Sometimes
they'd have to tote water from
a spring two miles away. They
had to chop their own wood, do
their own cooking on a tiny,
stubborn stove in the tower and
sleep on a not-too- comfortable
cot. The mail was delivered
about once every two weeks,
when supplies were brought up
TO them.
And worst Of all were the not
infcquent visits from inquisitive
bears and other critters which
proWled around the base of their
towers.
But there were plenty of COM
pensatiOnS. There was time for
books they'd always planned to
read: Long, lazy hours Of lying
in the sun gave them a tan which
was the envy of. the girls at
home and carried them through
the winter without cold. Most
satisfying of all was the knoWl-
edge that they were doing an
invaluable wartime service in
guarding the safety of their
country.
If the war goes well, they may
not be needed next year. But if
they are, the women lookouts
say they'll be right on hand to
keep watch over the nations for
ests.

The first summer after Amer
lea entered the war, hundreds Of
old-time forest guards and sea-
sonal employees who had manned
towers in the country'S forests,
failed TO appear. They either had
entered the service or gone TO
work at war plants.
The Forest Service was faced
with a serious manpoWer short
age and the threat of unreported
fires sweeping the nations for
ests.
Reluctantly district rangers
decided to fill the glassWalled
towers with women lOOkOutS.
The men were frankly pesSimis-
tic. If they knew womenfolk,
they predicted, it was sure
thing the ladies would soon find
that living alone in a 70-foOt
tower high up on a mountaintop,
not seeing a living soul for two
weeks at time, the wind howl
ing at night, was not the sort of
summer vacation they'd relish.
But two years of staying on
the job, and in many cases prov
ing themselves better lookouts
than their male predecessors,
has won them loud huzzas from
district rangers from coast to
coast.
Women lookouts were par
ticularly outstanding" district

With a new and distinctive set
up, the 18th annual Evening Star
bowling tournament will open jan
uary 2 on all metropolitan Wash
ington mapleways and continue for
three weeks, under arrangements
completed yesterday The tourna-
ment, which pioneered War Bond
bowling, this time becomes the first
of major standing to be held in the
cause of the Bowlers' Victory Le-
gion.
Aim of the Bowlers' Victory Le-
gion, with headquarters here, is
to gather sl,000,000 among the Ma
tons bowlers to send sports and
recreation equipment to the United
States armed forces overseas and
to assist the Wings of Mercy pro-
gram of the Women's International
Bowling Congress for the purchase
of Army ambulance planes.
One important change over last
season has been made in the tour
nament. Only league games will be
counted where heretofore the event
has been open to nonleaguers. The
change was made in view Of a short
age of pin boys and to save time and
cost to the bowler plus an effort to
simplify handling of the giant affair.

NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-Frankie
Parker makes his twelfth consecutive
appearance in tennis top 10 today
but this time the veteran with the
much discussed forehand is ranked

Pauline Betz, red-haired shot
maker from Los Angeles, is No. l
