sent for us. He said the men needed us, and he intended to see that we got to the men.
 Flew Into The Wilds
 We did, believe me. We travelled by everything from plane to the tropics afford. With cigarettes PIT boat, into every sort of place we hired natives to cut banana palms out from under our jeep, we found bugs in our piano, and Ed die McArthur, who had learned to play an accordian to take care of the places without pianos, used to have to separate the bellows, leaf by leaf, be fore he started. It was that damp and sticky"
 The Hatfield -McArthur combi- nation went at their job little differently. Usually Hatfield sang a group of songs, more or less important" depending on the tenn per of the audience. Then the team would start something like Irish Eyes Are Smiling and by the time the refrain had arrived, some of the boys would be sing ing. It went on from there
 Lords Prayer Favorite
 There was talent all over the place." says Hatfield. We could
The Daily Alaska empire., 1944-01-17

usually get the names of some boys who did things, and in the second part of our show we'd call them up Usually they came and loved it. Once we called on a colonel, and he sang well. We had spoon play CT, dancers, everything. The boys would call for their favorites, and somehow McArthur and I would do them. Even if we didn't know them, we managed somehow.
 One of the things they wanted again and again was The Lords Prayer. One officer demanded Danny Boy He said his grand mother used to sing him to sleep with it, and he wanted to know how it ended And there was the fellow in the hospital. He was dying, and he wanted Ave Maria He got it, but I wouldn's say it was very steady performance on my part"
 Hatfield and McArthur often sang as many as dozen programs a day-hospital shows in the morn ing, and afternoon and night shows for the troops Three-quarters of the time they had pianos, often good ones, Hatfield says, although some were full of bugs and small grass snakes

SOLDIERS TUNE up VOICES AT
 TIME OF DUSK
BY JOHN SELBY AP Art Editor

NEW YORK-Soldiers won't sing in daylight, Lansing Hatfield says after six months of singing to and with service men in the Southwest ern Pacific.
 "At night they can't be kept from singing he adds, but self-con- sciousness or something gets into their vocal cords in daylight"
 The young baritone, with pianist Edwin McArthur, was sent to the South Pacific something over six months ago, and the idea was that they would organize soldiers enter tainments and shows and whatnot.
 Tt didn't work" Hatfield de- clares. There wasn't time, condi- tions were bad, men were too scat tered. We were a little discouraged when one day Genera MacArthcl
The Daily Alaska empire., 1944-01-17

odd things happened, too. Once a delegation of negro troops came up to ask Hatfield not to sing "Ol' Man River" They disapproved. And in Australia, where MacAr- thur conducted three formal sym phony concerts with Hatfield as soloist, General MacArthur's little boy broke away from his mother at a rehearsal, reached the stage, and demanded to be shown all the in- struments that represented the characters in Prokofieff's Peter and the Wolf"
 Hatfield was to blame for that. He had given the boy the records of Peter and the Wolf"

NATIVES OF ALASKA BUY
 MANY BONDS
Record for Year Ending December 31 Is
 Excellent

The Indians, Aleuts and Eskimo: of Alaska have been more than do ing their part in the purchase o1 War Bonds, according to records made available from the Alaska Of flee of Indian Affairs.
 i As of the last of the year l943 ! Natives of the Territory had pur- chased about $16l,2 through the Juneau office, alone, and if figures on the total amount purchased by these people at all points through out the Territory were available this amount would probably be much larger
 But that amount, alone, would purchase about six amphibian steel tractors such as the fighting men Of the United States are using in storming and regaining islands held by the Japs in the Pacific.
 Communities Listed
 About S125,00 worth of collective bonds have been purchased through the Juneau office, and purchases by communities include:
 Atka, $550; Gambell, S3,200; Kla- wack, $4,000: Solomon, $l00; Burn cit Inlet (Unalaska), $2,875; Shis- mareff, S70O; Fishooktown, $25; Ga- lena, S350; Holikachuk, S950; Kan atak, $250; Karluk, $5,325; Kiana, Sl00; King Cove, S1,625: King Is- land, S2,550; Kokrines, $500; Xvii gillingok, $50; Nunachuk, $50; Nunapitchuk, 1925; Point Hope, s1,oOO; Sand Point, s250; Shageluk, $125: Seyoonga, $l0,275; Tyonek, S1o0.
 Most of these purchases have been made at great sacrifice. One buyer. crippled carving instruc- tor, earns $20 a month for nine months of the year and supports three children, yet he bought $50 bCnd
 Here's Sacrifice
 One person, alone, was respon- sible for getting the name of Fish oCktown in the list. This woman, Hannah Moses Peter. mother of 10 children, the oldest aged II, earned the money by trapping. Writes the Indian Office teacher: T wish you could have seen the light in their faces when they brought me the money, and heard Hannah remark that now she could start saving for another bond. Knowing the circum- stances of this family ant what a sacrifice this bond meant, I was touched almost to the point of tears. Yet I wanted to hurl defiance in the face of the Axis leaders, because ia nation is as strong as it's weak est, and as long as what might be called our weakest are people like these we are bound to come out on top!"

Originally, the school was estab-

and a group OF so enlisted men be-

Eents proved so exacting that an

resulted.
Intent on measuring the men TO
the job and not the Job 10 the man,
AAF officials hand-picked an all
officer class and moved II with the
school 10 Salina, Kan, in July OF
last year. Since that time, re-ac-
ceptance OF especially qualified en-
listed men has been effected and
the training site has been changed
again, this time TO its present loca-
ton at Lowry Field.

Applicants must pass stringent
interviews, be no older than Is,

ing, the student is introduced 10
cruise planning, In which he
takes paper and pencil in hand
and, with the aid OF graphs, charts,
slide rules and the like, plots out
an actual mission.
A primary consideration OF this
planning is his big responsibility
as a flight engineer the deliver
ance Of the maximum pay-load Of
bombs on a given objective.
Sources of questions enter into
this consideration. Among them
are the amount Of fuel the mission
will require, the power setting the
flight calls for, the mechanical con-
dition OF the plane and whether it
can be turned over TO the pilot
without qualms, the weather. and
other such technical problems.
Along with cruise planning in
these last i've weeks comes the
knotty topic OF cruise control, de-
fined, briefly, as ''the scientific
application OF power best suited to
the conditions under which a par
ticular flight is made"
Must Know All the Answers
Here, again, the flight engineer
must take up paper and pencil,
slide rules. engineering tables and
graphs and determine in advance:
What length Of runway will | need
with a given load? What is the
speed OF optimum climb? What is
the most effective altitude TO be
flown? What manifold pressure
setting and RPMs will be requir-
ed to attain that altitude? What
setting and RPM changes are nee
essary to attain the desired speed
before and after the release ot
the bombsY What about the air
temperatures, the head wind, and
the gas supply to make an alter
nate airport? And-a grim ques-
ton many will face-how long can
| stay with the formation before
dropping out because OF engine
trouble?
The eight engineer must know
all these things, and more. A
slip-up OF judgment on his part
may mean not only the failure OF
mission but also the loss OF up,
wards to a million dollars worth OF
equipment and maybe the lives OF
his comrades.
Faced with the heavy responsible
lily OF training men to meet these
conditions, school officials are noI
hesitant for one instant in elimin-
ating a student who, in their opin-
ion, will not meet the course stand
ards.
Almost every man would give
his eye teeth TO get his wings"
one officer said, but, even so, some
realize they must sacrifice person
