Tanks Crumble Southern Okinawa Enemy Defenses

GUAM, June l. (P) United States Tenth Army divisions are killing more than one thousand Japanese daily and have crumbled the last formidable core of the enemy defenses across southern Okinawa yesterday in a general assault which gained up to twelve hundred yards and virtually pinched off Shuri.
 The fall of Mana on the west coast and Yonabaru on the east had left only Shuri in the center for practical purposes to the Jap anese.
 First Marine Division patrols, advancing yesterday through the wrecked city of Shuri were within sight of westbound forward ele- ments of the Ninety-Sixth infan- try division; thus one encircle- ment has virtually been com- pleted around any enemy troops within Shuri's boundaries and an- other is forming more than a mile to the south.
 Today's fleet communique, in disclosing the successes, listed 61,519 Japanese dead in the cam

Many delegates are saying pri- vately that the time for action to that end is a hand and the place to begin is among the Big Five.
 United States sought an agree ment among British, Russian, Chi nese and French spokesmen on half a dozen pending questions.
 An early meeting of Stettinius and the other four delegation chiefs is expected. Moscow reac- tion to the proposed Big Five statement of the veto voting issue is expected in a day or so.
 The statement is intended to re- assure the small nations that big power veto couldn't be used to prevent their getting at least a preliminary hearing before the prospective world security council.

Friendly Tip TO Lana:
Meep Turhan Away
from Gloria Jean
HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 20.

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 20.
Hey. Lana! This is just q
friendly tip, but it might not
be a bad idea to warn your
boy friend. Turhan Bey, TO
keep away from Gloria Jean.
In case you don't know II,
Gloria Is a grown girl now. 18.
to be exact. and she and Turhan
work on the Universal lot.
But to give you an idea OF
what I mean about Gloria and
Turhan and about her being
grown up. here's what she said
when I asked how il feels TO be
a young lady.
I'D like ever so much 20 play
opposite Turhan Bey," she said.
"Of course, we're good friends
and all that, but for some rea-
son I always give him n second
glance whenever i pass him.
How about that, Lana?

A Kid No lonqer

But to give you better idea
Of how Gloria Jean has sprung
up, consider the case OF Kirby
Grant. Before she and Grant
were about to go into her first
movie love scene tn Easy to
Look At" he was the soul Of
consideration. He explained their
scene in detail in order TO help
her not TO be embarrassed when
the camera started turning. But
when the scene was completed
and on celluloid, Kirby literally
gasped.
lit wasn't at all bad and GER
tainly not embarrassing, COM
mcnted Gloria laConically. And
you no longer hear Grant refer
ring TO her around the Universal
lot as a cute kid. -
AS a matter OF fact, Gloria
doesn't mind telling you She has
given a thought or two 20 the
kind Of man she expects to
marry.
Believe me-" she said, ~
have no preiudices against
actors as husbands, either. The
truth Is, actors fascinate me"
But just for consolation.
Lana. Gloria says she is not
going to do anything about
romance for the duration. She
says she's being true TO gang
Of lads in the Pacific. She fur
ther confessed she spends at
least three nights a week writ
ing TO them. That really shows
she's hep to the right kind Of
~.ay, all right, and that she's
lly grown up.

Keen Eye for Males

a lot OF people are going To
be surprised when they see
Gloria in her most recent film,
Easy 10 Look AIS She's all
that the title implies. and it's
hard TO recall her as the cute
kid who was only u when she
won her cinema spurs in The
"Underpup" six years ago.
Although completely unspoiled
and one OF the bcst-mannered
young ladies in Hollywood. she
has a keen eye i'm appraiSing the
opposite sex. To be specific,
She likes the continental type.
And. of course, that includes
Turhan.
Now you take MIR. Boyer"
Gloria got down TO cases. II

Mc and he didn't particularly
breas me because he WAS
dressed In an old solled shirt for
his role. but one day ne came
