Ann Arbor Man
Tells Experiences

Pfc. Philo II. Budlong. former
resident OF Ann Armor, after
months in Army hospitals, has re
turned to this country and visited
here briefly before going to De
Tour to- visit his parents.
Serving in Belgium and Ger
many with the Ninth Army. he was
wounded and taken prisoner by the
Germans at the Ruhr River. He
and nine companions were on q
patrol to breach enemy mine fields
in the German side OF the river
AS they reached the enemy side, q
machine gun crew Whom | knew
very we'll was matching US all the
time" opened up. The nine Others
were killed in the water. and Pfc
Buildings right arm was shattered
by the fire. After lying In the wat
er a few minutes, he threw a hand
grenade with his left arm into the
nest some Is yards away. That
proved a mistake, because the Ger
mans who had thought him dead,
now began to throw potato mash
ers" at him. Some landed as near
as Ave fleet away, but the water
cushioned the shock, although the
explosions were like getting kick
ed In the stomach.
After awhile the German medics
came out and got him.
There were two things that sur
prised me-" he said. First that
was still alive. and secondly how
well I was treated by the Germans,
Their needles were as good to me a.
our own" or course. you must
remember, these boys knew that
in few days they would be our
prisoners"
II injured two Of their men with
my grenade, and we sat around
while recovering from our wounds,
playing checkers. The nurses used
to kid us about trying to kill each
other. then playing checkers.
After a while | was token TO q
prison camp. There the food was
nothing to brag about. bat I have
eaten worse. A battery OF SIS were
next to the camp and from the
speed they fred, we assumed that
they were merely shooting without
a target. Just so the ammunition
would not be captured. It seemed
impossible that guns could be train
ed and fired so fast. Days later
we learned they were firing on a
cross road, and had held an entire
company of Americans pinned
down. Their communication wire
ran right by the compound. Every
so often one Of the prisoners would
ask the guard II he could take q
walk, and would be granted per-
mission. The prisoner would go
out and cut the artillery's wire. A
few minutes. and they would be
around to repair II. As soon as the
repairman was out Of sight, anoth-
er Of the boys would steal about ten
feet OF the wire. So It went, for
days.
Our camp was not so bad, but
some of the boys in other camps
had a rugged time. II all depend
ed upon the commanding officer"

Sights and sounds: That old
publicity wheeze about the studio
gateman failing to recognize the
star got a new twist, and a very
serious one, over the week end when
Victor Fleming, scheduled to direct
Clark Gables comeback picture
This Strange Adventure, walked
of the MGM lot after a tiff with
one of those glass-eyed gents in uni
form who guard the portals.
The fracas, which may result in
MING being forced to draw upon
another director for this big picture,
is unprecedented in HOLLYWOOD s
fantastically tempermental history
AS the story goes, Fleming walked
up to the main gate, nodded to the
presiding cop whom he has known
for years, and started to pass
through. He was stopped and asked
for his pass.
IF you don't know me here after
20 years you'll never know me-"
Fleming said.
The cop retorted that he had new
orders declaring that he must see
everybody's written pass and Flem-
was no exception.
Fleming, who also wrote much of
This Strange Adventure" and who
directed Gable, his pal, in Gone
With The Wind" turned on his
heel, walked to his automobile and
drove to Balboa, 80 miles away. And
that's where he is at last reports.
Gable and Greer Carson, his lead
ing lady, and all members of the
cast are on hand and ready to start
the picture-when either a new
director is assigned or Fleming de.
cides to come in and show his pas.

Gable was in vigorous training
more than two years as a combat
flyer and flew several missions over
Berlin without receiving a scratch.
1t remained for Los Angeles traffic
to get him, as it does thousands
every year.
Gables ribs are not taped up and
they won't interfere with his early
scenes in the film. which are not
physically taxing. Later on he must
be in good condition because there
are several heavy-action sequences.
Clark says he isn't superstitious,
but right after the accident he sold
the car which he was driving. It
was the third mishap in which the
car had involved him, so he took no
further chances.

take Paramount or leave it alone
Now she thinks of it with unfriend-
illness, if not downright animus
That Is to say she is not comfortable
In her mind when her mind is occu-
pied with thoughts of that studio
Their relations are in court, if you
did not already know that.
It began when Miss Skinner and
her friend, Emily Kimbrough, look
ing back on their giddy youth few
years ago, wrote nimbly humorous
book about it called "Our Hearts
Were Young and Gay" Paramount,
a voracious studio which cannot
resist popular book, snapped 1t
up and made picture of it.
Miss Skinner did not mind that,
as what author would, but she was
subsequently panied to discover that
Paramount assumed that it had not
only purchased the story OF her
youth, but the right to use a char
acter called Cornelia Otis Skinner
in any sequel 1T might care to write.
THE possibilities of that" Miss
Skinner says ruefully, well, they're
enormous.
Her three listeners had no trouble
at all seeing that.
X
Miss Skinner, in the best tradition
of a descendant of Otis Skinner, is
determined to obliterate even the
most innocent of the possibilities OF
Paramounts literary intentions on
that score. She and her husband,
another aggressive character in a
patrician way, we should guess, are
fighting the studio all the way to the
Supreme Court.
1t gives them a wry feeling to
think that a movie studio can take
a human life, name and all, and

X X x X
One reason why Paramount can
not kid Miss Skinner on that score
is that she has discovered an en-
tirely new fan element since the
picture based upon Our Hearts
Were Young and Gay"
'It is sort of like Sinatra," Miss
Skinner says. 'The bobby socks set
discovered me in the picture. Ever
since the release of the picture they
have been coming up to ask me
questions about it. Most of them
want to know whatever became OF
Tom Newhall."

evoked by some of the autobiography
ical pieces she has written for such
publications as the New Yorker
The New Yorker takes a realistic
attitude toward certain common hu-

conformed to its policy by dealing
frankly with moments she has lived
