This time he's in France taking the bows for the entire Allied forces, ducking the persistent attentions of the daughter of a French mayor and almost getting caught by nest of Nazis. It's Marion Hargrove, alias Robert Walker, at his funniest with added laughs from Keenan Wynn. that racketeering Private Mulvehill and Chill Wills, superintendent of the pick and shovel details.

Edgar beamed - and in stantly Mccarthy interrupted in q tone of funereal gloom. Not me" he said, i've lost my fall ward- :obep' AS I've pointed out before, Bergen is something of split per- sonality." He seldom thinks a thought for himself without think ing another for Charlie Re- member Anne Blythe, the Warner Brothers actress who lost good role in Danger Signal" when she suffered 8 broken back in a to- began accident? Despite the fact that she was bed-ridden for months and is still i n steel brace, she has improved her time.

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 2S.-No fac- tor entering into the box office re- ceptlon of movie is more unde- pendable than the bobby -soxers' re- action to leading men. The kids, by the simple technique of scream ing louder than anyone ever screamed before. have made them selves a tremendous power in show business, but to date no producer has been able to diagnose the mys- terious formula that calls forth the screams.
 No one-unless it were he, him. self-was more astonished than MGM bosses when Van Johnson be- came an overnight sensation. Co., lumbia, aiming its super musical, "A Song to Remember at the high brow adult trade, was flabbergasted when the 'teensters not only did nip-ups over Cornel Wilde but bought up all the Chopin record ing in Americas music stores.
 Two new Surprises" are now be- ing weighed by studio bosses. One IS Hurd Hatfield, who gained bobby soX status locally when Diary of a Chambermaid" was previewed. The other, even more astonishing, is Louis Hayward who, in pre- war days, had appeared in dozesn of films without causing more than ripple of interest. The producer of his current picture, Young Widow" sat back and waited for the preview cards (after that films sneak" showing) under the firm impression that fans would talk about Jane Russell. Instead, in came deluge of excited raves from the bobby-soxers about Louis Hayward
 The first man who learns how to accurately forecast the kids re- actions is cinch to make a for tune.

 ART OF W00ING
Due for Awakening Back Home After Successes
 with Foreign Females

LONDON, Sept. 27.-An anony- nous Army nurse declared in the letter column of Stars and Stripes today that American men had been spelled by their successes with the females of Europe" and were due for an awakening when they re- turned home.
 In view of these successes, where chewing gum has supplanted con versation, whefe chocolate bars have superseded a buildup, and where results are strictly on a ma terial basis, she wrote, ''the Ameri- cans are lcsing the art of wooing. The love market in the States will certainly not operate on the candy commodity basis.
 The American technique is dis integrating so rapidly that very shortly there will be no technique at all"
 At an officers party, she contin- ued, by 10 pm. every officer has made pass at me, which, though normally flattering, is so lacking in subtlety, originality and decep- tion as to be utterly repulsive."
 Enlisted men, she added, were the same.

 DEATH REVEALED
Court-martidI Records Are Seized . Judges Are
 War Criminals
By Richard Cushing

SHANGHAI, Sept. 27-The ashes of three Doolittle fliers who were executed by Japanese were recov- cred today, the U. s. War Grimes Commission disclosed, and severaI eyewitnesses told fresh stories ot the shooting in an old Chinese cemetery at the edge of Shanghai Oct. 15, 1942.
 Seizure earlier of court martial records which doomed the three Tokyo bombing fliers had afforded America proof that the. infuriated Japanese military had singled out the trio of airmen for discrimina- tory treatment.
 The Japanese government, in re- sponse to United States protests had contended that airmen were handled like all other prisoners of war.
 But the court martial papers showed the fliers, among the SC who raided Tokyo and other Jap anese cities April IS, 1922 under command of then Capt. James Doolittle, were tried on charges of violating military regulations re- garding aircraft crews
 It required only 30 minutes, with all proceedings in Japanese, to seal their fate.
 The seized document started a search for the trial judge, It. Col Nakajo Toyama, the prosecutor Hata Itsuro, and two minor judges as war criminals. S4
