On Playing
the Fiddle BcdIy

A favorite recreation in our town
is getting together in one or an
others home and making music.
There's somebody at the piano; \
guitar: u fiddle player; and Molly
Birtles even has harp.
What comes out isn't the best
music in the whole world. In fact,
a lot of it is downright bad. But
nobody even thinks to question or
10 criticize.
Because the spirit of harmony is
there-harmOny between folks who
like each others company. who cn-

with nothing more exciting than
old songs, and i glass of moderate
beer or cider.
From where / sit, it's a heap
more important to be poor fiddle
player, than not to play at all.
More important to be part of the
American scene-with its commit
nifty music, home entertainment,
friendly glass of beer - than to
hold out for professional perfec-
tion. (Besides, I like to play the

| Two Major Generals
Among 214 Officers
Reduced 10 CoIone|s

The Army has 214 fewer general
officers today as a result of demobili-
zation orders reducing that many
to the rank of either permanent or
temporary colonies. Many are men
with outstanding combat records.
Records disclose that 2O3 more
generals face similar demotions in
the next few months if the Army is
to reduce its general officer strength
from the wartime peak of 1850 to
the announced goal of 761 by July /
Two major generals were included
in the latest list, the remainder be-
ing temporary brigadier generals.
Forty three are on duty in or near
Washington.
Division Chief Reduced.
The major generals were Eugene
M. Landrum, infantry, former COM
mander of the Goth Infantry Divi-
sion in the European theater, and
Gilbert x. Cheves, commanding Off
Ger of Army Service Command "a in
the Pacific and former commander OF
the Services of Supply in the China
theater.
Gen. Landrum, now commander
at Camp MaXey, Tex, has reverted
to his permanent rank of colonel
Gen. Cheves, formerly a lieutenant
colonel of cavalry, reverts to tenn
porary colonelcy.
Brigadier generals to be reduced
include Frank A. Allen, who was
chief of the Public Relations Divi-
sion at headquarters in Paris at the
time of the German surrender. Gen.
Allen lives at 223l California street
NV.
Began as Lieutenant.
One of the A. A. F. brigadier
generals reduced to temporary
colonel was promoted during the
war from first lieutenant in the
Reserves. He is Edward N. Backus,
a member of the Secretary of Wars
Personnel Board in Washington,
who formerly commanded the 9th
Bomber Wing of the 9th Air Force
in Europe. His permanent rank,
as in the case of the others, re-
mains unchanged.
simultaneously with the Army
announcement, the Navy reported
creation of board headed by
Admiral William F. Halsey to recon-
mend for retirement rear admirals
and commodores who are in excess
of requirements for the postwar
Navy"
Along with Admiral Halsey, other
high ranking veterans of the sea
war will serve on the board, includ-
ing Admirals Raymond A Spruance,
Thomas c. Kinkaid, John H. Tow
ers and Marc A. Mitscher.

In Sonny Wisecarver Case
BY the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, Mar. 8.-Eleanor
Deveny, pretty 24-year-old mother
OF two children, walked arm-in arm
with her husband into court yester-

ing to the delinquency of Ellsworth

with the Army in Japan~last Novem-
Der, she and Sonny attended a
party in nearby Long Beach, ex-
cused themselves to go out for a
hamburger sandwich, and a few
days later were apprehended by
authorities in Northern California.
1t was the second time police had
stopped one of young Wisecarver's
romantic interludes. At IA, he and
Mrs. Elaine Monfredi, also a mother
of two, eloped to Yuma, Ariz. They
were returned from Denver, the
marriage annulled, and she was
placed on probation on a charge of
contributing to his delinquency.
Mrs. Deveny announced she
wanted the matter settled so she
could start anew with her husband.
She applied for probation and a
hearing was set for March %.
Wisecarver is in the custody of
