lunching with a friend in a restau-

Caruso jumped up to leave, but

sit down again. The friend called

For the visitors, Sword was the

to the professional game between
the Chicago Bears and the Los An

put up three goal-line stands in the
last half, On all three occasions,
the Bears got inside the Los An
geles 1O-yard line-once they got
down to three-but because they
were SO far behind, field goals
wouldn't help and they had to go for
the touchdowns But on each occa-
sion, the Rams stopped them cold
and that's something you don't often

there has always been a natural

CHICAGO, Dec. 25.-Dr. Walter
Alvarez. a noted physician, was
listening intently in the Office of a
business man who was making one
telephone decision after another
involving vast sums of money.
He later expressed his admira-
ton. The executive explained he
couldn't afford to put off decisions
because tomorrow would bring
new problems and If he permitted
them to pile up, he'd worry him
self into a nervous breakdown.
OF course, he said, he made mis-
takes. but if he guessed right so

ahead and healthy.
"As I saw this man make quick
decisions and then turn cheerfully
to the next task, I thought how
wonderful it would be If my pa
tientS could learn the trick" DR.
Alvarez remarked.
The inability to face up to q
problem and give a prompt de-
cision is the earmark of a worrier

DR.. Alvarez continued.
"a man in an uncomfortable job
should either leave it or advance
himself. II handicapped by lack OF
education, he could get it from
extension courses or correspond
Ience."
Chronic worriers usually get
tense over everything they do.
They have a tendency to look
ahead too far, to try to finish
things too fast and do more than
one thing at a time.
II remember a doctor who used
to get demoralized whenever he
knew that many persons were
in his waiting ROOM" DR.. Alvarez
said.
Similarly, ! knew a bank teller
who would go to pieces whenever
he saw several persons in line ir

Master Sergeant Saw
Action in -Four Wars
But Can Trim Tree
By Serst. Connie Sellers


FORT JACKSON, S. c., Tec
l25.-Gold overseas stripes on his
sleeve glinted against the green
of the Christmas tree. Ribbons on
his chest were as varied and color
full as the tinsel ornaments.
No soldier wisecracked about
the incengruity of the tall. gray
haired sergeant gently hanging
fragile bulbs on the tree.
Master Sergt. John H. Wintrode
of st. Petersburg, Fla, is respected
in the 9th Infantry Division at
Fort Jackson, S. G. After all, not
many soldiers alive today have
fought in four wars, and not many
wear the Distinguished Service
Cross, the Nations second high
est award for valor.
Ribbons Tell History.
Sergt. Wintrode's medals and
campaign ribbons read like the
military history of the United
States since 1916. In addition to
the D. S. c., he wears the Silver
and Bronze Stars with "V" and
cluster, both for valor, and the
Purple Heart.
He was with Gen. John CBlack-
Ijack") Pershing in the campaign
across the Mexican border against
Pancho Villa.
Time-honored names. such as
st. Mihiel. the Argonne, Cham

he was awarded the d. S. c. for
carrying on an attack after all
officers in his unit had been
killed. and Lorraine (where he
earned the Purple Heart for
wounds) carrying memories. He
served with the 42nd (Rainbow)
Division under the then Brig.
Gen. Douglas Macarthur.
Only Dates Different
Europe was familiar ground to
Sgt. Wintrode when he covered it
for the second time as q combat
infantryman. Only the dates were
different-dates and names such
as Normandy. Britanny, and Mum
ich (where he earned the Bronze
Starr.
The enemy was the same-the
Germans. The division was the
|same-the old And.
Despite his 50-odd years, Sergt.
Winthrode was there with the
1st Division. sent from the United
States after the outbreak of the
Korean fighting. He was there
during the vicious, last-ditch bat
ties along the Naktong River, in
1850. and he truged out of the
North Korean death trap at Kunu-
Ri last December with the End

er men fell by the wayside.
He was with them when the

Home on Rotation.
He saw the bloody vengence Of
the May massacre" when his
division slaughtered some $4,000
Chinese and North Koreans in a

Under the rotation policy, Sergt.
Wintrode came home from q war
for the fourth time.

Wintrode helps to train new troops
