 Joel McCrea, credits Clark Gable with having started him on his sue cessful acting career.
 It was back in 1928 when Gable was working as an extra in The Fair Co-Ed," a silent picture star ring Marion Davies, with many of it's scenes filmed on the Pomona College campus. McCrea, then a Pomona student, was watching the filming when Gable urged him to mix in with the extras on the theory that it was a better job than the newspaper route which McCrea was then running to help pay his college expenses.
 McCrea took the advice, became an extra, and within a short time graduated to leading roles and star dom. With Stars in Nv Crown" he celebrates his twenty-firsr anni- versary in motion pictures.

LONGTIME FRIEND OF ALASKA CONTRIBUTES
 TO LOCAL RED CROSS

The Juneau Chapter of the Am erican Red Cross is the recipient of a contribution of $15 to be included in it's annual drive fund from Mrs. M. E. L. Gam, 84 year old world traveller residing at present in AL berquerque, N, M.
 Mrs. Gam has made the world her home since the year following the First World War and has made several trips to Alaska. She made long visits in several different years with the Goddard family when they owned the Goddard Hot Springs near Sitka, and made many friends in Southeast Alaska.
 Each year she has made con- tribution to the local Red Cross Chapter but this year she wrote her old friend, Mrs. A. F. Ghiglione of Juneau that she was increasing her contribution because while she prays it will never be needed to aid in case of disaster, in these present trying times there is the possibility of need and she wants to feel that she has in some way helped her old friends.
 Mrs. Ghiglione met Mrs. Gam nearly 20 years ago in Yellowstone Park shortly before she was leaving for one of her visits to Alaska. She said today that Mrs. Gam Las each year contributed to the local chap ters of the Red Cross in various parts of the states where she has made close friends.

his boards would, tend to defer the
recently married man who be-
comes a prospective father. He
added:
II believe our boards feel be-
cause a young life is coming
along, there should be no penalty
I think they are very sympathetic
TO pregnant wives of young hus-
bands, even if they married since
Korea"
Hershey Stand Clear.
Gen. Hershey made his position
clear in bulletin to draft boards
last October, when he said they
did not have to reopen" the case
of man married after he was
classified la. He wrapped UP
his feeling this way:
THE director has seen no occa-
sion to attempt to do what the
law and the regulations do not
do, that is. to set a deadline after
which marriages may not be con-
sidered; neither has he said that
marital status acquired regardless
of time or circumstances is per
Sc grounds for deferment."
If, as expected, the new White
House order is approved. it will
clear up the status of husbands.
But, officials agree, it we'll may
not clear the confusion of pros
pective fathers over their status.

Survey Of Air Potential
Slated in Defense PLANNING
Draft of Order Studied.

| Washington is going to survey
its "air potential in connection
with plans for defense.
This was announced yesterday
by Maynard H. Smith, commander
of Cardinal Squadron of the Air
Force Association. During the
next few months, the squadron
will conduct a survey of local
aviation assets, as part Of Ma
tion-wide inventory.
Findings from all over the coun-
try will be sent to Washington,
where committee of civilians
and Government officials will
study them. They then will COM
pile a "yardstick" for measuring
the comparative relationship of
aviation activity among communi-
ties.
Evening star., 1951-02-11

For example. Col. Henry c.
Stanwood, Maryland draft direc-
tor, said many of his boards are
going to quite some extremes"
to give recent husbands a chance
to prove their marriage did not
result from their enhanced
chances of being drafted. Evi-
dence of long engagements before
last June, for example. would be
one type of evidence" he said.
But he added that most of our
boards have applied the yardstick
that if Ia man married after
June Is he did it in the face of
perfectly evident situation"
Col. Asher w. Harman, Vir-
ginia director, said some draft
boards want specific marital
deadline to be set, but that none
has been.
Apparently there is more con-
fusion about the status of the
la youth married since last June
who reports that his wife has
become pregnant.
Frank D.. Norton, the Districts
deputy draft chief, said he could
not say lone way or the other"
what the policy of the city's
boards is.
Col. Harman said he would tell
the Virginia boards they would
have to use their own discretion.

Draft of Order Studied.
President Truman has not yet
ordered the husband draft. But
Selective Service Director Lewis
IB. Hershey has begun to circu-
late among top Federal officials
a proposed order to call up about
100000 childless non-veterans who
have only one dependent. In
addition, strong impetus for the
move has come from both sides
of Capitol Hill.
Basis of most confusion in the
husband draft proposal is what
to do about the husband whose
wife becomes pregnant at a time
he is earmarked for service.
Under present plans. according
to officials. the order would rec
ognize parenthood if wife were
pregnant. But there would be no
deadline on when-if ever-draft
boards should stop recognizing the
date of conception in drafting
husbands. And, these officials
feel, different interpretations on
this point by the draft boards will
result inevitably in widely differ
ent standards.
Knotty Manpower Problems.
This situation. many officials
feel. may send draft boards back
to one of the knottiest manpower
problems they faced during World
War II.
During the early part of the
war, boards were told not to defer
men if it appeared they got de-
pendents to avoid the draft. Later.
they were told not to defer men
who got dependents after their
inductions appeared Imminent" ;"
To meet this. draft boards set up
their own yardsticks and, often
within the same city, different
standards applied. Finally, in
December, 1943. draft headquar-
ters ruled that a father" should
count" only if he were married
before Pearl Harbor and had his
child by September Is, 1912
about nine months later.
AS a prelude to the husband
draft problem this situation al
ready has developed:
Draft officials in the District,
Maryland and Virginia told The
Star some of their boards are
calling up eligible la men who
got married after the Korean out
break last June. But the cases
are left up to individual boards.
and many have applied their own
yardsticks.
Evening star., 1951-02-11

appeals alreacy have begun to
come in from recently married
men ordered for induction. BY
and large. he said. the board has
backed up the local draft boards.
The main reason for this, he
added. is that the board. along
with Gen. Hershey, regards that
it is not mandatory for a board
to reopen a case" of man al
ready in Ia.
Other officials said a main rea-
son why Gen. Hershey is reluc-
tant. to set dependency dead
line" is that he fears it would
take away from local boards too
much of the selection by neigh
bors" principal which is inherent
in the draft setup. The draft chief,
these officials said, feels local
boards are best fitted to rule on
questions of hardship and other
factors involved.
"The strength of selective serv-
ice is non-uniformity," one high
official added. Because if there
was uniformity throughout the
country, we wouldn't need draft
boards. A clerk could order men
into uniform.
