As EVERYBODY knows, bachelors
IA come equipped with carefree
attitudes, laundry problems and
little black books. In my own
salad days l was no exception to
this latter rule; in fact my little
black book is still with me to this
day. 1t has undergone a few modi-
fcations during the intervening
two decades. In fact. it's pretty
badly marked up with erasures
and scratchings out now.
MEMORY has dimmed a bit, but
can still remember that its origi-
nal contents circa 1927 went
something like this:
Betty 43ll
Dot 96l4
Bootsie 1887
Sue ALL
Fran 4034
Virginia 1914
A bit monotonous perhaps, as
reading matter, I'll admit. But a
nice little book, all the same. Then
came the day when got engaged.
This produced a slight alteration
in contents:
Virginia 1914
As you can see, during this peri
cd the book was almost stark in
its simplicity. Then we got mar
ried. A new transformation took
place; my little black book was
now the phone-memo list for a
gay, carefree, childless young cou-
pie who liked to play bridge:
Bijou Theatre 6625
Fairhaven Country
Club 44l1
Lakeside Ballroom 1876
Manardo'S Restaurant 6837

Whatever happened to Betty, Dot, BOOtsie?
Here's a tale told by little black book

We've been married pretty nearly
twenty years now, and any expert

little black book today would have
no trouble figuring out my status.
The entries aren't as glamorous

they're practical. There's not a
bit of useless froth in that book as
it stands today.

Veterans and
Druftees
By Moi. Thomos M. Mol


From T. E. s. Of New York
City: I'm a Korean veteran
released from active duty about
two months ago. I didn't notice
it until I got home, but my re-
port Of separation only credited
me with three months overseas
duty. Actually I served 13
months overseas in Korea with
the Army. How may get this
error corrected?"
Any Army veteran may apply
to the Adjutant General, Depart
ment Of the Army, Washington
IS. D. c., to have an error cor
rected on any of his records.
From p. c. Of Louisville, KY:
II read some time ago that the
Army wasn't going to send men
overseas If they had less than
nine months to serve. My son,
a draftee, has eight and one
half months left and has been
told he's headed for Korea.
What's the story on thiS?"
Unle& the Army considers
your sons case to be an excep-
ton to this rule, he should not
be sent overseas. I suggest you
write your son Immediately and
have him see his commanding
officer. There may be a mis-
take.
From j. M. of Grand Island,
Nebr.: MY son will be released
from active duty in about two
months. Are there any laws
which require his former en-
ployer to give him his job back?"
If your son left a permanent
position with a private employer
and wants to go back after serv-
ing satisfactorily with the
United States armed forces, he
must be re-employed If he can
still do the job and applies for
it within 80 days after he's re-
lieved from active duty. That's
the gist of the unemployment
rights found in the Universal
Military Training and Service
Act of 1851. There are certain
exceptions and conditions which
apply to unusual cases, however.
If your son has an unusual sit
uation, suggest he talk to the
veterans officer at the nearest
United States Employment Serv-
ice Office.
From T. C. O. Of Birmingham,
Ala: I've been thinking Of en-
listing in one Of the services.
What are the age require
ments?"
Air Force and Army: II to IS.
Marine Corps: II to 20. Navy:
II to 81. Men below 18 must
have the consent of parents or
guardians to sign up in any
service.
From Mrs. D. M. of Wichita,
Kans.: MY son registered for
the draft last month. He Is in
his third year of high school.
Will he be allowed to finish
School?"
Your son, when he is classified,
should be put in class is. This
means that he will be draft de-
ferred until he does one of these
things:
i. Becomes 20 years.
2. Graduates.
3. Fails to do satisfactorily in
school.
From T. Y. Of Monroe, Mich:
~My son recently enlisted in the
Army for four years. He is now
in Germany. How long will he
have to stay there?"
Under normal circumstances
he'll be expected to remain in
Europe 36 months. That's the
normal tour Of duty.

TODAY'S
STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, R-The stock mar.
ket was mixed today with steels
active and higher.
Activity in the Steels was high
lighted by the strength of Republic
Steel based on its fine third quar-
ter earnings report.

third quarter equal to $3.50 a share
as compared with 81 cents q share
a year ago, and the first nine
months came to S7.02 as against

the previous year.
Throughout the market, gains
and losses were held down to

tons.
Going up along with the steels
were the motors and some utilities.
Other sections Of the market were

USS DAVIS ASKS FUNDS

CONTINUED from rage One)
good Lord willing, we are going
to hold a benefit at the Seaplane
Base Hangar to raise money for
the Foster Parents Plan for War
Children Inc. You nay may Won
der why. Let US try to explain.
A year ago, we adopted a young
Italian war orphan named Maria
Carmela La Vecchi under the
Foster Parents Plan. It was purely
financial adoption. We donated
$4,000 to the Foster Parents and
they found US a child in need Of
help. We were operating out OF
Key West, at the time.
We sounded out the Navy In
Washington and they felt that they
could probably help US with a plane
to fly the celebrities to and from
New York. Due to the fact that we
were so late in contracting the cele.
brities we had to make the trip
easy for them 49, after all. they
were being invited TO come down
for free. So we wrote to them, tell
ing them we would furnish free
transportation, to and from New
York.
Late last week, we heard from
the Navy. No plane! Primarily be.
cause It was not a benefit for the
Navy and because we are opening
lup the Seaplane Base to everyone
in Key West. II we hadn't done
the latter, we might have gotten
the plane under the pretext that
the celebrities would be entertain
ing sailors who don't have q chance
to see very much good live talent.
Now we have to charter a plane.
And because Of the time element
- the show coming eff In 10 days,
we need money right now. We've
raised some of the money, but not
nearly the amount we will need
- FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS!
But don't let this figure brighten
you. II viii be raised somehow.
Any little bit you can give will
help. OF course, the more you
give, the sooner we viii be able to
charter the plane.
Thank You.
