Peter Kyne To Enlist
Oakland, Cal., June 22. (Special)
Peter B. Kyne, the noted short story
writer, is in a dilemma of duties. Pa
triotic urgtasrs call him to the colors
on one hand, but on the other is a
literary obligation that holds him
back. He is engaged on a novel which
his publishers are wiring for daily.
Just ns soon as Kyne gets the novel
off his typewriter, he is going to en
list. He hopes to be able to enter the
next reserve officers' training camp at
San Francisco Presidio in August.
When Kyne quits the pen for the
sword, he will be the guest of honor
at a banquet to be given by tho Oak
land Chamber of Commerce and will
be made an honorary member of that
organization. Plans are now under
way to make it .a gala military event
in this city.
Oakland claims Kyne as its own be
cause of his residence in one of the
suburbs on this side of the bay, and
also because much of the materiul for
his sea stories is drawn from Oak
land's waterfront. In this respect he
follows somewhat in the stops of the
i late Jack London, who
discovered
some of his most noted characters
along Oakland s docK3 in the days oi
the whalers.
Kyne will be no "rookie" when ho
dons khaki, for he soldiered in the
Philippines in the "lighting Four
teenth" while ho was still in his
beardless 'teens.
"I admit I lied about my age to get
into the regular airmy." Kyne says:
"but wild horses couldn't have kept
me away from that chase after
Aguinaldo. I feel a good deal the same
way about the Kaiser."
