AAF Combat Fliers
Plan to Keep Feet
Solidly On Ground
Fort Worth, Tex., -U.R A
spot check of AAF enlisted men
at Fort Worth Army Air Field
reveals that few combat fliers
have any desire to become post
war commercial fliers.
"I flew some 2,100 hours for
Uncle Sam, but I'll keep my feet
on the ground as far as com
mercial flving is concerned,"
said Tech. Sgt. Allan W. Hicks,
28, an Eighth Air Force veteran.
'I've had enough," was the
reaction of Staff Sgt. George W.
Walker, 25, another Eighth Air
Force veteran with 925 hours of
combat flying to his credit.
"Nuts to flying after the
war," was the comment of Staff
Set. Oscar L. Dodd, 20-year-old
veteran of the Fifteenth Air
Force with 550 hours of flying
time. "I'm interested in a new
automobile."
Set. Joseph J. Bolee, 27, vet
eran of the Pacific Theater, said
he's going back to work for the
Chicago post office "but I'd like
to fly if the post office gets
planes."

Altoona, Pa. U.R) A key
role as an antidotal agency for
aggressor nations' youth move
ments will be played by Girl
Scouts in the rehabilitation of
war-ravished countries.
Governments and diplomatic
officials everywhere are enthus
iastically supporting interna
tional organization of Girl
Scouts, according to Scout of
ficial Geraldine Howard, who
announced the World Associa
tion of Girl Guides and Girl
Scouts will meet in Switzerland
in November. It will be the
association's first meeting since
the beginning of the war.
Miss Howard cited unfailing
determination of European
scouting groups to reorganize
immediately after release from
axis oppression. "One of the
great sights in Paris, following
liberation, were the Girl Scouts
marching 20 deep down the
Champs Elysees. And the move
ment had doubled itself during
the German occupation and in
spite of German occupation!
"A full year before Mussolini
was deposed, the Italian Girl
Scouts began rebuilding their
organization. The first groups
met secretly in the Roman cata
combs, right under the noses of
the Fascist!.
"And when Queen Wilhelmina
returned to Holland, she was
met by Dutch Girl Guides, dress
ed in the uniforms they had
hidden and saved for years."
Schenectady, N. Y. (U.R)
Sunday is a special day for 16-year-old
Philip B. Clark of
Schenectady.
He sits in his home-made base
ment radio studio waiting for a
"cue" from the minister of Faith
Lutheran Church. When the
light flashes, young Clark spins
a turntable and organ music
fills the church from a wooden
loudspeaker behind the pulpit.
It Is the church's only source of
music.
When the area's youngest
licensed radio engineer was un
able to make up his mind
whether to make music or en
gineering his hobby, he decided
to combine the two.
Clark built the cellar radio
studio and control room. It is
about the size of an average
clothes press, contains a wooden
control panel, a turntable with
two speeds, and a large wooden
shelf for records.
In addition to supplying the
church with music, Clark also
furnishes "canned music" for
the family through loudspeaker
and radio connections through
out the house.
At times he even entertains
with "live music" from an or
gan. Clark built the organ about
two years ago. Materials used
Include toothpicks, a vacuum
cleaner and a keyboard from an
ancient organ.
The youthful engineer plays
by ear and apparently inherits
his talent for music from his
mother, who was once a singer.
His knack for puttering with
electrical apparatus probably
comes from his father, a General
Electric Co. engineer.
