You would think that would be a question easily settled among United States army men. But it isn't. One veteran says the com mander of the guard does. An other says it is the corporal of the guard. Another veteran, with a record of 20 years' service in the regular army, says the cook wakes up the bugler. The last named veteran was on Corregi dor when the Japs took over and is a survivor of the Bataan Death March. Asking Queries from clients. Q. In the film, "Battleground," there is only one woman in the cast, Denise Darcel. Name six other plays or films with only one woman in the cast. A. You have me baffled, sir. All I can name fulfilling requirements you state are "What Price Glory?" "One Hundred Men and a Girl" and "Mr, Roberts." Q. Wasn't Camille Clifford, the stage beauty so pop ular in London for so many years, an American girl? A. You should not speak of Camille in the past tense. She is still around. She was born in Den mark but brought to the U. S. A. as a small child. She made her debut in 1902 at the Broadway theater, New York, as a chorus girl in the musical show "The Defender." I believe Blanche Ring was the star of this show. In 1904 Camille went to London and introduced a song titled "The Gibson Girl," became famous overnight and has been in Eng land ever since. She married very well and is well fixed fi nancially. Interested in the turf, she recently paid a record price for a yearling. Clvie tride How is your civic pride? What ii HiliiiiiHiiiiiiiiiiiMnr have you done to further the fame of your old home town or some of its products? A man with real civic pride was Col. Abe Slupsky of St. Louis. To bring the attention of the world to now delicious the beer brewed in St. Louis was. Colonel SlUD' sky drank 20 pints of St. Louis beer daily for 30 days. Incident ally, Colonel Slupsky's daughter married a man named Broadsky ana namea ner cluid blupsky BroadsKy. Greatest Regarding the argument as to who was the greatest all-time jockey in the history of the American turf, I am Inclined to believe It was Carol Shilling Yes, sir, the same Carol Shilling who recently died in poverty; starving, sick and deserted. The opinion regarding the greatness of this jockey is not my own. I never saw him ride. However, Sam Hildreth, in his autobiog raphy. "The Spell of the Turf?' said: "I never saw a better jockey man uaroi sniuing mat state ment coming from Sam Hildreth was really something. It was written after he had spent half a century on the American turf and had seen every great Amer ican jockey from Snapper Gar rison to Jiari banae. That Flea Am asked if I am familiar with a poem concerning "The Marry Bounding Flea." Certainly am. This classic was written by the distinguished actor, Roland Young. It follows: Here U the merry bounding flea. You cannot tell the he from she They are so much alike, you see. But she can tell and so can he, Sidelights "I saw it slated tlrat the word 'and' is used in the Bible 51,521 times," writes a Milwaukee sub scriber. "That's right. I counted them." What's the record for staying open of "open all night" drugstores? Petty's drugstore, Newark, N. J., has been' shut only twice in 66 years. Then only for an hour each time: first out of respect for passing of Edward retty, me stores tounaer; sec- In the Day's News ond at the time of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's death. Aside! The winners of the events at the ancient Olympic Games were exempted from paying taxes for the rest of their lives. Boy, that really was hitting the jackpot. . . , "A lisping lass is good to kiss." said John Ray. I'll have to take his word for It. I never knew a lisping lass that well. . . , Are you a poker enthusiast? How well do you know this grand old game? Do you realize that when you hold a pair and keep it with the hope of getting four of a kind that the odds against your so doing are 359 to 1? PROM here on out, every Presi- dent win nave to Keep on running until he is defeated or riipa in harness. Wp have already progressed that far toward the totalitarian state. THERE Is a new voice crying out in the Republican wilder ness. It Is that of Governor Al bert Dricoll, of New Jersey. Ad dressing the 64th Lincoln Day dinner of the National Republi can club in New York, he said: "The Republican party can of fer STABILITY as well as secur ity. . . This can be done by taking full care of those who want and need government programs and yet avoiding bigness in govern ment. . . Americans are now reaping the harvest of careless war and postwar promises, of trifling with communism, of fum bling with containment and of SyUANDEKINU UUK ASSM S. He then added: "A vital, liberal, progressive Republican party can promise the nation something better than government by expediency. I FIND that easy to agree with. a Personam'. I trunk the Repub lican party should say to the people: "Our first job as good Amer icans is to KEEP OUR NATION SOLVENT. We must balance our books. We must quit spending more than we are taking in. We must start to pay off our debt. Having started that, we must finish H." With that out of the way, the Republicans should then say: "At for sound social benefits we are FOR ALL OF THEM THAT CAN BE PAID FOR." SENATOR Morse, who is a Re publican but can't be accused of being a stand-patter, said in Pendleton the other night: "Our strongest defense weap on against Russia is not the atom or the hvdrogen bomb tJUi ECONOMY. . . . that is the No. 1 issue facine America. We must start thinking of economic trends AND WE MUST DO SOME THING ABOUT THIS DEFICIT SPENDING." I AM quoting from the teletype rerjort of Senator Morse's Pendleton talk. Because of news paper space limitations, it Isn't complete. But I imagine this is the message that the senator meant to convey: "IF WE BANKRUPT OUR SELVES BY CONTINUED RECKLESS SPENDING , WE SHALL BE PLAYING DIRECT LY INTO STALIN'S HANDS.' At any rate, that Is the cold and literal trutn. II we encour- Ace our colitlclans to go on spending our nation into bank duptcy, THE TIME WILL COME WHEN WE SHALL LIE HEIR LESS AT RUSSIA'S MERCY.
