men of the fishing boat White
Eagle thought they had made a

to brag about.
It was an aerial depth charge
containing 30 pounds of high
explosives.
The White Eagle made full
speed to Blaine where a hurried
call was made to the bomb dis
posal officer of the 13th Naval
district in Seattle. The Navy
crew arrived and exploded the
depth charge in a large gravel
Pit.

Washington (U.R) A little

knelt before the tomb, crossed
herself and

Is one of the

before the
tomb of the

Unknown Soldier at Arlington
Cemetery.
There are 168 volunteer en
listed men assigned to the task
and come snow, ram, sleet, or
high wind they keep a 24-hour
vigil every day In every .year.
The men put tnetr neart in
their work and are proud of
their assignment.
Pfc. Monte Bristow, Shepards-
vllle, Ky., summed it up for the
rest when he said; .
"That fellow out there repre
sents the Army and the Ameri
can people respect. The folks
who come out here don't come
out to sightsee. They come to
pay homage to a symbol of our
country. Every day is Memorial
Day before that tomb over
there."
The private took off his white
gloves and pointed to the inscrip

some opera
star is back In

20th Century
Aline Mosby Fox studio, to
portray another opera singer in
a long-hair music movie, "To

This time he sings opera and
doesn't kiss any curvy movie
queens. '
But he's "happier," he says,
than he was imported by MGM
as the greatest wooer on cellu
loid after his stage success in
"South Pacific."
Neither critics nor ticket buy
ers turned handsprings over
Pinza's "Mr. Imperium and
"Strictly Dishonorable."
Stories Unbelievable
"The stories were unbeliev
able," Pinza shrugged. "If you
are not capable of catching an
audience by the throat you don't
do anything.
"In 'Mr. Imperium' I was sup
posed to send a friend to Lnna
Turner's dressing room to ask
her for. a date with me. Their
love in the picture was too philo

March for One Hour -
During the daytime the sol
diers pace up and down a short
ramp in front of the tomb. They
march for one hour and are off
the next three. At each end they
halt, make a half-turn . to face
the tomb, click their heels and
bring their rifles up smartly to
port arms. Then they count
slowly to 20, pause a second and
count to 20 again. Then they
do an about face and return to
the other end and repeat the
performance. Only one man 1
marches at a time.
During the night, the corps
Is on for two hours and off four.
There are three shifts.
Soldiers Well Screened
o All the men are from Com
pany A, Fort Myer, Va., mem
bers of the Third Infantry regi
ment. The soldiers are well screened.
They volunteer for the assign
ments. They must not be over five
feet 11 Inches tall. They're fine
looking boys, slender but mus
cular. Their carriage, of course,
is precise.
"While on duty, out of re
spect for the dead, we are not
allowed to speak to anyone,"

Youngstown, O.
"Most people have enough re
spect not to speak to us."

to base the movies on that. You'd
think all I'd ever done was sing
'Some Enchanted Evening.'
Story Musi Be Sensible
"I do a love story again, yes,
but it has to be a sensible love
story, not a freak. Everyone
thinks of Lana Turner as a
baby."
MGM paid Pinza $50,000 to
wait until votes from the box
office came in. The studio offer
ed him a one-picture contract,
he said. But negotiations caved
in and Pinza went back to New
York television. He returned to
Hollywood only for "Tonight
We Sing," which he had signed
for six years ago.
Belter To Work Up
When Pinza swept Into the
cinema city in 1950, he was in
stalled at a Bel-Air mansion and
feted with parties and publicity.
This trip he's at a hotel and
no parties.
"Things that start that way
with parties always end bad,"
he reflected. "Better to atart
from the first step and work
up, but not from the last step
coming down."
Battle Against Polio '
Gains Artist Respect
Lunenburg, N. S. (U.R) The
rugged fisherman and towns
people of Lunenburg call Earl
Bailly the "wonder artist."
Stricken with infantile paraly
sis at the age of two, Bailly lost
all use of his arms end legs. His
successful struggle to surmount
his handicap has earned for him
the respect of artists and thous
ands of others.
Bailly, now 46, paints by
holding the brush in his teeth. He
has turned out marine scenes and
views of the stony Nova Scotia
coast that have been praised by
important critics.
Three of his most recent works
have been acquired by the Hall
mark greeting card company and
will be reproduced in the United
States as Christmas cards.
Bailly spends most of his day
light hours In a wheelchair be
side the window of his family's
cottage near the sea, capturing
on canvas the marine scenes of
his native shore.
