Division Which Helped Shape American History Dying in Korea; Rest Earned Br PPC QUIGG United Press Correspondent New York - (IP) An old friend is dying in Korea. This friend is not a person although to some it seemed, through two wars, to have an individuality of its own and to act on its own like a think alive, It is just a name. Matter of fact, just a number. But it helped shape American history from the day the bombs fell at Pearl Harbor to the end of the fighting in Korea. The 24th Infantry Division is heading for a rendezvous with oblivion. The body of men and equipment serving under that name in Korea will be redesig nated as the 1st Cavalry Div ision, and' army personnel of the 1st Cavalry in Japan will be removed from that country and reassigned elsewhere. Shoved on Shelf Then the name "24th Divis ion" will be quietly shoved onto the shelf. The U. S. Army will remove the name from its ac tive list. When the little enemy planes came in from the sea at ifirst light of Dec. 7, 1941, the 24th was near Pearl Harbor and suf fered minor casualties. The rain was torrential on ! the marshes when the 24th seiz ed the Hollandia airdrome in New Guinea and the jungle was crawling with biting, stinging bugs. The rainy season was on, too, for the landing at Red Beach on Leyte, and the 24th drove up Leyte Valley and took Breakneck Ridge in agonizing fighting. Elements of the 24th fought all over the Philippines, and in February, 1945, one of its bat talions landed against heavy op position on the rock of Correg idor and helped paratroops de liver that tiny fortress isle once more into American hands. The division fought across tropical Mindanao , in the Phil- Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (IPl Anthony Perkins hitchhiked to Hollywood from Broadway two years ago. "7 Aline Mosey In two months Tony, now a top cinema heart - throb, will return to the stage and will live in the same S50-a-month apart ment. v While many young stars talk in vain of going back to the true-blue art of the theater, Tony is one who actually is giving up movies for a year to act on the stage in "Look Homeward, An gel," at one-fourth his usual sal ary. He lived in a $50-a-month apartment during his days on the stage in "Tea and Sym pathy" his first play that brought him to Hollywood star dom in "Friendly Persuasion." Unchanged by Success . "And in October I'll be back in that same $50-a-month apart ment I've always kept it," grin ned Tony showing that fan mag azine layouts and autograph hounds haven't changed him. . Instead of hitch-hiking, how ever,' Tony will drive cross-country in his sports car, top down, guaranteeing a crowd of eager girls at gas stations in a dozen states. Tony's Broadway return Is unique. For the first time an actor who has been signed for a picture is going to New York to star in the stage version first. Paramount bought the film rights to the book "Look Home ward, Angel" seven years ago. but the script gathered dust be cause no young actor could be found to play the central char acter in the Thomas Wolfe clas sic. " Tousle-haired lanky Perkins was earmarked for the role the minute Paramount viewed on his wolfian appearance and man ner two years ago, but the studio has kept him busy under con tract with other movies. Recent ly producer Kermit Bloomgart- en coincidentally asked Perkins to do a stage version of the same book this fall. Now Paramount, figuring a Broadway hit will only help the movie, happily scheduled the screen version for next July. "I had wanted to return to Broadway anyway this fall and was reading many scripts," said Perkins, polishing off beans and frankfurters in the Paramount commissary. Anxious io Return It's hard to learn how to act in the movies and I am anxious to return to the stage. This is a good time because I have four unreleased pictures "The Tin Star,' 'Desire Uunder the Elms,' "The Matchmaker' and "This Bit ter Earth.' ."I was asked to do 'Wines burg, Ohio' on the stage, but I don't know the works of Sher wood Anderson and I read all of Wolfe's books at Columbia Uni versity and I feel close to him." Since Tony has been an nounced for both "Look Home ward, Angel" versions, he has been deluged with letters from Wolfe fans and relatives. As Wolfe in the story I'll be in long hair and period clothes," the actor said. "Ths only time I've had a haircut in two years was for 'Fear Strikes Out.' " ippines, stormed Davao, . cleared Libby- airdrome in May, and continued patrol action even af ter Japan's surrender officially ended the war. First in Korea Remember the start of the Ko rean war, and the early, des perate days when American ground troops were first sent there? That was the 24th U. S. Division. Outnumbered by the Communist attackers, the 24th attempted to withdraw at Tae jon, broke into scattered ele ments, and its commander, Maj. Gen. William F. Dean, was cap tured. Then came the holding action, then the long drive north, and when the Chinese Communists entered the Korean war late in 1950, the 24th Division was within seven miles of the Yalu river. ' In multiple advances and re treats the road signs bearing the code name of the division were familiar sights up and down the shattered length of Korea. In all, the division at tacked north across the 38th Parallel three separate times. Just a name .... a number . . . under which many thousands of young men have served, sweat ed, ached, bled, died. It was a restless, moving, fighting name. It earned retirement. Let it rest. APPEARS WEDNESDAY The "Be-Bop-a-Lulu" singer. Gene Vincent, will appear at the new Medford Armory Wednesday.
