SCOTT 15 JUSTONE MAN ARMY WITH THE AEF. IN ITALY— Pvt. Ray J. Scott of Seattle, Wash., was supposed to be just a runner between a battalion command post and a forward artillery observation post but he turned out to be a jack- of-all-trades—a master at them all. The Germans got the range on the observation post and killed the radio operator. The forward observ- er was killed and the radio knocked out by exploding shells. But Private Scott started tinkering with it, got it to working and then took over the observation work too. He called for more fire to get the counterattacking Jerries just in front of him. It got them and kept knocking his radio out of commis- sion, but he kept tinkering it back into operation again. Finally it was wrecked so badly that he picked it up and carried it back to the com- mand post. Battalion Cornered By that time, the Jerry counter-| attack had the battalion cornered, extremely funny neighbor. | “Henry Eldrich, Editor,” which is at the 20th Century Theatre Sun- day, tells the laugh-packed story of Henr experiences as editor of the high hool paper.
