From a faint-heart- {ed hypochondriac, he turns into a !hard-flghling G.I. who can dish it {out as well as take it.

In a very impressive spiritual talk, the Rev. G. H. Hillerman likened this war unto that of the Civil War, giving snatches of Lincoln’s Gettys- burg Address and, like Lincoln, pre- sented the two roads to be taken, years of hardship or years of happi- ness. Each speaker stressed the point that the work has just begun, as Japan must be defeated and com- plete re-adjustment will be in order |for the country and the returning veterans. George Schmidt led the congrega- ition in hymns and Katherine Alex- ander accompanied on the organ. - BATTLEFO SECOND HAS COASTSPOT Rainiers Tackle Fast-Rising Solons in Series This Week (B Associated Press) The battle for second place in the Pacific Coast League still held the spotlight today after a week I | Seattle’s drop from second to fourth place.

By simple arithmetic it is evident that that is the equivalent |of 200 full-length novels. But for every word which has |been printed about the famous frontiersman-hero, Producer Harry | | A. Sherman estimates there are two in unpublished manuscript form And he should know. Sherman produced “Buffalo Bill,” 20th Cen- tury-Fox's thrilling Technicolor spectacle, showing its last times to- § night at the 20th Century Theatre, | starring Joel McCrea, Maureen | O'Hara and Linda Darnell. | Every day during the shooting of | the film, Sherman’s desk was flood- } ed with unpubli$hed manuscripts by persons who claimed to have known Buffalo Bill intimately. Each had a colorful anecdote or personal exper- ience to tell, all of which is indi- cative of the fact that the man's |/ 'personamy left an indelible im- | pression upon everyone who encoun- tered him. Joel McCrea enacts the title role on the screen. He wears the mus- tache, beard and long hair which were trade-marks of Buffalo Bill. In all the words printed, not one book or article fails to mention these adornments. SRS S ON INSPECTION LAST SHOWINGS TONIGHT IT'S THE TECHNICOLOR EPIC OF THE "OLDWEST . . .
