sketches that will depict inci-
dents in the life of the average
soldier.
Another hobby of Terhune’s is
working on plans for his — and
Mrs. Terhune’s — future home
which will contain at least four
bathrooms and five bedrooms.
Neither he nor Doreen deny that
a large family is a definite ex-
pectation. One of his V-mail lett-
ers was devoted exclusively to a
sketch of the home-to-be. The
sketch called for an even larger,
more rambling structure that
that which had been previously
agreed upon — complete with
trees, shrubbery, and tennis
court.
Although Terhune plans to do
advertising work upon his dis-
charge from the Army, Doreen
is keeping her fingers crossed on
his probable future as a pro-
fessional cartoonist. Meanwhile
he continues dressing up his
envelopes and reading letters —
more and more of them every
day.
Musicals Offered
At Fieldhouse
Two breezy, star-studded
musicals will be the offerings at
the Andrews Fieldhouse this
week-end. Tonight’s show, which
will be flashed at 1800 and 2030
hours, will be “Up In Arms,”
starring Danny Kaye and Dinah
Shore. Sunday’s film will be “And
The Angels Sing,’ with Dotty
Lamour and Betty Hutton. There
will be the usual three showings
Sunday, at 1400, 1800 and 2230.
Tonight’s movie will be for
military personnel only, while
civilian tickets for tomorrow’s
show may be procured through
Base Special Service.
Hedy Lamarr
'Bursts lute Flames'
Hedy Lamarr is a torrid babe,
we all agree, but no one ever
expected her to burst into flames
— not even her press agent. It
wasn’t spontaneous combustion,
the press agent agreed, and it
was no product of his fertile
brain.
Hedy’s veil caught fire in
Hollywood this week during a
cigarette-lighting scene with
Paul Henreid. Henreid executed
the fastest movie clinch on record
to smother the flames. Miss
Lamarr was not injured, as Hen-
reid’s quick action confined the
damage to the Veil and gown,
which were badly scorched.
Pittsburgh Lady
Named ’44 Mother
Mrs. John MacFarlane Phillips,
civic leader and mother of five
children in Pittsburgh, Pa., this
week was named the “American
Mother for 1944” by the Amerio
an Mothers Committee of the
Golden Rule Foundation.
One of the most impressive moments of last Saturday’s con-
cert, at the Andrews Fieldhouse, featuring the Male Chorus of
Reykjavik and the Army Band, was the choral group’s singing
of the American National Anthem. The audience, pictured above,
stands at attention during the rendition.
Soldiers, Icelanders
Please In Joint Concert
The O.D. uniforms worn by
the members of the Army Band
stood out in sharp contrast to the
tails worn by the members of
the Reykjavik Male Voice Choir
at last Saturday’s concert at the
Andrews Fieldhouse — a con-
trast which once more proved
that music knows no barriers,
that it has a place in any scheme
of life.
After singing the “Star Spang-
led Banner,” the choir, directed
by SigurSur PorSarson, present-
ed “Island”, an Icelandic saga.
Although most of the soldiers did
not understand the lyrics, they
could not help but feel the vigor
and rich heritage of the Icelandic
people as expressed in song by
the choir.
“E>ei-]?ei og ro-ro,” an Icelandic
lullaby, demonstrated the choir’s
marvelous voice control. The soft,
lulling melody had a resting ef-
fect upon the listeners, who
seemed almost spell-bound.
Atlhough it leaned towards
gypsy and Hungarian music for
its part of the program, the Army
Band performed in its usual fine
manner. The closing movements
of Rimsky-Korsakoff’s “Capric-
cio Espagnole” brought to mind
dark-eyed, raven-haired gypsy
maidens swaying around a camp
fire. The excellent treatment ac-
corded this composition by band-
leader CWO John D. Corley and
his men was acknowledged by
the prolonged applause of the
gathering.
In the “March and Procession
of Bacchus” from the ballet “Syl-
via” by Delibes, the band dis-
played a sweep and power that
is expected from an organization
several times its size.
U.S. Production
Continues Climb
United States production con-
tinues to soar up, higher and
higher. According to a Lend Lease
report this week, the U.S. pro-
duced more than 155,000 planes,
59,000 tanks and 2,000,000 trucks
and other military vehicles be-
tween March 11, 1941, and March
1, 1944.
After one of the shortest hear-
ings on record, the Senate For-
eign Relations Committee voted
to approve extension of Lend
Lease for another year, a few
hours after release of the report
on plane and tank production.
In addition, the U.S. has sent
to its Allies since March 11, 1941,
$1,800,000,000 worth of aircraft
engines and parts, “hundreds of
millions of gallons” of aviation
gasoline and $2,700,000,000 worth
of ordnance and ammunition.

Is This The Army?
Big, strong he-men are flock-
ing to beauty parlors in Chatham,
Va., and this includes student
sergeants as well as Other mili-
tary personnel. The reason for
this sudden move is because a
number of students at Hargrave
Military Academy “went Holly-
wood.”
For some reason a great many
of the students dyed their hair
blond; soon others followed suit.
Authorities promptly showed
their displeasure in the form of
restrictions. Now the cadets, not
knowing the antidote for dye,
are flocking to the local beauty
parlors far professional aid.
