A. E. F.’s Wartime Sweethearts Seeking News Os Soldier Pals Paris, Sept. 21—(UP) —Hundreds of wartime sweethearts of the A. E. F. are hoping to see tilieir doughboy friends again during the American Legion Convention. The prospect of a renewal cf their happy ’‘affaire de coeur” with a “aoldat; Atnericanian” who may be here as a member of the Second A. E. F. has brought these French girls to the information office at American Legion headquarters here. Feverishly they have inquired whether John Doe is among the legionaires who are nowin Paris. Even before the information clerk has been given an opportunity to make his usual reply of “I'm sorry, Mademoiselle, we have no record of every man now over here," madcmoisell has deluged him with a candid recital of all of the intimate little details of her amorous experience with her soldier boy. Nearly everyone of the anxious inquirers has favored the clerk with a glimpse at a faded photograph of her war-time Romeo, whose characteristics and qualities they have never failed to laud in terms that leave no doubt of their sincere desire to see him again. Almost equal in number to these girls have been the French mothers in whose homes American soldiers were billeted. They too have been eager for information -rega. ding the coming to France of the beys who used to share the hospitality of their hearts. Just to press his hand once more, to thank him again for the many little couresies he extended them when the burdens of life were none too easy, seems to be their desire. That there will be many a happy reunion of sweethearts or friends while legionnaires are here, no one is better qualified to predict than the information clerk at Legion headquarters. He has planned a system whereby his office may become a clearing house "where sweetheart, friend or buddy may meet again for a renewal of a relationship that even an absence of a decade has not been able to sever. n Crossing Watchman Faces Charge Os Manslaughter Gary, Ind., Sept. 21 —(UP) —Policy are holding Mike Stampish 3S, crossing watchman, for investigation, following a crossing crash late yesterday, in ] which two negio icemen were killed when a truck upon which they were riding was struck by a suburban flier of the South Shore Railroad.
