QUITE A TASK, | SAYS ‘MOTHER' OF 2000 Bots

Supervising. ‘Da ‘Dates’ Big| C. M. T. C. Problem, Ft. | Ben Hostess Reveals. | |

By LEO DAUGHERTY

i s a pretty big job being “moth- ’ to 2000 boys. Mrs. Helén B. Moore says so and | s0 does her daughter Helen. And | they ought to know, for they are | the U. 8S. Army's official hostesses | to the C. M. T. C. boys out at Ft. | Benjamin Harrison. Mrs. Moore speaks from ph ence of many years. She's a native | of Indianapolis, spends her wintérs in Florida, but each year comes back to “Fort Ben” to be hostess | during the C. M. T. C. encampments.

“Boys Get Homesick”

“When I say mother,” she said. “I really mean that. The boys get homesick and hungry for food just | like their mother cooks it. | “Why, they comé to me, maybe after they've been in camp about 10 days, and tell me how they'd] like to be back home again and | they miss their mothers’ cooking. “Well, there's only a few things I can tell them. I have to per- | suade them that maybe if the food | isn't just as good as their mothers’ | it’s good enough for soldiers, and remind them that theyre soldiers while they're here.” Mrs. Moore said that she takes ‘the problems of the individual youth to the commander of his company, and if he and she cannot solve them, then it's suggested that he go to the post chapel to think it over.

Find Consolation in Chapel

“You'd be surprised,” she said “how many boys find consolation in going to the chapel and thinking things over and maybe saying a few prayers. They're ready for the routine again after their visit.” The job of the hostess—and, incidentally, the Army's appropriation next year doesn't provide for them—is to keep the youthful cit-izen-soldiers happy and provide entertainment for them. “I try to see that there never is a monotonous moment during their | leisure time,” the hostess said. “Working through the sergeants of the various companies, I arrange entertainments in which they themselves participate. I even make costumes for them.”

Brings Shows from Town

Mrs. Moore said that the Women's Overseas Service Legion, of which she is a member, supplements the entertainment programs by “bringing out shows from town” once a week. She cited that among the enrollees are boys who are preparing for college, others who prefer a ca- | reer in the Army, so that there are! many different types to “cater to. One of the big problems of the hostess is supervising “dates.” “I am the young soldiers’ confi- | dant,” she said. “They tell me abou! their girls coming to see them anda | I have to arrange the meeting | place, Most of them meet right | here at their headquarters tent. | I'll bet there were 1100 girls out | here last week-end to see their boy | friends.” She explained that the C. M. T. C. boys and their girl friends can | g0 to the post theater and stroll in | only certain areas. Miss Helen does her best job sew- | ing on buttons. “I don't know how in the world | they lose them,” Mrs. Moore said. “But we have to buy buttons by the | RTOSS. I think we had to sew on 400 last eek.”

Gives State Its Choice on

His Behavior

By United Press RALEIGH, N. C., July 30.— If Marcus Reeves, 25, Bellwood, Ill, gets in any more trouble, it will be the fault of the State of North Carolina, he contended today. Reeves walked out of Central State Prison here yesterday after completing a fouryear term for larceny. “Send me back to Illinois or I'll break the law,” he told State officials. “You release me with a new suit, a pair of prison shoes, a gray prison shirt—and no money. I can get a job in Illinois, but not here. It'll cost the State $15, the price of a ticket, for me to go straight. “If they don’t send me home —well, I've got to live. I'll steal.” Officials pointed out to Reeves that anything the State did to aid him also would be in violation of the law.

TVA DIRECTOR ASKS COLLEGES T0 AID PROGRAM

Federal-Aid Schools Must Co-ordinate Work, Lilienthal Says.

By United Press BLACKSBURG, ‘Va, July 30.— Sticcéss of the Tennessee Valley Authority program in bettering farm incomes and protecting soil fertility makes it necessary that colleges now receiving Federal aid must give gréater help in co-ordi-nating their work with the Federal plan to govern land production, David E. Lilienthal, TVA director, had declared here today. Mr. Lilienthal, addressing the ninth annual Institute of Rural | Affairs on the campus of Virginia | Tech, asserted that “this work of (the Tennessee Valley Authority is not confined to the valley states nor to the farmers of the valley. “The TVA was designed as an experimental proving ground for the nation, with a national point of view, financed by the nation’s funds, with thé results available to the whole country,” he said. ! Mr. Lilienthal said a present need is greater co-ordination between collegés and the Government. “Is it too much to expect that before long it will have become a national policy for us as a nation to assign engineering colleges, with Federal support and Federal co-or= dination, a responsibility to help in increasing the farm income and bringing diversification, security and productiveness to our agricul- | | tural regions?” he asked.
