act when one of their ‘number doesn’t come home from a mission. It isn't like in the movies, not ¥% od even like in books. There is no sol- | emn announce- ° ment that “Joe ; has given his last full measure—" : Word seeps through the eamp, passed along from one tent to another . with a casual air Mr. Thorp of finality. Everyone keeps on doing what he was doing. Maybe there is a poker game, a game that started the night before when Joe sat in for several hands before his last flight. “Joe hung up, he. Jock today,” someone says. He Was Getting Too Eager That isn’t exactly the way they say it. The term is like that—not quite so polite, “Yeah, I know,” another mumbles. “I was his wing man.” A pair of eights wins the pot. The | guy who dropped out with two tens swears a little and another hand is dealt.

Blackout Ends In All England |

* - LONDON, April 23 (U, P.).— Tonight the English get their chance to make good the, words of their popular song, “I'm Going to Get Lit Up When the Lights Go Up in London.” After nearly .six long, dark years, the lights go on again tonight all over England, except for a five-mile coastal belt. To save power, street lighting will not yet be turned on in force. But for the first time since September, 1939, lights will gleam brightly, unshaded and unashamed, from -homes, shops and

CHARGE BASEBALL GAMBLING

PHILADELPHIA, Apirl 23 (U. P.).|

~Five men were held for hearings today after their arrest at Shibe park on gambling charges during yesterday's Phillies-Boston doubleheader. The arrests were the first since the late Judge Landis com-

plained about gambling at the ball

park last season.

“Joe was getting ‘too eager’,” the wing man goes on. “He was trying too hard. He was getting so excited he could hardly light a cigaret.”

This kind of talk looks callous on paper, the sort of thing big, tough guys like to think they would say under the circumstances. It isn’t like that when you hear it, The boys who say it aren't hard or bitter, They learned a long time ago that there's not much they can do about planes and pilots who don't come back. Game Stops a While More cards are dealt. Someone leaves the game to take a look at There's clothing, of course, a camera, three or four hundred dollars stuffed pockets. One of the poker players adds a $10 bill to Joe's money. “I borrowed it from him in Sydney,” he explains. The game stops for a time while they examine Joe's pictures—one of the gang of them at a night “chub in San Francisco. There is a tinted portrait—Joe’s girl. "And finally a small, silver-framed photograph. “That's Joe's mon and pop,” the wing man says. “Kind of sweetlooking, aren't they?” Fhen everything is tied in a neat { bundle,

FIND MANPOWER AIDED BY VITAMINS

‘PASADENA, Cal, April 23 (U.P.), —Supervised doses of a “vitaminmineral supplement” have increased manpower by 4.1 per cent among aircraft workers participating in the experiments, California Institute of Technology reported today.

The tests were conducted over a period of a year on a group of Lockheed aircraft workers. Working days per man were increased an average of 10.5 during the year,

“Of the total gain in manpower of 41 per cent,” the report said, “62.9 per cent ‘was due to better general work performance, reduced absenteeism contributed to 21.6 per cent, and reduced turnover an added 15.5 per cent.”

HELD IN WIFE'S DEATH KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 23 (U. P.)—Police today held Roy Bledsoe, 37, for investigation into the death of his estranged wife, Vera, 29, whose body was found in a clothes closet in her home.

YOUR G.I.

Before Dis

WASHINGTON, April 23.—Congress is considering a plan to give enlisted men a 30-day furlough before they are discharged. Veterans organizations and other groups pushing this measure point out that officers are able to use up accumulated leave and it is only fair that G. Ls should have-the same right. It would mean that before a man is forced to put on ‘his civilian clothes and start looking for a job he can look things over and line up a position while technically still

to one month’s extra pay. Observers believe the bill has a ‘good chance of becoming law - within the next few months. Officials here are “worried about the small number .of veterans who ‘are taking advantage of the loan
