U. S. Leanis Jungle Warfare
Snakebite antidote, compasses, mosquito netting and
machetes are part of the regular equipment of American sol
diers now receiving training in jungle fighting in the Carib
bean area. To reach their objectives, jungle fighters must
climb and descend mountains, hack their way through jungle
growth, traverse swamps and cross rivers.
A large body of men carry a good deal of equipment—one
soldier a rope, another dynamite, others gasoline and a stove;
others additional medical supplies and weapons.
Soldiers in the Caribbean area learn to swim rivers with
their rifles over their heads and know the trick of bending
over, when they have reached the opposite bank, to let the
water run out of their packs. In low, swampy places and
when crossing streams they must be on the watch for a wall
of water which might come at them because of a cloudburst
high in the mountains above them.
Food is a problem in the jungle, for everything molds, and
tin cans in most cases are too heavy to carry. The soldier
must learn to live off the jungle as far as possible on fruits
or on the meat of canejos, tapirs, snakes and monkeys. He
learns that iguanas are a delicacy.
Men in training are never sent on a mission alone; two
men must always be together. In actual combat, however,
these men will be putting to use all they have learned in
order to out-infiltrate and outfight the Japs.
Presented here is a series of jungle warfare training pic
tures taken by the U. S. Army Signal Corps in remote out
posts manned by U. S. troops somewhere in the Caribbean
area.
A group of typical fighting men who are manning our Carib

WNU Features.
SIX days ago. before we started
from New York on our jour
ney to the Pacific coast, our
friend Howard, who had made
the trip four times, said to us:
"You’ll see plenty of cowboys, and
Indians, too. And on the desert
there'll be prospectors, regular old
desert rats. They’re interesting to
talk to."
But here we were near Phoenix,
Arizona, and we hadn’t seen even
a horse, let alone a real cowboy
astride one. It was discouraging.
And then suddenly Edie cried:
"There’s one!”
"One what?” I asked, sitting
bolt upright, and nearly run
ning the car off the road.
"A prospector! See! There!
Coming across the desert with
his pack burro."
"By jove, she's right!”
Philip and his wife, Annette, had
both sighted the man at the same
instant. And a moment later I saw
him, too, not fifty yards away. He
was heading in a diagonal course
for the automobile road.
“Stop, you idiot!” Philip yelled.
“We can’t talk to him going fifty
miles an hour.”
I didn’t like the way Philip yelled.
I don’t like Philip especially well
anyhow, but I stopped. I was as
anxious to get a closeup of the pros
pector as were the others. There
was a possibility he might have
something that I could buy to add
to my collection of frontier relics.
We stopped at a point that I
judged would intersect the desert
man's path and waited. He was an
old man. wearing a beard, battered
felt hat and a collarless, ragged
shirt. His trousers were held up by
He was an old man, wearing a
beard.
one suspender strap, and the legs
of them were tucked into eight-inch
boots with run-down heels.
He looked for all the world
like one of the gold prospectors
you read about in western
magazines and novels.
The burro was mouse-colored and
shaggy. Atop his back was piled
camping gear and cooking utensils
and other implements that we
judged were used in the search for
gold.
When within a dozen yards of us
he looked up and grinned. He was
toothless. It was then that my heart
leaped. For strapped about his thin
waist was a holster, from which pro
truded the walnut handle of an an
cient six-shooter. Even without see
ing the revolving barrel and muzzle
I knew that it was of the variety
I wanted and had been searching
for for years to complete my col
lection of old American guns. And
I knew too that Philip, who wanted
a similar weapon, had seen it too.
I climbed out of the car in the
hope of getting the jump on old
Philip, but he was right beside me,
and the girls came laughing behind
“Listen,” | said breathlessly
to the old man, “how much do
you want for that gun? Give
j you five bucks!"
"Double it!” said Philip annoying
ly, and grinned.
The old man stared at us in
amazement, looked from one to the
other and then at the girls. Think
ing about it later 1 don’t wonder
that he acted a little frightened.
"Listen.” I said again, “I'll give
you $25 for that six-shooter, Mr.
Prospector, and right on the line,
too.”
"Thirty!” said Philip.
As yet the old man hadn’t said a
word, but he grasped the opportu
nity while Philip and I were glower
ing at each other.
"Look here!” I exclaimed, "we're
offering you real money for the
worthless old thing. Cash! Do you
understand?”
"Don’t want to sell it,” the old
codger repeated doggedly.
"Will you take $50?” I asked.
"Yes," he said.
"Fifty-five!" said Philip.
"Now wait a minute.” I turned to
Philip. "He said he’d sell for fifty.
What's the use in you and I throw
ing away our money? We could go
on bidding forever. Suppose we flip
a coin?”
1 "O. K.,” said Philip. “Fair
enough.” He produced a coin,
i "Heads I get it, tails you do?” I
1i nodded. He flipped the coin and it
came down tails. I grinned joyously.
Philip looked sour and went back
to the car.
I turned to our friend. “Here’s
your fifty,” I said. “Let’s have
the gat.”
“Fifty-flve,”said the old man.
I looked at him sharply.
“O. K. Fifty-five.” I produced
another five-doltar bill and hand
ed it over. He gave me the
gun. It was a beauty! Exactly
what I wanted. And miracle,
there were two notches cut Into
the handle!
Triumphantly I returned to the
car and showed my prize to Philip.
But the sour look was still on his
face, and there wasn't much satis
faction in gloating. That would
come later.
We drove off, leaving the old pros
pector standing there on the edge
of the automobile road looking after
us. The money was still in his j
hand, and the last glimpse I had of
him in the rear-view mirror he had
taken off his battered hat and was '
scratching his head. His face wore j
the same expression of bewilder-1
ment. I chuckled. Crazy old coot!
An hour later we drove into
Phoenix and put up at a good hotel.
1 was happy. I examined my gun,
found that it contained one car
tridge, which I extracted, then care
fully wrapped both gun and ammu
nition reverently in an old silk hand
kerchief.
After dinner I went into the lobby
and sat down, picturing just how I
would rearrange my den at home so
that the relic would be prominently
displayed. Presently I noticed that
someone had come in and joined a
companion on the divan just behind
where I sat. I couldn’t help but
overhear their conversation.
"Hello, Bill,” said the new
comer. “Ilow they going?”
“Good,” said the other man.
“Sold three. How about you?”
"Five,” said Bill. “Got $55 for
the last one.” He chuckled. “I was
working about forty miles north of
town. Four suckers came along
and the men in the party began
scrapping over who was to have the
gun. They finally decided to flip a
coin and the loudest talker won.
Came across with fifty-five smacks
without a squawk. By the way, I
got to stroll down to Halletts’ and
order me a new set of prospector’s
clothes. Those old ones make me
look too young. What do you think?”
“Wouldn’t hurt any. And while
you’re at it, you’d better sink an
other ten bucks and get yourself a
new burro. Lop-ears deserves go
ing to pasture.”
The first speaker stood up. “Well,
I’ll be seeing you. There’s a case
of those frontier guns waiting for
me at the freight house, fresh from
the factory. I’ve got to go down
and cut notches in the handles. So
long."
“So long," said Bill.
Scientists Take Flour
Apart, Put It Together
Using an ingenious laboratory
method for literally taking flour
apart and putting it together again,
a department of agriculture scien
tist has added some additional in
formation on the long-debated ques
tion as to what makes good bread
good.
His work again emphasizes the
importance of gluten as the main
key to bread quality.
In taking flour apart, Karl F.
Finney, co-operative agent of the
Bureau of Plant Industry and the
Kansas agricultural experiment sta
tion at Manhattan, divided it into
three fractions: (1) starch, <2)
gluten, and (3) a water soluble frac
tion. He was able to subdivide the
gluten further by extracting the fat.
With these chemically distinct
fractions of the flour prepared in
the laboratory, Finney found that it
was possible to combine them again
in the same proportion as in the
original flour and make from the
"put-together” flour a loaf of bread
practically identical with a loaf
from the original flour.
Bakers recognize wide differences
in the quality of flour from different
varieties of wheat. So, Finney's
•next step was to take apart three
flours. A, B, and C, of distinct
qualities. Juggling the combinations
—for example, combining starch
from Wheat B with the other ele
ments from Wheat A—he put to
gether synthetic flours and baked
test loaves. Starch from B would
substitute for starch from A without
making any substantial change in
the loaves. Water soluble fractions
or fats could be interchanged at
will. But when gluten from Flour
B was added to the other elements
of Flour A or Flour C, the test
loaf was like the loaf from the all-B
flout*
These experiments, Bureau of
Plant Industry officials point out,
will make possible a more correct
interpretation of the probable bak
ing value of new wheat varieties.
‘Seeing Stars’
Silver stars painted on a moder
ately dark blue - gray ceiling,
dropped down about two inches on
the wall, proved very popular with
patients in a newly decorated hos
pital. The upper part of the light
ing fixture was painted the same as
the ceiling and the lower part was
ivory. The walls were light peach.
The furniture was reflnished in an
tique ivory with a green strip and
dressed up by the addition of de
calcomanias. The bed was covered
with a white chenille spread. A
taupe throw rug and an overstuffed
chair in blue with a floral design in
rose, yellow, green, gray and white
add a colorful note to the room.
