Mary O'Hara wrote it first as a short story published in Story magazine, where it attracted such praise that she expanded it into a novel which appeared in Redbook.

Condensations were later read by readers of Scholastic and Reader's Digest. It also became a best seller. The story is a very simple one, on a Wyoming flunks in telling of a youngster, who lives school, tries to be helpful but only succeeds in causing trouble. A frisky burnt-orange filly proves a godsend by teaching the boy responsibility, and making the father learn more than the practical side of life. The script deviates only a hair's breadth from the original, by leaving out the older brother in the family and thus concentrating on the tribulations of the boywho names his pet Flicka, after the Swedish for girl.

Roddy McDowall is boyish and unaffected as the youngster, and Preston Foster and Rita Johnson are both believable and human as his father and mother. The Technicolor photography, outside the elements of the drama, succeeds prominently in giving the chronicle its greatest charm and beauty. It vividly realizes the white of bark on cottonwoods and of clouds in Rocky Mountain skies, set against scenes of idyllic and spacious loveliness. Those who think that, all pets should be kept penned apart from human beings, and that talking to them and enjoying their reactions is silly, will not be amused by "My Friend Flicka."

(U.P.) Out here in the greasewood and cactus American soldiers are fighting the desert as well as training to fight the enemy. It all helps to harden the soldier, which is what the army wants. Heat isn't the only hardship in the desert. One of the annoyances and dangers is the presence of flies. They breed rapidly in the heat as do the germs they carry.

General L. McD. SilvesMajor, commands an armored division, is forever stressing to his men the need of keeping control of 'flies. Every latrine is screened. Garbage is taken from the camp after each meal.

to a distant dump and covered with earth. Water from the kitchen is dumped into a covered sump hole. The floors of the kitchen and dining tents are oiled. Cook Impressed One company cook was especially impressed by the general's aggressiveness against flies. He wrote a ditty to the effect the general was fighting flies instead of Japs.

The general tossed it back. He discovered who the cook was and warned him if he ever found any flies in his kitchen the cook would have to catch them, paint spots on them, and count them every time they came in. General Silvester tells the story with a laugh. The cook seemed to be impressed. He obtained several extra fly-swatters.

One when the general passed the kitchen he saw the cooks out swatting flies in the desert nearby. The general isn't quite sure whether this antifly offensive was serious business or more horseplay at his expense. On another occasion General Silvester was giving a ride to a hitch-hiking soldier who had been on leave. There had been a bad wind storm while the soldier had been gone. The general, recounting the storm, told how the fly on his tent had been flapping and kept him awake.

Knew General's Reputation The soldier was still suffering a bit from too much- leave. He didn't quite get the remark, but he knew the general was death on flies. "Gosh, did a fly keep you awake?" was his response. The precautions over the health of troops in the desert bear fruit. Sickness is less than the army average.

Non-effectives number about two per cent, whereas four percent is considered satisfactory. The venereal disease rate runs about three per thousand per annum, whereas the army as whole is several times that. Discipline is good in the desert. If a soldier goes AWOL in Los Angeles he is docked two-thirds his pay for six months. Out of the division and supporting Things every woman should know about the one man's shirt that's different!
