They're not getting much publicity for it, but they're certainly doing a commendable job in raising the morale of our men in combat and in counteracting the gloom-peddling, r-' crepe-hanging and dissen-sion- sowing of the protesting folk singers, draft card burners and anti-war demonstrators. i Among the groups who've volunteered for overseas duty: the Christy Minstrels, who go to Vietnam over Christmas; the -Supremes and Four Tops, who headline a show that will tour Vietnam in January; tha Brothers Four, -who just- returned from war rone; and Paul-Revere and the Raiders, who will not only, go to Vietnam; but also perform here to support the Job' Corps, Peace Corps, USO and the "stay in movement This week's honesty award goes to Joannie Sommers, who switched from Warner Brothers to Columbia label of my albums ever really sold she admitted.

The work is an unflattering portrait of Los Angeles, but is also an attempt to show the problems faced by all cities. A total of 105 films from all over the world were entered in the competition and the Irish government's production of "Yeats Country" took second place. In the film as communication division, "White Throat," a natural science film from Dan Gibson Productions of Canada, took honors.

LAST 11 DAYS! SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) "Where are'the gamblers of old? Where have the great producers gone?" asked the legendary film-maker, John Ford: The 70-year-old giant of Hollywood was one of the directors honored in a series of tributes to great directors, which has teen the surprise hit of the San Francisco Film Festival Ford complained "we don't make pictures any more in Hollywood. Madison Avenue and Wall Street make the films." Each 7- afternoon, clips from a director's most famous works are shown and then he speaks and answers questions.

And scenes from such works as Ford's "The Informer" and William Wellman's "Ox-Bow Incident" indeed do put most of Hollywood's current output to shame. But all sentimentality vanishes when the directors take over. They all have been blunt and unpredictable in their comments.
