FRIDAY, FEBRUARY flit, Ifttt THE PREEPORT JOURNAL-STANDARD PfCKfiO OtlTSTANtHNG MO T10N PICTURE PLAYERS OF 1041; OTHERSCHOSEN BY FREnERICK OTHMAN United Press Hollywood Correspondent Hollywood, Feb. hundred movie makers in mufti at the 14th annual Academy Awards dinner early today cheered Joan Fontaine and Oary Cooper as the beat motion picture players of 1941. Miss Fontaine, in black like most of her banqueting sisters in the glamour girl business, and Cooper in a business suit and a wide grin, Won their gold-plated Oscars for their performances, respectively, in "Susploiorf" and "Sergeant York." "How Green Was My Valley." was best picture, while John Ford, who directed it and WAG now Is serving with the navy at tea in the far east, received tho prize.tor the best directing job. Half An Oscar for Welles Orson Welles, the man from Mars who had been nominated iti nearly all the award classifications, received only half an Oscar, as of his one-man movie, "Citizen Kane." Best supporting player was Donald Crisp, for his part In "How Green," while best supporting actress was the red-headed Mary of diary her work In "The Great Lie." The war put a crimp in the customary award festivities. There was no dancing.

No evening gowns. No full dress suits and no ribbons across hard-boiled shirts. The folks who-paid tnbr $11 per plate for steak and pink ice cream, who likened to Wendell Willkie make the principal speech and who through hours of Oscar-handing- outing, looked hardly at all like the handsomest collection of people In the world. Plain Dress They resembled, rather, wUriout their fine feathers, the diners ai ai.y Rotary club banquet in any prosperous American town. Almost all the women wore black dresses.

The men leaned toward double-breasted suits of blue serge. There was Rosalind Russell, in a slinky black gown with three strands of pearls around her neck, to Introduce Ginger Rogers, last year's winner, in another black dress, who handed their prizes to the Misses Astor and Fontaine. The movie manufacturers received a particular kick from Miss Fontaine's award. Four years ago she was'fired by R-K-O, because the management at that time said she'd never b6 a first-class actress. Yet It was R-K-p that she functioned under Director Alfred Hitchcock to make "Suspicion" and to How To Relieve Bronchitis Creomulsioh relieves promptly because it goes right to the sear of the trouble to help loosen and expel germ laden phlegm, and aid nature to soothe and heal raw, tender, inflamed bronchial mucous membranes.

Walt Disney, whose Associates had received pile of Oscars for their muild and "fantasia," blushed when David o. handed the special Irving Thalberg Memorial award for distinguished service to the movie industry. Another blusher was Jack Benny, Who obtained an Oscar, with a red skirt. "It is a special award to the best cigar-smoking sweater girl of 1941," explained Master of Ceremonies Bob Hope, "Benny won it for his work in 'Charlie's but I understand he won't do any more female impersonating now 'for a the government took away girdle." "Mow Green" Takes Many Honors "How Green Was My Valley," the plcturlzfttion of Richard Llewellyn's best-selling novel of the Welsh coal fields, was sweepstakes winner. It took four statuettes for best picture, best director, best supporting Actor, and best photography, "Blood and Sand" was named best color job, The surprise hit concerning fun in the hereafter, "Here Comes Mr.

Jordan," took two writing prizes. The speechmaking by most of the tnovie big-wigs, the Chinese bassador, and Republican standard- bearer Willkie, took hours, wnikle, who defended the movie makers before a congressional committee last fall on charges of devoting too much of their time to anti-Nazi propaganda, caused a hush when he said "times do change," Willkie Asks For Offense "I only wish that they had made more, many more, of these anti- Nazi pictures," he said. He swung into alighting address- in which he deplored the use of the Word and said: "The American people want the navy out seeking the enemy, not hugging our shores. We want our armies penetrating every 'active front. We, want our fighting planes leading our bombers to their goal.

It sickens me to think of America in terms of defense." The dinner ended at one a. m. Bob Hope got the last word. He turned to a photographer, who was shooting Hash after flash, and said: "If you get me" with my mouth open, 'dub' In some teeth." Hollywood, Feb.

She does it by a system all her own. every night she reads omnivorously best sellers, magazines, newspapers. The minute she gets up in the morning she begins to plot and after breakfast goes straight to her desk.

She talks her stories into a dictating machine, a secretary transcribes them and she edits.

"We should begin to talk of conquerinj efforts and victory rallies and bom bardment bombs." Willkie, speaking at the annua awards dinner of the academy o. motion picture arts and' sciences said the suddenness of the Japanese attack on Pearl harbor had caught the nation off guard, that most the United States' potential strength Is undeveloped and lacks military focus, compelling the nation to be on the defensive. "But," he added, "the nation should start thinking in 'terms of attack, not of retreat; we should begin to act In striking, no blocking," The nation; he said wants navy "seeking out the enemy, not Chugging our shores for fear, the enemy will seek us out as some of our distinguished senators have suggested.

Aik ui far Bess Johnson business their family arrived. When the depression wiped Mr. Flynn's job away and 1 ok very black, Mrs, Flynn got the hunch to seek a radio act- Ing Job for her gifted ten-year- old son. He got the job and she landed another on the same program for $30 a week.

When she grew bored with the serial stories she acted, she wrote some herself and rang the bell. Bess Johnson's is a hard work story too. She worked in a restaurant and modelled for artists to pay for her course at the American Academy of Dramatic Art in New York. In the next few years she whisked through several seasons in a Chicago stock company, marriage, motherhood of a daughter and divorce. Accent Trouble Then when she sought a radio Job in Chicago nobody would hire her.

That high class accent she had worked so hard to learn at drama school was too "society lady for the middle west. So she went to work in a ten cent store to learn midwest-ese. After she had mastered it she tried out for a program whose sponsor virtually turned her down -because he wanted "somebody who could talk like a lady." Bess Johnson laughed, turned on the old technique and got the job. For eight years she was the famous low-pitched voice on the Lady Esther program, Eventually she moved into soap opera and now is the actress star and guiding spirit of the serial "The -Story of Bess Johnson," The famous golden voice on which she worked so h.ard is known to 'em laugh, makes 'env weep, soothes 'em when they are low.

Air Chief Marshal then In both China and Malaya the Japanese army with the aid of a smooth intelligence service, always knew exactly when to attack, even through terrain which the defenders considered Invulnerable. Silver Bullets Aid This was shown when the Japanese first started to isolate Hong Kong in 1938 by landing at Bias bay up the coast with the idea of taking Canton.

The British were sure the Japanese would move up the Pearl river because of the difficult terrain on both sides. But the Japanese landed at what proved the most logical place and moved by land on Canton. In nine days they had captured Canton. Silver for fifth column them as it did later in Malaya. Foreign under-estlmation of the capabilities of the Japanese army has always been one of Japan's strongest weaporis.

Last Dec. Sir Robert British commander In chief In the far east, said at an off-the-record press conference that war would not came to Malaya and he ridiculed reports of the presence of 500 Japanese planes In French Indo-China. Three days later the Japanese attacked Malaya. Fart of Japan's Method The month before Sir Shenton Thomas, governor of Singapore, said he was not worried and never had been. Giving the higher-ups such complacent impressions is part of Japan's methods.

The military methods are employ a minimum of equipment, patterned for the peculiar conditions to be faced, with a maximum of ammunition for the lightest and most effective British soldiers found their own gear unwieldly in the Malaya jungle but the Japanese, wearing nothing but a singlet, shorts and an ammunition bandolier, and able to live off the land, were able to move swiftly. Japanese Invasion tactics so far have been routinely patterned. The is an aerial bombardment, combined at the proper moment with a diversion in which a picked force goes through the motions of a major landing, usually In the opposite direction from that of the main attack. False Landings In Malaya, the prelude was an airplane bombing of Singapore and a landtag diversion on the Kelantan coast on the northeastern side of the peninsula. The British repelled the first attack.

The Japanese flung in reinforcements regardless 'of losses, in order to compel! the defenders to give their full attention to the area. Meanwhile the strongest Japanese forces crossed the Thailand-Malaya border and infiltrated down the peninsula to key points on the west side which were actually under attack from the rear while the British empire forces jubilantly were reporting the repulse of the east coast attack. Then the Japanese moved swiftly down the peninsula while their airplanes made concentrated lightning attacks on all airdromes, in the first hours they destroyed more than half of the imperial air strength on the ground and taihed aerial Itt the fifts week. British -pilots learned to have healthy for the Japanei aviators who, they (Said, had blent of Japanese Intelligence apparently assesses scetirately the enem strength and par ticularly coastal defenses, This was demonstrated at Kong and in Malaya, where attack were launched afc the longest line of resistance, thereby evading th coastal artillery which was pointed the wrong seaward. The British theory that thi Malaya jungle was impenetrabl might have been correct had no the Japanese domiciled in Malays acquainted themselves with every Jungle pass by fraternizing with the natives.

knowledge greatlj aided the sweep down the peninsula A most efficient engineering corp demonstrated its, proficiency in quickly repairing highways and bridges which the British had demolished so the Japanese use heavy mechanized eo.ulpment to support advanced forces. Pay High Wages British intelligence men praised the efficiency of Japanese ettginee and supply units in Malaya and said the Japanese used prisoners recruits and native laborers. They paid laborers high wages, Lack of imperial naval undoubtedly aided the advance by permitting the enemy to make leap frog landings on thi west coast, and constantly threaten ing to cut British communications That is another prime method, to create a diversion, no matter how small, in the enemy's rear. In the later stages of the Malaya campaign the Japanese used crack units in mass on the west coast anc on at least two occasions in isolating entire brigades. The Japanese used every availabl means of transportation.

I saw machine gun mounted on a tradesman's delivery bicycle. Advancing, a Japanese army uses everybody and everything it captures. Retreating it annihilates everybody and everything, Including Itself. Japanese Are Fatalists Broadly speaking, military experts do not regard the Japanese as good soldiers. For the most part fatalism replaces courage In them They do not fear death.

I have seen a prisoner demanding the means with which to kill himself rather than be a captive. But they seem to abhor cold steel. British troops said the Japanese could no take it In bayonet fighting. The Japanese emperor's guards were the only unit which put up a really goot bayonet fight. Discipline is good while the going Is good, but I have heard stories of disintegration during the infrequent occasions when, in Malaya the defenders delivered counter blows.

Around Gemas, when the Australians first broke the 'Japanese wave, Japanese infantrymen, tank men and mechanized troops ran screaming -Into the jungle, Austral- Ian soldiers' told me, despite officers' attempt to reform broken columns. Imperials Hold Till Last I did not see any Imperial troops break until the very last day I visited the Singapore front, Feb. 10 when the Japanese bombs and artillery shells, were breaking the men's spirit. s. The Japanese depend greatly on numerical superiority and they totally disregard losses of man power.

A British officer told me In Malaya that the defense was failing because there were too many Japanese. No official figures have been issued for Japanese losses in Malaya but official British reports once estimated the Japanese losses as normally four times those of the defenders. Nevertheless more and more Japanese soldiers were flung in until In the final stages the Japanese outnumbered the defenders four to one, even though the British brought In three divisions (up to 45,000 men) in the last week in January and the flrsfcfew days in February. (The British abandoned Malaya and withdrew to Singapore island Jan. 3D.

Japanese aerial bombing and artillery fire was most accurate throughout the, Malaya campaign. In Singapore City the Japanese concentrated on the dock area and there was surprisingly small damage to the city itself. The artillery fire was slightly wild sometimes, but It was probably intended to break morale.

Fletcher c.

D. C. checks totaled $690,101 in grants to 47,885 children, and Kettle estimated that the 53,000 quota would be reached next month. Action on the 16,000 remaining applications wll! be withheld and new awards made only when current, grants are cancelled, he said.

The 1941 general assembly ap- priated $18,000,000, half state and half federal funds, to aid dependent children until July 1, 1943. Applicants were to be taken first from mothers' pension lists, then from relief rolls and the general public. "Under the Mothers' Pension law only 16,000 children were granted Kettle said in a statement. "Therefore, the iew program will benefit over 36,000 more children than were assisted under the Mrlhers' Pension program." The majority of 36,000 were taken off relief rolls, he explained and added: "In the 101 downstate counties, the average Aid to Dependent Children payment per child ($14.03) is more than twice the average payment per child ($7.02) under the former Mothers' Pension law."
