...Siberian vastness. He had seen American soldiers in many countries, listened to the beefs and urgings of many men. Into his ears had been poured the stupidities & wranglings, the hopes & fears of more than half the world. He was so tired he could only toy with the Scotch & soda to which he had so long looked forward. But when he faced the newsmen they could see, underneath his grey fatigue, a burning urgency they had never seen before, even in an urgent Wendell Willkie...
...chocolate soda, a sandwich, occasional sips of water, vast, durable Kate Smith topped the shattering, 17-hour war-bond-selling grind of moderately vast Charles Laughton (TIME, Oct. 12) by three hours and $1,675,550.

Male cinemaddicts will regard her as so much guileless natural force disguised in sprigged muslin. Her prototype, Eileen McKenney, was killed (with her husband, Novelist Nathaniel West) in an auto crash (TIME...
...most often compared to an oldtime general store, but it is more than that. A typical exchange has a bar serving low alcoholic beer (it may not be intoxicating), juke boxes, a shooting range, a soda fountain where a soldier can buy a lunch topped off by a triple-dip ice-cream soda. Usually there are also a barbershop, cobbler's shop, a tailor to make alterations in issue clothing for the carefully dressed soldier. Last week the Exchange Service added a new feature: officer's uniforms that a new second lieutenant can buy within the range...
