...keep their ears to the barrack rooms, Yank staffmen will be rotated "back to camp" from its head office in Manhattan. Yank correspondents will follow the combat units, fight when necessary, rate as fighting men, not correspondents, if captured. Says Executive Editor Captain Hartzell Spence, ex-U.P. promotion manager and author of One Foot in Heaven: "Suppose one of our reporters goes along on a Commando raid. If he comes back we've got a great story. If he doesn't come back we've got a casualty...

Accustomed to bossing his own business, he champions local causes; alienated the advertising of a Nashville store by exposing its sale of shoddy blankets to flood sufferers; drove loan sharks out of Nashville by publicity last year. While not endorsing Landon, the Banner...
