CULFA, penicillin, quinine, morphia ^ and blood plasma are vital in war medicine, but there's another' great healer, too, on the battle front and the home front---the power of song. ° The power of song has made this a top year for singers and composers, for war with its demand for, more and more music has thrust them into the foreground of the entertainment field, with names that were doing well yestereday, like Frankie Boy Sinatra and Dick Haymes, for instance, now becoming stars. " I Phil Regan recently brought this fact home! to me. He made me understand thaf if you were "to take the contribution of Hollywood's songsters to the boys overseas and lay it end to end it would reach Sing Crosby from here to the moon and back again. And Bing Crosby, Frankie, Phil, Dick, Dinah Shore, Judy Phil Regan Garland, Deanna • Dnrbin, Frances Langford, Betty Grable, and all that magnificent list of entertainers whose talent has livened our fighting men have patched up. many, many deep wounds of heart and mind. „ There** a Reaaon Let me tell you somethlng bf what Bing means to the boys. I've talked to some of them back from the invasion front who were there when old Bing, steel helmet on one. side of his head, familiar pipe in the corner of his mouth, stood up in a jeep to sing for a detachment somewhere along the roads off Normandy. Howitzers were barking to his right, and a dull, persistent boom from the horizon indicated a barrage being laid down ahead. But at sight of the Old Groaner, boys who wejte halted on their grim forward march for rest period straightened up and grinned. ' "Bing! Hey, Bing! How about 'Pennies from Heaven'?" And when Bing grinned and raised his arm to indicate he was ready to begin, cheers and whistles split the skies. Then a silence more profound than Carnegie hall, for they didn't want to miss a single note. When an enemy plane circled uncomfortably near, Bing just cocked an eye at the sky and said, "Gee what that Frankie Sinatra won't do to steal a show!" and went right on singing. He'd give them all the old favorites until the order came through for the coldmn to--fall in. Those •boys were marching up to the battle line, but their step was lighter, they had new courage with the echo of his music in their hearts -- the courage that, qomes when danger is shared. - ( A Hit With the G.I.* Once a week Dick Haymes puts j on a radio show called "Everything : for the Boys." They send in their ; requests, and they talk by short 1 wave telephone from the battle | fronts to the folks at hofae. You i should read the mail that pours in from the soldiers. j " Phil Regan, telling me of his i experiences on his personal ap- ' pearance tour, said: "Sometimes I folks tell why they make certain re- | quests. You see, the songs they want j aren't always the smooth ones that! are in^the groove at the moment.! They are the songs that remind them of home. Another song the boys want is "Onward, Christian Soldiers,"- that fierce marching hyinn, one of the .greatest df all time. It's keen as a , sword, that one, and mighty as eteri nity. It's for moments where nos-" ; talgic reminiscence won't do--moments when you want a lift as well as a boost forward. ,• On U.S.O. tours Betty Grable had to sing "Embraceable You" over and over and ove;r again. And Ali'&e Faye's "I'„ll Have My Love to Keep Me Warm" seemed to fill the same spot with homesick boys. So after talking with Phil Regan my hat's off to the singers and song writers of the world rfor what they've done and-are doing for our boys and -for the civilians during this war.' Bing Crosby didn't need war to make him great, but war has - brought him closer to the millions of fans who put him at the "top and keep him there than any peace time years ever could, • r .• • • Spilling the Beans You'll be astounded when you see Lncile Bremer in "Yolanda and the Thief" coming out of a lake with her chiffon veils blowing 12 feet in the air and all her apparel dry, and I'm just the nasty gal who'll tell you how it was made.
