DICKINSON United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 31 (U.R The distant thunder sounded in the east just as the little yellow man in the worm frock coat and the moth-eaten top hat reached the ladder which led down the gray steel side of the "mighty Mo'." Mamoru Shigemitsu, foreign minister of beaten Japan, paused there at the top of the ladder, balancing bal-ancing himself with his black Sk . i - i m WAR NOT OVER YET NEW YORK, Aug. 31 (U.R) j A year ago In Tokyo Bay I Japan formally surrendered to ' the Allies, and the "fighting war ended.

He turned his face to look at the sky to the east, above the cap-tal cap-tal of the once-proud Nipponese Empire, where the sun was breaking break-ing through scattered clouds. As he gazed, the thunder grew. It was exactly 9:30 a.m. Tokyo time on Sept. 2, 1945. (Sept. 1 in will sign the instrument of surrender." sur-render." The little man walked with downcast eyes those long 20 steps to the table where MacArthur stood, the surrender documents spread on the green felt before him. He spoke no word as he lowered himself painfully into the chair before the table, his peg-leg sticking out grotesquely before him, picked up one of the new pens and signed his name to both copies of the document in which his nation admitted total defeat, and accepted unconditional surrender. sur-render. He rose and stood beside the table as ugly little Gen. Yoshijiro Umeju signed after him for the Japanese Imperial general staff. Then he limped back to his place, and watched through lowered low-ered lids as the ceremony of surrender sur-render suddenly and inexplic ably relieved of is tenseness by the Japanese signing continued on a note of almost jubilation. MacArthur Signs First MacArthur signed fiirt for all the Allied nations, using five pens to inscribe his bold signature the last of them a little red fountain pen belonging to the Tennessee belle whom he had made his wife. Then came Nimitz and the rest, one from each country, to write their names. the United States.) I It was 9:30. Only 30 minutes ht Only 30 minutes before.

He had limped across the promenade prom-enade deck to stand, awkwardly yet not without dignity, and face the men who had sent Japan down to defeat.

The light in the eye outshines the light on the match. By NEA Service A G. I.'s .wolf whistle in Peru has stimulated diplomatic protests pro-tests because the object of- hia attention at-tention was prominent. But Latin wolves have ,their own language of admiration and don't -need lessons from American G. I.'s. On a recent flying trip to South America an NEA correspondent gathered purely scientific data on several different street corner approaches. ap-proaches. They are illustrated in. the accompanying photographs. No. 1 is the Belem, Brazil, whistle. whis-tle. On approach of the subject, the Belem blade continues to lounge against the building or lamp post which is propping him up but widens his eyes and slowly slow-ly inhales through his lips, producing pro-ducing a thin, rced-like whistle. Guaranteed to turn the head of the hautiest beauty Belem style, that is. No. 2 is the favorite of the Argentine Ar-gentine drugstore gaucho. What it lacks in the delicacy of the Belem version is outweighed by its enthusiasm. You twist the thumb-end of your right fist into your right cheek and simultaneously simultane-ously wink with the left eye. Results? Re-sults? Macanudo. Che! That's Argentine Ar-gentine slang for ' swell, pal!" Nos. 3 and 4 are straight from the boulevards of beautiful Rio de Janeiro. The senhor in No. 3 has just spotted a senhorita whom he regards with "B" enthusiasm. His exoert eye has qualified her legs and torso but the head that carries car-ries the basket of bananas is only "B" marred by a broken nose or, perhaps, one crossed eye. Our man lifts his right hand, daintily pinches the lobe of his right ear and whistles whoo-WHOOO! In No. 4 we see our Brazilian beau confronted by perfect wolfing wolf-ing conditions. Legs, torso, face, hairdo everything guaranteed to grace the annual samba festival. As this little number shuffles into view the senhor leaps off his backbone, whips his right hand behind his headland pinches the lobe of his left that's right, left ear. Also the wolf whistle. Thi? is the ultimate in flattering gesture ges-ture in the shadow of Sugar Loaf. t r I r - . - TWO: Machundo, Che! The Argentine Ar-gentine version is a silent whistle with left eye closed.
