Show Local War Workers Appear In Movies mM Logan war workers are replacing re-placing the Hollywood movie stars on the silver screens and in such far off places as New Guinea. Staff Sergeant Sherman L. Sutton, son of Dr. and Mrs. D. J. Sutton of Logan, wrote to his parents on January 15 and told of seeing moving pictures taken at the Army Service Forces depot de-pot in Ogdeii. Part of the letter follows: "There- is one thing I want to tell you about. At the show the other night, movies were shown of the Ogden depot and of how the people from Cache Valley got up at 4 a. m. on Sundays to go down there and help out. "I recognized William C. England Eng-land and Jack Croft and they mentioned Mr. England in the show. Other parts of the picture showed scenes of the Utah State Agricultural college, the Union Pacific depot and the chamber of commerce building. It certainly cer-tainly made me homesick." Sergeant Sutton described the unique movie therter as follows: ''It is merely a clearing in the jungle. After the sun goes down it becomes pitch black and we just move our chairs from offices of-fices and go out and enjoy the show. Many times we have seen them during heavy rainstorms and some times the rain is so heavy it floods the generator and Uie show ends." Sergeant Sutton enlisted in the army nearly four years ago. He served at Fort Douglas and Spokane, Wash., and then went overseas to Australia where he was stationed for 19 months. For the past' four months he has been in New Guinea with the finance department. His brother, bro-ther, Seaman Third Class Warren War-ren Sutton, is serving' in the navy at Pearl Harbor. Sergeant Sutton also knows the importance -of buying war bonds in winning the war. For 20 consecutive months he has forwarded part of his pay to his parents for the purchase of bonds. |
