On O'Seas Tour
TOKYO Japan WAC Master
Sergeant Gertrude R. Dick and
her 73-year-old father Albert Hof
stetter have a high opinion of
the Army's compassionate interest
in the family problems of its sol
diers.
When the Tokyo Army Hospital
decided that the ailing dependent
needed further treatment in the
U. S. arrangements were made to
cut short Srgeant Dick's tour of
duty on Okinawa so she could fly
back with him.
"I promised Mother when she
died in 1939 that I would always
take care of Dad" said the WAC
non-com. "He became my depend
ent in 1950 and the Army has
made it possible for us to be to
gether most of the time since."
That has included a tour in Eur
ope when they visited the father's
birthplace in Zurich Switzerland.
There Mr. Hofstetter met a broth
er he hadn't seen for 50 years.
They had a rough trip when
Far East last September. Both hur
ricanes "Emma" and "Harriet"
crossed their path.
Sergeant Dick joined the Worn
en's Army Corps early in 1944.
Her home is at Seaside Calif.

rHE ARMORED SENTINEL FORT HOOD TEXAS
By Siegfried Lobel
NEW YORK Less than a year
ago at Brooke Army Medical Cen
ter San Antonio Pfc Peter Palm
er decided to try his luck at that
installation's local talent try-out
for the Army's annual Entertain
ment Contest. Today this same
Peter Palmer in civilian life has
the lead role in Broadway's newest
musical hit "Li'l Abner" which
acclaimed by critics is playing
to overflow audiences night after
night.
The jet propelled trip began of
course when Palmer won first
place in the local contest's singing
category. This assured him a spot
on the Fourth Army's Entertain
ment Contest. a two-day entertain
ment spree staged at Fort Hood
Texas and directed incidentally
by this writer. Singing "Granada"
Palmer triumphed again and the
judges' unanimous decision sent
him to the most decisive match:
the tough All-Army Entertainment
Contest at Fort Dix N. J.
At Dix against the elite Pal
mer kept a firm grip on his
winning streak and sang his
way straight into Ed Sullivan's
highly-polished "Toast of the
Town."
While on New York's "Toast"
stage he was completely unaware
that in another part of the city
two gentlemen were watching his
TV image with ever-mounting in
terest. These two the producer
and director of a coming musical
adaptation of A1 Capp's beloved
comic-strip "Li'l Abner" were
plagued with a peculiar problem:
after looking all over Lower Slo-
bovia they still had to find some
one to play the role of Li'l Abner.
And as Palmer sang they excitedly
told each other "Here is Li'l Ab
ner!" Then promptly embarking
on their private Sadie Hawkins
Day campaign they successfully
"landed" Li'l Abner a feat that
took the equally eager Daisy Mae
18 lean years.
I had an interview with Palmer
recently after an evening show.
"First of all" I said "congra
tulations. You're in a Broadway
hit the critics think you're great
so all in all you've come a long
way since the Service contests.
How does it agree with you"
"That's an easy question great.
Just great" he answered opening
the dressing room door. "A lot
as you say has happened since
I saw you last. After the Dix
Show by the way we all appeared
at the Joint Chiefs of Staff Show
at Quantico Va. But things REAL
LY started popping right after the
jfcd Sullivan Show."
"Most stage actors actually pre
fer the stage" I said next "How
do you feel about that? Do you
think the stage is particularly ex
citing?"
"It is all right. No doubt about
it" he promptly replied. "The
thrill of appearing before a "live"
audience never wears out because
there's always a new audience.
Also there's nothing like the mag
netic audience-performers contact.
You don't have that playing in
movies."
May Be Filmed
"Speaking of movies" I quickly
interjected "any 'scoop' for me
on that front?"
"Nothing definite he shrugged.
"There's some talk of Paramount
filming the play with the original
cast. If true it'll be another good
break all right."
What does he do in his spare
time if any?
Entertainment Contest Winner Here
Now Playing Lead In Broadway Hit
"I try to use it as best I can.
I realize there's a lot more for me
to learn so I'm studying voice and
acting."
Regarding his plans for the fu
ture he said "the play will run a
number of years of course. Mean

Peter Palmer a first place winner in the 1956 Fourth Army Enter
tainment Contest which was held here and Edith Adams (Daisy
May) as they appear in "Li'l Abner" Broadway's newest musical
hit. Palmer whose career started less than a year ago when he
won in the All-Army Entertainment Contest after winning here
has the lead in the live portrayal of A1 Capp's beloved strip.
New More Romantic Flynn
To Make Bow In 'Istanbul'
Moviegoers are in for quite a
surprise when they see "the new
Errol Flynn" in "Istanbul" the
picture in Technicolor and Cinema-
Scope co-starring Flynn and Cor
nell Borchers which opens at Thea
ter No. 4 tomorrow evening.
"I'm even a surprise to myself"
says Errol. "Imagine me in a. mov
ie with more love scenes than ac
tion scenes."
Nobody will argue with the fact
that Errol Flynn is among the top
screen lovers of all time but his
cinematic kisses and clinches in
variably followed an overwhelming
amount of good old-fashioned
swashbuckling.
"I never looked twice at a girl
"This time though it's different."
unless I saw an opportunity to duel
my way to her lips" he confesses.
sequences winning one and losing
one. In surprising contrast he
and Miss Borchers share no less
than five high-voltage love scenes.
"Actually this is just what. I
want" Flynn explains. "I'd like
to hang up the cape and sword for
good escape from history and ap
pear in modern-day stories. Now
and herewith I bequeath my jewel
ed scabbard and blade my shiny
black boots scimitar and brace of
dueling pistols to any one of a doz
en other swashbuckling actors
and he's welcome to it."
In "Istanbul" Director Joseph
Pevney estimates the romantic
moments between Flynn and Miss
Borchers will occupy approximate
ly 900 feet of film. The fight se
quences will require slightly less
than 600.
"One of the exciting scenes is
a fire that destroys a big build
ing" Flynn points out. "I don't get
to the scene of the fire though
until the blaze is under control.
That's something that never hap
pened to me in the movies be
fore."

"I don't know whether I'm much
of an authority there" he laughed
"but one thing is definite. When
you're in entertainment or trying
to "crash" it try to be seen as
often and by as many people as
possible. Participate in every tal
ent show possible for you can
never tell what'll happen."
I had to admit that in show bus
iness you can never tell what'll
happen. At this moment "Li'l Ab-
ner's" entrenchment on the theatri
cal front is as solid as that of its
comic-strip daddy's in America's
press. As for Palmer who has
crowded a number of career high
lights into one short year this is
not only an achievement butalso
a breathing spell affording him an
opportunity to refuel. If he uses
it well as he shows every indi
cation of doing with his serious
studies this current high spot
which many consider a worthy ca
reer pinnacle will only be the be
ginning.
