[PHOTO OF 4SJ and Tuomi] Above are pictures of Walt Daugherty and Sgt Forrest Ackerman with Dorothy Tuomi. Daugherty is associated with Warner Bros, and the picture shows him as he appears in their current production "Objective Burma" Sgt Ackerman was affiliated with the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences, Miss Tuomi - the gal in the clutches of the perennial bug-eyed monster - is 19 years old and is known as "The Finnish Nightengale'! Speaking of motion pictures - Hundreds of important factors are essential to the making of a successful motion picture - cast, direction, photography, clothes, weather conditions, to mention but a few - but there is one very important element which never receives any credit or publicity whatsoever. This almost forlorn factor is superstition and loyalty of that large company of unheralded backstage men - the crew. Forming by far the largest percentage of employees on a picture, the entire group is intensely loyal and its Individual members even practice everyday superstitions in order to promulgate successful conclusion of their picture and to promote unity. Take for instance, the gang of grips, carpenters, prop men, electricians, etc., currently working in "Objective Burma," Errol Flynn's new picture for 9
