Hoodoo Plays the Hero by Mel Pitzer
December, 1944
"A dog who causes unintentional havoc in an Allied airbase finally proves his value."

Kid Brother by David Goodis
December, 1944 

"A conscientious objector from a family with a long military tradition finally finds a reason to fight. This is a typical WW2 flag-waver, though slicker than most. Goodis excels in the dogfight sequence - vivid, gut-wrenching stuff. The touches of British life are straight out of "Mrs. Miniver", but no real harm in that."
