HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 21.—(P)—Six or seven boxing bouts, a
couple of wrestling matches, two or three famous former
champions—and Betty Grable.
That's the program arranged by the movie star, George
Raft, to bring entertainment with a wallup to army and navy
camps in California.
Raft, unfolded the schedule at a dinner Tuesday night. Give him
credit for hatching the idea. As he put it, in a frank way:
"Most everyone in Hollywood wants to do something for the boys
in the camps, but it isn't everyone who can do something, like sing,
or dance or do magic. Once I heard someone say it was enough for
some movie star to merely show up and give the boys a big wave and
d smile--
"I said nuts’ but loud. If you get up in front of those boys,
Jou ve ?ot to produce.”
Raft paying all bills, plans to put 011 the shows at a different camp
each week. The first will be Monday night at March field
Rafts interest in sports is genuine. He's one Hollywood actor who
