WAX2003012601- ST.LOUIS, Jan. 26 (UPI) -- Political cartoonist Bill Mauldin, shown here in this undated photograph, who won his second Pulitzer Prize in 1959 at the St. Louis Post Dispatch, where he worked the drawing board, from 1958-1962, died on Jan. 22, 2003, in Newport Beach, CA at the age of 81. As a solider in World War II, Mauldin became famous when he gave newspaper readers back home a foxhole-level view of the front with his drawings of dogface GI's Willie and Joe. Those gained him his first Pulitzer Prize in 1945. At the age of 23, he was the youngest person to win the coveted journalism award. jg/bg/Handout UPI
