Addreeeing the Exchange Club meeting last night at Hansen'a restaurant, Profewor Ralph F. Bischoff called for a realistic policy for this country after Ui* war, de- claring we must not only Join some sort of league of nhQons, but must also see thst it is backed up by force If necessary. ‘1 hope we will, be realists enough, to take over the Pacific islanda ^ are now conquering from Jiapah,” he declared, “it ould be far Better for us to have them than either Japan or Great Britain.” Break Vp Prusei* Taking up the all important queation of what should bS done with Germany after the war, Pro- fessor Bischoff recommended that Prussia be broken up because It haa been the seat of the Influential class of militarism and the back- bone of Nazism. The rest of Ger- many could be allowed to remain as a whole. Declaring that Japan like Ger- many will lose all its conquered territory, as well as its mandated islands, Korea and Formosa, he cautioned that the powers at the peace table will have to face Japan’s problems realistically. He pointed out that Japan la not self- sustaining from the etandpoint of of a lasting peace. Theee demands of Russia, from the ajilatorlcal etandpoint, are thoroughly valid, he stated.

Smiling Jimmy, after 12 years a aenator and- 14 years a member of the House, went on the highest c5urt of the land a few yeara ago, believing he was "fixed for life.” Came the war and President Roosevelt, who had called on his friend many times In-the-past“to do trouble-shooting for him, draft - ed him once more. He took Byrnes off the court and made him director of the Office of War Moiblization, ^the m ost'j)cw- erful wartime ji.b ever held by a civilian in the nation’s, history, ex- cept that of the chief executive himself.

Addreeeing the Exchange Club meeting last night at Hansen'a restaurant, Profewor Ralph F. Bischoff called for a realistic policy for this country after Ui* war, de­claring we must not only Join some sort of league of nhQons, but must also see thst it is backed up by force If necessary.

‘1 hope we will, be realists enough, to take over the Pacific islanda ^ are now conquering from Jiapah,” he declared, “it

ould be far Better for us to have them than either Japan or Great Britain.”

Break Vp Prusei*Taking up the all important

queation of what should bS done with Germany after the war, Pro­fessor Bischoff recommended that Prussia be broken up because It haa been the seat of the Influential class of militarism and the back­bone of Nazism. The rest of Ger­many could be allowed to remain as a whole.

Declaring that Japan like Ger­many will lose all its conquered territory, as well as its mandated islands, Korea and Formosa, he cautioned that the powers at the peace table will have to face Japan’s problems realistically. He pointed out that Japan la not self- sustaining from the etandpoint of

of a lasting peace. Theee demands of Russia, from the ajilatorlcal etandpoint, are thoroughly valid, he stated.

Flood Tide of American Tanks and Armor 20 Miles Wide Pouring Through Gap in Nor­mandy Lines; 84th German Army Corps

, Is Cut into Little Knots of Resistance.Supreme Headquarters Al­

lied Expeditionary Force, July 28.—<JP>—A flood tide of American tanks and armor 20 miles wide poUred through the gap in the Normandy lines today to within two miles of Coutances, field dis­patches said,‘ threatening that choke point of disorderly German retreat with * imminent capture.

Lieut Gen. Omar N. Bradley’* apearheada, slaahlng more than 11 mlica deep aince the atart of tha armored puah Wednesday and apraadlng out behind the enemy flanka, bad out the S4th German Army corpa into little knots of resistance.

Bfany Eaoape from Pocket But many of the corps appar­

ently had escaped already from the Coutances pocket where Brit­ish newspapera estimated 50,000 to 70,000 of the enemy were be­ing preaaed against the sea.

4-Year BasisFor Program

(Continued from Page One)the United States la to assume the post-war world leadership, carry­ing on ’’tremendous economic re­lationships with the rest of the world.” The 76-year-oId ranking minority member of the House Foreign Affairs committee said he tliought Dewey agreed,

Eaton reported he discussed with Dewey aid for the atricken popula­tion of Europe, which the repre­sentative said ought to be on a •’gift” basis at first, but without any attempt on the part of the United States to become a perman­ent world ’’Santa Claus.”

The Republican nominee, mean­while, dumped in the governor’s conference pot a wide group of subjects. Including several on which the party already had taken positive stands In its platform.

Dewey said the governors would be asked to speak out on the regu­lation of ell kinds of insurance, which the platform said should be retained by the states. He men­tioned state versus Federal con­trol of the National Guard. Plat­form drafters urged that the G ua^ be under state direction, with FM- eral training and equipment . /

Although he listed admlXlstra- tion of the unemployment^service as a problem, the party previously had gone on record fpr return of this branch to state cbntrol.

In the fields of public expendi­tures, Federal-state taxation, health, laboi^-/ relations, public works, agriculture and veterans affairs, howeyer, the governors ap­parently had the widest latitude to approve pblicy statemeijts that would form, with the platform, a campaign charter on domesne af­fairs.'

Platform planks on ’ most df these were, general in their nature. They did not go to the core of the “conflict” between local and Washington governments which Dewey asserted had created "chaos” on the home front and had led to a ’’disgraceful spectacle of petty bickering and constant warfare" which he proposed to wipe out if he became president.

Chungking, July 28—<>P)—l^aj. Gen. C. C. ’Tseng, Chinese‘Army spokesman, declared today that the Canton-Hankow rail junction of Hengyang was entirely in Chi­nese hands and that both Japanese and Chinese were rushing up rein­forcements for a decisive batUe.

Previously it had been reported the Japanese had broken into the city and engaged the defenders in street fighting.

The Chinese high command com­munique said some Japanese forces had been wiped out south of Chi­nese recaptured Leiyang, '’‘'South­ernmost point o> advance in the Japanese grand strategy to split China in two. Chinese trodps were said to have killed more than 300 Japanese in repelling an attack southeast of 'Yungteng, - 45 mijes northwest of Hengyang.

Begin Assault on Pingsiang The Japanese began an aaaault

on Pingsiang, a town in Kiangsi province 95 milea northeast of Hengyang. which they have been trying to take in an effort to safe­guard the left flank of their forces in Hunan province.

General ’Tseng said the Japanese had 11 divisions and several mixed brigades totaling 250,000 troops in the battle of ..Hunan, but they were using them in rotation so that the strength actually en­gaged In combat jst one time w u very much smaller.

escape;. Fighter pilots shot down several bombs but one glided near­ly a mile after receiving a burst from fighter guns over the town and pancaked near m coalyard.

"The town was aaved by a mira­cle.” a apectator aaid.

Throughout the night at another spot, rescue workers dug for nine persons buried in a hoii.se. They i were guided only by the cries of the victims.

Apartment Houses Hit A number of apartment houses

were hit last night, but occupants were In shelters and unhurt.

The Food Ministry issued extra supplies to cafes and restaurants In badly bombed districts.

Bomb attacks during the night had tapered off shortly before midnight and it was comparatively quiet until dawn.

A number of the robots were shot dowti *>y anti-aircraft fire and night fighters. One crashed in a residential section after be­ing hit by a fighter.

There was some speculation that the new secret weapon about Which the Germans have been boasting might be some new type of huge rocket bomb—perhaps 10 times the size of the . one-on V-1 now being used against England.

Amtl-Alrcreft unit formerly ata- tioned here, weie apprehended by local police Wednestey night in the theft of gac.'Mne. They were accompanied by two local women. Whose disposition awaits action of the military authorities in the lol- diera’ cases.

A call came to police headquar­ters that evidently someone was attempting ta break into the for-

] mer Olson garag' on Main street opposite Armory street. Night pa­trolmen Walter Cassells and Ed­ward Dwyer Investigated and found the soldiers putting gas into an automobile from containers. All four and the women companions were brought to the police heed- quarters for questioning.

were sergeants, one. a corporal and the other a private, first class. ’The women are local rceider.ta. it was learned that the six planned to take a joy-ride in the car which was owned by one of the won en. The soldiers were to provide the galsoUne. I t seems that the soldiers had broken into tanks at the rear of the State Armory, poured the^ gasoline into containers and then

‘ ca'.;hed the supply In nearby bushes.

'They had retrieved their hidden gasoline and were in .the act of re­plenishing the supply in the wom­an’s car whet, the police came, along. The soldiers were held the station for the mUitary aupibr- itics and the women were released on their own raco^Ucaite^ It is understood the soldiere d to face a court martial trial af Bradley Field tonight

Rail Travel Soaring; Jam Vacation Spots

‘DGn’i Travel’ <^olombian RevoltS I - d e r Convicted• To Handle More.

By James MarlowWashington, July 28.—VP)—It’s

Jnld-summer now and—In spite of aU government appeals for them to stay off toe trains and spend their vacation at home— Ameri­cans are traveling at a tremen­dous rate.

To understand what they are doing In this third year of war, when automobile travel has been cut to toe bone, take tt etep by step:

packed to Capacity1. The American Hotel Asso­

ciation says the Rummer resorts— from Pennsylvania' up through New England' and went to Minne­sota—are packed to capacity.

One representative of the asso­ciation said that toe only thing preventing this from being toe aU- tlme record-breaking vacation year is the lack o f suuimer re- aorte' facilities—like manpower, linens, and so on—to handle even greater crowds.

2. The Office of Defense Trans­portation has been hammering away at a campaign to keep peo­ple off toe trains. It ’s A "don’t travel” campaij^.

Seen “Having Some Effect"One official of ODT said he

thinks toe campaign Is "having aome effect" and that toe "rate of Increaeo In railroad travel la slowing down."

It is difficult to see—In view of toe capacity crowds at summer re- ■orts—that toe campaign is hav ing much effect.

If anyone has any Illusions about curtailment In railroad trav­el, here are eome figures for the month of June running from 1939 through last month:

In June, 1939, the Association of American Railroads reported 2,- 074,985,000 passenger miles travel ed; In June, A940 —2,069,916,000: In June,’ 1941—2,569,670,000; In June, 1942—4,238,572,000; in June, 1943—7,813,224,000. And in June, 3944, although figures are not com­plete, the association estimates the passenger miles traveled toUiled A500;000,00(), almost a record- breaker.

Yet, C. H. Buford, vice president of toe association, says the rail roads could handle in excess of nine billion passenger miles.

July Figure Will Be Higher Railroad men figure that the

average Journey of a passenger is 100 nUles—and this includes troop movements, commuters’ daily trips and all—so 100 divided into 8,500, 000,000 passenger miles for June means there were about 85 mjllion fares on the trains last month. The July figure undoubtedly will be higher.

But ODT, ■ to bolster its cam­paign to keep people off the triiins, several months ago started this ad­ditional campaign which still is under way:

ODT warned that passengers making Pullman reservations might—in case the care were need­ed to move wounded soldiers re­turning from Europe— have to be evicted from their berths or have reservations cancelled at toe last minute and thu^ find themselves Stranded.

Dlffetence Very Probable I t is very probable—and this la

said after serious examination that neither toe Army nor toe rail­roads agreed with ODY that such a warning about Pullmans was necessary. • ’

For Buford said today:"The railroads have plans made

for taking care of wounded sol­diers so that there should be.no need for interference with civilian tnvel.

"We know of no case where passenger has been evicted — or has had to be evicted—to make room for a wounde$,„8oldier. Nor do we know of any case in which a Pullman reservation has been cancelled because that reservation was needed to move a wounded soldier.”

The same ODT official said i “very' limited” number of evic tiohs and. cancellations have oc­curred in a “few iso la te cases.”

May Be Necessary In Fntnre Both ODT and Buford Said It ft

possible such extreme measures might be necessary sometime in toe future although Buford said he did not think it likely.

Buford says he belleven—a belief shared by ODT—that passenger travel is leveling off. There are no figures available to back up Siich a belief.

Perhaps toe full significance of toe increased passenger travel can be seen-from th is ;.. Troon m'ove- ments have tapered off a bit but toe total number of passengers carried by toe roads has increased. That increase must be made up of ctylllans.

In 1943 organized troop move- ' ments on the railroada averaged 1,500,000 a njento. This year they are averaging 1,250,000,. and de cllnlng.

Bogota, Colombia, July 28—VP) —Col. Diogenes Gil has been con­victed aa toe leader of an abortive revolt July 10 during which Presl' dent Alfonso Lopes and oeveral of hft cabinet mlnfttera w en held prisoner, and has been sentenced to 10 years Imprisonment, the gov­ernment press office announced to­day.

(Convicted with Gil, toe an. nouncement stated,, were Lieut. Col. Luis Agudelo aind MaJ. Jose Figueroa, who were sentenced to eight and seven years imprison­ment respectively. All three were stripped of their military rank.

President Lopes and hft minis­ters were seized as they witnessed Army maneuvers at Paato in southern Colombia. They were released unharmed after loyal troops quelled toe uprising, which was confined to only a few garrl' sone.

It Is rather the time to Inspire a grim determlna- atlon to go forward 'and-win the war."

Vandenberg- had said that 'chances for an early German col­

Admits Loss of Kaunas The German high command an­

nounced the evacuation of Brest- Litovsk in its daily communique, and soon aftervsard toe Trans- ocean agency admitted the loss of Kaunas, toe old Capital of Lithu­ania.

Nearest Russian troops were within 340 miles o f. Berlin lUelf with toe capture of Garwolin, 30 miles southeast of Warsaw.

Other Russian triumphs were announced in a record splurge ot orders of the .(lay b y Marshal Stal­in coloring Moscow’s skies with many-colored flares for five hours until midnight.

These were the victories:1. Brest Litovsk, historic city of

50,000 on the western Bug river, 112 miles east of Warsaw. Moscow has not yet confirmed its cf.pture but it virtually was surrounded last night and has been leagues behind the westbound front for two weeks. Railroads radiate from there to Warsaw, all sections of East Prussia, Moscow, .Minsk and Wilno. There in 1918, a peace treaty in the last war removed re-' volt-tom Russia from belligerent Allied ranks. ^

Invested for Fortnight2. Kaunas, former capital of

Lithuania and its second largest city with 152,365 population. Kau­nas had been invested for a fort­night or more: toe loss last night of Siaulai made its position un­tenable. It lies 55 rail miles from toe East Prussia frontier, half toe way there from captured Wilno which became the Lithuanian cap­ital by Russian decree during toe

3. Lwow, third city of old Po­land and one of Europe’s greatest rail centers, toppled last night af' ter days of street fighting. The city of 317,700 Is on toe Bucha- rest-Warsaw-Berlin railroad and was a barrier to Czechoslovakia and Hungary. Moscow’s Izveatla Mid Lwow still was bunting from German demolitions and that "doz­ens Of thousands of innocent peo­ple” had been slain in a Nazi reign of terror.

Tests are divided into three groups — basic, pre-Expert and lastly, the Expert Infantryman tests themselves. By the time the first two are completed the Ex­pert testa seem simple, but trick­ily so, because only half of toe men qualify on all of them.

Basic tests usually start with firing of the soldier’s personal weapon — the rifle, carbine or pis­tol—at fixed targets. Afterward the doughboy passes through a transition course, firing at silhou­ette targets in wooded areas. Speed and accuracy of fire form the basis for qualification.

Special TestsIf he is a member of an anti­

tank or heavy weapons company, he also must qualify with his unit’s special arms—machine gun, morUr, etc. Then may follow fa­miliarization firing with many, other weapons the soldier is eX' pected to be able to use. Another group of testa requires him to master the use of the hand gre- nade.

There is a lot more to toe infan­try, however, than just learning to fire guns and hurling grenades. The soldier is required to march nine miles in two hours and 25 miles in eight, while carrying full field equipment on his back. A trip through mud and barbed wire under machine gun fire in the in­filtration course, and through toe

physical condition. Included are a aoO^yard sprint, a 35-yard dash carryii^ a man pig-a-back, and such physical exercises as burpees and runm ^ on rough ground. With these behind him, toe soldier is permitted Nto demonstrate his prowess on .th«K assault course, armed with rifle and bayonet. The 76th Division boasts some of the most difficult coursek yet laid out

Having demonstrated he is top-notch field soldier, he must prove that he is equally as good a man in garrison. Ho is questioned on military discipline and cour­tesy, and his general appearance is carefully examined to make cer­tain that he keeps himself and his equipment as a soldier should— neat, clean and in good repair.

Should he pass all these suc­cessfully, toe soldier may consider himself one of the best Uncle Sam can turn out—eligible to wear the silver flintlock that is toe symbol of toe Expert Infantrymsm.

plied. The victory placed the Rus­sians 75 miles northeast of the East Prussia city of Tilsit, 83 miles northeast of the Baltic port of Memel and 125 miles northeast o f toe East Prussian capital o f Konlgsberg. Tilsit was bombed last night and Moscow said five military trains were destroyed.

5. Daugavpils, third city of Lat' via with 45,160 population.

6. Bialystok, 110 miles northeast of Warsaw, which had long been surrounded and by passed. Its 60,- 000 residents' made it old Poland’s 13th city.

Approaching OU Area7. Stanislawow, guardian city to

Czechoslovakia and Hungary. Its fajl and other nearby gains in the Carpathian foothllla placed the Russian^ within 13 miles of the Oarpatoo-Ukralne sector of Oechosloyakia which Hungary annexed by German largest, Rua- sians here were approaching the Drohobyez-Boryslaw oil area to the northwest.

8. Rezekne, a railroad Junction in Latvia, 52 miles northeast of captured Daugavpils.

9. Garwolin, a center, 30 milea southeast of Warsaw-

10. Other Russian troopa broke Into Siedlce, another call center 50 milea due east of Warsaw where street fighting was In progress.

All these tremendous achieve­ments gave ejermany her. blackest day of toe nearly five years of war. The conquests were never match­ed in the peaks o f the German blitzkrieg (lightning war).

The picture was one of German collapse along a meandering front of 1,000 miles from toe wooded shores of the Gulf of Finland—an arm of the Baltic sea—to toe Car­pathians. Both northeast and aoutoeaati ' bf Warsaw, toe Rus­sians were on broad plains lead Ing Into toe very heart- of toe Reich, and there were no major natural barriers between.

1,632 Towne FaU Upwards of 1,632 towns fell to

more ib*n 1,500,000 marching men in toe front ranks of toe eight great Soviet Army groups'. The advance was two miles sn hour in places.

Moscow made no immediate es­timate of fresh German caaualtlea. Earlier in toe week, a Moscow announcement listed 58(V,000 Ger­mans killed or captured since June 23 by five, o f toe eight Army groups alone. London ehtlmated that at least 50,000 Clermana had been besieged in toe newly cap­tured fortress cities; toe flna( count may exceed that by many thousands.

The position on the Vistula riv­er which flows through Warsaw still was obscure. The Russians had reached it on a wide frOTt yesterday, and a-Moscow diyateh said too 600-foot stream had been opanned. German broadcasto said several Soviet speartieaM had reached toe western bank. The series of official announce ments from Stalin lMt ®^ht. h o ^ aver, did not specify that toe Vis­tula had been c r o ^ .

Written for NEA Service A skinned knee’ is one of the

common injuries with which the home nurse has to deal, but it may be quite serious if it is not prop­erly treated. A doctor’s advice should always be sought If the in­jury is extensive.

Since a skinned knee usually is toe result of a fall on toe ground, it is likely to have a good deal of dirt embedded in it. Wash this off with soap and water, using sterile cotton or a soft cloth to brush it lightly. Dry the injury with sterile cotton or gauze and apply what­ever antiseptic toe doctor has ad­vised you to use. After this has dried, cover toe wound with sterile gauze (not cotton) and bandage, or strap the dressing on with'ad­hesive tape.

Make a CrutchIt is difficult to make a roller

bandage stay on a knee, -because the action of toe leg has Jt tend­ency to loosen i f and make it slip. It is much easier to use a trian­gular bandage on this Ind of an injury if you do not have adhesive tape.

A triangular bandage may be made from a square of old mus­lin about 20x20 Inches, depend­ing on toe size of the injured per­son. '•

Fold toe square diagonally from comer to comer. Place the diag­onal fold above toe knee and let toe point hang down over the knee. Pass the .ends of the bandage to toe back and cross toem, bringing them around to the front again, below the kneecap. Tie toem securely over , the point of the bandage, preferably with a square knot that will not slip.

Sometimes a crutch is needed temporarily to help the accident victim get around. An Improvised one can easily to made from an old wom-oiit brooiBe Trlni th® bruan into a curve that wUl fit well un­der toe arm, and cover it with a thick pad to make it comfortable. TTie broom handle can be cut o® to make It the right length.

Expect Political Campaign To Be Largely Over Radio

New York, July 28—(d>)—Poll-^91,638.910 was paid to toe net-Uca via toe microphone to ex­pected by radio men to assume a more active part'toan usual In toe 1944 campaign. They attribute this in part to toe fact that tbe presidential candldatee iff toe ma­jor pfuriiea both have “ voice ap­peal’’ and in part to wartime con- dlttons.

Ae far as toe networks are eonoemed. toe broadcast cam­paign, it is believed, will consist mainly o f speeches by toe princi­pals and their leading oupportera. Some will come from political ral- Hee, but a considerable number may be out and out broadcasts, with toe vlelble audience secon­dary, because of travel restric­tions.

When toe air campaign will get under way in earnest has not been announced pending comple­tion of preliminary arrangements by toe national committees. Mean­while, both committees have set up radio departments, Henry Turnbull heading that at the Re- pubUcana and Lieonayd Renisch the Democrats.

The, networks classify such broadcasts after toe national con­ventions adjourn in the same cate­gory as any commercially spon­sored program. How much is to be speqt this time is yet to be determined. In 1940 a total of

works for all jxilitlcal broadcaata. ’This was divided 8809,606 to NBC, 8535,406 to CBS and 8298.- 898 to MBS. The NBC figure includes toe BLU, which was then a part o f that network.

By Jack Band (AP Sports Writer)

Rookies come and rookies go but Mort Cooper’s powerful right ann sUn represents much o f the pitch­ing strength of toe pennant-bound St. Louie Cardinals.

The husky Red Bird from Web­ster Groves, Mo.. staggered through the early season and was batted off too bill three tones In a row A he took a back seat to George Munger, Harry Brecheen and toe veteran Max Lanier.

Mort answered toe “What’s toe matter with Cooper?” remarks by opening e spurt on May 38 that has produced 11 wins In 12 starts and boosted him Into a tie with Bucky Walters at toe Reds for most shutouts with fivep

As toe Cards opened up a J.4 1-2 game lead on Cincinnati, their longest margin of the year. Coop­er hurled a two-hit shutout agalnat the Phlla for a 5-0 decision over Kep Raffensberger, after Harry Brecheen had wobbled to an 8-7 verdict over Bi)) Lee in tbe opener of a double.

'Moored 108 Runs Xn Cooper’s sensational string,

the Cards have scored IQS rune, an a-verage o f nine per game, in­cluding such '.opsided totals os 18-0, 16-0 and 10-2. Chicago, beat­en 11 times In a row by St. Louis, is the only National League team Cooper has not stopped in boost­ing his win record to 13-4. He was belted out by toe Cubs in a game eventually taken 10-9, and did a relief chore that brought no re­ward. 9

Ray Mueller’s double in the eighth inning boosted Cincinnati back into second place by a 4-2 nod over Boston. Pittsburgh was rained out at New Yoric, ar was Chicago at Brooklyn. Rookie Jim Konatanty did toe pitching for the Reds to decision reliefer Ira Hutch­inson.

Boston moved up by trimming Detroit, 6-1, on Tex Hughson’s six-hitter, earning him toe honor 61 becoming the first big leaguer to win 16 this season.

Oldsters and Youngsters To Meet Again on the West Side Diamond.

A card reached our desk this morning from Jeff Koelsch the Hill Billie leader who sends his regards from Lake Winnlpesaukee in New Hampshire. We all hope Jeff will enjoy himself but on the other hand we warn all not to mention the West Sides’ 1 to 0 win 'over his club the other evening.

The Oldsters and the Youngsters will play a return match next Tuesday night at 6:15 at the oval. The first game, played about two weeks ago ended in a decisive vic­tory for the Oldsters. Jim Blanch* ard led the old timers with George May, Pete Klclcher and Buck By- cholski belting them around to the tune of 13 to 7. Tlie youngsters are hot on their trai . They have been asking for this return bout but have been unable to get the oval up to this time.

The youngsters known as the Silk City Stars want to make it a fivcrgame aeries but feel that it would be too much for the old boys. The Oldsters may accept their of­fer "as one beating deserves an­other,” Pete Hansen remarks.

CAP Cadets Play North Eijd Firemen

Cellar Dwellers Confi* dent They Can Nose Out Smoke Eaters for First Softball Win.

Horseebow games are in prog­ress nightly at toe West Side Play­ground and one of the faqpiliar faces seen at toe pita nightly has been Ssm WUaon. Sam is thinking soriolUly o f, challenging Champ Georgettl to a match In the future for the town tiUe. ’ .

’The cellar dwellera, the CAP Cadets, will appear In tonight’s Softball League clash at the North End playground when they meet the North Elnd Firemen. The game will start at 6:30 with Herb Stev­enson calling the balls and strikes ss usual.

The Cqdets, a group of young­sters, are aiming for their fir.st league victory, and the lads are confident that before many more moons, a win will ■ be registered and. the Firemen are as good, an opponent as any. These smung- sters have playeu agalQst heavy o<lda all'season long as one thing has popped up after another, the main disappointment has -been toe failure of toe players to appear on nights that games are scheduled. Now that eome of their troiiblez aie over the Cadets will attempt to do an about face and start win­ning bail games.

The Firemen have a veteran and well aeaaoned team. For some reason tbe team has not clicked in the style that they are noted for and toe result bas been several de* feats that should have been regis­tered as wins.

Ths smoke eaters must win to­night’s clash to remain in tbe running for first round honors and a red. hot game is expected to take place at' the Y field when these two toanu tangle.

Only M iu Fryberg must have talked shop with Dr. Levin In an unobserved Moment, because he said before we'parted at midnight, " I have asked Miss Fryberg to help me at the field dressing sta­tion. I hope you are all In accord. W e ’ll Ifeave early In the morning.”■ I couldn’t help bursting out In dibAppointment, ” I ’d hoped you'd be a mlndreader, doctor, and choose me.”

"Pertiaps next time,” he con­soled. -

"There will, be no next time,” Miss F r^ e r g . interrupted him sharply. will bs out there for the duration. I hair* the right ex­perience for auch a job.”

She. certainly didn't intend to sound ambig;uous but We couldn't help being a'ware of th* under­tone in her voice.

I gave way instantly, "A ll right. I ’ll never Interfere.”

‘Thanks,” she said. “We haV* worked well together, girls, but you can get along without me. We'll meet again when the war is over.” With that she left In her determined way.

Strange, 1 didn't feel anj pity for her though I could imag;ine what she was going through. You can’t feel pity for life itself. Youth will always be 'victor in the bat­tle of sexes! I t ’s One of the brazen laws o f nature. The elders have to seek other compensation. We usu­ally find It in work. Blessed be our work!"

Two Weddings

Chapter X X IChristmas Is over. New Year’s

Is over, and we are In the middle Of January Mali and Dr. Di Voto ca'me from tho front for vhat they thought would be a brief holiday. But Dr. Merrill decided t o ‘relieve them for a month and Dr. Levin la ready tq go. Me has not yet chosen -his assistant nurse, arid I hop* he can read my thoughts and will ask me to go with hlM.

paptain Peters Is out o f th* woods. A fter days and nights of agony, hovering between life and death, he caihe to and found the strength to open his ayes. When he saw Elizabeth h* smiled. Then he closed them again. But we knew he was going to fight through. W ill power and belief in life are the greatest curatives of all.

As soon as Captain Peters could talk he said to Elizabeth,“ I might have been wounded at many .other sectora of the front, but I wanted it here and the wish was granted. That proves I ’m a privileged char­acter. It also proves that iny thoughts have power. Now I will think hard about two more things: to get well quickly, and to get married as soon aa jmu have time for the ceremony.”

To Dr. Merrill he said, "See, poc, what others call a deadline Is for me a litellne. I have to be married by Ftp . 1, and on my way t the front by March 1, crisp and crunchy for the spring offensive.”

“You h a ve 'm y blessing,” Dr. Merrill consented, "but first I would relax.” '

“That’a all I ’ve done since I came here. lan’t there some drug that win speed up the healing of these damn wounds?”- "N ot that I Imow of.”

"Then at least let me have the whole alphabet o f 'vitamins. From what I ’m told I should be rarin’ to go in no tlm* at all!”

Elizabeth 1* constantly busy about him. He must certainly -have heard " I love you” In British by now.

We are always, looking for new ways to boost morale, so we seize upon every small occasion as a causa for celebration. Once, in the midst of s farewell party boys who were ready to be sent home to the states. Dr. Merrill sprang a surprise '-that stole the show. A fter th* men— well shaven, excited and noisy with- anticipation — were seated around the dinner table, he rose to his feet and lifted his hand to call for silence. There was a new* and joyful twinkle in his eyas.

“Friends,” he said. " I am usu­ally too shy -to speak In public, but today I feel an urgent desire tc brag about a well-kept secret. Our secret, Yvonne.” And he tunied toward the girl who had undergone auch a miraculous transfonnation In the last _ few months. There was nothing of the fllrtatiousi superficial Yvonne left, at all. in her place.was a ma­ture, deep-feeling woman, humbled by love and her own happiness.

“W e are engaged to be mar­ried,’’ Dr. Merrill went on. “We ore bold- enough to believe in per­sonal happiness even under the thunder o f the cannons ' and we Intend to marry as soon as we can get hold o f a chaplain. That’s our secret and we’re sharing it with ^ u even as we want to share our

. happiness with you.”Though he appeared aa com­

posed and poised as ever, you could sense his Inner satisfaction. Serious men have a way of show- ir:, happiness by not showing It. He dHdn't put his arm sround Yvoon* nor did he touch her h u d . He Simply sat down at his place again and continued eating his salad. But the rays o f his content­ment wanned the whole hall.

Showers o f congratulations, good wishes, speeches, questions and Jokes poured dowr on our ‘ ‘young couple,” till Yvonne, after a rain o f kisses, ostentatiously wiped the lipstick from her cheeks and im plor^, “Please, girls, let me taste Some hot food. Don’t ever believe that- love ruins the appe­tite !”

Sense and NonsenseAs the Years Go By!

In our youth we count the years and proudly add the fraction;

But, alas as time goes by w* lean toward aubatraction.

And then, foraooth, as years roll on, and we're .done cutting ca­pers,

W e pile up all the years again and put It in. the papers.
