of the USO Army YMCA.
For this purpose the USO has
innouneed that it will welcome any
requests from those wanting a sol*

and enjoy the family gathering
that he would enjoy if he were
here. .. % £

caught him. I came in third with
old Number 18 that was nursing in*
juries from the battles of Rangoon.
We played with the thing like s cat
would wi'.h a mouse. Caught him
at 26,000 feet shd set him on fire
three times before we finally sent
him straight down for the crash. It

-laps Taught Us This"
‘“Red' Probst and I went about
200 miles down the Burma Road
yesterday, loaded with anti-person-
nel bombs and. of course, our ma-
chine guns. We found a few scat-
tered tanks and trucks . , . really
soma sport. Wo would machine-
gun them and then drop bombs as
does as possible Met some small
gun play, and the tasks (or teak*
ettca) would fire at us with 27 mm.
but they stopped short at soon as
wa brought our six-fifties to bear
on them. There wa found a tear
troop trucks. Whit man could get
out started running, and they
would just got food running speed
when the fragmentation bombs
would cut them down. Once L
would have thought it cruel and
moan, but now the Japs have
taught me to love killing thorn.
(Oh. yea, once I got too ‘ego’. and
dropped a bomb so tow that ptocaa
at it came hack up through my
'Wings)".

buy s seat in the United States
Senate through exorbitant cam-
paign expenditures. Dan Moody in
a statewide radio broadcast from
hare last night challenged his op-
ponents to reveal wnat they art

Flaying Senator W. Lae O’Deniel
as “an isolationist and would-be
obstructionist.’' and "a pmfaaslontl
politician who poses as a crusader
against professional polities,''
Moody accused O’Dantol of “evad-
ing the issues of the campaign and
of leaving unexplained his tocon-
He said that ODantol's claim
that he had backed the President
on every war measure was dis-
proved by the record. Moody catted
attention to the Senator's veto to
sand the selective service army
home as "a flagrant example of
O’Dantel’s defiance of the Presi-
dent and other leaden in our war
effort.”
Moody accused Judge Junes V.
