Page Four CLOUDBUSTER Saturday, August 14, 1943 “V” FORMATION (Continued from page two) will be tough too, but you just wait and see—the Allies will win. You know, it wouldn’t surprise me if we went to a bowl. I know you’ll like this, we’ve bieen getting ready for our next game—with Italy—it’s coming up soon. Already had one scrimmage with a small team from Sicily— ran all over them. Some of the Axis Alumni heard about our powerful team and they put so much pressure on their coach, he quit, right in midseason. Never did think much of him as a coach, he didn’t treat his players right, lied to his Alumni too—that’s bad. His record is bad—always played weak teams. Doubt if he’ll ever get another coaching job. The other games on the schedule are tough but we’re already point ing for homecoming. Playing in Berlin this time,—Axis didn’t want it there but the Allies put on some outside pressure. We’ll be there. The Allied coaches are smart, they’ve been sending scouts over Berlin and they drop enough “stuff” all around to keep the Axis Alumni “restless.” You know what that means, that Axis Coach better look for another job. He’s another coach I don’t like,— nothing but a slave driver—plays favorites too—kicked some of his players off the team and only played his kinsfolk. Talk about a liar,—he’s tops—never tells his Alumni the truth and they never know what’s going on. The thing I didn’t like was the false stories he told about our coaches—just be cause he didn’t like our system. He’s a mean cuss, wants to win all the games, no matter how, and he made out his own schedule—all ex cept homecoming—he wanted to play on our field but our coaches outsmarted him and it’ll be in Ber lin, The Allies have a convincing way—confidentially, I think it’s the “V” formation, and I’m cer tain they’ll play in that bowl game against Tokyo—boy, do we have some surprises for them! ENLISTED MEN (Continued from page one) Reed Paterson, and from PhM2c to PhMlc Julian L. Baker, and Rob ert Eugene White advanced. James Dudley Brown advanced from SK3c to SK2c, and Donald Chambers moved up from HA/lc to PhM3c. Third Class Yeoman advancing to second include Henry Selfon, BASEBALL (Continued from page three) an infected foot, but Pesky, Gremp and Coleman played major roles in the Cloudbuster victory. Pesky came up with several nice plays at shortstop besides getting two hits in four times at bat; Gremp got three hits in four times up, and Coleman handcuffed the Bulls with four hits in the eight innings he pitched. The losers scored a run in the , second, and that is as close as they came to the Pre-Flighters, The . locals tallied once in the fourth on * two hits and a stolen base; three j in the fifth on three hits, and two bases on balls; one in the sixth on two hits; two in the seventh oH Ensign Ray Stoviak’s homer to left field, a walk, an error, an in field out and a wild pitch; and one in the eighth on a walk to Gremp I and a triple to left by Lieut. Alex ander Sabo. It was Coleman’s 10th victory against two reverses. He fanned eight men. Ensign Ray Scarbor ough, here for indoctrination training, hurled the last inning and struck out three men in a rov^ after allowing the first two hitters to face him to single. He pitched with the Washington Nationals of the American League before being commissioned in the Navy. Detachments Equal Attachments Here Detachments and attachments at this station were all even this week as five officers left and a like number reported aboard. Leaving for other bases wei’6 Lt.

ITALY (Continued from page one) island bastions, Crete, Leros, and Rhodes, that guard the direct sea approach to that land. If Salonika (at the head of the Aegean Sea) were to be captured by such a move the Balkans would be exposed to attack. Movement northward into Jugoslavia would aim at the Danube, Germany’s greatest internal artery, and at the vast bread lands in the Danu- bian basin. History might repeat itself if an army drove eastward from Salonika, for in September, 1918, an Allied drive knocked Bul garia out of the war and started the downfall of the Central Powers. Though the occupation of Italy may not yield opportunities for the land invasion of real centers of German strength, the air war against Germany can be carried on with great vigor from Italian bases. The entire eastern zone of Ger man war industries, now beyond the range of bombers based in Britain, can be attacked. Heavy industries in lower Austria would be exposed to devastating assaults. The Skoda works at Pilsen lie only 400 miles from Bologna. Even shorter flights would put Allied bombers over Nuremburg, Leip zig, and Augsburg. Ploesti, the Rumanian oil refining center and principal Axis source of lubricat ing oil and high test gasoline, is 600 miles east of Bari in the heel of Italy.
