y. S. MARINE DOG SCHOOL ENLARGED tamp Lejeune Unit Being Moved To Larger, Bet ter Quarters RIVER. April 3—iff!—The United States Marine corps’ first ?,-d only dog training school here sl Camp Lejeune is growing so rapidly that it is being moved to larger and more suitable site of 3 former CCC camp on this res ervation. gore modern kennels and hos pital facilities are available for tie dogs at the new location, as well as convenient barracks, classrooms and recreation halls for their trainers. Although the Marines’ dog school was not started until the firs; of this year, the enlisted ca nines are reported to be making £ood headway in their “boot camp.” Paramount purpose of the train ing is to: furnish dogs for active marine fighting service and pro vide dog sentries for naval sta tions. Two marines are assigned to each dog, as trainer and attend ant. Doberman Pinschers, regarded as particularly well suited for ma rine service, are the favorite breed here so far. The first re cruit. however, was a handsome Boxer, Fritz, offered by his own er. Lieut.-Col. Edward B. Carney. After completion of his first three months in training here, Fritz probably will be promoted to the rank of corporal, as the first non commissioned officer dog in the corps. All the dogs here are voluntarily enlisted by their owners, at no cost to the government. Official records are kept for each dog, with daily entries on aptitude and progress. Before assignment to regular duty, the dogs must pass strict examinations. Every dog retains his original name, and at present there are four Dukes, a Baron and a Prince in the train ing camp. Each has his own ken nel with a name plate on it. Training work requires about five hours a day, at intervals, six days » week. Capt. Jackson H. Boyd, USMCR, of Southern Pines. N. C., is com manding officer and administra tor of the dog detachment. Direc tor of training for tie dog sVool is Capt, Samuel T. Brick, USMCR, of Baltimore and Rochester, N. V.. one of the founders of the Obedience Movement for Better Dogs in America.

CAMEL'S SENNA LAXATIVE SYRUP PFPsm Cake For Sea Hero After dinner on sharkmeat and beans, Seaman Basil D. Izzi, 20, of South Barre, Mass., survivor of a 83-day ordeal on a raft, in the At lantic, likes the idea of biting into a cake baked by Frances Hilbert In New York. He’s making a tour of defense plants. AMERICANS DESTROY MORE NAZI PLANES (Continued From Page One) now is trying night aerial attacks, using four-engined axis bombers for the first time in this sector. His latest armored thrust, in which he used 32 tanks, easily was beaten back this morning by 105 and 155-millimeter guns. The bat teries knocked out three tanks in the first concentration and followed with a barrage that sent the re maining tanks fleeing back to shel ter. An indication that Rommel is put ting out hopelessly-damaged tanks as decoys to get American batteries to waste ammunition and disclose their positions was seen in the fact that 15 tanks were left exposed in one area when they easily could have been hidden in adjoining wadis or gulches. "I watched these tanks for sev eral hours and, although we drop ped several artillery shells among them, they did not burst into flame nor did anyone either come out to them or leave them,” said Capt. Paul Gale, 25, of 27 Huron St., Lynn, Mass. ‘‘It looks like they either were trying to bluff us or throw' us off balance. In either case the scheme did not work.” Incensed at the Nazi bombers which in raids over a ten-hour per iod last night dropped scores of bombs which did little damage but cost them some sleep, American in fantrymen edged forward a half mile through the roughest kind of terrain. DRAFTING UF OLDtR MEN IN NON-VITAL OCCUPATIONS SLATED (Continued From Page One) cently to get men particularly into general or dairy farming. The new rule on non-deferrable occupations was listed as one of these steps Others included: An order that 4-F men (classi fied physically unfit) between 18 and 45 who have had dairy farm experience return to such work or possibly be inducted for limited military service despite physical disabilities. A request that draft boards and county agricultural war boards cir cularize men between 45 and 64 who have had dairy or general farming experience to return to such work. The new plan announced by President Roosevelt that men over 38 already in the army will be asked to get into agriculture or other essential activities before be ing released from the Army be cause of age. Hershey told draft boards that “the letters (letters to men with farm experience, to be written by draft boards) to registrants in class 4-F and those between the ages of 38 and 45 will inform them that if they do not contact the County War Board with the time prescrib ed that fact will be brought to the attention of their local selective service board so that consideration may be given to requesting waivers of physical disabilities and age or both, which would permit their in duction into the armed forces. Betters directed to registrants over 45 years of age will simply stress the need for dairy farm workers and urge them to return to work on farms which produce dairy products as their national du ty in furtherance of the war ef fort. I Wylie Expects Little Trouble From Draft Delinquents Here Little trouble is expected from draft board delinquents, U. S. Commissioner W. A. Wylie, who usually holds hearings on such cases, said Saturday, commenting on the 72 persons recently found without their registration or classi fication cards by the state highway patrol in a routine check-up. “I don’t know of a single case where a man was sent to jail in this area for draft delinquency,” the commissioner said. “Of course there have been several persons tried here for the offense, but if a man is willing to be inducted into the armed forces, sentencing him to jail is unnecessary, even if he has violated the law, because the real purpose of the law is in duction.” Commissioner Wylie said the nor mal way of dealing with reported or suspected delinquents, begins with an investigation by the FBI, who turn suspected offenders over to the U. S. District Attorney in the area. With the consent of the district attorney. a preliminary hearing is held before the commis sioner. “I try to see that such cases never reach the actual courtroom,” Commissioner Wylie continued. “And they usually don’t, for most of them are quite wdlling to go in the army, but for some reason, mostly ignorance I think, they were guilty of draft violations. There are very few cases of actu al wilful delinquency “For those persons who don’t be lieve in fighting themselves, con scientious objectors camps are pro vided or they may enter some branch of noncombatant duty in the armed forces or auxiliaries.” Commissioner Wylie said that to his knowledge there were no con scientious objectors registered in this vicinity. Sunset Park School Students Buy $2,438 Worth Of War Stamps The pupils at the Sunset Park school have bought over $2,438 worth of War Savings stamps over a period of five months, maintain ing a monthly average of over $487, officials of the school estimated Saturday.
