AERO STATION WORK
IS NOT DISTURBED

Not the least interference with the
work at the aeronautic station will
result from the storm, according to
announcement made yesterday, and
the droning of the motors over the
city offered concrete evidence that
no suspension is necessary.
Further investigation into the dam
age at the station indicates that it
is considerably less than at first es-
timated, and that instead of being
a result of damaged airplanes, is due
largely to damage to buildings and
roofs.
Though the airplanes We're injured
by the wind and water, it is stated
that they can easily be repaired, and
be in use again soon.

PLAIN BLACK CROSS
ION FACE OF MOON

Pensacolians who are superstitious,
and some who are not, looked with
apprehension at the moon last night,
in the belief that across its face a
black cross was to be seen. Numer-
Gus calls came to The Journal office
concerning the phenoma which was
due, apparently to the unusual clarity
of the atmosphere, which brought in
to high relief on the moons surface,
the shadows which are always present
in the orb.

Benson Beaten.
Another exhibition of close guard
ing~by the two bulwarks of the Will
mar defense, enabled the high school
basket ball team to squelch what lit
tie hopes Benson had of winning the
championship of this district, last Sat
urday evening. The game was play
ed at Benson, with Benson man ref
erecting, and one is forced to wonder
just what the excuse for the defeat
will be. Anyway the better team won,
and won in way that left no doubt
as to which quint was the best. Two
field baskets the first half and one the
last, together with couple of free
throws tells the tale of Benson's ef-
forts to penetrate the defense put
forth by Osmundson and Sather.
It seems the more crippled the loo.
al team is, the better exhibition of
basket ball they show. Saturday night,
Elmond Nelson was not in his-accus.
toned place. and Frye was ailing:
KIeve jumped into the game in place
of the former and gave splendid &C.

five times, not missing a pot shot

MORE TROOPS REACH FRANCE,
Troops and Supplies, Says Pe,slling,
Increase In Numbers. .e

With the American Army in
France, Nov. 1.-Gen. Pershing said
to the correspondents to-day: &
Troops and supplies are arriving
III increasing numbers"
Thanks 10 the French, British
and American navies," he continued,
the submarine to date has not
claimed the HE of a single AM srican
soldier on the troop ships bound for
France" The French officers he
said, were enthusiastic over the char
acter, intelligence and spirit Of the
young officers arriving in France to
continue their instruction, and the
American army is proud of them,
too" ,
The weather continues to be cold
and rainy. The American infantry,
men have had two diversions. The
first incident occurred near daylight.
The enemy, apparently thinking a
raid was imminent, opened up WITH
machine guns at the point where the
lines are closest. A stream Of buf-
lets whistled over the American first
line.
About the same time, French
troops on the American flank observ-
ed four Germans who we're cutting
the barbed wire defenses. A French
patrol succeeded in heading off the
Germans, capturing them all,
