COMMUNITY SING
 VERY ENJOYABLE 7@ Numbers by Advent Choir and MemOli's Band Fea-
 ture Programme

Yesterdays community sing in Capi- tol park vas said by many of the regu- lar attendants to have been especially enjoyable. Director Robert Lawrence expressed himself as greatly pleased with the playing of the band conducted by Philip Memoli, also with the Church of the Advent solo quartet choir, and particularly with the Spirit of Victory harmonized for the quartet by Choir master Fred L. Grambs The composer ot the Spirit of Victory" H. E. Cogswen, is the supervisor of music in the public schools Of Washington and he hoped when he wrote the piece that it might be deemed fitting to be sung by a chorus made up from the allied armies in France as our victory song.
 The crowd at the sing was not so large as usual, but larger than on Sun days last summer when the weather conditions were similar to those of yes- terday.
 MT. Lawrence leaves for New York today in response to a telegram from committee in charge of Y. M. c. A. ca1np music. An important conference will be held ehere Wednesday. MT. Lawrence expects to return to Birmingham on Saturday.

STORIES TOLD OF N RECENT SINKING
 OF THREE U-BOATS
British Aircraft Are Prov ing of Great Value in
 Ferreting Them Out

London, June s.-Accounts of the de- struction of three enemy submarines by British aircraft were published yester- day. It is explained that the longer hours of daylight enable seaplanes, air ships and kite balloons to assist ma terially in hunting down T-boats Sum mer conditions favor the submarine hunters whose incessant searching of the seas forces German craft to seek deeper waters.
 An observer in a British towing balloon sighted certain things which, to his trained eye, indicated the presence of a U-boat at great depth. Depth charges were dropped and the submarine was obliged to shift it's position. The bal loon continued on watch and an hour later submarine was observed to emerge a long distance away on the horizon and start shelling a sailing vessel The bal loon was lowed rapidly to the spot and in the meantime the U-boat was forced to submerge by shots from the towing vessel Under the direction of the bal loon observer the towing vessel got over the track of the U-boat and dropped nine depth charges. A large quantity of oil came to the surface, spreading gradually . until it covered an area of a sorare mile.
 British dirigible sighted U-boat at tackinc q merchantmen. The dirigible reached the spot just after the U-boat submerged and dropped bomb three feet t.stern. quantity of oil came to the surface. The dirigible dropped a sec ond bomb, scoring direct hit and lift ing the submarine to the surface mo- mentarily, after which it disappeared in a pool of oil.
 seaplane sighted a U-boat submerg- inS and dropped a bomb, which brought a quantity of air bubbles to the surface The seaplane dropped a second bomb into the center of the churned water and a great quantity of oil came to the sur face. The disturbance continared for so long time it was evident the submarine was mortally wounded.

INHALER HELDUP
 BY SUBMARINE Captain Gets Off by Telling Commander He is a
 Poor Man

New Bedford, Mass, June 9.-Two whalers which arrived here today report ed they had been held up by d Germa n submarine off Cape Hatteras. Capt. J. T. Gonsalves of the schooner A. M. Nichol- son said that on his pleading with the captain of the U-boat tSat he was a poor man and that the loss of his vessel meant ruin, he was allowed to proceed with his ship and s9O,000 cargo of sperm oil unharmed.
 After leaving the Nicholson the subma- rine headed for the schooner Ellen A. Swift, also returning from the whaling grounds, but before reaching her the U boat commander sighted a steamer and went after her, sending her to the bottom.
 The mess boy of the schooner Haup- page sunk by the German raider May 25, arrived at his home here today and said that while he was a prisoner for eight days on the U-boat he was told by the officer that they had sunk one whaler laden with oil. This ship, the name of which was not given, was destroyed pre- vious to May 25, according to the story.

TWO CAPTAINS ARE
 AMONG IGNORED
We're With the Regiments Which Recently Assisted
 Marines in Their Work

With the American Army in France, June 9.-(By the Associated Press.)- In the recent fighting on the Marne, Capt. George r. Wellage of Eagle Pass, Texas. and Capt. James O. Green, Wis consin, distinguished themselves They are attached to regiments which de- serve equal credit with the marines for stopping the German onrush to Paris.
 Captain Wellage smoked out a Ger man machine gun nest and had a duel with a German officer whom he killed with his revolver. He captured an- other German officer after wounding him.
 Captain Greens company was cut off by machine gun fire. He, with two platoons, attacked the machine gun ners and killed all of them. He con- tinued to advance and with his men fought all night. Towards morning they surprised, attacked and killed all the Germans in another machine nest. They then crawled through ditches in order to get back to their own lines.
 This action greatly aided the ma rines in their advance.
 One of the regiments taking part in this battle is known as the raid makers, another has close affiliations with Detroit because many of it's of- ficers had married Detroit girls De- troit is known as "the mother in Jaw" of this regiment
 The transfer of the American troops to the battle front from their quiet training camps is described as a re- markable feat. They were hurriedly loaded into French motor trucks, many of which were driven by Chinese. The trucks proceeded direct to the front line and almost immediately the men got into action. The excitement seemed tonic for them; they forgot lack of sleep and everything else.
