but never let 1t be said that Nc
Lemore is big enough rat to leave a
sinking ship-even Pirate ship.
I am going to Pittsburgh for the
world series even though 1t is played
in Chicago between the Yankees
and the Cubs. Let my comrades de-
sert the sinking Pirate ship If they
want to, but Wednesday afternoon
will find me In the Forbes field
press box, pencil poised, ears cooked,
and ready for the first game.
My Pittsburgh plans are all made.
Take my hotel reservations, for ex-
ample. I pestered the Schenley
manager for weeks to get me an
outside room with northern expo
sure and three-way ventilation. He
finally wangled me such an accom-
mediation, and wouldn't be a fine
one to desert him Just because a
ball team on which he doesn't even
play fails to come through.

There are the Pittsburgh officials
to consider, too. To make me and
the rest of the press more comfort
able they went to much trouble and
expense to build new press box.
They put in soft seats, drinking
water, and arranged to serve us
sandwiches between innings. I in
tend to sit in the Pittsburgh press
box and get my sandwiches between
innings, even If have to listen to
radio to learn when the world
series innings end.
Furthermore, I have many social
engagements In Pittsburgh, which
I have been arranging with great
care since the middle of July. !

Naugatuck, Sept. 30-The Naug-

game which has been scheduled for
Sunday afternoon at Recreation

in the past for strong defense ano

The New London club has o

Thompson can lug the old pigskin

then the Gems will have to sit back

scrimmages and he should be a
pleasant surprise to Naugatuck fans
The Electric Boat squad is COM
posed mainly of graduates of the
Coast Guard Academy teams and
anyone who has witnessed the
Guards in action, knows how tough
they are. These former Coast stars
now with the New London outfit
have not lost any of their rugged
ness and they always can be de-
pended upon to furnish lively and
tough opposition.

JAP AIR RAIDS
FATAL FOR TOO
AT Least Twice That Num-
Der of Chinese Are
Reported Injured

HANKOW, July 20.-(uP)-
japanese bombing planes roarcd
over the Wuhan area yesterday,
carrying the war into the heart of
Chinese military ana civil head
quarters as they poured tons Of
explosives on government build
ings. homes and schools, leaving
at least LOO dead and twice that
many wounded.
The fUreign-controllcd Wuhan
university was badly damaged and
students at the American Catholic
school for girls in Hankow mar
rowly escaped death or injury as
bombs dropped all around the
area.
Gen. Fcng Iu-hsiang, so-callcd
Chinese "Christian General" vice
commander Of the Chinese armies
under Generalissimo Chang Kai-
shek, was nearly hit by bomb as
he sprinted for shelter along a
street.
Chinese said the raid was in re-
taliation for Chinese bombing at
tackS which have halted Japanese
land and naval advances near klu-
kiang, 1875 miles down the 4angtse
river from here.
1t was the most destructive raid
yet carried out in the Wuhan area
the "three cities" at the conflu-
cnce of the Han and Yangtse riv-
ers, comprising Hankcw, the pro-
viSional capital; Wuchang, where
Chiang's military headquarters is
located, and I1anyang, on the
south bank of the Han.
Chinese officials estimated that
more than $50 bombs were drop
ped. chiefly on Hankow and WI
chang. There were 500 persons
dead in Hankow alone, according
to the official estimate.
Many inhabitants Of Wuchang
were able to take refuge in dug
outs, as the bomberS swept over
the city pouring explosives into
the thickly packed residential
areas.
One bomb dropped in front of
the Hupch provincial library, de-
stroying workmen'S mat sheds,
and another hit the Chinese Chris
tan Science church readers quar-
tiers, demolishing the building. 1t
was not learned whether anyone
was killed.
