BRITAIN TO HAVE
 OWN BLITzKRIEG
Already in Making, When British Start on Their
 Offensive Drive

London, Nov. l8.-(UPl--A Brit ish brand of blitzlSrieg is in the making for "the time when Britain takes the offensive" 1t was revealed today by a shakeup in the Royal Air Force command and revolu- tionary change in military tactics
 Air Marshal Sir Arthur Sheridan Barratt heads Q new army cooper ation command designed to link the land forces with its air might. He assumes the new command on Weds nesday.
 The airministry also announced that Vice Marshal w. s. Douglas would take command of the fighter force, replacing Chief Marshal Sir Hugh Dowding.
 Barratt and Douglas will have revised staffs of officers, all young men with only one of them more than 50 years old.
 Dowding was shifted to the 1nir1- istry of aircraft production foi special duty in the United States Leaving record of having success fully combatted the German Luft- waffe in the battle of Britain.
 In America, he will be chief tech- nical adviser of the British air commission to speed production and improve designs of ships being ptlr- chased there.
 Closer Cooperation
 Adoption of the blitzkrieg tactics followed agitation in the House ot Commons and by the press for clos CT cooperation of the air and land forces. British strategists have talk en lesson from the German "war of movement" and speeded the mo- torization of the infantry.
 The RAF will maintain its sep- arate identity but under the new unified system, air force officials in the field will work as one command with land forces.
 It was not announced when Dowding would leave for the Unit ed States. His assignment overseas was regarded here as meaning that the war cabinet considers the aerial defenses as satisfactory. Max imum American production was be- lieved now to be a more important problem.
 Problems confronting Dowding irl America will be standardization oi design for maximum output and improvement of armor and defen- sive armaments. British experts have pronounced the American planes excellent in material, work manship and performance. but be- hind those of British manufacture in armor and armament.

Atlantic City for fourth. Only last

SIS tie here.
Early-Season door mat for the
entire league, the Skeeters recently
have staged complete reversal of
form. Their most illustrious feat
was in halting the winning streak
of the league leading Orioles who
had won 13 straight matches before
the River Vale team nipped them
81. Their improvement has been
due largely to the brilliance OF
Hughie Bell and Squee Allen, wing
men, and the addition of Norm
Burns, timely scorer, from Atlantic
City.
