emily was not only to oppose the
German invaders, but also to con-
vince Wavering neutrals of British
French offensive power
A War Office Admiralty statement
yesterday that British forces had
''landed at several points in Nor
way was amplifled by unofficial re-
ports and indications that the fol-
low-up forces include both British
and French soldiers, with large
stores of food and ammunition, and
such equipment as trucks, armored
cars and tanks.
1t appears that the expeditionary
force represents all or part of the
100000 men the allies offered to
Finland before her peace with
Soviet Russia, or other troops facii-
tated by the arrangements for trans
port and supply that were completed
at that time.
Diplomatic quarters underlined
the Importance of the allied counter
offensive in Scandinavia and ex-
pressed belief that successes thus
far had thwarted any Nazi attempt
to stampede neutral nations into
climbing on the German bandwagon.
Italy especially, diplomatic OBJ
servers said, would be impressed by
the allied display of sea power max
ing the. expedition possible, and
think twice before switching from
non-belligerency to active belliger-
ency.
In the week that has followed the
Nazi occupation of Denmark and
the first German landings on Nor
wegian shores allied naval forces
almost entirely British-have
cleared the seaways sufficiently to
permit a large-scale movement of
manpower, with a warship convoy.
The Scandinavian often
sive has been getting a bad press in
Italy.
The statement of the Admiralty
and War Office that troops had
been landed did not identify the
several points of debarkation but
Scandinavian sources already had
pictured Narvik, far northern Nor
way, now reported wrested from
German hands, as the most likely
landing point
Neutral quarters in London
quickly added their opinion that
troops also had been landed at
Namsos and Andalsnes, about 100
miles respectively north and south
of Trondheim on the middleWestern
coast.
The Narvik sector was regarded
as isolated, being the extreme north
ern point of German occupation, and
far removed from other points origi-
nally seized by the Nazis Landings
at Namsos and Andalsnes would
offer the possibility of vast pincer
movement on German-held Trond-
helm, while British naval forces
blockaded Trondheim Fjord.
Not long after the War Office
Admiralty statement, the Norwegian
Minister to London, Erik Andreas
Colban, broadcast to his countrymen
that allied help lis assuming great
proportions.
French Troops Included.
Colban indicated that both French
and British troops were going into
action on the Scandinavian front
when he asked Norwegians to accept
British and French money in pay
ment for goods and services, "as the
allied troops have not had time to
obtain sufficient Norwegian money"
An official exchange arrangement
will be announced after an agree
ment between the Norwegian State
Bank and the Bank of England, it
was said.

"You could do it again. If it meant we could see each other. Talk together. Give me a chance to tell you what's in my heart"
 "But here" she repeated Why here?"
 Because we could be alone, and that what I want, darling. Alone with you for just a little while.
 You could pretend you had some work left over from last night. You could be here for just little while" he repeated. And I could take you home. Say 10 o'clock, Sue Mary. We could meet here, and then in an hour-less If you wanted we could leave.
 Promise me, darling. There's so much I want to tell you. So much" He leaned toward her, kissed her lips and abruptly van ished into the crowd on the street.
 The food before her on the drug store counter was tasteless. She ate her sandwich and drank her milk, but she wasn't conscious of the taste of either.
 If Nick meant to carry through his plan with Vera, why did he want her present? And surely, after the careful groundwork laid by Vera, he wouldn't toss the whole thing aside even if - as he 50 ardently insisted he was in love and did want to see her.
 But that was ridiculous, she told herself. She knew real love with Joe, and she knew Nick wasn't in love, not really. This was move in his game, but she still couldn't see how she would fit in. Unless he meant to involve her so deep ly that she couldn't disclose what was going on.
 Her hands grew cold and she could feel the breeze from the drug store fan dry the perspira- ton that broke out on her brow. What If Vera knew she had been in the office last night in time to WlIIlcSS IlCL SCCLlC WAb1A yOuAl5 Ross Clark?
 What if they were both afraid of how much she knew? Perhaps they planned to make her serve as an accomplice tonight and thereby keep her from disclosing their plans?
 She had feeling that they didn't trust her. She knew they didn't respect nor fear her intelli- gence. To them she was still the naive, lonely little girl who, strange and bewildered, with nothing to do and nowhere to go, had fallen into their group. She had swallowed their philosophy, followed their course, allowed her. self to be used to their advantage.
 If she could only think. If she could only see what to do.
 She knew she couldn't stand idly by and permit them to carry out their plan. Every instinct of decency, every instinct of Amer icanism within her rebelled. They didn't know the meaning of pa- triotism. She smiled a little, I'm thinking like a Girl Scout, she said to herself.

MEET ME HERE-ToN1GHT"
CHAPTER XXIII

Lunchtime came and Sue Mary put on the wide-brimmed straw hat that made her look like little girl, deepened the golden glints in her brown eyes. Her tan linen dress fiared from the hips in the same way it had delighted her, when she had worn it for the first time weeks ago. The bangles on her wrist still jingled merrily, but she was too absorbed in her distraught thoughts to feel the confidence a well-groomed girl usually pos SeSSeS.
 She was so absorbed that she literally ran into Nick before she saw him in the lobby of the office building.
 80 blind you can't see me?" he demanded, taking her by the elbows and showing her back away from the crowd coming from the elevators. I'm not sure that pleases me"
 She drew a frightened. breath, but managed to hide her fears and smile. After all, one doesn't ex- pect to see you here"
 "But here I am, and guess why?" His dark face was close to hers and his eyes looked deep into her startled brown ones.
 "To see you, my dear. When a mans in love he wants to see his girl. And there seems to be less and less chances these days. Sue Mary, you know that. At the hall there are always people; people wanting me to do this and that; asking question, wanting to talk. And at the apartment" He shrugged his shoulders. well, theirs either Vera or Natalie -"
 But Nick" She didn't know what was coming, but she in- stinctively prepared herself. What elSe-?"
 "I have to talk to you, darling. must. I - I thought, perhaps, tonight"
 She felt her mind whirling. To- night-but tonight Nick and Vera meant to come to the office for those papers. Tonight" she re- peated stupidly.
 "Yes, dear. Natalie said you had to work late last night. thought maybe we could talk here. I could meet you and take you home"
 But Nick" she groped for words trying to understand how this new move fitted the picture. aBut - I - don't work every night. Last night was an excep- tion."

 She closed her eyes and pie tured him in the hospital; quiet, motionless on the white bed, his blond head swathed in bandages, doctors and nurses moving about him consultations, X-rays, diag- noses, operations.

 There was a note on her desk. Call Mercy hospital. She had left her number and begged she be notified of any change. Now something had happened.
 She tried to dial the number, but her fingers shook so that the numbers slipped by aimlessly. Tears dimmed her eyes so that she could barely see

as long as the Allied fleets still ride the waves.
Hundreds of Norwegian and Danish freighters must
have been in neutral ports when the hit Scan
dinava; many of the Danish vessels, at least prob
ably will be interned for the duration of the war
But Norway is now of the Allies and in Allied
ports there must be vast fleet of Norwegian ships
which cannot return home and will be taken over
by the Allies
1t is true that many of the Scandinavian ships
have been doing the Allies work already, especially
on Latin American routes, in bringing supplies to
Great Britain and France. But the net gain to
Allied shipping resources will be enormous all the
same The Norwegian ships that formerly supplied
the homeland will be used for bringing food and
war materials to Norway's allies. Britans lost
sources of food supply in Denmark may be offset
by the greater imports which can be brought
from overseas in Norwegian and Danish bottoms
After ALL the Allies total losses at amount to
only 100000 TONS little three percent of their
total maritime Their acquisitions in ship
ping as result of the Scandinavian war may run
into millions of tons 1t will be difficult than
ever for Germany to starve the British by her sea
warfare or to prevent the Allies from building up
crushing preponderance in materials.

Have Hurled
Better Ball
Many Record Breakers
Have Own Opinion
About Other Games
By DILLON GIBBON

NEW YORK, April 30.-Many no.
hit game pitchers believe they have
pitched better games even in defeat.
None of the perfect game" hurl-
ers I've talked to thought they were
in great form that particular after
noon. Good surely, but not unhit-
table.
Bob Teller rather supported this
idea when he commented on his
no-hitter against Chicago on open
ing day.
Il couldn't seem to throw curve
very WE'LL" he explained. The ball
seemed slippery and the wind kept
it from doing its stuff. I think I've
been lot faster, too
Skipper Jimmy Dykes of the White
Sox agreed: I've seen him better"
Bob's remarks reminded me of the
time when 1 caught four no-hit
game pitchers together in Washing
ton-Vernon Kennedy, Bill Dietrich
and Ted Lyons o the White Sox and
Yves Terrell the Senators. Ken
nedy is now with the Browns and
Ferrel with the Dodgers.
Not Their Best
They all agreed that they had
had more stuff and pitched better
games than on the days when they
threw themselves into the Hall of
Fame
Kennedy, Dietrich and Terrell
thought almost to the end that an
early inning scratch hit had spoiled
things. Lyons knew what was hap
pening though. nervousness gets
you in the late innings and you be-
gin to give more thought to every
pitch. Your heart jumps into. your
mouth every time ball is HIT, he
said.
The last Boston batter against
Lyons in that 1926 game banged one
far off first base but Earl Shelley
made brilliant backhanded catch.
Luck and fine fielding count the
most" observed Dietrich "Batters
can hit the ball hard and yet drive
it right into a fieldei''s hands"
when I heard the crowd yelling
I knew 1 was near a perfect game, .
said Kennedy. A running catch by
Al Simmons saved Kennedy while
Hank Bonura made couple of nice
stops for Dietrich.
Feller Unruffled
While these hurlers told me that
the late inning pressure was almost
unbearable, Feller intimated it did
not bother him.
