DUNBAR WHIPS
COVINCTON


Dunbar rang up is fifth court
win of the season recently at the
Wolverine gym by downing Gov
ington, Sc to &c. 1t was the sharp
shooting Of Stokes, the fiasny
Wolverine center, who paced his
mates to the triumph.
Firing seven field goals and ad-
ding single free throw to the
total, Stokes took the scoring
honors for the fray. It took q
rally, however, for the Wolver-
ines to take the GENE. The
count was knotted at the half
time at l6-all.
The last game for the Wolver-
ines this season will be played
with Central high at louisville,

Objective Singapore

The target of Japan's present cam
paign in the Southwest Pacific in
cludes the British naval base at
Singapore. Nothing else in that
portion of the world that they might
take would be secure to the Nip
ponese so long as the "Gibraltar of
the East" remained unreduced.
The mighty fortress which has been
raised from the Malay jungle and
swamp since 1923 was intended at
first primarily as a dockyard equal
to the needs of capital ships of mod
ern size. Original plans were ex-
panded as the threat to the chief
sea route to Europe, India and Africa
developed.
A glance at a map will suffice
to show the strategic significance of
the citadel as it exists today. The
Straits of Singapore offer the only
convenient passage between the
Pacific and the Indian Oceans. A
channel only three-quarters of mile
wide separates the Malay peninsula
from the island occupied by the base
Defensive works are not closely
affiliated. Rather, they have been
decentralized deliberately for greater
safety from aerial attack.

THIS AND THAT
BIZ Charles Z. TrdcetDeH.

This Is particularly true when the bird
has reason to feel that supply will be
forthcoming if it asks for 1t.
Concepts of asking and getting are
scarcely in the birds mind, it must be
admitted, but still it has some way of
understanding that the house has some
thing to do with its desire to eat
Fishes in the home aquarium similarly
understand the relation of the hand to
their own hunger.
1t does not take fish long to find out
that when the hand appears over the
surface Of the water, 1t is there TO help
it, not harm it.
In nature, any shadow over the water
is sign for fish to 60 down. This
first of the submarines understands per-
fectly that it may be kingfisher or some
other flyer seeking it as prey.
Nature has made most species of fishes
dark on the back and light on the stom-
ach, so that they will blend with the wa
ter and the sky, according to the direc-
ton in which the enemy looks. II bird
looks down, the fish is dark, even as the
water is dark. II larger fish looks up,
the small fish is lighter underneath, and
so blends with the light from the sky. In
each case, the possible prey is more or
less invisible
The blue jay is one of the few birds
which seems to have a sense of humor.
Whether this helps a bird, as it does
q human being, is a question.
A sense of humor, among men, often
carries one through dark hours.
Just what help 1t gives q bird. we do
not know, but 1t is certainly true that q
Jay seems to have it.
He is always twisting around, poking
out his head, looking this way and that.
for all the world as if he were trying to
attract attention.
In attracting it, however, he does not
want sheer attention so much as he does
sympathy with what he is doing.
Sympathy, after all, is the basic quality
In a sense Of humor. The person with
this sense is very likely to be kind per-
son, without any of the crafty malice
which often masks as wit.
We believe it is much the same with
the jay. and with its four-legged pal,
ths squirrel.
Each Of these understands what Is fun
ny. much as human being does.
Mark Twain's tale about the jay trying
to fill deserted cabin with acorns via
the chimney is classic. The other jays
peered down the chimney, looked into the
window and then screamed with jayish
laughter at the impossible task the lone
bird had set for itself
The point Is not that this story may or
may not be true. but that the author
realized the potentialities of the blue Jay
as q humorist.
He sensed, what all OF US can know who
watch the. birds. that Americas blue jay
will do some of the confoundest things
at times, and do them with q fair which
sets him apart from any other bird.

been encouraged, and little there
fore is known concerning the details
of the facilities available in the
neighborhood. Some idea of the
strength of Singapore, however, may
be obtained from its cost. In 1886
the sum of SIS, 100000 was mentioned
as the total investment contemplated.
Since that date more undoubtedly
has been spent. Equipment is known
to include the largest drydock ever
built anywhere and the largest float
ing drydock ever constructed. The
largest batteries of 18-inch guns are
supposed to be among the instru-
ments of protection ready for action
against any foe
In 1910 Major George Fielding Eliot
anticipated IAN assault on Singapore
by the army under protection Of the
fleet" Formosa, be wrote, would
be the assembly point. 1t is 1900
miles from Formosa to Singapore,
or matter of a weeks steaming
for a fleet Of transports at ten or
twelve knots. This fleet would have
to pass between Hong Kong and
Manila, only $40 miles apart and
both containing submarines and
long-range naval flying boats. Ap-
preaching Singapore, it would come
within the radius of action of air
craft based there while still two and
one-half to three days Steaming time
away BY this time it would be under
heavy attack from Dutch and Aus
tralian aircraft and Dutch sub
marines operating from Borneo. In
order to avoid concerted attack by
British, American and Dutch cruisers
and destroyers, it would have to be
escorted by armored ships, meaning
that Japan would have to risk the
whole of her armored feet in
the South China Sea, 1900 miles
from the nearest Japanese defended
harbor and 2400 miles from the
nearest japanese drydock which can
take a capital ship" This picture,
certainly, has changed in the past
few days but up to the beginning
of hostilities 1t still was reasonably
accurate.
Presumably it was to avoid the
peril sketched by Major Eliot that
the Nipponese war lords decided to
move upon Singapore through French
Indo-China and Thailand. The sue
cess of their maneuver has not yet
been demonstrated. and there is
reason to hope that it will be pre-
vented by operations on the. part Of
Britain and her allies long since
prepared for such an emergency.

were 1877 feet by 102 feet, and she
carried six fifteen-inch guns with
range only limited by maximum
visibility" Refitted with stouter
sheeting, she was younger and in
every way more competent than her
average contemporary.
Both ships were sacrificed to the
protection of Malaga, the Neither
lands East Indies and Australia. But
it likewise must be mentioned that
they constitute an earnest of the
British Empires support of the
United States in the conflict with
Japan. AS to exactly how they were
destroyed and what personnel has
died in them, nothing final or defini-
tive can be said at this time. What
is plain and clear is the necessity
for the speedy replacement of all
such vessels as may be lost.

Ships Lost

Perhaps nothing else in human
experience is more tragic to witness
than the death of ship. No man
who ever has watched a fine, brave
vessel disappear beneath the waves
Is likely to forget the spectacle. Even
to read of such a disaster stirs pro-
found emotions in the average hu-
man breast. The news of the latest
casualties of the British fleet, fol-
lowing Immediately upon advance
reports of the bombing of an undis-
closed number of units of the Amer
ican Navy at Pearl Harbor on Sun
day, has saddened multitudes of
people.
Laid down on New Year Day, 1887,
the Prince of Wales was one of five
battleships of the King George V
class, representing the most modern
conception of what floating fortress
should be. Her. displacement was
$4,000 tons; she was 739 feet in
length, with beam of 103 feet, and
mounted ten new-model fourteen
inch guns. In reference to her plan
ming, it was officially declared that
her design would embrace enhanced
defense against air attack, including
an improved distribution of deck and
side armor, more elaborate subdivi-
sion and an improved system OF un-
derwater protection.
Older but still remarkably good
battle cruiser was the Repulse, the
second ship OF the Renown class,
dated 1916. Bearing full load, she
weighed $500 tons. Her dimensions

appeared in The Sunday Star for De-
cember on Bible Week?
The events that followed few hours
after your editorial appeared made it
all the more timely. Our association
observed Bible Week with great meet
ing on December that filled a rather
large auditorium to more than capacity.
Day by day it is necessary that our
spiritual defense keep step with our
military preparedness"
May I again thank you on behalf Of
our association for the weekly column on

"BERWYN, Md.

Dear Sir:
THE other morning, one Of those cold
ones, I was busy in the dining room,
when my attention was attracted to the
living room window by the loud screeches
of a bird apparently in great distress.
Thinking some cat probably had caught
a bird, rushed to the window and looked
through the thin glass curtains. There
on the rim of the birds bath a large.
beautiful jay was trying to get drink
by pecking at the solid mass of frozen
ice After each peck, he would twist his
body around in a position facing the
window at which I was standing Il am
SIRE he couldn't see me) and screech his
loudest. The thought occurred to me
that probably he was asking for drink.
So took water out to the bird bath. OF
course, he flew away as soon as opened
the door. Then went back to the win
dow to see If that jay would return. Be-
fore finished counting 20 he few down
and drank his MI, he then twisted his
body around, faced the window behind
whose curtains I was watching, and few
away without making sound.
would you call this an unusual in
cident? I was so surprised, it really
looked as If the bird was asking for water
Il like your column and read it a lot.
Sincerely, H. w. McN."
There can be little doubt that the jay
asked for water.
Most species of birds send committees
to the house to ask for more seed when
the supply has run out.
English sparrows, which are lazy birds.
in sense. specialize in doing this.
If the householder is in the front yard,
a half dozen sparrows will fly to the
front.
There, perched on some shrubs, they
will chirp away with unusual violence,
until the worker goes to the back yard
to Ill up the bird-feeding station.
These sparrows are lazy only In the
sense they prefer to get their food with
out too much endeavor. q failing in which
humanity may sympathize.
The cardinals refuse to be lured by the
full dinner pail. (Who remembers when
that was a political slosan?)
Redbirds hunt for their food in fall
and winter, as we'll as summer. While
they patronize well-stocked feeding sta
tons, they do so only at times, especially
during the last hour of daylight
Most Of the time, the cardinals are
finding natural foods, such as seeds and
berries.
The English spsrrows. on the other
wing. much prefer to keep close to a sup
ply Of cracked grains put out by some
person who enjoys feeding them. They
are lazy, in a sense, but only in q sense
Otherwise, they are as active and as full
Of pep as most birds

Mocking birds often come to q window
and indicate as plainly as they can that
they would like something to eat.
