 Tackling what barracks officials believe is the most ambitious grid program among the nations army pests is a squad of self-appointed Air Corps messiahs with moleskln pasts ranging from high school to tine Big Ten.
 And since you can't frighten an enemy--on the battlefield or the gridiron with press clippings, members of this rough, tough eleven must produce.
 Bob Cone, former University Of Wisconsin riple-threater, did just that as the blue raiders opened the season with a 32-6 win over Northeastern Junior College of Miami, Okla. He hula -hipped his way 95 yards for a marker with the first kickoff and contributed three other touchdoWns. T h e Raiders lost their second game to Maryville, Mo, Teachers, f3 to 0, and their third game to St. Mary's of San Antonio, 6 to O.
 Then there are Larry Owens of Iowa State College, Jack McKin- non of the University of Iowa and big Abe Palmer of Vanderbilt and Southwestern University of Mem phis.
 Up forward are such huskies as Bob Mover of the University Of Minnesota, 200-pound tackle; Don aid Marlin of Western State, a guard, and Ray Lee, center, once with the University of Arkansas.
 The lads must feel at home, for Coach A. M Klum, formerly as- sistant line coach and Big Six ace guard at the University of Ne- braska, has unfolded the tear towel already.

 More recently, the British sent an eXpeditionary force to occupy Spitzbergen and it's coal mines The Admiralty disclosed German plans to use Spitzbergen radio fa- cilities and coal for the Nazi At lantic submarine and raider fleet.
 And now the American Navy captures a weather" ship off Greenland.
 The Germans have been de- prived of their main stations in the polar regions, but the contin- ued presence of Allied patrol ves- sells indicates the British ant American navies still are suspl- cious.
 Greenland is the focus of naval action because it is closest to the main British supply line from the United States, and affords innu- merable hiding places for Ger man raiders, subs, and planes. Greenland's fjords-especially on the west coast-can be penetrated in winter. Caches of food and fuel can be taken away by Nazi naval craft.
 Greenland is the polar area where winter weather for both North America and northern Eu- rope often begins.
 Oddly, the Weggener expedi- tion reported in 1880 that Green land might not be the winter weather factory it had been thought up to that time. But weather observers have been re, ported there, both inland on the

 More important, there is evil dence that the Germans still have secret radio stations in Greenland for relaying orders to their At lantic raiders. And many Green land fjords probably have been charted as hiding places for sub marines and sea raiders-especi- ally on the west coast There the gulf stream sends warming cur rent to keep the ice softened all winter It is fairly easy to pierce everywhere except at Ivigtut.
 But they are not going to be easy to find. Greenland has many, many thousands of miles of coast line Much of it is merely shown on map. Depths of harbors, ice conditions. are not generally known. The United States Coast Guard re- gently sent expeditions up that way. They reported back that win- ter cruising around Greenland was not any more hazardous than any, where else in the North Atlantic, except for the need for constant lookout for icebergs. They said there were many radio stations, and radio was surprisingly well de- veloped, indicating the Germans probably can use bootleg radio stations operated by Greenlanders

impressed many of those were

uncanny amount of common sene
