CHAPTER XVI

General Hague nervously paced
the floor of his office despite the
long days of driving toll and anxi-
ETY. that had drained his energies to
the point Of exhaustion. The last
troop trains had moved south with
the force of fifty thousand men that
was to stop Van Hassek on the Fort
Worth-Dallas line. But reports from
the south shook him with new mis-
givings and he had sent for Colonel
Flagwill.
Young Benning got away this
morning for Mexico City, didn't hep"
Flagwills face dropped. Sorry,
General. Benning has vanished in
thin air. Not word from him all

"Benning missing?" General
Hague scowled incredulity. THAT
doesn't sound like Benning."
Il authorized him to follow
Van Hassek agent aboard a Norwe-
gian tramp freighter, thinking we'd
get a haul of spies. A destroyer
overhauled the boat last night after

not aboard as planned. The ships

FlagWill drove at once to Boiling

as the plane approached Dallas, a
radio warning told the pilot to avoid
the Dallas airport and put down at
an emergency landing-feld south
Of the city.
The savage winks of defamation
bombs caught Flagwill's eye as his
plane drove past the city. No soon
er had his plane roared to a stop in
the emergency field than his ears
rang with the bedlam of air bonn
bardment over Dallas. A staff off,
Ger from Army headquarters was
waiting for him.

he concluded as the room cleared Of

to run up here with his motorized

NEW YORK. May 1.-THE
victory streaks that carried the
Cleveland Indians and st. Louis

spective major league were
snapped yesterday.
In the American circuit, the
Tribe experienced its first set
back in IL starts. Outhitting the
Washington Senators, the In
dams were unable to do much
with the knuckleball offerings of
Dutch Leonard, succumbing to
the Mats, So, despite collecting
10 safe hits. Three runs produc-
ed by a homer and single off the
bat of Vernon and Keltner's
two-run error proved the down
fall of the fast-stepping Cleve-
land nine.
Over in the National league,
ST. Louis Redbirds took it on
the chin for the first time in IL
games. 1t was a close decision
that halted the Gashouse Gang
at 10 straight triumphs, a ga
verdict gained bv the Boston

Longing for
Jerusalem
BY Yehudah Halevi (1OS6-1141)

By Yehudah Halevi (1O86-1141)
o City of the World,
With sacred splendor blest,
My spirit yearns for thee
From out the far-off West.
A stream of love wells forth
When I recall thy day.
Now is thy temple waste,
Thy glory passed away.
Had I an eagles wings
Straight could I fly to thee
Moisten thy holy dust
With wet cheeks streaming free.
Oh, how I long for thee
Although thy King has gone,
Although where balm once flowed
The serpent dwells alone.
Could I but kiss thy dust,
So would I fain expire,
AS sweet as honey then
My longing, my desire.
