Mike Drusbacky also hit hard
with three blows in five trips to the
plate. Gretzner got the only home
run OF the game in the fourth inn

Gretzner was relieved after hurl-
ing seven and one-third innings by
-Carakostas. Wesleyan also used
two pitchers, Dale Meyers, who
worked only one-third inning, and
Harry Grub, who finished up.
The seventh inning was the eli
max OF the wild affair. The Hur.
ons scored six runs in their half OF
the frame. but Illinois Wesleyan
topped that figure with nine runs
on five hits.

Fort Monroe to Release
102 Men From Army

One hundred and two men of the
246th Coast Artillery I'd Battal-
ion, including one Washingtonian,
are being discharged at Fort Mon
roe, Va, this week on completion Of
their year of active duty, according
to an announcement by the post to-
day.
The Washington man is Pvt CFirst
Class Leonard w. Snellings, who
enlisted in the Regular Army for one
year just after the National Guard
mobilization last September. Others
to be discharged, all Virginians, en-
listed similarly. One-year regular
enlistments were curtailed when the
selective service program got under
way.
Other one-year men at Fort Mon
roe will be discharged from time to
time, the announcement said, and
replaced by selectees.

for example. Those 75s up on the
road were putsout Of action by that
Red shelling and we didn't have
anything else, except maybe few
mortars out in the woods, which are
not any good at all against tanks.
For infantry, these men are well
equipped. They've all got Garand
rifles and they know how to use
them, but there isn't any rifle that
will pierce 2 inches of armor.
Il hate to think what would hap
pen if this were the real thing
Why, we've already lost 500 men
out of our regiment and our whole
outfit was captured yesterday. OF
course, they let us come back at
midnight, but we wouldn't be here
now if this was a shooting war.
Still" he concluded, with an air
of mixed resignation and disgust,
they keep us up here-infantry
against tanks"
Meanwhile the umpires had ruled
again for the Reds. Not much, at
best a few hundred yards. but it
meant the loss of the creek which,
however small, was tersely described
by one of the men as the best anti
tank weapon We had"
On the whole, however, the outfit
took the reverse in good enough
spirits and soon were stationed along
their new line, rattling away with
mortars, machine guns and rifles,
while a lieutenant colonel, undoubt-
edly with his tongue we'll in his
cheek, exhorted them mot to let
those damn tanks through again."

Public Hearing Slated
On Plea 10 Convert
161 Streetcars
Dute on One-Mun
Operation Issue To Be
Announced Later

A renewed petition by the Capital
Transit Co. for permission to con-
vert 161 of its two-man cars to one
man operation, filed yesterday with
the Public Utilities Commission, will
be debated at public hearing, the
date to be announced later.
Notice Of an engineering investi-
cation to be made of the proposal
and its intention to call a public
hearing was issued yesterday by
Elmo J. Milligan, commission sec
retary.
The new development came after
the transit company had challenged
the power of the commission, in an
earlier case. to reject plans for con-
version of older street cars to one
man operation and had taken the
case to District Court. The suit was
Withdrawn September IL.
About a year and a half ago. the
company sought permission to con-
vert number of cars and the court
action was filed when the commits
sion rejected the plan as unwise at
that time. Last February the COM
pany filed another petition for con-
version of about 161 cars but the
commission refused to consider it
because of the then pending court
test.
In filing the new move yesterday,
and asking that the older one be
withdrawn, the company said it had
dropped the court test of the COM
missions power and declared new
conditions had arisen which should
permit approval of the conversion
plan. Economic conditions and
Washingtons increased population,
due to the national defense effort,
are expected to be cited as argu-
ments of the need.

Air Forces Effective
Aqoinst Armored Units

WITH Sd ARMY, Sept. 18 P,-
The Arnys new air-ground combat
team, put together for the first time
in the current war games, already
has proven that armored divisions
can be forced into vulnerable posi-
tions. an authoritative tactician with
the Sd Army said today.
Even before air combat forces en-
tered the vast training exercises,
Mai. Gen. George S. Patton, jr.,
commander of the I'd Armored Di-
vision, said the emphasis on train
ing of anti-tank organizations had
ended the honeymoon period" Of
mechanical forces.
They would not have had the
field to themselves here as they did
in previous war games in Tennes-
see and elsewhere. With attack
and dive bombers operating in the
current maneuvers the mechanical
divisions are finding tougher going.
THE ground team finally
comes into its own" said the tao
tician who preferred anonymity. He
had been asked to explain why
the two armoured divisions with 1t.
Gen. Ben Lear's I'd Army had
been unable to get away for usual
wide f1anking attacks or surprise
stabs with the great shock power
of 100 tanks, backed up by artillery
and infantry.
The actual effect of the initial
cooperation of airplanes and strong
ground forces has been to empha-
size the natural barriers of terrain"
the high staff officer declared. "Riv-
ers suddenly became impossible OBJ
stacles because bridges can be
bombed as fast as they can be con-
structed.
Before the bombers came the
ermored divisions could come to the
Red and Sabine Rivers, move up
sufficient artillery and infantry to
establish a bridgehead, push over
pontoons and roll across. Now, un-
less definite superiority is on their
side they have to operate between
the Sabine and Red Rivers"
