Gigantic Air Raid
Feared in Unison
With Invasion
BY JAMES r. BROWN
Int1 News Service star Correspondent

LONDON. Feb. l. German
bombers probably will intensity
their renewed daylight assaults on
Britain until the Nazi high COM
mand considers the moment ripe
for a gigantic mass air attack and
a simultaneous invasion attempt,
British military experts predicted
today.
This expert expression of opin-
ion followed yesterdays wide
spread daylight lone wolf raids
which caused considerable casual
ties and damage and proved the
heaviest daylight pounding Britain
has taken in months.

NEW TACTICS

The new German tactics, which
the British described as armed
reconnaissance, are definitely re-
garded as a prelude 10 an about
194l air offensive by the Nazi luft-
waite.
Qualified British sources said the
new German campaign is picking
UP where the luftwaffe left off last
October after protracted period
of daylight assaults. During that
period. according to British claims,
the number of German planes shot
down by British fighters reached
heavy proportions.
These quarters also expressed
belief that the present attacks
now will continue until the long,
heralded Nazi invasion attempt is
launched.
"After the terrific defeat OF
massed German fighters and
bombers last September, the
luftwaffe chiefs changed their
tactics" one British expert said.
Ffghter-bombers and fighters,
loaded with one or two bombs,
Paided Britain In . steady
stream, flying high and fast.
They were difficult to intercept.
SHIPPING TARGETS
Better armored medium and
heavy bombers, operating singIy,
concentrated on shipping targets.
THE recent offensives Indicate
this will now be continued until
Hitler names der tag"
Speculation over the strength OF
the German air force now avail
able along the continental coastal
areas opposite Britain arose anew
today after the London Daily
Express claimed Field Marshal
Goering has sent about one-fifth
of the luftwaffe to southern Italy
to hold the air sector south OF the
line between Naples and Bari
The Express also stated that one
Of Germany's five air corps has
been sent to Italy.

The Yanks haven't clinched the

Do you blame him with a l7l2
game lead and only "a games left
on the schedule? Nevertheless, some
of baseballs conservative oldtimers
shook their hands and muttered,
Il don't like it, this counting your
chickens before they hatch. Maybe
it won't hurt the Yanks in the
pennant race but it might put the
whammy on them in the world
series. It's not the thing to do"
But the actual clinching of the
flag can't be far off. The Yanks
picked up another half game yes

did it for them by knocking off

The semifinals were played in a

day was fair, however, and $500
fans, trotting around Field clubs
6745 yards, watched Abbott make
the greatest shot of the week on
the 2lst hole, par five, 467 yarder
into a blind green.
He was one up when he lashed
his drive into the rough. The lie
was bad and his second kicked along
in the rough so or 10 yards, leav-
ing him another bad lie and still
220 yards from the pin. But the
next Shot with a No. 4 wood, cut
that distance TO four feet. for Alb
bot laced the ball straight TO the
pin and got the putt for a winning
birdie four.
He will need shots of this sort
today, too, for Ward has played

used to cut down Robert Riegel of
Houston, Tex, and 8, in the semi

Music is for enjoyment. Not
only for the listener, but for those
who are playing the music as
well. 1t is one profession where
if the participants are not really
in their work for the love of it,
they are not in it long.
. At the musicians dance the
other night, there was music.
Faurot's Hall vibrated with sounds
loud and low, lingering and STAG
cotto. And to insure the COM
pleteness of the vibrations, one
man kept tapping an electrically
lighted drum with stick. Anoth-
er converted wind into sound
through a loop-like instrument
with a bell-like opening. on the
end. He held the instrument at an
angle of about 25 degrees from the
floor.
1t was quite dance, not only
for the patrons (the admission
was free) but for the musicians
themselves. They should have
their convention here more often.
