General Says His Men
Better Than Best Of AEF
BY DAMON RUNYON

ORIG. GEN. CORTLAND
~ PARKER says the 5th Divi-
sion of the United States Army
is better trained than the 1St
Division was at the start of our
participation in the World War.
The 5th, which is commanded by
General Parker. is one of the
new heavily motorized, triangu-
lar divisions that drew praise
from the war department OBJ
servers in the Tennessee ma
neuvers.
General Parker a d q : and
thereby craftily increases his
boost for the 5th-that the 1st
Division was about the finest
division in our army. or for that
matter In any army, from which
we Judge he was originally a lst
Division man. We will not dis
pute his statement but we know
of hundreds of CRAVING gents in
various sections of the country
who will take pleasure in debat-
ing the matter with him.
They will agree that the 1st
was a nice division. all right, but
as for il being the finest in our
army-no. no, no. The grazing
gents will insist that the distinc-
tion belonged TO the 2nd, 3rd,
And, Goth. 32nd. 9th. 36th,
nth. or whatever division they
served with. Here is one point
on which you can always start
an argument among Pershings
veterans.
II was some times good for a
knock -down-drag-out during the
war and Immediately after
wards. when blood was younger
and hotter. We used to hear
presumably unbiased officers at
tempt to rate the divisions in
the A. f.. F. in the order of their
efficiency. but they sc d o m
agreed on the listing. They gen.
orally started off with the lst,
2nd and Bird. then a tangle inn
mediately developed as 10 which
was No !.
WHEN the armistice was de-
w clared, Pershing had quite
a number of divisions, including
the three named. that probably
outclassed any troops the world
has ever seen. not barring Ma
polecn's Old Guard or the best
of Hitler'S blitzerS II was only
the stay in hostilities that pre-
vented the complete humiliation
of the kaiser's forces in the path
of the Americans. Pershing
would have gone right on 10

If the fifth division is as good

New steps to weld American land,
sea and air forces into a closely
co-ordinated fighting team were dis
closed today by Gen. George C..
Marshall, Army Chief of Staff.
Lifting partially the secrecy sur
rounding some important defense
preparations, he reported that Navy
dive bombers would be teamed with
ground troops for the first time IN
late summer maneuvers.
The arrangement for use of Navy
dive bomberS was made with Ad-
miral Harold r. Stark, Chief of
Naval Operations. War games en-
ploying more than 350,000 men are
to be held in Louisiana in August
and the Army's field training is
to be topped off in November with
other maneuvers in the Carolinas.
Terming the use of the Navy
bombers logical" Gen. Marshall
said that in the event of war con-
ceivably carrier-based planes would
have to be used with troops"
Defense Secrets Disclosed.
Gen. Marshall also gave the fol-
lowing information on some hither-
to secret defense subjects:
l. A Marine Corps officer has
been given command of an Army
Marine task force" now being
trained for landing operations in
the event it should be needed for
Western Hemisphere defense. The
officers name was not given.
2. Brig. Gen. Henry w. Harms,
veteran Army flyer, has been placed
in command of the air defense bases
in Newfoundland, northernmost of
the string of island outposts &C
quired from Great Britain.
3. Command of the new bases in
Alaska may pass from ground
officer to an air officer as soon as
construction work is completed.
4. The Army-Navy Joint Board,
which formerly held sessions only
at intervals of weeks, now functions
almost continuously. It's members
include Maj. Gen. Henry H. Arnold,
deputy chief of staff and command

er of the newly reorganized Army

Navy officials.
Purposes Explained.
Gen. Marshall detailed some Of
the steps to knit defense forces
more closely in explaining at a
press conference some of the pur-
poses behind the Air Corps reor-
ganization. This was reported to
Congress last week by Secretary Of
War Stimson as the Armys answer
to proposals for a completely inde-
pendent air force, which Mr.. Slim
son contended would be mistake"
at this time.
In creating special task forces"
from all arms for possible wartime
operations, Gen. Marshall indicated
the United States was following
Germany's course. The Joint Board,

The Sauk Centre herald., 1941-12-04

by decision to Grey Eagle. There
was no knockout but Sauk Centre
was staggering groggily in that
first frame, and fandom settled
back to what promised to be an
interesting little tussle-if not act
ually gripping for Grey Eagle look
ed not bad. Lead by their Parker,
a big, rowing center, and Erlich-
man, guard, Grey Eagle easily
controlled the play in the first.
And that particular stanza wound
up with Sauk Centre leading 3
to 1. Rosedahl drew the first bit
of scoring when he dropped free
throw about midway in the quarter.
Erlichman tied it with one Of his
own.
Midway in the quarter Rasmus-
sen pulled his starting five Cotton,
Nugent, Little, Hansmann, left
Rosedahl in with new corners Kel-
dahl, Rowland, Proell and Mooney.
While the first boys were recover
ing from a severe tenseness that
crippled their efforts, Mooney drop
ped the first bucket Of the game
on a rebound from Proell's try.
That not only started the stu
dent body bowling for more but
in measure was an ice breaker.
And the lads were on their way.
Sauk Centres crew was definite
ly over-anxious. They knew they
were expected to beat Grey Eagle,
and they over-played every shot,
every defensive and offensive move.
Result: they lost the ball frequent
ly. Only two things saved them
from losing the first quarter en-
tirely. One their own pretty able
defensive; and two the fact Grey
Eagle simply couldn't shoot.
Sauk Centres offensive was sound
but they were blowing higher than
a steam whistle. The whole quar-
ter had the color of WCTU rally.
It took some more free throws to
open the scoring vein in the Sec
ond and then the stream gurgled
to the surface and wound up in
roar in the last half, that all but
swept Grey Eagle Of the court.
