DISPLAYS COURAGE

Mikiel took over the driving
reigns under physical conditions
which ~eald have made any one
less courageous not even attempt
TO bowl. He had two teeth eX-
tracted yesterday afternoon. From
the time he stepped on the drives
until the time he came off he
bled profusely.
He couldn't even open his mouth
for when he did blood spouted
forth. He was forced 10 stop
numerous times during his last
two games. after every frame. TO
catch a drink of water. He gave
his best display Of courage in his
last game.
Knowing he needed 272 to take
over, Mikiel came through with a
sparkling 27S. stringing nine
strikes in a row. He opened with
213 and followed with 19l-2f7-235-
206-21S-201 before putting on the
final big blast Many believe his
score may stand TO cop the $500,
besides the S5e he already has re-
ceived for leading his squad.

Service Period Indefinite

Theoretically, National Guardsmen called into service
last fall would be returning to their homes this fall having
completed training according to the present law
But. the Army and Navy Journal warns it is quite
likely that they may be held longer than that unless the
international situation grows less before TALL Con-
gress could easily extend the nowmted oneyear service

camps in large numbers will eventually be assigned to
Organized units But if National Guard components Of
those units to be sent home only few months after
the drafted arrive, the units will be dsocated for

Heart and Home: Women
should pursue duties under this

power after peace IL established.
there will be q heavy cost for
the people Of the great democ-
racy.
National Issues: Various
phases of class consciousness
will develop In the course OF ma
tional resdjustments in which
workers gain power. The stars
presage something like social
ism in government policies here,
as in England. Liberty and
equality are TO be something
more than words prominent in
the constitution. while con-
scription Of wealth will be tried.

then he has been in England. Now

No book ever written can

haps a hundred German planes
are over London now looking
for places tif they do look for
places to drop their bombs
Gradually, they are chipping
away at London as a woodman
chips away at a tree. They are
trying to kill London You can
kill tree by chopping it down.
You can't kill London by de-
stroying the buildings.
The bombs that are falling to-
night are destroying buildings
and killing people. But a bomb
cannot kill the spirit of people
And so knowing this, we laugh
little at the bombs The
buildings can be rebuilt the
conclusion gives US nothing but
headaches; our neighbors are all
prepared to die. But no one in
London is prepared to surrender.
-. These civilians are good SOL
diers. London has been hurt to-
night and will be hurt again
tomorrow night, and every night
thereafter. But no one is cry
ing. Not even the wounded. The
wounded don't cry.
