WASHINGTON, May 21. (UP)-
United States merchant vessels are
going into the hazardous service of
supply to British forces in the Neal
East despite the fate of the Egyp
tian steamer Zamzam and emphatic
advice from Vichy that the Dakar
air base is at Germany's service.
The maritime commission re-
vealed in a circular addressed to
newspaper editors that it was going
ahead with the Red Sea service
Elaborate plans for it had been
made before these developments
took place:
/. Germany threatened to sink
vessels entering the Red Sea in the
interests of British forces in the
Middle East.

London Paper Asks
U. s. Entry in War

LONDON, May 81. (UP)-Ihe
London News Chronicle appealed
to the United States today to enter
the war Immediately, mot to save
us from defeat but to help us to
victOry-quickly.'
The newspaper said without AM
erican fighting aid. Britain would
require a long time-perhaps years
to beat the Axis, but if you come
in and come in fighting, we can
whip these savageS back into their
caves before the end of next year"
I'VE now feel the time has come
Tor us to speak frankly to you and
tell you that now we want more
from you than arms, more than
knitted comforts and bandages
more than words of sympathy. We,
the British people, want you, the
American people, in this war on our
side-fighting."

1900 parachutists around Suda bay,
near west end of the island on Tues
day evening.
The Germans made heavy dive
bomber attacks on the areas. he
said. and then Nazi gliders dropped
down and disgorged troops who
rushed together after they landed
and opened attacks on the three
points. Parachutists also were drop
ped.
Many German troop carrying
craft were shot down or crashed
he said, and a majority of the 3,00C
men landed for the Suda bay at
tack were accounted for by 6:3C
p. m.
But meanwhile, at $50 p. m
landings began in the Heraclean
and Retimo sectors.
The prime minister had no details
of the outcome of the HeracleaT
and Retimo battles, but said the
actions continued.
Churchills statement did not give
clear indication of the number
of invaders landed on Crete.
British authorities previously hac
said that, after a recheck of advice,
from Crete, they were not certain
of the exact number estimated tC
have landed. On the oasis of period.
ic reports received by authoritative
sources in London the landings were
as follows:
An entire air division of abou
1000 men, including some para
chutiSts.
About 1,500 parachutists reported
by Churchill to have landed earl,
Tuesday wearing the uniforms o
New Zealand troops.
About 5000 dropped near Sudt
Bay at 4:30 pm. Tuesday. British
authorities said, however, that tn
5000 near Suda Bay may have beer
part of the air division of 1000
thus making a total of $500 men.
Reinforcements, however, were be-
lieved still to be eli route from

Flag Race DopeGiven,
 NatI. Loop

CINCINNATI, April 9. - Here's one reason why some baseball writers favor Cincinnati over Brooklyn in this seasons National League pennant race:
 Take the top two pitchers cn each equad-Walters and Derrin- ger of the Reds and Wyatt and Higbe of the Dodgers tusing Hig- be's 1940 record with the Phillies).
 Against Brooklyn Derringer won four games while Walters won four and lost two. Total: 8 to 9.
 Against Cincinnati. Wyatt won none, lost five, while Higbe won l, lost 5.
 When pennant rivals are pitted against each other each triumph is worth two. So the margin of the Cincinnati pitchers adds up to some Is games, enough difference to win several pennants.
 Brooklyns counter to this sta tistical blow is that this year is another year and that perhaps the pitchers records will he reversed.

ATLANTA, Ga, April 22.-Major League baseball clubs are overlook ing a good bet by not substituting high school teams, says Athletic Director w. A. Alexander of Geor- gia Tech.
 Alexander, who has been Techs football tactician for two decades, let down his hair after watching Coach Roy Mundorffs baseball squad go through it's paces.

Tn the spring a young mans fam cy lightly turns to thoughts of--' Pshaw! am no longer a young man, but like thousands of fellow human beings spring turns my attention to an increasing degree to the vegeta- tion awakening about me and there are many who do love to work in their gardens.
 This season has been unusually warm, with no freezing weather since early in March, the result be- ing that spring growth is fully two weeks more advanced than in an average season.
 General Suggestions
 Here are a few general sugges- tions regarding your garden plant ing:
 Trees and shrubs should be plant ed as soon as you can prepare the soil in the spring. After they start spring growth the shock due to transplanting increases as the growth proceeds. About the only exceptions to this rue are Azaleas and Rhododendrons which make a great mass of very fine roots which hold the soil together in compact ball, and can be moved at any time, even when in full flower.
 Many hardy perennial plants should be moved or divided as soon in spring as the ground can be work ed. If divided or set out early they make much more satisfactory growth than in the planting is de- layed. Quite few of the perennials are best if taken up and divided or set out right after they are through Towering. Some can be divided or

lege, or minor league farms.
 What happens?" he said. "The kids play sandlot baseball under sponsorship of the American Le- zion. toward which the major leagues annually contribute a large sum. Then they go to high school, most of them, where there is no team. This causes gap be- tween their sandlot play and their play at college. They are too young as high school players to make the grade at semi-pro base ball or even city amateur ball. There is a four-year period in which they get no baseball train ing.
 "A major league team could provide high school with base ball for hundred dollars. What they need more than anything else is playing equipment, mostly gloves and bats. Such a tie-up would prove invaluable for major league teams.
 They ought to hire sort of commissioner or contact man to travel and assist high schools with their baseball program. If they don't do something like that, they are going to find it impossible 10 keep the game up to it's present standard. There will not be nearly enough practiced young players to supply the demand"
