NJ A LITTLE French doctor, ohsessed

y hadn't made a safe leap with an UNI
brella from a towering height. Crete
might not have been invaded by Nazi
parachutists one terrible morning last
Spring. And someone else would have
been the patren saint of today's para

AS it is paratroops have had the
eyes Of the world focused on them
since that dramatic May 2ist last year
when a German army dropped from the
skies on the strategic Mediterranean
isle striking with lightning swiftness
before a surprised defending force
could fight them off Four days later
much of the 3 $50 square miles Of
Crete was in their hands. For the first
time IN history a vast area had been
successfully invaded from the air
BY this conquest paratroops became,

mostly with parachute jumps at county
fairs began asking how tins whole
grim business Of paratroops began

The opening date for 'ohutes was

More recently Captain Albert Berry,

Louis, Missouri, in 1912 A few years
later the high mortality of pilots
caused General William Mitchell. in
command of the A. F. F. air force in
the World War TO seek the help Of an
authority on parachutes His quest
led to James Floyd Smith, now vice
president OF the Pioneer Parachute
Company in Manchester Connecticut,
who invented folded silken chute,

TO permit the first live jump with
Smiths new chute and Leslie L. irwin,

parachute when a wing of his plane

Soft Ball League
To Hold Benefit

Arrangements for an All-Star
game between teams representing
the Rockville and Silver Spring
Softball Leagues for the benefit
of the Montgomery County U.S.O.
Campaign have been completed and
tickets are now on sale.
The game will be played on
August 7, at 8 P. M, at Welsh
Field in Rockville. Admission is
thirty-five cents and tickets may
be purchased from the manager
of any of the league teams or
Paul Wire, League President.
As most everyone knows, the
United Service Organization is
raising funds through popular
subscription to establish social and
recreational facilities for the boys
in the Army Camps. Officials of
the two leagues are hopeful that
the net proceeds from the ALL
Star game next Thursday will
form sizable contribution to the
local U. S. o. Campaign.
Last week officials of the Rock
vile League met with representa-
tives of the eight league teams
and picked an All-Star aggrega-
ton. Those selected are as fol-

A Tribute To
Louis Russell Lenhart

Germantown lost one of its
most valuable and popular citi-
zens in the untimely death of
Louis Russell Lenhart early
Wednesday morning.
Witness to the high affection
and esteem which the commu-
nifty held for him was the ire
mendous host of friends who
gathered for his funeral serv-
ices at the Nellsville Presbyte-
rian Church, where he had
served as deacon for many
years.
In every type OF activity, both
in the town and in the county
at large, he was always ready to
take his part. Friends will al
ways remember his infectious
laugh, the gay greeting he wav-
ed from the drivers seat of the
school bus, the rich tenor voice
that blended with the others in
his well-loved quartet, the eff
cient and pleasant manner in
which he handled the dealings
of his garage, the genial way in
which he led the singing of the
Sunday School.
It is fitting to know that one
of his last matters of business
was to go to Glen Echo to pur-
chase tickets for the annual
Sunday School picnic, an event
in which he always delighted.
It was part of his nature to see
that everyone was having a
good time at the picnic, and it
was always he who took the
timid children under his wing
when they went into the water.
Those who are gathering at
the picnic today Thursday will
realize only in a small part the
absence of this jovial spirit and
what his loss will mean to all
who knew him.
