No U, s military observers have boon permitted at the front with either the Russians or tho Germans, 50 all they can do Is wait in Moscow ana Berlin and accept the Stercotyped statements handed them by German Russian military leaders,
 Army strAtegistS in Washington, however, have worked out their ideas on how the Russians should conduct thear campaign, And here is the U, 8, Army'S strategy;
 They would have the RNSSianS follow the same tactics as the Union armies during tho U, s, Civil War, That war saw some of the most brilliant strategy in military history, But although General Leo outfought tho North and gained far moro territory, he was never able to disrupt the Northern army, It remained in- tact

 It is probable that the Russians cannot hold too long against weM- organized panRers, But even if they lntliet terrific punishment, and fall back very slowly, it might delay action until the rainy sea- son starts in the fall: by which time tho United States will he turning out a real arsenal,
 NAP0LE0N'S LESSON
 U, s, strategistS also arc hoping the Red Army will take a leaf from the defeat of Napoleon and destroy everything in the path of the 0ermans-every barn, bridge, road and rail line, Even the wheat should be burned h tho fle,ds, though this is difneult, since Hit Ter carefully chose a period before the wheat was ripe and before 1t could be burned,
 It was this destruction of every. thing in the path of Napoleon'S army which really defeated him. But in all previous Maxi victories, their armies have advanced SO rapidly that the enemy had no time to destroy anything. The thrifty French hestitated to des- troy their buildings, their crops, their well-paved roads, but the less thrifty Russians probably will not hesitate.
 U. s. strategastS arc certain
 Hitler will take the. Ukraine and
 the areas around Lenlngrad
 within . short time. However,
 if the Soviet army Is able to fall
 back beyond these areas, and
 can keep It's forces Intact, then
 Hitler will never he able to turn
 hts back on Russia.
 At present, betting among Washington military experts is that after some of the toughest lighting this war has seen the Russians will be pushed back, in some cases close. to the Ural Mountains. There are no bets at present regarding the eventual surrender of the Russian army. vICE-PRESIDENTS BASEBALL

All championship tournaments have a tournament director in charge, wno also acts as referee, The National Laws Commission drafts the rules of the game, but they must be interpreted by the tournament director.
 Russell J. Baldwin of Cleveland IS the tournament manager of the American Contract Bridge League and is in charge of its staff of di- rectors. With the millions of com binations of hands, it is dificult for the laws commission to prepare rules for every situation, and the tournament directors are often con- fronted with baffling problems.
