God makes us stronger. The more
difficult seems the material condi-

stronger should be our faith anG

John says: There is no fear ir

Dodgers Besf-BoIonced
Team in Baseball

THE Brooklyn Buns are, in all
/ probability, the best and best
balanced team in baseball today, so
says Bill Corum in the October
Cosmopolitan magazine. And with
those words Mr.. Corum sticks his
neck out far enough to let the
Yankee and American League fans
give it a good wringing.
A change has come over the
Brooklyn team and its position in
the baseball world in the past six
months. A year ago fans from
coast to coast were roofing for
them. They were the rags-to-riches
outfit that everybody loved. Except
in Brooklyn itself-where they are
still the beautiful Bums-all that
has changed. Now everyone is
against the Dodgers and their lead
er, Leo 1.-THE Lip Durocher. They
are the most embattled team in
baseball. There isn't club in the
National League that doesn't fight
them tooth and toenail.
Why? Because they are riding
high. They're in the money. They
have two training camps-one in
Havana, one in Daytona Beach,
Florida. The newspapers give them
more space than any other three
teams put together. They've gone
ritzy with an organ in Ebbets Field
and the good neighbors of Brooklyn
who live nearby promptly filed suit.
Another legal battle looms with
ticket spectators.

Thrills and Dangers
Of Convoy Travelling

no you're pickering because
II there's precious little fuel for
your oil burner and even less for
your car? Have you stopped to
think what it is costing in human
lives to bring you oil and what the
men who man our conveys are do
ing at sea, the dangers they are
enduring every minute they are out
in those mine-and submarine-in-
Tested waters? An eyewitness view
of one-man's narrowing experiences
on a Coast Guard Cutter escorting
convoy is told with hair-raising
vividness by Correspondent George
Durno in the October issue of Cos
mopolitan magazine.
All war movements are closely
guarded secrets. Mr.. Durno's as
signment was blind one. He was
rushed to a dock front where a
flotilla of Coast Guard cutters were
waiting. Tankers and freighters
were tied up alongside a British
armed trawler. All the cutters
headed out to anchorage. The con-
voy started out of port, cargo YES
sells in single file. They were hardly
out of port forty-five minutes when
a violent explosion rocked the
OCEAN. A big collier in their convoy
of merchantmen had hit Nazi
mine. Clouds of smoke and geyser-
ing water surrounded the mer-
chantmen. Orders came, signals
flew and like a flash subchasers
raced toward the sinking ship. Their
came a second explosion. The ship
capsized. Slowly the collier sank.
Men in life jackets were bobbing
about the oily waters. Forty-four
survivors were dragged to safety,
three were missing. The rescued
were swiftly put on a shorebound
patrol boat.

Does walking and driving in al
most-pitch-dark streets at night
annoy you? Are you impatient be-
cause you are inconvenience? If
you were out in mid-ocean, you'd
find the blackout even more eerie
and uncomfortable. When a lighted
match can be seen for several miles
at sea and put the lives of thou
sands of men in danger, heaven
help the man who tries to light a
cigarette. He'll get good round
cursing from his shipmates.
Bad as it is, it isn't all grim.
Amid the tossing and turning of
the Cutter, John Newman, first
class cook, turned out chicken
dinner with all the trimmings-in
a galley big enough to put in your
vest-pocket.

AS always George, Dribbles is
more than pleased to learn that
you are forging right ahead. Now
that you are stationed nearer to
the Old Home Town, we have every
right to expect to see more of you;
that is providing you spend your
time this far North when you make
your weekend trips over this way.
OF course, Dribbles would not
blame you one bit if you fell asleep
on the Bus coming down, and did
not awaken until you passed just
south of Dover. This would be a
most natural thing to do, especial
ly when one studies so hard all
week. Anyway, you might look us
up when you have few spare mo-
ments. 1t goes without saying, that
Dribbles will always be glad to see
you.

Our boys at the front need a

Corporal Charles, Dribbles was
very glad to receive your short let
ter. Now that you have broken the
ice, as it were, why not write in to
the column a bit more frequently;
we will always be pleased to hear
from you; know how you are pro-
crossing, and where your different
transfers carry you. 1t is indeed a
real pleasure to serve boys In The
Service, and we want you to feel
right at home here in this column
Best of luck Corporal Stewart, and
may fortune favor you as time con-
tinues.

The above post card was received
by Henry Shapley quite recently.
He very kindly turned it over to
the column for publication. The
picture on the reverse side of the
card showed a beautiful picture of
the Neuse River at Goldsboro, N. G..
1T is doubtful, however, if the new
recruits shipped to Goldsboro see
anything so very enchanting in the
scenery there. Perhaps their
thoughts wander back home, dur
ing their spare moments, where
they have left behind many friends
and loved ones. Dribbles is always
glad to hear from Our Boys In The
Service, direct or indirect. Best
of the best Edward. We hope that
you will benefit a lot by your train
ing down at Goldsboro Field. Drop

I am sending you a copy of my
sons letter which I received Sep
