Wylie will play his usual so or
60 minutes on game days and
coach the rest of the week.
If Art pulls a boner, Sayles sug-

him to do--go to the sidelines,
beckon to a sub and say: Go in
there at tackle for that thick
headed Wylie. Won't he ever get

Visitors HurIer Fans
II But Loses Il Game

Sundays game with at least
their regulations.
However behind the handy
pitching of Lyle Bliss, Dairy
took a bitterly contested game
from the visitors 81 at Covered
Wagon diamond. Bliss allowed
six hits, three of them being
raped out by Supina, the Wis
itor's second sacker.
Dairy rammed across its first
run in the second when Tommy
Harrington singled, went to
second on a single by Chuck
Owen, and Harrington scored
when Bannow slapped a drive
TO second base that was too hot
to handle.
The winning tally came in
the eighth when Willard Farris,
Dairy's first tacker, singled,
stole second, and scored when
Herrington's drive to third base
was muffed.
Taking advantage of the neb-
ulous quantity known as the
breaks" pulled Dairy out of this
game with the victory, in view
of the fact that Hicks, on the
mound for the invaders, famed
IL Dairymen in brilliant
mound performance.
Dallying at the plate made
Hicks task a formidable one,
and it wasn't until the ninth that
his team mates managed to
squeeze out run for him. That
run came when Buck, Hicks
battery mate, Dashed out a
single, took second on an error,
and scored on a single by Su-
pima, the big gun of the opposi-
ton.
Bliss only famed three, but
kept the game we'll under con-

PACIFIC FRONT:
Action Continues

Allied bombing attacks against
Japanese bases in New Guinea con-
tinued with smashing blows taking a
heavy toll in the battle area. Lac
and Salamaua were targets for the
main attacks. Two bombers were
destroyed on the ground at the Lac
airdrome, where II tons of bombs
were dropped on installations.
The communique stated that
ground action in the Owen Stanley
mountain range, where the Japs
were halted about 40 miles north of
the Port Moresby base, was con-
fined to patrol activity.
Meanwhile, the battle of the Solo
mons seemed to have settled down
to a battle of supply lines. The
United States and Australia have
poured planes and supplies in to the
marines on Guadalcanal and Tulagi
against japanese sea and air oppo-
Sition.
The Japs have not attacked in
force since the major battle on Au-
gust "a and Is, when U. S. forces de-
feated an enemy invasion force of
more than 40 ships. They have con-
tinued their occasional bombing for
avs and attacks with light naval
craft. Recently the japanese have
bombed from high attitudes, using
! delayed action bombs.

RUSSIA:
Maxi AdUance

While Nazi troops besieging Sta
lingrad battled for a decision the
German air force was reported to
be concentrating its attack on Volga
shipping, rail and highway commu-
nications as far southeast as Astra-
khan, where the Volga flows into the
Caspian sea.
The Russian high command an
nounced that REINFORCED German
troops had made a further advance
southwest of Stalingrad. German
broadcasts told of Nazi troops en-
tering the southern part of the city
after capturing additional fortifica-
tions. However, the Russians
claimed they were holding firm to
the west.
The Red communique reported a
new enemy drive on the western
bank of the Don river, south of Voro-
nezh, employing an entire infantry
division and 100 tanks. The Ger
mans were said to have lost 1000
officers and men. In the Volkhov
sector east of Leningrad the Ger
mans were reported battling for a
12-mile stretch of the important Len
ingrad-Vologda railway.
Brighter reports came from the
deep Caucasus. German troops in
the mountainous region around MOI
dok were said to be withdrawing
northward." Observers noted that
recent SHOWS in the Caucasus may
have caused the withdrawal and
said that the Axis may have re-
linguished hope of reaching the Cas-.
plan sea in that area before winter.
