Hints of the scope of the battle
came from the Pacific area. Mac
Arthur's tirmen have reported a
japanese invasion fleet packed 10

canal. Dispatches from New
Guinea quoted filters as saying the
convoy was so large I'VE never

A naval spokesman said there is
mo question that the enemy is
engaged in a real effort" to re-
take the first land taken from
them since Pearl Harbor.
The only definite reports on the
present fighting came from Toxic,
which usually exaggerates claims
of damage I'd opponents. Toxic
radio rept~ted that six Allied
CT Users and one destroyer were
sunk. two cruisers and three de-
stroyers damaged and 10 aircraft
shot down. 1t admitted the loss
of two destroyers and damage 10

Mrs. Sabourin Tells
Challenge of Life

Mrs. Johanna sabourin. speaking
to the Westminster League OF the
First Presbyterian Church Sunday
evening in the social rooms Of the
church. told OF the challenge OF life
that eonfronts all young people
who have had privileges. She re-
ierred TO the college students as
the youth with the greatest priyi-
leges: thus charging them with a
greater amount OF responsibility.
The speaker told the youth OF the
league 10 accept the challenge OF
creating a better world. by living
example. She pointed out that as
they 60 out into the various COM
munlties they will need to set the
standards. And TO set standards
they will need to accept such high
planes OF life themselves that no
one can doubt their sincerity. She
reminded the group that the &C.
ceptance OF such a challenge would
mean that each one would have TO
give up things and do without
much. She also pointed out that all
the things people have been asked
to sacrifice thus far for The war,
are things that contribute to the
the outside OF life and nothing that
will hinder the inner. She said the
urge for fine inner life must come
from God and the person who starts
out 10 live such q way of life must
be able at all times to account for
the faith that Is within them
