5000 Germans and their allies
for moving supplies, or escaping.
The fall of Kalach, on the
Stalingrad Kamensk railroad,
was reported Sunday and Trek
hostrovskaya fell yesterday to
forces pushing down from the
southwest.
(The official communicates
have not made clear the paths
being followed by the several
Russian offensive columns but
the location of the Germans
escape avenue north of Kalach
would indicate that the same Red
army which cut the Stalingrad-
Novorossisk railroad southwest
Of Stalingrad swung part of its
forces northwestward and cap
tured Kalach, which lies about
so miles due west of Stalingrad,
and then swerved west to take
Surovikhino, another 35-40 miles
west.
ROLL WESTWARD
Earlier Russian communicates
reported penetration to Cherry
shevskaya, about rs miles west
of Trekhostrovskaya, and this
gives the picture of a German

100 miles west from Stalingrad
within narrow confines before
it spreads out into relative Sc
curity for the invaders.)

built up behind the axis siege
armies, the Russians reported
yesterday that they had showed
q column down the Volga from

invaders had driven between this
sector and the main part Of the

Navy Drive for Recruits
Lays Far Behind Quote
Opening Of Intensive Compoisn
for EnIistments in 'Seobses'

Chief Yeoman Harold Cor
nell, the Recruiter in Charge of
the Thumb and River Districts,
including Mount Clemens and
vicinity, announced today that
the quota of enlistments allotted
this district for Navy Recruit
ing Month, November 7 to De-
cember 7th, the first anniver-
sary of the Japanese sneak at
tack on Pearl Harbor, is far be-
hind the number expected. He
says that to attain the number
required to fill his quota it will
be necessary to triple the pres
ent number of men already en-
listed, between now and Deem
Der 7th.
Chief Cornell is confident
that his quota will be reached,
however, and wishes to an
nounce the opening of an extern
sive drive on enlistments of
men between II and so for duty
with the "SEABEES" (the con-
struction battallions of the
Navy.
In this connection he requests
the whole-hearted cooperation
of every local citizen in publ
Ching this information among
friends and acquaintences. A
few words here and there will
cause many eligible men who
are now on the fence as to the
branch Of the service desired to
check on the possibilities offer
ed by the Navy. He says that
few words with the recruiter in
his office will convince any
man of the greater advantages
offered by the Navy over any
other branch Of the military
service.
NATURE AND DUTIES
Who and what are the duties
of the "SEABEES"?
The "SEABEES" are the men
who enlist in the Construction
Battallions of the u. S. Navy to
build advance bases outside the
Continental Limits of the United
States.
The "SEABEES" are thor
oughly trained in military tao
tics and when assigned to duty
will be able to engage in COM
bat should the occasion arise.
A few points of advantage for
men enlisting for duty with the
Nays "SEABEES" are:
Cd ALL ratings and pay are
above minimum.
(2) All "SEABEES" receive
20 per cent extra pay for foreign
service.
60 Construction or Mechani-
cal experience is not essential
for enlistment in the SEA

Held quoted Palmer as saying
that Siglow reprimanded him
for Shaping the Werderman
dog. He seized a club, struck
and missed, then threw the club
at me-" the convict said.
KNEW HE WOULD DIE
Il hit him twice over the
head and again across the back.
He slumped over and knew he
was going to die" Palmer told
Held.
Palmer insisted he was rush.
ing Siglow to a hospital. He
said a five gallon gas can and
a basket of grapes found in the
car had been placed there by
Siglow and insisted he knew
nothing of ham and some mel
Ions also found in the automo-
bile.
Held believes the provisions
and gas w1re placed there to
aid Palmer's planned escape
and that Siglow was slugged
when he learned of the plan.
Other foodstuffs were cached in
nearby corn house.
Palmer's confession was made
at jackson Prison to Held and
Trooper Clifford Goodenough, of
the Center Line State Police
post.
CAUGHT IN GEORGIA
Palmer said he fled across
open fields following the acct
dent, went to Detroit and then
hitch-hiked to Toledo. He said
he was without funds as he
begged rides until arrested at
McDonough, Ga. He first gave
his name there as Paul Mill
man.
Palmer was serving time on
car theft charge when he
walked off the Dalton Prison
Farm at Jackson on Sept. %.
He fled to the home Of relatives
at Lake Orion, dumped his pris-
on clothes into the lake and
then headed to Washington
where he had lived 10 years be-
fore.
Werderman recognized him
as former resident Of a nearby
farm and gave him work.
Siglow was at first believed
the victim of the automobile
accident, but E. A. Schwarzkoff,
Utica undertaken who rushed
him to St. Joseph's hospital be-
came suspicious, and the re-
sulting investigation revealed
he had been beaten.
Siglow died two days later in
ST. Joseph's hospital without re-
gaining consciousness.

after they are sworn in. Con-
sequently, they can keep on
working and clean up their at
fairs before going on active
duty.
go Experienced men can cash
in on their experience with the
"SEABEES"; because in most
cases experience brings higher
ratings in these battalions.
Co The "SEABEES" are pri-
marily builders. Although they
are trained to defend them
selves in case of attack, their
principal job is to build bases.
Cd "SEABEES" receive the
same uniforms and insignia as

with construction experience.
Most desired are mechanics,
carpenters, electricians, power
plant operators, blacksmiths,
metalsmiths, drillers, divers,
wharfbuilders, road machine op-
orators. Acting appointments are
made to persons between the

Chief Cornell advises that
men in Glass la of the Selec-
tive Service System even though
they have received their order
for induction will do we'll to
investigate the opportunities Of
fered by the Navy before 1t is
too late, and that as a matter of
