NOT A YARD GIVEN UP

said. with his phantom Of a smile.
From the first moment I had
been struck by 1t. Col. Polevoi's
face. The nose. cheekbones. the
Jaw, all were sharp-as II chiseled
out of granite. II was a slightly
haggard face, but his gray-blue
eyes held you whenever he spoke.

But with all that and with

hold the Elbow?" I asked him.
Lt.Col. Polevoi's eyes lighted, his
jaw shut tight. He made a swift
gesture with a closed fist.
"By moral FORCE he de-
clared, In . ringing voice.
Then, with q second iron
gesture and another snap Of
his jaws, the lieutenant colonel
repeated: BY moral force"
] thought of those people, in
GLIDING Charles Lindbergh, who in
the winter and spring of 1e41
were saying that both Britain and
the United States could never out
