threshold of the voters, may
fool them both.
In other contests, as we'll as
in those mentioned, the candi-
dates have, in the main, sought
to carry their messages to the
voting public to a large extent
through the columns of news
papers, knowing as they do, that
it is particularly difficult to get
crowds out to rallies in this
wartime era of tire conservation
and all-out war production.
Maeemb- eounty's sole COP
candidate for the state senate,
Prosecuting Attorney Ivan A.
Johnston, an astute and capable
young veteran of the political
wars, is reported to have con-
centrated his guns on the north
ern counties of the district while
not neglecting the so-necessary
vote of the "home folks" in Ma
comb county.
When the votes are cast,
on Tuesday, and the long
pull for final victory in the gen
eral elections, Nov. 3, begins the
county, as in other years, may
expect a grim tug-of-war for the
votes which will decide the
course of local and state govern
ment throughout the next two
years.
The boys have five days to go
in which to hop the first hurdle
that of party endorsement;
it should be an interested week,
according to the boys who make
of politics, and things political,
an absorbing hobby.
And they, admittedly, know
as little about the outcome as
the candidates who are in there
pitching for the vote.

/ Runyan shot down two enemy
dive bombers over Guadalcanal
on July 8, and one torpedo
bomber and one Zero the fol-
lowing day.
Lieut.. Louis Bauer, 1922
Tulpehocken ST., Philadelphia.
the captain of Runyan's squad
ron, got one dive-bomber in to-
days fight bouncing on him af-
ter a dive and sending him
crashing into the sea in flames.
He also ran a Zero into the sea
after another pilot had punctur-
ed its gas tanks.
Lieutenants Jensen an d
Starkes, who got three each in
the Gualdalcanal battle of July
8, repeated those performances
today. Jensen, with Starkes as
wingman, jumped the group of
Jap divebombers behind the
squadron that Runyan hit. Jen-
sen had this to say:
Ten Zeros were up-there
when we hit the dive-bombers
after diving 5000 feet onto
them. The Japs were in a tight
wee formation. l hit the tail man
on the right of the wee in the
first pass, and in the same pass
hit the last plane on the left

by then"
STARkE'S STORY
This is Lieut.. Starkes' story:
Il followed Jensen onto the
dive bombers and saw him
knock two off easily. That's one
thing about Jens. He always
leads you to where there's good
pickings.
II made runs on dive-bombers
and got one on my fourth pass,
and another on my fifth. / saw a
Zero on another Grumman's tail

The third pilot in Jensen's di-
vision, Ensign John Kleinmann
of Kissimmee, Fla, got two
dive bombers.
Ensign F. r. CASH Register
of Bismarck, N. D., said:
81 think I'm the guy whose
tail Starkes got the Zero off of,
il you get what I mean. Before
that, | shot down a couple of
Japs myself at the beginning of
the fight. l caught a Zero in a
climb. He dove from $4,000 to
5000 feet with me behind, and
the pilot was gradually losing
control although the plane was
not burning.
AT 5000 the pilot jumped,
although he had no parachute as
far as ! saw.

my guns were empty, and
two Zeros jumped me. I turned
into one and bluffed him into
running away. The other got on
my tail and was shooting me
when Starkes got him off,"
Ensigns Mark (High Pockets)
Bright, 822 High street, Ander-
son, Ind, and Harry March Jr.,
$500 Thirty-second ST., N. w.,
Washington. D. c., were among
four American pilots who shot
down eight japanese torpedo
planes.
March related:
1T took us quite awhile to
get them. About three minutes,
/ think.
CLOSE TO WATER
"They were flying very close
to the water, so close that one
Of our pilots chased one into the
sea-just flew right down on
top of him and the Jap flew
lower and crashed into the wa
ter. We shot down the rest"
Bright, who is credited with
three Jap dive-bombers shot
down at Tulagi on Aug. 7, and
two assists, got one torpedo
plane today.
Lieut.. Fred Schroeder of Port
Richmond, Staten Island, N. Y
is credited with one torpedo
plane. Schroeder's plane came
up behind the Jap in pulling
out of a dive over a Jap carrier,
and rear gunner A. w. Dobson
of Tulsa, Okla, peppered him
until he hit the water.
ATTACK AGAIN
Returning from a raid on a
Jap carrier, our dive-bomber
pilots encountered Jap dive
bombers which they attacked.
Lieut.. M. p. MacNair, former
ly of Tarrytown, N. Y, whose
wife lives at 641 G. ST.. Coro-
nado, Calf. described this
scrap:
-Four Jap planes suddenly
doomed in front and just below
us, on the opposite course. Our
leader, 1t. Commander Lou
Kim, turned into them and we
all followed and started shoot
ing. The range closed with light
ming speed and our first bursts
were fired at only 200 feet. Each
of our pilots fired as they
whizzed past, and then our rear
gunners gave them burst.

flaming and another followed. A
third pulled up smoking, then

G.. Jean Aulick, aviation radio
machinist first class of Coving-

dive-bomber from his turret gun
position in a Grammar torpedo
plane. He related:

cost on that project was fixed at

shown TO federal authorities
later this week. He hopes to
have n call for bids out next
Monday, returnable the Mon
