COFFEE, OVERALLS:
One Doaun: the Other Up

The possibilities of coffee ration
ing appeared more imminent with
the governments order to restrict
deliveries to dealers to 65 per cent
of last years deliveries as COM
pared with the present monthly quo
ia Of rs per cent.
The decrease in coffee deliveries
was but one of several actions which
will bring the war ever closer to
Mr.. and Mrs. John Public.
Increased employment has result
ed in steps by the War Production
board to make cotton looms turn
out more rugged fabrics needed for
serviceable work clothes.
The theater-going public may have
reduced fare in the not so distant
future. Operators of movie and
stage theaters were warned by WPB
that shortages of materials would
make it increasingly difficult to keep
all show houses open.

MISCELLANY:

COMMANDER: An ace of World
War I, Brig. Gen. Clayton L. Bis
sell, was appointed commander of
U. S. army air forces in China, Bur-
ma and India.
IMPROVED: Returning from an
official tour of Alaska, Sen. Mon c.
Wallgren of Washington announced
himself ''much improved by the i'm
proved military situation" in the
Aleutians.
SUNK: American submarines,
hammering at Japan's extended Pa
cific communication lines, sank four
and damaged two more enemy ships.
Two cargo ships and a large trans
port were sunk in the western Pa
cific. A large merchant ship was
sunk off the Aleutians.
TEAM: Henry Kaiser, western
shipbuilding wizard, and Howard
Hughes, noted round-the-world fiier,
have announced they are joining in

ing freighters'' to carry important
war supplies to the fighting fronts

COMMANDO RAID:
Official Success

AS Allied service chiefs studied
the results of the Commando raid
on Dieppe, official sources declared
that the operation fulfilled its objec-
tive. Valuable information on Nazi
defenses was secured.
The raid, employing British and
Canadian Commands supported by
American Rangers, was a nine-hour
battle on the Nazi-fortified coastal
defenses at Dieppe, midway between
Calais and LIE Havre. Initial Ger
man estimates placed the invader
force at $4,000, but the exact num-
Der remained an Allied secret. The
force carried tanks and artillery
with them.
AS the result of heavy fighting
our casualties were high but
not unduly so in view of the opera
tion," the British communicate said.
The navy lost a fairly large num-
Der of landing craft because naval
craft did not leave the French coast
until it was known that every posi-
BILE man had been taken off,"
The raiders were reported to have
destroyed ammunition dumps, six
gun shore artillery battery, a large
anti-aircraft battery and q radio To-
cation station.
Reports from Vichy placed British
dead at 500.

ALLOTMENT:
Speed.Up

Dependents of enlisted men in the
U. S. armed forces will be getting
their allotments earlier than Novem-
Der under the terms of a bill
passed by congress and now signed
by the President.
After the President had affixed his
signature the navy said it would is
sue such allotment checks Every
soon" and the army announced that
their payments would start early in
September.
Originally these payments would
have started November l, although
applications filed early would be re-
troactive to June /. Basic payment
to dependents is $50 per month, serv-
icemen contributing $22 and the
army or navy $28.
1t could not be determined how
many applications for such pay
ments had been made to the army
or navy. It was estimated how
ever that about half the men in the
service would have dependents re-
ceiving the allotments.

LARGEST CONVOY:
Arriues In ENGLAND

Shape of things to come in Europe
was clearly etched by the announce
ment that the largest U. S. troop con-
voy ever attempted in this war had
landed safely in Great Britain. Mil
itary experts quickly viewed this
move as speed-up gesture in Unit
ed Nations second front plans.
Included in the convoy were
"many thousands" of soldiers and
airmen plus vast quantities of war
materials. Troops were swiftly dis
embarked and scattered to the in
terror of England, there to join 9TH
er units already in training for the
attack on German held Europe.
Especial units" and "task forces"
in the convoy added weight to the
theory that U. S. troops will play an
increasing role in future Commando
raids or other action on the CONT
nent.

RUSSIA:
Bloody Battle

Good news resulting from Allied
offensives in the Pacific was offset
by continued reversals on the Rus
sian front. AS the Nazi pincer move
ment drove relentlessly toward
Stalingrad, the official Soviet COM
munique admitted new crossings of
the Don river.
"In the area northeast of Kotel-
nikovo," the communique said, "our
troops fought intensive battles with
large tank and infantry forces. On
various sectors the Germans, at the
cost of tremendous losses, managed
to advance"
Fresh Nazi achievements,
brought out of the reserve pool or
shifted from other sectors, were
thrown into the bloody battle for
Stalingrad. The reckless disregard
of losses gave evidence of Nazi des-
peration for knockout blow to the
Red army.
Stalingrad is a rich prize. It's
prime Importance is in its location
on the Volga river, along which the
oil of Baku and Allied supplies
shipped through the Persian gulf
reach central Russia. In addition,
the city's huge plants produce tanks
and war supplies, and its oil re-
fineries add to its strategic value.

human weakness. Too many think
they know enough when no one
knows much. Especially in these
days no one knows nearly enough.
'What fine thing it would be to
have many more people adopting
Carl Hubbell's method of still trying
to learn after SO many years at
the top"
The Meager Minority
This happens to be 100 per cent
true. Well take the argument back
to sport.
Those who happen to lack GER
tain qualifications in the way of skill
or knack, get discouraged too cas-
lily and give up.
They either lack the determina-
ton to keep trying or they fail to
understand how much they might
learn from others that would carry
them out Of the rut.
Many of those who happen to be
rugged out with speed or skill or
the winning knack take it for grant
ed they are approaching the super
man class and so need no further
instruction or improvement.
There never was a human being
who knew it all, or anything even
approaching the ultimate.
You'll find that Cobb and Tilden
were still experimenting, studying,
working on new angles after more
than twenty years of championship
competition.
We could also name number of
others who stopped learning quickly
and showed no particular improve
ment in later years.
They had nothing to learn from
coaches or trainers.
Old timers were jokes. They al
ready had the answers.

BRAZIL AT WAR:
First In South america

Angered by months of Axis agrees
sion, Brazil became the first South
American nation to declare war
upon Germany and Italy, thus swell
ing the ranks of the United Nations
to 20. Brazil's declaration of state
of war climaxed a week filled with
mass demonstrations against the
Axis sinking of five Brazilian ships
with the loss of approximately 600
lives.
The state of war did not include
Japan, although Brazil broke diplo-
matte relations with all three Axis
nations last January.
The declaration of war cleared the
way for immediate measures to
secure the protection of what has
been termed the most vulnerable
land area on the Atlantic side of
the Western hemisphere-the Natal
bulge only 1000 miles from Dakar
in Africa. Military men long have
pointed to this sector as the place
where Axis forces would strike first
if they were able to consolidate their
African and European positions.
Brig. Gen. Amaro Soares Bitten
court, Brazilian military attache to
the United States, said that Brazil
sis defending the continent" and
that 1--WE must congregate and re-
unite all our military elements for
the defense of the northeast, the
strategical point on the bulge of
Brazil for invasion by the Axis"

Walter Camp and Fudge

Years ago Walter Camp told me
an interesting experience he had
had with Fudge Heffelfnger, foot
ball star who lasted over 30 years.
'Pudge was so good" Camp said,
"that / was afraid he would be an
other know-it-all. I'm place of that
he kept coming to me for more ad-
vice ON guard play. I showed him
three new variations. Later ON he
came back and told me he had
learned four new angles. One of
these was the possibility Of the rum
ming guard. How many people know
that Fudge Heffelfnger had worked
out and developed the correct meth
cd Of the running guard around 1889
or 1902"
All / know is that as late as 1921
or 1922 Heffe1fnger, then SO years
old, kept telling Bo McMillin, then
%, to speed up his start and give
him a chance to lead that interfer-
ence. Ask Bo.
''The more you know, the easier
any game is" an old-time trainer
said recently. "You can save your
self so much and last so much long
er. You can often handle superior
physical power and even greater
natural skill by knowing more than
your rival does. But this can only
come from trying to learn every
thing you can as you 60 along.
