by Leonard E. Kolmer, General Man
ager of the Automobile Club of Mary
land, to join in the keep EN- Rolling
Longer movement by pledging their
100 per cent. cooperation in showing
the utmost care and caution in hand
ling and supervising parked cars left
in their care.
The request for cooperation was
made in letters addressed to the man
agement of almost 200 parking estab-
Eshments sent by Mr. Kolmer.
"A few months ago." his letter
pointed out, "a stolen car or tire could
be replaced; damaged grille easily
repaired. Skidding a tire then was a
minor matter; today it means the
waste Of irreplaceable tire mileage. A
quick sliding stop on cinder lot is
not conducive to long tire life; racing
cold motor unnecessarily has always
been careIessness, but now becomes
just plain abuse; squealing the brakes
is like dropping a baby on its head.
The Automobile Club of Maryland
believes that both management and
employees of Baltimore and Mary
land parking lots and garages can
play an important part in the keep
ing En- Rolling Longer" campaign.
For those pledging themselves to the
utmost care and caution in the hand
ling and supervision of parked cars,
the Club will publish their names in
the maryland Motorist." In addi-
ton, each parking lot will be furnish
ed with identifying signs.

She's burning pretty good" the
lookout reported. The burning YES
sci moved slowly toward midchan-
mel and then crept back toward
Savo.
On the horizon a huge mountain
of red flame rose slowly. Star shells
flew out. Of the red mass at crazy
angles. They seemed to hang there
a full minute and then darkness
began to envelop its bulk.
The burning ship was in the area
where the Japs were located. It
must have been one OF theirs.
As though the blast had been
the signal for the end of the first
act, tine firing stopped. The only
light on the horizon was the burn
ing ship.

Ten minutes later two heavy
flashes blazed from the southwest
end of Savo. Almost Immediately
there were heavy yellow blasts from
the north. 1t was not destroyer fire
much too heavy for that. Then
the whole sky beyond was Lit up
by scores Of star shells. Twenty
five or 80 miles away. they were still
bright enough to battle our cliff in

'Nips" Open Up.
Suddenly the sky lit up on the
west side of Savo.
THE Nips are opening up" the
signalman exclaimed.
The whole sky was ablaze with
mushrooms of flames from battle
ship turrets.
Incredibly rapid white flashes
came from our destroyers. Dull
yellow flashes came from beyond
Savo. The firing from the Guadal-
canal SIDE was four times as heavy
as that from the north. A red glow
suddenly stained the clouds above
Savo.
There's a hit. damned good che,

firing. fAcre firing. The tattleships
were moving steadily north and
west. The big flashes were coming
from the tip of Cape Esperance.
Lines Of rcd tracers pierced the low
hanging clouds.
Must be some cruiser planes in
the air. Yeah, there's one. Looks
like they got him. He's coming

The powerful binoculars brought
the battle close to the lookout. We
couldn't see the falling plane, but

it was right at the south edge of
Savo, and it didn't go out. A ship

hit. The two forces stood toe to
toe and slugged it out.
There was hardly pause between
the second and third acts. Without
any cessation in the fire from the
ships on the south, the smuggling
match turned into chase to the
northwest. Each brigt flash was
further away.
Somebody's Running"
WELL" the lookout said, some
body's running land it isn't us"
We watched the ship burning on
the horizon for a few minutes and
then trekked slowly down the hill
to our hunks. 1t was 1870 am.
Sunday For the third straight
night, we had watched naval action
in the Guadalcanal- Tulagi Channel.
We don't get news very quickly
here, but the reports we have re-
ceived seem to bear out our con-
viction that America has won the
greatest naval victory of the war.

Nov. is Delayed Sky and water
were ahame last night.
From cliff overlooking the ocean,
I watched an American task force
engage Japanese in one phase of
what may be the greatest Allied
naval victory of the war.
Early yesterday we heard that a
sizeable Jap force was heading our
way-25 vessels and IL transports.
We were ready for them
Throughout the afternoon reports
had been received of air contact
with enemy ships. But the Japs kept
on coming, in spite of damaging hits.
At six o'clock they were reported to
be only 60 miles away. Then a mes
sage came that five of the transports
were stopped and four were on fire.
No Word from U. S. Ships.
Until seven o'clock we had had no
word of the location of our ships.
Things were getting tight. Then we
heard:
United States battleships are
headed this way and will be in time
to intercept the enemy.
climbed to an outpost on top OF
Tulagi's cliff. Three hours went by
without incident.
Then one-two-three-fo de-
stroyers moved our way around the
north end Of Savo Island. After
two minutes. battleships appeared.
A Navy signalman peered through
binoculars. They're ours, all right"
he said.

THE destroyers are in the moon

They're going straight cross to

He continued:
They're all over by Guadalcanal
now. They're lined up from Lunga
Point along the coast to the west"
He shifted the glasses.
Wait minute! Two more de-
stroyers just came around Save. A
third one is coming down from the
tip of Florida"
Whose are they?"
We'll, they're not ours. They're

Is in the moonlight Now they're
all in line. They must have seen
something. They've all turned
around and are going like hell for
the west side of Savo."
We peered at the black outline of
Guadalcanal. Nothing but dark
ness. We felt anxiety that the Japs
were going to get away.
Look at that!" A tremendous
burst of light had split the gloom
near Lunga Point.
Il think that was a salvo from
battle wagon ~ the Navy signal
man declared. There it goes again!'
This time the heavy turret fire
was obvious. Then there was an
other blast, almost simultaneous
with one a few hundred yards
further west.
Three or four minutes later sharp
stabs of white light even further
west indicated action by our de-
stroyers. So far there had been no
