battalions and worked day and
night, repairing tanks, building bar
ricadeS and eXtinguishing fires.
Thousands of girls joined sanitary
units and rescued the wounded
from battlefields under enemy fire
and from burning houses.
It was the 32nd day of the bat
/ tie of Stalingrad, which had be-
come a meat grinder for Adolph
Hitler's legions, his tanks and his
planes.
The battle inside Stalingrad was
SO close that the loss of several
houses created a tactical reverse.
The noon Soviet communique re-
ported that the Germans occupied
several houses and threatened the
flank of a unit But the Russians
counterattacked and restored the
situation.
CHILDREN CARED FOR
Hundreds of thousands of civil
ians left Stalingrad some time ago
it was revealed, crossing 10 the east
bank of the Volga.
Factory workers and young COM
muniSts, however, refused to be
evacuated Girls who belong to the
Communist party, besides nursing
duties, gathered children whose par
ents were killed by bombs and
shells and conducted them to
big kindergarten.
A correspondent, writing for Ko-
msomolskaya Pravada, organ of the
Communist young party, said that
young girls in a two-day battle in
the suburbs ran the guantlet of
fire to take wounded from battle
field. When they returned, they
luggd heavy cases of ammunition.
The correspondent reported that
the soldiers were SO inspired by the
girls heroiSm that they drove the
enemy back and recaptured a fac
tory and an airfield.

Saturday night at Palace, accord
ing to reservations made through
Harold Allen. Two finalists al
ready are determined. The third

week.
Norge-Marygrove gained the
western laurels last night over
Burkes on the latter's home alleys
at Bowling Green. 1880 TO 2577,
taking all four points. The game
scores were 975-880, 914-8S8. 951-

scorers.
BEDFORD finishes second and

after Is postponements are rolled
off during the week, Secretary
James T. Jackson reports.
At Palace Saturday night the
plan is 10 have all three teams
roll across six alleys and total
pins to count. That means speedy
disposal of the play-off instead OF
the slower home-and-home round
robin matches of recent years.

Joe Sutkd Says
He Quit Ring if
Edgar Beats Him
Brother George Made
That Same Promise;
He Lost. and Kept II

It wasn't so long ago that
George Sutka announced to the
world in general that il he didn't
beat Dave Clark he was going to
retire from the ring.
That was in October. 1889, and
Clark won over the doughty bat
tier by a technical knockout.
George kept his promise. and to-
day he's a member of the Wyan-
dotte police force.
And today, just two and a half
years later, brother Joey Sutka is
making the same promise. He
meets Jimmy Edgar in the eight
round semifinal of the Red Bur-
lman-Frank Zamaris show Thurs
day at the State Fair Coliseum.
VETERAN CAMPAIGNER
Pal Joey has been campaigning
for many yea. While he has met
lalmost all OF the middleweight
championship fight, he has yet to
win title.
1t hasn't been for lack OF heart,
however, for local fans will long
remember that night two years
ago when he went out of his divi-
sion to absorb a terrific lacing
from Anton Christoforidis. He's a
hard man TO beat. and even Ray
Robinson rates him as the tough
est man he's met.
But joey figures It's now time
for him to make the same decision
his brother made. II he loses this
one, it's the end of the trail.
Edgar should experience plenty
of trouble with Sutka after the
setups he's been walking through
What's more. he'll be going eight
rounds for the first time.
Another preliminary attracting
attention is the one matchmaker
Tom Walsh has made between Lou
Woods and Rocky Luciano
Buffalo middleweight. Luciano has
appeared on Madison Square
Garden cards. teStifying, at least
to his reputation, and Woods
should have his hands full.

PRO-AMATEURS CUT

The number of pro-amateurs has
been reduced approximately one
half as the pros go on a wartime
basis for the season. Instead of a
pro-amateur every Monday, there
will be only two a month. The
change was made to open the way
for more exhibitions for the benefit
Iof patriotic organizations which
the pros will be called upon tc
play throughout the state.
The Michigan PEA tournament

four days, becomes one-day
medal play affair of 80 holes. The
last time it was played at media
play was in 1921. AL Watrous, who
won the title then, will be the
defending champion this time
The tournament probably will be
played at Red Run in September
Plans are going forward for the
Michigan Open at Meadowbrook
although the date hasn't been Sc
as yet. But because so many o.
the leading amateurs are in the
armed forces the annual all-stal
match between the pros and anna
Iteurs has been abandoned.

WENDELL L. WILLKIE, CITIZEN

"Momentary delusions of grandeur have affected MT Willkie's conduct adversely in the past They robbed him of some of the effectiveness of his pagn tour of the United States two years ago. But the setting now is even more complicated, and the risk of complications greater when, for instance he essays the role of military srategist Russia and United Nations policy framer in China"
 Well, Wendell stuck his chin out when he made up his mind go on his recent tour and the above is on example of how part of the American press interpreted the junket.
 At about the time the above little jewel was being written, Willkie was in China explaining to the Chinese people and leaders his status He had been commissioned he said to do certain things for the President. In doing them he acted as the Presidents representative
 He had not been commissioned he said to make any public statements Consequently, whatever he said in China Russia his own. He wasn't a military strategst and he didn't say he was He wasn't policy framer and he didn't claim to be He plain Wendell L. Willke, citizen of the United States. In his own words, as he said in China:
 T speak for else and no one else speaks for me. When I speak for myself I'm Wendell Will kie, and say what I damn please"
 He said what he damned pleased. He said it again the other day in speech to the nation
 He very critical
 He hit where it hurt Many times
 It the sort of an outspoken speech that Americans could understand-and needed
 But keep this in mind. He was speaking not as representative of the Republican Party as a representative of MT Roosevelt or as a once presidential candidate who collected the votes of 23,000,000 Americans. He speaking as Wendell Willke, the man.

The regular meeting of the Moose has been postponed for one week so tomorrow night, starting at 8 o'clock, the joint celebration will begin.
 Special games and entertainment have been arranged by the chil- dren of the Moose and the young sters will be in charge of MT. and Mrs. Glenn E. Allen. Special en- tertainment and features have been arranged for the Moose and Wo- men of the Moose.
 The House Committee has an- inounced that the usual Thanks giving Turkey Gobble will be held on November 6, for Moose members only and the annual Christmas Gobble may be for the public but this has not been officially decided.

 Every day thousands of US. sol- diers are riding train for the first time in their lives, and many are getting Pullman rides. In fact, 60 percent of all troop movement is by Pullman car, under Army regu- lations governing overnight move ment.
 Troops are packed into the Pullmans, 39 to a car-two in each lower berth, one in each upper, and three in the drawing room. Of the 1000 Pullman sleepers in the country, the armed forces have used as many as $500 at one time
 This is a highly profitable busi- ness to the railroads. For official troop movements, the Government pays the current rate for civilian tickets minus five percent. An d when soldiers travel by Pullman, the Government pays the Pullman rate.
