Our tailback was a great runner inside tackle. We figured that if we could work the inside tackle play at an opportune time, he would act as though he was injured after be- ing tackled. One or two teammates were to sympathize with him.

 Because of the inacpacity of Techs Wally ValunaS it was ex-, pected that the game could go either way, though Leavenworth has 3 little better record than Crosby. which has scored but two points in three games. Valunas seems to have been the "key" to the Leavenworth backfield; while Crosby's Tony Lom- bard, captain and backf1eld per former who was injured last week ready for play again. the dvantage, If any, is with Crosby.
 Close For Half
 For half a game yesterday after noon, Wilby and Stratford put in g 7-0 football game; but the visitors ran away with the contest in the final pair of periods; a 26-O score resulting. Stratford scored in the first three minutes of play, but the real damage did not reshult until the third period; when Joe CarpuS ran 89O yards for touchdown. Wilby seemed on the way toward the Stratford goal after sherman recovered a tumble, and a pass added few more wards inside the Strat- for 30 yard line. Summs-y:

 Others in the undefeated class are Bathes vs. Northwestern, Coast Guard Academy vs. Norwich Ca pair of undefeated teams), and New Hampshire vs. Springfield.

up, but we must keep strong to fight and
work."
A member of my staff who returned
recently from the British Isles told me of
the extreme joy of factory workers, min
ers and merchant seamen when, because of
increased American food shipments. their
cheese ration was stepped up. The in
crease wasn't much. 1t meant that each
workers daily slice of cheese would be
about one eighth of an inch thicker but
for men and women craving protein food
it was like mama from heaven.
AMERICAN food is in the battle wherever
United Nations troops are fighting. Amer
ican dried eggs, powdered milk and dehy-
drafted meat sustain the gallant garrisons
at Malta and Gibraltar, in the Solomons
and scores of other outposts.
A limited amount of our food is even
getting through to our starving friends in
the occupied countries - in fighting Yugo-
slavia, Greece, and stricken Poland.
Everywhere, the food we are doing with
out is providing strength for the armed
forces and workers of our allies and keep
ing alive the sparks of freedom that one
day will blaze into conflagation to
sweep tyranny and slavery from the face
of the earth.
Considering all these things, told my
wife was solennly grateful that our
Thanksgiving dinner table would not be
50 sumptuously laden this year as it had
been in the past. feel that my l3O, ,OOO,0O
fellow Americans should be grateful too.
And if we are called upon to scrimp still
further on food, if we are asked to make
much greater sacrifices, let us still be
thankful.
Let us thank God for the food we aren't
eating!

~" THANKSGIVING won't be quite the
same this year," my wife said
- recently. There won't be as much
to eat"
In our home, as in millions of Others
throughout the nation, Thanksgiving has
always been one of the brightest days of
the calendar 1t has always been day of
gayety, of happy reunions and, above all,
of eating enormously for the sheer JOY of
eating.
1t will be different this year. We shall
feast, of course, and there will be turkey,
just as in the past, but some of the trim
mings will be missing. We won't use pork

was an element of smugness in our feasting.
We were like fat man dining oomplacent-
ly in a restaurant while the rest of the
world looked hungrily through the window.
We thanked God for having too much.
This year, in the midst of war, we are
neither poor nor oomplacent. We have
just harvested the largest crops in our
history, yet the Thanksgiving season finds
us scrimping in order to share our great
bounty with Others. Every day we are
taking $5,OOOOOO worth of food from our
larder and running it through gantlet
of bombs and torpedoes to our friends
and allies in other parts of the world.

Recently one of our American officials
just back from Russia told me about a

three children had grown pale and thin
from undernourishment. Now, however,
thanks to American food shipments to

should be thankful not only for the food
we eat, but also for the food we are doing
without.
In THE past, our ancestors celebrated
Thanksgiving in spirit of deep gratitude
for livelihood wrung from the wilder
ness. They were poor people who were
h,anbly grateful for the hardwon har-
vests which made possible their continued
survival They thanked God for having
barely enough.
Later, as our frontiers receded and the
land was brought under the plow, we
observed Thanksgiving with surfeit of all
good things. Too often, am afraid, there

She looked, too, and saw steady
