this sort Is always q most difncult
and dangerous operation: and in
this instance 1t was especially so as
the enemy had succeeded in bring

batteries, mortars and additional in

Although this enabled him to or
ganize very heavy fire on both the
beaches and the sea approaches. and

suffered sporadic attacks by dive

went into the beaches again and

acts of gallantry in carrying wound

During this phase destroyers closed
the beaches almost to the point of

re-embarkation by fire and to pick
up survivors.

Air Cover Magnificent.
Naval and air support and pro-
lection.
The splendid assistance given by
the Royal Navy has already been
referred to. No terms could be toe
warm to describe it. There are on
file statements by many members
of the Canadian military forces
from private soldiers upward, which
testify TO their deep understanding
and most grateful appreciation oil
the manner in which the nava
forces ran all risks to assist the
troops.
Air cover and bombing were like
wise magnificent, and drew equally
warm tributes from the troops and
from the Navy
Throughout the operation, both
the air force and the Navy provided
/ smoke screens at the times anG
places where they were required
which greatly reduced casualties tc
ships and personnel.
The distinguished part played In
these operations by both Canadian
sailors and Canadian airmen ha.
excited the warmest appreciation on
the part OF the Canadian Army
Considerable numbers of Canadian
naval ofiicers and ratings were en-
gagged on board the naval vessels:
one f1otilla OF landing craft was
almost entirely manned by Canadi-
! an naval personnel.
Numerous cases of gallantry or

| Operation Still Studied.
Results Of the operation:
1t has already been made clear
| that comparatively little can be said
! at present concerning the results OF
the raid. The operation is still be-
ing most carefully studied with q
view to extracting from it every
/ possible lesson which may assist us
! in future operations and the value
of the experience gained at Dieppe
will appear only in the future course
of the war.
At the present time, no public
analysis OF the lessons learned il
possible without giving assistance tt
the enemy. Certain points of i'm.
portance can, however, be made
here.
A large naval force crossed the
channel and approached the French
coast. Protected by powerful all
support, it remained off that coast
for many hours, with the loss of but
one destroyer and a number of small
landing craft. This was mag.
nificent achievement.

bottom OF an overturned landing
craft close to the shore.
OF these rescue craft, one was
commanded by q Canadian officer,
and In another 2 Canadian rating
and an English rating sacrificed
their lives to save these soldiers.
Two army cooperation squadrons
Of the RCAF attached to formations
OF the Canadian army overseas par
ticipated in the operation. Both
did gallant work and suffered losses.
Canadian fighter sQuadrons likewise
played brilliant part. Many Can
adian airmen served in Raj squad
rons engaged in the operations.
Troops Conduct Excellent.
Conduct OF the troops:
Throughout this operation the
conduct OF all ranks OF the Canadian
military forces engaged, and their
determination TO capture their OBJ
jectives at whatever cost, were be-
yond all praise.
Although they came under the
heaviest forms of artillery, mortar
and machine gun fire, and con-
fronted situations comparable to the
most dangerous tasks assigned to
troops in the last war, there was not
the slightest hesitation, and all
ranks evinced the keenest desire to
come to grips with the enemy.
Literally hundreds OF documents
relating to this hazardous operation
now have been examined. In not
one OF these is there the slightest
suggestion that so much as one man
of the Canadian army failed in his
duty.
Where all were brave, it is diffi-
cult and perhaps invidious to quote
individual cases of gallantry, but
two such instances are mentioned
here merely as examples of the
manner in which Canadian officers
and men maintained the traditions
of the Canadian Army and the
honor Of their country.
1t. Col. c. c. I. Merritt of the
South Saskatchewan Regiment act
ed with most distinguished gallantry
throughout the operation. Wher
his battalion was held up by very
hot fire at a bridge on which many
men had fallen, Col. Merritt walked
back and forth across the bridge
waving his helmet and calling: See
there is no danger here" He ther
led his men across and cleared the
commanding enemy positions on the
other side.
Organized Defense Position.
After many acts of bravery dur
ing the day, including leading de-
tachments against strongly defend
ed road blocks, personally disposing
! OF sniper and organizing and lead
ing parties for the destruction OF
enemy machine-gun posts which
were harassing his men, this most
gallant ofiicer was last seen collect
ing automatic weapons and organiz-
ing defensive position to cover the
withdrawal OF the last parties of his
unit from the beach.

Too Nasty

PALO ALTO, CALF, Dec. 2
-(P)-A Stanford football star
charged yesterday that Notre
Dame was guilty of dirty foot
BALI in its game with the In
dams at South Bend, Ind, Oct.
10.
The accusation was made by
Ed Stamm, star tackle and presi-
dent of the Stanford student
body, in connection with a re-
port that Stanford players were
petitioning for cancellation Of
the 1913 game with Notre Dame.
The report apparently proved
groundleSs. Both Stanford Off
Gals and players said there was
nothing to it.
"Notre Dame played dirty
football against us this season
and you can quote me as saying
So" Stamm said. 1T didn't
surprise me that Notre Dame,
according to reports, used the
same tactics against u. S. c."
Three Notre Dame and two
Southern California players
were ordered out of their game
last Saturday for unsportsman-
like conduct.
1.-THE fact is" Siam said, 1--WE
had warned u. S. c. what to ex-
pect, but there is no talk of
Stanford calling off next years
game with Notre Dame. We
figure the fellows here can take
care of themselves and dish 1t
out just as we'll as they can
take it,"

NEW YORK, Dec. 2 - up -
Whether freshmen football play
ers, given 1912 varsity status in
many sectors because of the
wars manpower demands, in
creased or decreased the scoring
still is open to question although
the season is virtually over.
The Associated Press twenty
first annual scoring survey, in
volving 1913 tea m scattered
throughout the country, shows
that only two sections showed a
gain in the average number of
points in a game compared with
similar figures of q year ago.
One Of the sectors was the
Midwest, where the Big Ten and
the Big Six Conferences did not
use the freshmen. The other was
the Rocky Mountain area, where
the frosh were welcomed.
The Southern and Eastern dis
tricts, where use of the fresh
men was common, showed q de-
cline as did the Far West and
Southwest which followed the
Midwest in not allowing the
freshmen to play.
However, the Midwest and
Rocky Mountain sector increas-
ed their scoring to such an ex-
tent that the entire country
showed q gain.
A year ago the teams averag-
ed 14.54 points q game, this sea-
son the 1913 schools collected a.
OBJ points in 1901 contests for
an average of 1904, the highest

Wings Given
Hot Reception
BY the Associated Press

Jack Adams brought his Ma
tional Hockey League leading
Detroit Red Wings to Boston last
night and the reception he re-
ceived was so hot that six min
utes before the game ended eight
of the Detroiters were under the
showers and hurrying to get out
of town
AS it was, the Detroiters were
defeated by a to 2 score and
the Bruins moved into a second
place tie with the c h C G o
Blackhawks.
With the game out of reach,
he Red Wings were hustled to
he dressing rooms so that the
squads departure could be
5peeded. The Wings were trying
20 catch a train.
Adams, coach Of the Red
Wings, could have sent his en-
tire team to the dressing room
at the end of the first period as
the Bruins registered four times
in the opening session and then
protected their lead the rest of
the way, Don Gallinger getting
the fifth counter in the second.
Buzz Boil opened and closed
the rousing first period by scor-
ing for the Bruins. Busher jack
son and Bill Shill also passed
Johnny Mowers in that fame.
Detroit couldn't find the COM
bination until 1855 of the Sec
ond when Harry Watson scored
on a pass from Sid Abel. Carl
Liscombe got No. 2 for the los
ers late in the last session.
It was the first appearance Of
the season for the Wings in Bos-
ton but in a previous meeting
at Detroit the Bruins were
BANKED, 3 to 0.
The Wings, with IS points,
are only a full game ahead of
Bruins and the Hawks. Boston
has moved into second place by
winning six, tieing one and los
ing one after dropping its first
four.
