Missing Bomber Hunted
In Colorado Mountains
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TUCSON, Ariz., Sept. 14.-Search
for an Army bomber, missing since
Thursday night with eight officers
and two enlisted men, was concen-
trated today in the mountains OF
Southern Colorado.
Although systematic search was
underway all along the air route
between here and Omaha, Nebr., the
Davis -Monthan Field Public Rela-
tions Office said the "best bet" was
a report received from w. w. Cox,
tourist camp operator at Stonewall,
Colo.
Mr.. Cox said he heard a plane,
apparently having engine trouble, in
that mountain area about 2 am.
Friday.
Planes from Lowry Field, Denver,
flew over the area today, while
sheriff's deputies made a ground
search.
Names of the men aboard the
bomber will not be released until
the plane is found or all hope aban-
doned, the Army said.

Germans Reported
Making Preparations
For Winter Line
Naming Of Three Generals
To Garry Out Plans
Announced by Nozis

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, Sept. 14.-The Germans |
we're reported today to be making
intense preparations for strongly
fortified winter line In Russia even
while the terrific frontal assault on
Stalingrad is going on. Behind this
line, apparently Adolf Hitler hopes
to regroup, rest and re-equip his
badly mauled forces.
First disclosure of Hitler's winter
plans, which he promised in his
Reichstag address last April, was
the Axis announcement of the ap-
pointment of Gems. Franz Halder,
Jacob and Wietersheim to estab-
lish an impregnable line and clothe
Axis troops against the ravages OF
the Russian winter.
In London it was believed that
these preparations were the imper-
ative result of heavy casualties and
material losses in Field Marshal
Fedor Won Books frontal attack on
Stalingrad, which the Nazi COM
mand earlier had hoped to avoid by
its more familiar swift f1anking
movements.
The decision to sacrifice valuable
shock troops before Stalingrad, Lon
don military quarters said, had been
forced on the Nazis by the Red
Armys retention of a Don bridge
head in the Kletskaya area which
had robbed Marshal Won Book of
freedom of movement.
The three generals reported chosen
to prepare for the Nazi winter cam
paign in Russia are considered
Hitler's top men for just such job.
Gen. Halder, considered one OF
the ablest generals in Germany, will
direct military requirements, accord
ing to word reaching London. Gen.
Jacob, who helped build the West
Wall, Is to be entrusted with fortifi-
cations, and Gen. Wietersheim will
direct supply.
Other winter line preparations re-
ported from Axis and other sources
include:
Construction Of heavy concrete
fortifications at strategic points be-
hind the present front.
Large-scale production of heaters
and protective equipment for all
mobile equipment.
Orders for several hundred new
locomotives.
Feverish construction of barracks
in many areas Of Occupied Russia.

of Madagascar, and information

Toronto Bettors
Sill Give ODDS
On Home Club
BY LEWIS III. WALTER

TORONTO. April THE team
Toronto calls the hoodlums-but
which the hockey world calls the
Detroit Red Wings-will again
gamble everything on the attack
tonight in an attempt to. make 1t
two straight over the Toronto
Maple Leafs in the fight for the
Stanley Cup.
"We're going In to repeat
we're going to try and pen them
up again and pour 1t on" said
Manager Jack Adams today.
Its the way we can beat these
Leafs, and well do It."
The Wings are still underdogs In
the betting because the game is on
Torontos home ice. The Maple
Leaf Gardens will be packed with
almost $4,000 fans, most of them
wild Toronto rooters. But the
Wings think they can repeat their
80 victory of Saturday. If they
do they'll have a huge edge when
they return for the Thursday and
Sunday games in Detroit. They
haven't lost in II games at home.
NOT COCKY
Not the least cocky after their
victory in the opener, the hard
hitting Red Wings are ready to
move into Toronto ice at the start.
They'll try to batter down the
Toronto puck carriers with body
checks and keep the extremely
fast skaters like Syl Apps. Pete
Langelle, Gordon Drillon and Nick
Metz from breaking away to the
Detroit net.
One of the most blistering
games of the series is expected az
the mighty Leafs shoot for a come
back. They'll try to match the
Wings check for check and shot
for shot.
And while the Leafs are shoot.
ing, Don Crosse. the skinny guy
from the Canadian 500. will lead
the Red Wing snipers into action.
Crosse, who bagged two goals in
the opener, is cunning for two
Stanley Cup records. With six
goals and three assists for nine
