Prospect of Visit With Son,
Boise Hero, Delights Mother
Mrs. w. G. Butler
Expects Officer
Over Week End

Although Mrs. william Clayton
Butler, ST., 3917 Kansas avenue
NV, was gratified to hear her son
received the Navy Cross for his hero
ism aboard the cruiser Boise, she
was even happier today over the
prospect OF his coming home over
the week end.
Mrs. Butler said her son, 1t.
Comdr. William Clayton Butler, jr.,
called her last night from Phila-
delphia.
Hes very careful about what he
says over the telephone" she re-
marked. "He didn't say anything
about what he had done. But the
important thing to me was that he
was safe and was coming home
to see U.S."
Comdr. Butler, who Is IS, is a
graduate of Central High School,
where he was captain of the cadet
corps. After one year at George
Washington University, he entered

had persistently attacked these
landing parties. But air attack
alone did not stop them. The
task group, of which the Boise
was a member, was ordered to
do the job. 1t did.
On October II the Boise and
her sister ships had been pa
tiently waiting outside the range
of enemy air reconnaissance.
The trap was set and on that
day the game was discovered ap-
preaching. United States planes
spotted an enemy task force COM
posed of cruisers and destroyers
steaming at high speed toward
Guadalcanal. The first step in
springing the trap was when the
United States task group made
all speed to intercept.
Six Ships Sighted.
That evening the Boise was in
a column of cruisers with de-
stroyer screen, knitting along at
Is knots. The sea was smooth,
with long swells running. The
night was dark. The enemy was
somewhere ahead.
The Boise made out six enemy
ships to starboard-three APP
peared to be large, three smaller.
Capt. Moran laid main batteries
on the leading heavy ship, his
anti-aircraft batteries on a small
er one, and waited. Then he gave
the order to fire.
In a matter OF seconds the
first target was lit up-afire
amidship. BY the light of the
blaze she was tentatively identi-
fed as a heavy cruiser Of the
Natl class. The Bosses gun hit
her again and again for 4 min
utes and she sank, going down
by the bows with her screws still
turning.

BY the Associated Press,

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 20.-Given
up for lost In a dramatic night bat
tie off the Solomon Islands a month
ago, the American light cruiser
Boise steamed triumphantly into
Philadelphia late yesterday, and to-
day the 4th Naval District revealed
stories of individual heroism which
won the "one-ship fleet" hallowed
place in American naval history.
Outnumbered and outgunned, the
Boise was chiefly instrumental in
sinking six japanese warships in q
minutes Of point-blank battle dur
ing the night OF October 1l-12 after
intercepting an enemy force moving
toward Guadalcanal. During hel
extraordinary achievement she was
ripped, battered and enveloped in
mast-high flames. Other craft in
the United States cruiser destroyer
pack left her behind as fatally
stricken.

But two hours later she steamed
out Of the darkness and took hel
accustomed place in the column.
Some of the secrets of her epit
victory were revealed today wher
the Navy announced that 10 officer.
and men, four of them killed, hae
received decorations during her tril
home.

iser Boise Lnps In After Sinking Six Ships Fierce Battle

sy the Associated Press.
FOLLOWING is the tert OF the
NaDy's account yesterday OF the
part played BY the light cruiser
Boise IN the battle OF the Solo,
mons:
The q. S. S. Boise, light cruiser,
came home from the Solomons
today, bringing with her the scars
of enemy shells and the fighting
record of a veritable "one- ship
fleet"
Triumphant survivor of slug
ging match with six Japanese
warships of Guadalcanal, the
Boise docked at Philadelphia
Navy Yard with Capt. E. j.
mike Moran, her skipper, on the
bridge and Admiral Ernest J.
King, commander-in-chief of the
United States Fleet, waiting to
extended greetings.
Back from the battle zones of
the east longitude, the Boise was
battered by gunfire, scorched by
flames, and well-night saturated
from the seas that poured
through her wounds.
Six Warships Sunk.
But the Boise will be repaired
and, in time, will steam off to war
again, whereas two heavy Jap
cruisers, one light cruiser and
three destroyers, which faced her
swinging guns, never will.
The action took place off Cape
Esperance in the Solomon
Islands on the night of October
11-l2. In a swift sequence of
deadly close-range fighting the
Boise fired more than 1000
rounds of five and six-inch shells.
Aided by her sister ships, she
participated in the sinking of the
above six Jap ships. (Navy De-
partment Communique No. 149,
in which preliminary details of
the above action were reported,
listed the Jap losses as one heavy
cruiser, four destroyers and a
transport.)
Outnumbered and outgunned
as she bore the brunt of the fight
ing, the Boise took brutal punish
ment from the eight-inch arma-
ment of the enemy cruisers. She
received hits from no less than
II "straddles." One eight-inch
shell pierced her hull line nine
feet below the waterline. Mast
high flames enveloped her. Her
sister ships gave her up for lost
and continual the battle course
and then, two hours later, out
of the darkness came the Boise
steaming at 20 knots to rejoin the
force and resume her accustomed
station in the column!
Each Performs Duty.
Capt. Moran. and his crew had
flooded her exploded magazine,
put out her fires, shored up her
wavering bulkheads and plugged
up her shell holes with bedding.
The months of bringing up"
that he had given his officers
and men had shown results. In
the q minutes of nerve-tearing
battle, aggravated by the normal
confusions of night action, no
man in the ship failed his as
signed duties.
OF "the boys" as he called
them, Capt. Moran had this to
say:
Except as the direct result of
enemy hits, the ships organiza-
ton functioned smoothly, effec-
lively and without break
