Sill Going Strong
 Al 40; HubbeII Says
 He Never FeIi Belier
By CHIP ROYAL AP Features Sports Writer

NEW YORK. .-"The greatest pit cher that ever lived" according to New York Giants catcher Gus Mancuso, is still winning them at 40 years of age.
 He is the one and only King Carl Hubbel, the pride of Meeker, Okla, who started throwing that screw ball away back in 1923 as mem Der of the Cushing, Okla, State League mound staff.
 The records say that old Long Pants has won 251 games while losing l50. up to June 18th. They don't tell about all those heart breakers he dropped while his teammates fiddled with the bat
 There is no mention either of the fact that his left arm is abnormally twisted from throwing that screw ball, that he doesn't know the of the word alibi, that he has never squawked about decisions and never boasted about victories.

MUSSOLINTS AFRICAN
empire is melting away under
the sledge-hammer blows Of
General Montgomery British
Eighth Army. This British
force has outblitzkrieged the
originators of the blitzkrieg.
The greatest difficulty in all
war is supply. The motorized
and mechanical war of speed
has increased that difficulty a
thousand-fold. The British
Eighth Army's advance, since
II struck Marshal RommcTs
elite Afrika KorpS AZ FL Ala
mein has been a monument 20
the superbly efficient supply
Of the war OF speed under the
most difficult of all conditions
namely. desert warfare.
The name Tripoli, and the
pirates Of the Barbary Coast,
were written ndehbly on
American history many years
ago. Our Stephen Decatur
sailed boldly into that port
and properly chsstised those
pirates who were intruding on
the freedom Of the seas.
But the British today are
chastising a different kind Of
pirate. The pirate Mussolini,
who, in June. 1910, when he
thought the Germans had won
the war, rode in and stabbed
PROSTATE France in the back.
thinking that in so doing he
was completely safe.
IT Is AN AMAZINGLY
strange thing in this world
that just retribution unfail-
ingly follows every human act.
1t may be years in catching
up with he who committed the
crime. But today the swash-
buckling, saber-rattling Fas-
cist Of all Italy, is devoutly
wishing he had never given
allegiance to the banners Of
the arch demon Hitler in this
so-called second world war.
Mussolini has been COM
pletely debunked by his own
words and the actions Of the
armed forces Of Italy.
In this war no offensive
action has equalled the per-
Torrance Of Gen. the Hon. Sir
Harold r. L. G.. Alexander,
the British commander Of the
Middle East. and his able sub
ordinate, leader of the British
Eighth Army, Lieut.. Gen.
Bernard Law Montgomery.
The great Nazi successes in
Western Europe were due as
much to lack of proper oe-
Tense as they were TO efficient
attack.
BUT TODAY, the secrets
Of mechanical war are known
TO all combatants on both
sides.
The correct method of at
tack is known.
The correct method of de.

Above all, the Germans
should be super in the meth

FLYNN DIDN'T KNOW

He fatty denied that Flynn
knew anything about using city
paving blocks and city workmen
TO pave a parking place on Flynn's
Lake Mahopac farm, 40 miles
north of the Bronx.
Moran explained that Fred Den
nerleine, a city foreman, was in
charge of the paving job. He was
under instruction to submit bills
10 Mrs. Wilhelmina Haas, en-
ployed by Flynn to take charge of
landscaping at the farm.
A bill for services of workmen
was submitted TO Mrs. Haas, but
she mislaid it along with the bill
from a private trucking firm for
hauling the blocks.
This was in November. 1941. He
said he told Dennerleine to submit
another bill.
