It is not to be doubted that Gen

Notice Is Served On Germans
That Allied Assault Is Coming

Once the signal to attack from
the west is given, the primary
business of the massive Allied air
force gathered in England will be
tactical rather than strategic. Its
mission in cooperation with t h e
Navy will be to get the troops
ashore on the Continent with the
least possible losses, and then to
furnish close support for the ad-
vance beyond range of naval gun.
Up to that time the main mis-
sion of Allied air forces in Britain
will remain strategic rather than
tactical. The steady night-and-day
blasting at German war industry
and communication faiilities with
be maintained and expanded. AT
some moment, however, that is apt
to change into an overwhelming
concentrated air attack upon the
areas selected as inbasion beach
heads, leaving long-range strate-
gil bombing over Germany large
ly to the Allied air command in
the south.

mas weekend. The Paris radio as
serted that the German coastal de-
tense system in France would make
any invasion very costly"
The Germans occupied Sark and
other Channel islands at the end of
June, 1910. The islands, which lie
from Is to 80 miles from the west
coast of the Cherbourg peninsula,
are strategically valuable stepping
stones for an Allied invasion of the
French coast.
From their first class fighter
bases planes could give tactical
support 10 Allied landings.
Sark, widest anG most p1ctur-
esque of the islands, is six miles
from Guernsey. 1t is three mld0

have deported to Germany all
male civilians between 16 and 70
who were not natives of the is

raid on the island on Oct. 3 last
year. This attack ard the Dieppe
raid had sequel in the German
order for Stacking British prison
ers.
The Germans commended prison
ers taken by the British were
shackled in violation of the inter-
national conventions. The charge
was denied by the British and led
to retallatory manacling of the Ma

by the hob-nails. But other
wise we lined up just as we
stood retreat.
The boys played pretty vicious
football, possibly in the hope of
being hospitalized and thus escape
the endless, dreary, wet days,
each one a ditto for another, as
we waited orders that would take
us back home.

Zeke did such a fine job of pro-
noting baseball and softball last
summer that, if we recall correct
ly, he was given some kind of a
certificate of merit, and with his
promotonal ability it seems logi-
cal that the two teams he puts on
the field next Saturday will have
everything from sand cleats to
headgears in the way of equip
ment.
It isn't hard to visualize Zeke
bustling around taking care of
everything. Zeke always was a
hustler, although some of his man.
ayers thought he hustled at the
wrong times, waiting until ball
had scooted by him at first base
to hustle over to the pitcher and
assure him everything was under
control as he. Zeke Bonura, per-
sonally would take care of the op-
position.
He's a good-natured, personable
gent and always was popular with
teammates and opposing players,
and we have an idea that his Ar
my duties have developed his ex-
ecutive ability so that he won t
have any trouble lining up a job
when he gets back. His major
league days apparently were end
ed before he went into the service,
and it's doubtful if he'd want to
go back to baseball as a minor
Lacquer.
Getting back to his Arab Bowl
game, we don't doubt that there
will be some pretty rugged and
capable performers involved. The
teams may not function zoo
smoothly, as they don't get two
or three hours day for practice,
but give your American boy a
football and he knows what to do
with it.
We wouldn't wonder if Zeke,
with his bubbling vitality, got in
there himself. He was better than
green hand at the game in his
school days.
