The Box Office Champions

We see where Messrs. Bud Abbot and Lou Co.'S
telo have been voted the nations best box-ofice at
traction by the theatre owners of the country.
This seems to establish the popularity of the
comedians with the public. It also goes to show just
how far away judgment is from that of the pub
lie.
Anyhow in a free country, the public pays its
money and it makes its choice. incidentally, the CO.
medans have given more than $40 performances in
400 Army camps and have been responsible for the
sale of an enormous amount of bonds.
They deserve the good hand that they get from
the public if cannot agree with the publics
choice.

Americans
Here are two pictures of Americanism:

Here are two pictures of Americansm:
Over Here: Disgruntled citizens complaining of
gasoline ratonng and criticising every regulation
issued by the government even if it is designed to
assure adequate supplies for fighting men,
Over There: Soldiers and sailors dying daily to
protect the homes of all Americans, including the
grumblers.
It is not within the range for every American to
be ION the 'front.' but it possible for every citizen to
be a loyal American, at home This loyalty is
not matter of saluting the flag or prasing the
brave heroes" it is cooperation in the mighty war
effort.

The result is that McNutt has been
left to struggle with a problem for

 Thus Admral William F. Hal seys' command completed the New Georgia campaign, which was started thirteen weeks ago. Seizure of Kolombangara gave the United States forces domina- ton of the entire southern cen tral Solomon Islands.
 The capture of the Villa air. field gives the Allies a strategi- cally located base from which to carry the offensive to Bougain- vile and even Rabaul.
 Japanese positions on Wake Is- land were smashed heavily and more than 61 enemy planes were destroyed in the two-day attack by carrier-based bombers and fighters and a terrific barrage laid down by the big guns of the naval vessels in the combat.
 During Wakes three attacks Admiral Chester w. Nimitz re- ported that more than 30 Japanese planes were destroyed in the air, and i've lost B in combat.
 Nimitz announced that in spite of enemy air resistance and Wake defenses, the barracks ships and airfields were laid in ruins with total of 320 tons of bombs. The attack was carried on jointly by aircraft-carrier task force, and land Ibased Liberator bombers, Commander Nimitz said.
 Wakes garrison was also bom- barded by warships of Admiral Montgomery's force. Casualties to enemy personnel was not men, toned, but I've saw considerable number of dead Japs scattered about the landscape" said Con- rnander John T. Hayward.

AMERICAN FORCES IN ITALY ADVANCE IN DEEP ITALIAN MUD

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS, Algiers Oct. 11-(AP) American forces in Italy were plodding forward to- day on loot, through deep Italian mud, which made motor transport almost entirely useless.
 Advancing against stiffening resistance of the Ger man army, Clark's American Fifth Army captured Pontllandolfo, 12 miles north of Benevento in fur ther tankng move against the German front north of the Voturno river
 Allied headquarters stated that similarly heavy go- Ing was encountered by the British Eighth Army un- der the command of General Montgomery on the Adrlatlc front where gains of two three miles were being checked up against the enemy, who is being put under constant pressure.
 Along the swollen Volturno river where the Fifth Army is established along A mile front official re- ports indicated that patrols already skirmishing the Germans along the north bank of the stream but that Clarks forces were mainly engaged in consoda- tion of their positions laborously bringing up guns and ammunition through the mud to the crossing at the yeiturno river, 20 miles north of Naples.7

"C-EYE' VIEW
 OF NOME
By CORP. w. D. STARNES

It seems that the recent flick ering of the northern lights has really started the fellows to thinking in earnest about winter. It won't be long now before those sights which appeared SO strange to us upon our fidst con- tact with them, begin to make their appearance once again. And strange it was indeed; dog teams running rampant up and down the streets, some loaded to the hilt with cargo and headed into the unknown kids bum dled in furs and having the time of their life chasing each other with sleds and babies being pushed up and down the streets in baby buggies with runners in- stead of wheels These and many other things did something or other to ones trend of thought They made us all bug-eyed at first and then we began to take them as matter of course. It was when this happened that we knew we were becoming accli- mated.
 Winter sports are now creeping into our minds. This year we shall profit by the experiences gained during the last. Those things which we wondered about before are now imbedded as knowledge and this knowledge we shall exploit to it's utmost. It is not an uncommon sight to see the skis coming out of stor- age an industrious soldier working intently on his skis with wax in preparation for some real winter fun. Plans are also be- ing made for the promotion of the Winter Carnival in con- junction with the Arctic Club again this year. The event was a huge success last year and this year it should be even better. All in all it should be a winter well worth looking forward to =. and we are all ready and waiting.

TANKS WIN SERIES
NAX PLANE LOSSES j MOUNT LAST 3 DAYS

LONDON, Oct. 11.-(AP)- Boosting Nazi plane losses to more than 300 in three days, British based A,eriean flying fortresses escorted by United States Thur derbofts, downed 102 enemy planes yesterday as the huge bonbers tore through stubborn defenses to blast important Ger man transportation centers of Muenster and Coesfeld.
 Communities report that 30 bonbers and TWO fighters were lost in the operations.
 American formations also hit enemy air fields near Enschede. Solland, and a blazing climax over the weekend was the re- suit of Allied aerial activity which riddled German fighter strength.
 While the size of the attacking American formations was not of officially disclosed there Is reason to believe that the number ap- preached very near the record in any one operation.
 Concentrations of 400 oombers hammered the German targets each of the two preceding days. tAsneriesn raids reached a new high in strength and numbers Friday who fsur-motored forts and Liberators bombed the Stuka factory at Bremen and the subma rine shipbuilding yards at Vege- sack nearby.
 It. General Baker, commander of the Eighth Air Force, disclos- ed that the attacking force, both Friday and Saturday, totalled 400 bombers. He said that these and other raids which follow are in preparation for Allied invasion of ermany "across the English Channel and the North Sea"

William H. Ullrich has begun training as a cadet in the Army Air Forces Training Command School at Yale University at New Haven, Connecticut. His train ing at that point is aimed to pre- pare him for the dutes of tech nical officer, and upon the suc- cessful completion of the course he will be commissioned second lieutenant.

Part of his time will be spent in the field under simulated battle conditions.
 After being commissioned, he will be placed in charge of a crew of enlisted men specialists at flying fields in the United States or overseas where he will maintain the armament of both fighter and bomber aircraft later taken aloft by flying crews.

CARDS LOSE ON SUNDAY, ALSO

ST. LOUIS. Oct. 10.-(APl-- The fourth game of the World Series was played at St. Louis Sunday with southpaw Russo as the surprise star for the Tanks, Only once during the contest was he in serious trouble. That in the seventh inning when his support fell to pieces, allowing the Casds to score their only run on two errors and double by Danny Litwhiler, to tie the score, sinca the Tanks had counted in the fourth frame on Joe Gordon's double and a single by Bill Dickey.
 Russo broke up the tie by lead- ing off in the eighth with a dou- ble going to third on a sacrifice by Tuck Steinback, and scoring on Frank Crosetti's fly to deep center.
 The seventh pebble nearly cost the Tanks the game. With two away, Crosetti dropped Ray San- der's pop-up behind third, then LitWhiler doubled and Marty Marion purposely walked Bill Johnson. Frank Demaree pinch> hitted for Max Lanier and boot ed an easy roller to third. Lou Klein rolled into force play to put out the fire which should have meant two more runs for the Cards.
 The game was played to a ca. pacity crowd of 36,l9e fans.
