switch over of the Army roofing
section when the Navy team started
for pay dirt, and (2) betrayal by
the lend-lease Army mule.
The third and fourth battalions of
midshipmen, who had been delegat-
ed to chesr for Army, performed ma
nificently in the pre-game roofing
although a couple of their songs did
sound a bit shrill. They actually
cheered louder for Army than the
first and second Observation-Disclosures
ly across the field-who were a bit
lethargic in whooping it up for I'M
derdog Navy.
Unfortunately, after the game got
under way, the delegated battalions
forgot their assignment in the wild
enthusiasm over the blue-helmeted
Middies, and joined the first and
second battalions in screaming for
Navy. It was a terrible blow to the
Army players, who thus found
themselves threatened on both
flanks by battalions in blue, yelling
for their blood.
meanwhile, al ATIIly HIuAe,
which had been borrowed from a
nearby Annapolis resident, also de-
clined to carry out his lend-lease
assignment. He, too, turned against
Army. During the first half, he
stood shame = facedly beyond the
north end-zone, and never even ut
tered a bray of encouragement. Be-
tween halves, he pitched an army
rider to the turf.

New York, Nov. %. (UP)-Army's
contribution of a lend-lease navy"
cheering section for Saturdays serv-
ice football classic at West Point
may be a gesture of polite reciproc-
ity, or it may be an anti-navy plot.

crossed fingers, tongues in cheeks,
and wry faces, but they'll go bound

Since transportation restrictions
prevent the regiment of Annapolis

of reciprocity, because in the last
years classic at Annapolis, Navy
provided lend-lease Army" rah-

But, there may be more in this
gesture than meets the eye. The
gracious Army officers doubtless re-
call-with camouflaged grimness-
the dire catastrophe that occurred
at Thompson Stadium, Annapolis,
last Nov. %.
On that dismal day, an Army
team that was favored at 81, took
the field-prancing confidently-in-
spired by Army cheers from Navy
throats-and played on to a OLA
defeat, one of the seasons major
upsets.
Only a few genuine army folks
were in the small crowd of 10000
who witnessed the debacle. But
those felt Army folks were convinc-
ed that the pseudo-Army roofing
section had double1crossed the cadet
team by singing some of the robust
soldier sounds in falsetto voices.
Those flights to the falsetto may
have had some bearing on the out
come; but impartial observers re-
ported that the actual causes of
the Army rout were: Cd the inno-

New York, Nov. 22-(UP)-The
Army and the Navy, stocked with
dead-game fighting men in every
sultry and frigid cline. turn their
football warriors out to battle at
West Point next Saturday in the
climax to a wartime season that
generally exceeded expectations of
even the optimistic.
Whatever they are-In fox holes
or on the high seas, in lonely Pacific
outposts or in submarines down in
the ocean-soldiers and sailors
along with the generals and admir-
ais will be awaiting the outcome of
that session on the football field.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower in
North Africa, Lieut.. Gen. Joseph
Stilwell in China and Admiral F.
Halsey, commanding the South Pa
cific fleet, are big league fighting
men who once played with the Army
or Navy elevens. Stillwell spanked
Army to victories over Navy in 1902
and 1908 as halfback and Halsey was
fullback on the losing 1903 Navy
team. Gen. Douglas Macarthur IN
Australia was squad manager of the
1902 Army team. In addition hun
dreds of other officers in both
branches are veterans of the classic.
Navy is a slight favorite because
of more impressive record, but only
a purveyor of piffle could sell the
idea there Is ever an underdog in
this game. The oddsmakers VINO
tried it last year very nearly suf-
fered bankruptcy. Navy, step-child
in the betting, won by two touch
downs.
The visiting midshipmen will be
represented by tongue in cheek"
cheering section from Army, because
the 10-mile restriction on seats ap-
plies even to the guest team.

measure of football greatness pre-

provides the annual classic of the

Trucking Industry
 Facing Supervision
Connecticut Truckers Show Lack of Cooperation;
 Government May Take Over Routing, DispatChing

Routing and dispatching of mo- tor truck trafflc may be taken over by the government unless there IS greater voluntary cooperation with the present Office of Defense Trans- portation program for the inter change of information among car. riers as Q means Of reducing empty mileage.
 The Connecticut trucking indus try has been slow in taking steps to complete organization of such conservation measures, 1t was an- nounced at both the Hartford and New Haven district ofnces today. The only joint information offices set up in this state is that being op. erated by movers of household fur- nishines, located at New Haven.
 Attention was called to a state- ment by Jack Garrett Scott, general counsel of ODT, in which he put squarely. Up to the carriers the re- sponsibility for accomplishing the
 mileage sayings necessary to pull the motor truck transportation through the war emergency. warn ing that unless many competitive practices within the industry are discontinued, further mandatory action may be necessary.
 "As I see it." said MT. Scott, "the field which now holds the greatest hope for additional mileage savings is that of joint action between car- riers. The invitation to explore this field was contained in the com mon carrier order, ODT3, and the contract and private carrier order

ing from the Japanese soldiers.
 Bishop Wade was taken prisoner and held about six weeks. During an attack by American planes, he escaped. Admiral Halsey was in- formed by the Australian radio op- orator and the daring rescue was planned in December.
 Directed by radio, a submarine from Halsey's command maneuvered through reefs and around Japanese ships, arriving off Bougainville on New Years Eve. Early Jan. l, the party was taken aboard. ,.
 Bishop Wade declined to leave with the others, mostly Australians and New zealanders.
 A member of the Marist Order oi Missionaries, Bishop Wade served in the Solomons for 18 years. As he pledged himself, he was taken pri- soner.
 If the Japanese come" he said before the invasion, "11l meet them in my bishop paraphernalia."
 He is about 40 years old and small of stature, Archbishop Nifty said FJe was made bishop after 12 years service in the Solomons, where he converted thousands of native Me. lanasians to christianity. He attend ed the Marist Seminary in Wash ington, D. O. before entering mis- sionary work.
 The four nuns who told the story of the escape to Archbishop Nifty were the only Americans in the pa:- ty. They arrived in San Francisco early this week.
 The nuns had been on the island since September, 1940, ana plar to return when the war Is over.
 They walked eight hours through deisc jungle uncergrow.h to tho rendezvous with the, submarine. Three of the party were children, and 17 were women, IA of whom were nuns. The long white gowns of the nuns were torn as they tramped through thorny vines.
 When they reached the beach they saw the flash of light from the submarine that was the signal that liberators had arrived. z
 "We boarded two small boats, made our way to the submarine and the months of suspense were over, :" Sister Superior Isabelle said.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-02-03

ODT 17, together with the local car- Tier order ODT 6. have been greatly disappointed at the small number of such plans which the property carriers of the country have submitted.
 Perhaps joint action appears to be something new and mysterious which carriers are loathe to ex- plore. Perhaps non . action grows out of the beginnings of the motor carrier industry, in which every in- dividual fought his own way up, alone against the world, and ac- quired an enormous fund of sus- picion and distrust for all of his competitors of every class. Unless this inborn suspicion and distrust is forgotten, and plans for joint action quickly entered into wherever they will accomplish conservation and Elimination of waste, all of you may fall into a quagmire from which nothing can extricate you.
 Another point concerns the es- tahlishment and use of Joint In- formation Offices. This plan was suggested by general order ODT IS for the purpose of helping carriers of all classes to comply with the requirements of other orders. But not enough of these offices have been established, and those that have, have been I1oticeably by passed and ignored. There has not been anywhere near complete regis tration of empty equipment and surplus traffic. There has been too much haggling about divisions of revenues. There has been too great use of the corner filling station and individual solicitation and shopping around.
 ''When vehicles have been leased they have not been promptly loaded and unloaded and returned to the owner. These. things cannot and must not continue. If they do, I think you should be warned that the Office of Defense Transporta- ton may be forced to establish of- Aces of its own and take over the matter not only of exchanging ir- formation, but of routing and dis patching traffic. We have been urg- ed to do this many times, but have backed away from 1t, hoping and confidently believing that the car- riers could do a better job them selves. Our faith in this hope is wavering, and what will happen depends upon the carriers them selves"
 The speaker also warned as against well recognized obligations and duties of carriers" the custom of some carriers with rather more traffic than they can haul, to choose only the most profitable shipments If rates are inequitable, the various regulatory bodies may be appealed to, he pointed out, at the same time warning that such customs are dangerous to the freedom of the carriers.
