on his second and third string
squads against BraWley. This years
new rule prohibiting any student
from playing in more than six
games makes it necessary for An
derson TO save most of his entire
first team for Ell Centro's big game
of the season With CaleXico on
Thanksgiving Day.
Ell Centro's first team defeated
the Wildcats 30, in the first meet
ing between the schools.
The BraWley footballers have i'm
proved considerably since being un-
der the tutelage of their new coach,
Prof. H. N. Hoskins. In last weeks
game with the Holtville Vikings,
BraWley fell by the margin of one
point. BraWley is finishing one of
its worst football seasons, having
been handicapped from the start
by having only one veteran from
last year.
VIKINGS PLAY
In the other local game being
played Fridag night, the Holtville
Vikings will try to end their season
in a blaze of glory against the
slightly weaker Calipatria Hornets
at Holtlille.
Coach John Madden has promised
to give his Vikings free rein in
their last encounter and q wide
open game is expected with lots of
passing, lateralling and trick plays.
Local fans will have their last
opportunity Friday night to see
Loree Kaiser, probably the lightest
guard in the valley. Loree weighs
only l23 pounds and has been play

GALbRAITH OUT
AS OPA DEPUTY
Resignation May Quiet
Criticism; Called ely
in Ointment"
BY ALTON b. PARKER
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent


Washington, June l. - CUP -
Members Of Congrss believed today
that the resignation Of J. K. Gal
oraith as deputy administrator OF
the Office of Price Administration
would quiet criticism Of OPA and
perhaps improve relations between
the OPA and business.
Chairman Wright Patman, Demo
crat. Texas, of the house small bus
tneSs committee, which has been one
Of OPA'S most vociferous critics,
summed up the views Of many con-
greSsmen when he said: 1T GER
tainly won't hurt OPA to have him
resign. There is a general feeling
that he has been OPAs fly in the
ointment and I am sure his action
will be constructive rather than
damaging"
Price Administrator Prentiss M
Brown, in announcing Galbraith's
resignation last night, advanced no
reason for the sudden move. 1t has
been apparent for some time, how
ever, that either Galbraith or Lou
Maxon, Detroit advertising execu-
tiv and head of OPA's information
section, would have to step out.
They disagreed over such basic
issues as the number and type of
regulations that should be imposed
in price fixing. Maxon repeatedly
vas offered the job of general man.
ager OF OPA by Brown, and he
made Galbraith's removal one OF
the conditions of acceptance.
Brown told press conference
last week that he had decided to
defer a decision on a general man
ager until mid-June - statement
which led Galbraith's friends to be-
ueve he had won the first round.
The brief formal announcement Of
Galbraith's resignation said Brown
emphasized that any personnel
changes at this time in no way
affect the basic OPA policy to hold
the line on prices in accord with
the Presidents recent executive
order"
Galbraith, former assistant pro-
fessor OF economics at Princeton
University, said he had nothing to
say" other than my future plans
are in doubt"
Several officials who had dis
agreed with Galbraith's policies re-

INJURED SOLDIER
TELLS SAD STORY
Nazi BOmbers Showed No
Mercy for Hospitals Says
.A4 Army Private
BY ANNE THOMAS

&NOrt DeVenS, Mass, June 1.-CUP)
Dive bombing Nazi Stukas showed
no mercy for first-aid stations, hos
pitfalls or hospital trains even though
these were plainly marked. a wound
ed American soldier said today In
describing his adventures on North
African battlefields.
He was Pvt. Franklin Ledbetter
OF Statesville, N. c., and New York
City, driver of a half-track in the
LIST Armored Division and one Of
three wounded doughboys inter-
viewed at Lowell General Hospital
here. Ledbetter, who landed with
the first Allied wave at st. Loud, de-
scribed how enemy bombers ma
chine-gunned him as he lay on
stretcher on the battlefield and how
dive bombing interrupted medical
p treatment for three hours.
Ledbetter's company had been sent
TO support British infantry headed
- for Mateur when 1t ran into mortar
and 83 nm gun fire on both tanks
and the front. They were ordered to
the rear to reorganize and were
waiting near railroad when the
Give DOmDeTS came.
IAN enemy barrage was laid down
by dive bombers," he related my
tank was hit just as we were going
TO drop back because the fighting
was too hot. Continuous waves of
three to five dive bombers kept conf
ing over and about wiped out three
companies of infantry tanks"
THE first two bombs landed a
few feet from my tank" he went on.
IT started over the side. but the
third bomb made direct hit and
got me on the legs. The gasoline In
the tank exploded and thousands of
rounds Of ammunition went up"
With his legs shattered, he
crawled away from the tank. Two
soldiers dragged him near the rail-
road embankment and administered
first aid.
1.-THE dive bombing kept up. And
as lay on the Stretcher, a Stuka
put three machine gun bullets In
my left leg" Ledbetter said.
While Ledbetter was in the Brit
ish first-aid clearing station at
Bone, it was bombed and patients
spent two days in a garage for safe
ty. Later, a French hospital train
took three days and nights to carry
him and other patients $50 miles to
Algiers after enemy bomberS blew
up the tracks.
The other wounded men inter
viewed were Capt. James P. May

Ky.
Mayshark commanded 16 tanks In
the campaign of Medjez Ell Bah and
his tank was shot from under him
twice.
Sgt. Shortridge was a member Of
a bombing group which reached
Africa Nov. Is and which was cred
tied with destroying 10 enemy planes
in a raid on an enemy field depot.
He was on four missions to Gabes,
Sfaz, Sousse and Tunis before he
was wounded Dec. Q.
