Wives Tackle Rationing Mathematics
Bombs Rained Down
Commander, Who Dodeed Them in Coral Sea,
Says His Hair Literally Stood on End
BY ARTHUR JUNTUNEN

Imagine standing in a rain of
Jap bombs-all aimed at you
and no place to jump but the
exploding waters of the Pacific.
It's terrifying-and you can
take the word of Comdr. r. c..
Armstrong, who lodged bombs on
the deck of Me carrier Yorktown
when the Japs blasted her in the
Coral Sea.
"My hair literally stood on
end" the youthful veteran
grinned, "when 1 saw those
bombs coming for me. 1 de-
bated stepping left or stepping
right-but guess IL didn't
matter because my name just
wasn't on any of those bombs"
NAVAL CAREER MAN
Comdr. Armstrong, trim, mus
tached, 3S-year-old fighter who
will succeed Capt. Z. w. Litch at
Crosse lie. is naval career man
who never wanted to fight-until
Pearl Harbor.
A native of Rockford, ILL.,, and
a graduate of Annapolis. he went
through hell, high water and back
again since Dec. 7, 1871, but
would rather talk about the
bravery of his men than himself
As commander of naval bomber
squadron, he has directed attacks
on enemy bases at Tulagi, Sala-
maua, Lac, Midway and the Mar
shall and Gilbert islands-but he's
aching to get back again whenever
the Yanks decide TO blast Japan
from the sea.
THE only surprise the Japs
ever pulled he says, was Mt
Pearl Harbor. Since then the
surprises have all been on Hiro-
hito."
CAUGHT FOE FLAT-FOOTED
Comdr. Armstrong was in the
Marshall-Gilbert surprise" blast

caught flat-footed in a daring at
tack timed at the height of a
raging tropical storm.
At Salamaua and Lac, In New
Guinea, Yankee squadrons wiped
out 20 japanese ships and lost
none.
The real baptism of fire" how
ever, came in the Coral Sea, the
end of the Yorktown, with bombs
exploding everywhere, men dying
and ships sinking. Comdr. Arm

was in the thick of it helping
launch fighter planes with carrier
guns blazing and bomb falling.
THE Japs threw everything
they had on three carriers at us
all at one time" he relates.

that not single Jap plane re-
turned to its base"
TELLS OF HEROISM
Comdr. Armstrong likes to tell
of his shipmates' heroism.
One, a gunner. saw a bomb COM
ing for him but stuck to his gun
until he blasted the attacking dive
bomber, then neatly side-stepped
to allow the bomb to pass. The
bomb clipped the edge of the deck
and exploded harmlessly in the
water.
When ship was finally aband-

Month S Points
Squdndered by
Many on Beans
BY DOROTHY WILLIAMS

No matter how you count them,
they only total as points a month
per person.
Many Detroit householders were
realizing this lesson in arithmetic
today as the city and the nation
entered the second day of eating
under war ration book No. 2.
A survey of early buying dis
closed that for the most part
Detroiters are conserving their
point coupons, spending them cau-
tiously for the more commonplace
items.
DRIED BEANS FAVORED
Dried beans. famed in song and
story as major army fare, were
revealed as popular civilian dish
by the buyers who paid on the
line at Detroit grocery counters
for rationed foods.
Householders repeatedly forget
that dried beans, peas and lentils
are rationed, grocers report. Chill
sauce and ketchup are other items
which customers still don't realize
cost precious coupons.
Don't tell me soup beans ara
rationed," exclaimed one patron
IN the A & p Food Store branch
at 1921 Fourteenth.
Fred Verville. manager there,
also reported the cases of three
customers who expended a full
months coupon allowance for
dried beans.

IS FOR RAISINs

"One woman b o z h { four
pounds of raisins at cost OF 70
coupons Verville said. 1--WE
explained to her she was using
nearly two months allowance
for one item, but she took the
raisins anyhow"
In the same store one man went
through half a months blue ticket
allowance on 16 packages of dried
vegetable noodle soup and one
bottle of ketchup.
Teddy Webb, manager OF this
store, told of one customer who
buys there nearly every day. but
who sacrificed 96 points for the
equivalent in canned SOUP.
In this store, as in thousands Of
others throughout the city, cash.
iers dropped the tickets into spe-
cially designed coupon banks.
Another instance of a buyer TAX.
ing months allowance in dried
beans was recounted by Mrs. Shir.
ley KelSch. cashier in the Hol.
brook Market, 3401 Grand River.
Many persons think now they
can throw away their old ra-
ton books and buy as much cof-
fee and sugar as they want on
the new book" Mrs. Kelsch said.
MUST KEEP OLD BOOK
They don't realize they must
keep the old book for these
purchases and for shoes"
Mrs. Elsie Claxton, another
cashier in the same store, com.
planned that some of the custo-
mers believe they can use all their
ration tickets in one month.
One couple who cleared their
purchases over her counter in
vested the months allowance for
both of them in two cans of pine
apple, two cans of corn and q
large can of tomatoes.
IL told them they were using
up all their March tickets, but
they didn't seem to mind" she
said.
PUZZLER FOR SHOPPERS
Among the puzzlers for shop.
pers was also the sauerkraut sit

kraut packed in glass was avail

A woman old age pension re-

as she greeted Henry Page, man.

at $50 Grand River.
After turning over coupons for
three cans of soup, three small
cans OF tomatoes, two packages of
dehydrated soup and one package
of dried beans TO exhaust her
months supply, she commented:

All grocers reported soups,
fruit cocktails, dried prunes, to-
matoeS. corn and peas were the
items for which customers most
frequently gave up tickets. <
