In the contest of infantry and
armor, it is notable that British

til British and New Zealand infan-

weeks. the German tanks in Russia
now dare operate only with an es-
cort Of their own infantry, at few
miles an hour. They use their
speed only to skedaddle when enc
my infantry approaches.
1t appears that tanks will be used
no longer as the spearhead, the
main reliance of a major attack,
but either as an auxiliary, accom-
paying attacking infantry-where
they started in 1916-or as cavalry,
on isolated, dashing raids. They
dare not raid very deeply, either,
lest they be cut off and use up all
their gas trying to escape.
This change may well have eff
fects upon United Nations warfare
that will greatly influence the out
come of the war. Today we have
an advantage, thanks to better an
ti-tank weapons, and to infantry
trained in their use. But the enemy
already has captured samples of the
weapons and probably is beginning
production and training troops in
their use.
However, probably until next
spring, We can count on having the
enemy tanks number.

Three CHILDREN
KILLED IN JULY
Drivers in Connecticut Are
Urged to Be More Cau-
ti0us By Commissioner

Three children were struck and
killed by automobiles during July in
Connecticut, the same number as
during that month last year, Motor
Vehicles Commissioner John r. Nc
Carthy pointed out today in bulle-
tin urging drivers to be on the alert
for children playing in or near the
street
Because of wartime driving re-
strictions. more children are con-
fined to the cities this summer and
consequently the danger of child
pedestrian accidents is greatly in
creased" the commissioner warned
I'm many cases children are less
strictly supervised because their
mothers are working.
Cup to July l this year, although
schools were open most of this per-
iod, 1893 children were struck by
automobiles in this state with 387
injured and six killed.
1.-THE driver must be alert at all
times for the thoughtless actions of
children" Commissioner Mccarthy
said approach them cautiously
whether they are in the street or
near the street."

Golf Enthusiasts to Be Ac.
c0mmOdated NOtwith-

Receipts

The municipal golf course will
continue to operate for approx
mately another month, 1t was de-
cided at Saturdays meeting of the
park board, announced Thomas F..
Moore, its secretary, today. DUR
ing the past couple of months the
course has been operated at a loss
as the result of poor transportation
to the grounds.
The course was opened earlier in
the year as an experimental pur-
pose while many persons recon-
mended that it be closed until the
gasoline restrictions were decreas-
ed. Mr.. Moore explained that the
receipts have been less than the eX-
penditures every month, howver, the
course had built up such a reserve
during the past several years that
the present plan appears feasible.
Providing the relaxation of The
pleasure driving restrictions Is made
as predicted, the end of the year
may be reached without loss, he
added.

BY THOMAS M. JOHNSON
NEA Military Writer

The victories in Sicily have OBJ
scured an equally dramatic and mil
itarily important event in Russia.
1t is important because it forecasts
the outcome of impending decisive
battle. And it is dramatic because
1t demonstrates that even in this
age of mechanical might, man still
can conquer the deadliest machines.
The tank has been licked And
today the foot soldier stands vic
tor over the Juggernaut which Po-
land, France, Holland, Belgium and
Yugoslavia found invincible.
The event in Russia boils down
to this: The Nazis attacked the Red
Army with higher proportion of
armored divisions to infantry than
ever has been seen before. They
used 1000 tanks in fierce, incessant
assaults. At first they gained, but
in less than month they lost
ground, the initiative, and most of
their 1000 tanks. This loss was due
partly to well-managed Russian ar
tillery fire, but largely to the Rus
sian infantryman and his equip
ment.
REDS HAVE ROCKET GUNS
The Red Army man has won this
victory partly by his own personal
courage, tempered by two years Of
the worlds hardest campaigning.
But he lacked neither craft nor
weapons. He lay and waited until
the heavily armored Tiger Mark vi
had passed, then turned and shot it
in It's vulnerable back with his long,
slender anti-tank rifle or with his
rocket-gun, which is very like our
Bazooka.
With that new weapon, our own
infantry in Tunisia and Sicily have
been almost equally successful
against smaller numbers of Nazi
tanks, ripping out their sides at $50
to 300 yards. Also they have used
anti-tank grenades, fired from a
funnel-like contraption in rifle
muzzle.
These grenades only lately have
been mentioned in dispatches, but
were tried out in this country some
time ago against tanks crewed by
chickens and pig. The results
were so sanguinary that the gre
