There were long minutes before
the cruiser began to fire. The
"Spitkit" had lit out for home and
she had a good start.
The cruiser herself was on the
horizon when the orange flashes
of gunfire colored her gray shape
but even at this range, one could
see the white splashes where the
shells were landing.
Planes were coming over, too
to finish the job.
Another Jap patroller was done

We left our cruiser and her foe

ship reported he had seen the JAP

the ensign. And the gun crews

And so the time came for

were still ploughing through head

The last plane wobbled down
the deck and paused, waiting for

While the bomber paused, a Sec

Our ship and the Hornet swung

The giant bomber was air

Scouting Planes
In Minor Disaster

Two of our scouting planes met
with minor disaster in returning
TO the Hornet.
Landing on the pitching deck,
one plane went into ground

was lost; but the pilot and his
observer were rescued. No one was
injgfed in either of the crashes.

The 60-foot prov OF the carrier
