A War To Win

Apparently optimism the situation,
generally expressed by the civilian population, is now
shared by the men whose business it is to make vic
tory possible.
Recently there has been much in the news WHICH
has been cheering. The Pacific campaign seems to
be going we'll Bombing Of Nazi territory, being
carried out by day and night is becoming more and
more effective. The Russians continue to pile up
trouble for the Nazis Those who view the picture
from afar would to have ample justification for
optimism.
Recently three men who know at first hand the
resources and strategy Of the armed forces of the
United States gave their opinions to the progress
of the war. All said there is still war to win
Speaking for the Navy, Rear Admiral Cooke, deputy
chief of staff said that in spite of brilliant naval
successes way had not been found to deploy suffi
cient ground forces to defeat the Japs. Undersecre
tary of War Patterson pointed out the great task of
supplying munitions to armies stationed at the ends
of 5000 miles Of sea lanes
Major General Hershey, selective service direc-
tor said it would be necessary to supply repacements
for the nations fighting units at the rate Of 100000
year for an indefinite period None Of the
three is at all doubtful over the final outcome But
they emphasize that the war still is to be won.

The team is being coached by
Alfredo Lefty Valencia, we'll
known Nogalian, and athlete of
considerable repute. Lefty has
had previous experience in the art
of coaching and needs no introduc-
ton
The Athletic Committee of the
Legion Junior Baseball organiza-
ton is highly pleased to note that
the boys are taking a keen interest
in the practice and try-out drills,
and make a special effort to report
to the coach for practice each day.
Baseball talent is there aplenty!
This Legion Junior Baseball pro-
gram is the very thing that is going
to develop all this talent and see
| it combined into a crack team
perhaps championship team in
the years to come. A large number
of the boys who have already re-
ported for baseball duty will have
two and three more years of partici-
patton in Legion Junior Baseball
before they become ineligible, all of
which improves the possibility of a
championship team.
The main objectives of the Legion
Junior Baseball program is to build
strong bodies, alert minds and per-
feet teamwork in our youngsters. It
is through these elements that our
boys will in days ahead be better
equipped to meet the tasks before
them.

Trained as an X-ray technician before entering the service the Corporal says she much prefers handling isobars and such with or without the wind and the rain in her hair.

nation has been fair but not the type that is necessary to support armies of our nation"
 No Let Ups Now
 Mobilization Director J m 5 Byrnes has cracked down on the na- tion's race tracks as unessential. It is hoped that this would create ad- ditlonal manpower. It is believed by the WING that considerable more manpower can be obtained by volun- tary transfer of skilled workers from essential plants in the state in- to war work. However, if this vollln- tary transfer fails, it means that the WING will go to the limit to reduce ceilings of these unesSential plants, business places and other establish ments to obtain the necessary man. power. We, in America have been called upon again for additional ef- fort similar to that which was brought out after the declaration of war against our enemies. This ef- fort has eased up considerably in the past year partially so because of en- couraging war reports. However, no matter what the cause of the let-up in our production levels today we must re-dedicate our efforts to a greater pace to insure support for our armed forces in the vitally need ed materials which are necessary to insure success in Europe. We are prepared to go to the limit to give our armed forces the materials they need and we ask the cooperation of industry and labor in this urgent call.''
