AGAINST Track Star

WASHINGTON, Nov. II -
P) From somewhere in the
Pacific comes a story by Marine
correspondent Theron Rice of a
race between a man and a
bomber.
Said Sergeant Theron, form
erly of the Wednesday Evening
Star:
The bomber won, by frac-
tions of a second.
1T all began when 1t. Ches-
ter Ruffin, of Moorhead, Miss,
a former track star at Perkins
ton, Miss, Junior College de-
clared he could beat Ventura
medium bomber in a race of no
more than 100 yards. Lieutenant
Commander ElWyn l.. Christian,
of 37241a Park boulevard, San
Diego, Calf, accepted the chal-
lenge.
although Lieutenant Ruffin
led most of the way, the mo-
mentum gained by the plane
pushed it across the finish line
35 feet ahead. The bomber s
time was 81 seconds, Lieuten-
ant Ruffin's 9.95 seconds"

More than $500 bombers, the
greatest air fleet ever to 60 into
a single action in direct support
of an army, blasted the ap-
proaches to the Rhine for five
hours yesterday in opening Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower's Winter
offensive.
German Westwall troops and
defenses in front of three Allied
armies were bombarded with
more than $4,000 tons of ex-
plosives and field dispatches said
that before nightfall hundreds of
stunned Nazi prisoners had been
taken.
While the weather was not al
together favorable. the attack
was described as more effective
and better concentrated in places
than at either Caen or Saint Lo,
where similar carpet bombings
touched off spectacular land Of
fensives.
The massive attacks went un-
challenged by the German air
force. Out of all the U. S. Eighth
