CRYSTAL SPRINGS GOSSIP

Mary M. Jones was looking
mighty sad when Roosevelt Price
left for the Navy.
Wake up Oslo Mae Thomas,
where were you when Mr.. T. T.
was riding certain from Jackson
around Sunday afternoon. You had
better get hipped, because she may
come back ito Crystal Springs and
she is mighty attractive chick.
Firgie Red you had better slow
down and take it easy or a bomb
may fall on you from out of the
East and you might get badly hurt.
Ether M. Barnes is really hipped
to Glide Benson's 1--WE, why don't
YOU other girls get hipped?
Don't worry Gustinia, Uncle
Sam will give Adrell jackson a
furlough soon.
We wonder if John Price is two
timing his brother or is that his
own girl friend and he just trying
to get by?
frankie Mae Chrysler and Eu-
nice Powell we say you all getting
into the car Saturday night.
Wonder if Evelyn gave Roose-
welt the beautiful picture she had
for him at the train Monday?
Margaret told her boss lady that
she was sick so she could get off
and meet No. f. She meant she
was sick because Roosevelt was
leaving. Roosevelt was smart,
however, because he had Margret's
picture made with his sister and
then told her he was going to see
his father, but really went to see
Evelyn. Take a tip Margret, don't
run at the sailor, have the sailor
run after you.

Chrysler you carried to the show
Wednesday night, what have you
done with Alice Nelson?
Doris Jenkins you had better sit
down with one boy friend.
Bennie Valley hasn't stop run

strictly can run and that's no joke.

to have forgot you, what the trou-

start Of the all-eut heavy bomber
assault on Germany. She flew her
first mission January 20, going to
Frankfurt with some 900 other
heavies.
Listed among the ships u assign
ments are the names of detectives
that represent many of the great
est undertakings by American
bombers. There were Brunswick,
Wilhelmshayen, oberpfaffenhofen.
Berlin, Merseburg, Kiel, Mannheim,
Haiberstadt and Hamburg. Other
weil-knewn targets In Germany that
have come In for pasting by the
"Nevada's" explosive include Brs-
men, Leipzig. Munich, Gelsenkir-
chen, LHdEigshafen, Endheyen,
Hamm, 0snabryck, Cologne, Madge-
burg and Munster.
For an aircraft so battle-exper-
fenced, the "AYenger" has led a
comparatively charmed life. Most
Of her serious mishaps came during
the early days of her career.
The Nevada Avenger" really
looked run down at the heels the
day she staggered back from her
sixth mission, a falkland fighter
infested visit to the scene of her
initial flight. Frankfurt. Master
Sergeant Chester L. Thompson, IS,
OF e8l 18th street, Mason City, Iowa,
who with his ground crew nursed
the ship through her first 2S opeT-
atoms, stuck his head through a
jagged hole in the side and looked
into radio compartment that more
closely resemblsd a pile Of rubbish.
The ship was punetured like q sieve
from nose to tail-1hempson est
mated between 400 and 500 holes.
She had to be hospitalized for three
weeks while repairs were being
made.
On her eleventh mission one of
the "Nevada's" wheels obstinately
refused to be lowered for q landing,
With the results that the pilot was
compelled to come in ON enc wheel.
All entire new landing gear had to
be installed after that misadyen-
ture.
Except for those two incidents,
the Nevada Avengers" injuries
have been minor-just a few harm
less flax or bullet holes now and
then. She was q lucky ship, too. Not
a man was so much as wounded
ON her first II flights. But on No.
"a the veteran battle-wagon re-
turned home with dead waist gun
ner on board-a victim of flax.
The month the Allies punched o
hole In the Atlantic Wall and land
ed in Normandy the old "Avenger"
had scarcely q moment to herself
She nearly flew herself into a state
Of exhaustion, making June her
busiest month to date. Twenty times
the old girl went up, II times to
pound the ferries in France, twice
to Hamburg and once to Bremen.
One day she took part in a double
header, crossing the channel in the
morning, returning to the field for
another load of bombs, and going
out again in the afternoon.
Most Of the credit for the crafts
brilliant and consistent performance
goes to the two crews of mechanics
who have meRded her wounds, at
tended to her whims, and have
treated her like lady.
