18TH FIR FORGE
 HIT fl COUNTRIES IN FIRST YEAR
BY JAMES E. ROPER

Limited Press Staff CorrespOndentl
 Rome, Nov. 20--(UP)-The 18th Army Air Force likes to travel.
 During its first year of operation, the 18th Liberators and Flying For tresses made calls on II different countries-a record for Army pilots.
 Dropping bombs at 8 year-long rate of some g tons per hour, these American planes hit Germany, France, Italy, Hungary, Austria, Greece, Jugoslavia, Albania, Cze- choslovakia, Romania and Bulgaria.
 But not without cost. About D. 200 18th Air Force heavy and me- dium bornbers and fighters were shot down over enemy territory. The 18th, however, destroyed 3,625 enemy aircraft in combat, and wrecked another 1000 on the ground.
 Dropped 100000 Tons The 18th had to work on PIP days during the year to drop its 200, 900 tons of bombs on 620 missions.
 The 18th Air Force was only one day old when, on Nov. 2, 1943, it sent 112 heavy bombers against Wiener NellStadt, Austria. In that first month, 80 per cent of the forces raids were against Northern Italy, but in the twelfth month of the year, only 30 per cent were against these home" targets.
 The intervening battles, com mented It. Gen. Ira c. Baker, con- mander-in-chief of the Mediter- ranean Allied Air Forces, twill stand as guiding beacon to ever greater accomplishment during the final, crushing drive on the enemy" PIoesti Climax Accomplishments so far include: l. The great "oil campaign" di- rected against natural oil reflner- ies in Axis-held territory, and climaxed by the battle for Plo- esti"-an air battle which some high-ranking air officers credit with knocking Romania out of the war.
 2. The worlds longest fighter bomber raid-an attack on Ploesti. 3. Destruction of the wiener Nuestadt, Budapest and RegenS- bury fighter plane factories. 4. The bomber and fighter shut tie flights to Russia.
 5. The destruction of CaSSino with the heaviest bomb load which at that time ever had been loosed against such a small target; and close ground support for American troops at Anzia and Marshal T1toS forces in Jugoslavia.

Big 10 Football
Mentors Praised

CHICAGO, Nov. IA - (PO -
Athletic Commissioner John l.,
Griffith of the Western Confer
ence took exception today to
what he said were claims the
Navy was solely responsible for
the wartime preservation OF
College football.
When such credit is extended,
Griffith declared in his weekly
release of conference statistics,
the big ten should receive good
share.
He asserted that such civilian
teams as Ohio State, Illinois and
Indiana which reeled under the
first impact of the manpower
shortage two seasons ago now
boast top-flight teams due to
perseverance of their athletic
officials at time when schools
elsewhere we're throwing in the
sponge.

.IIIini-Ohio
Clash Means


CHICAGO, Nov. IA up -
You can take it from Doug Mills,
athletic director at the Univer-
sity of Illinois, there will be
plenty of fireworks popping
when the Illini and Ohio State
meet at Cleveland Saturday,
and we expect 10 make our
share of explosions.
"We have had a few bad
breaks at critical points in some
of Our games notably the Notre
Dame game" he said yesterday
at the wailing wall, a weekly
post norton" on midWestern
football.
Nov the boys feel ii is time
for the good breaks TO catch up
with US, and they are confident
this will happen Saturday"
But good breaks or bad, there
will be a crowd of at least 3d.
1863 in municipal stadium TO see
the midwest's only major UNI
beaten college team, Ohio State,
meet the thrice beaten Illini.
That many tickets have been
sold, Mills said, and he added:
I'VE could sell 10000 tickets,
If we had enough seats"
Mills based his prediction Of
Illinois fireworks on the hope
that Buddy Young, Paul Patter-
son and Don Greenwood, who
were kept pretty we'll bottled
up by Michigan last week,
would be shaken loose by the
Ilini line. He also said that with
the possible exception of Eddie
Bray, who suffered recurrence
of a knee injury last week, he
expected the Illinois team to be
at full strength.
Meanwhile, at Columbus,
Coach Carroll Widdoes was taxi
ing no time out as he prepared
for the game, which can clincn
at least a share of the Western
Conference title for the Buck
eyes. Instead of the usual light
drill and showing Of movies OF
last weeks game, he sent the
squad through a long, strenuous
workout.
Coach Widdoes said that Cen.
ter and Captain Gordon Apple
by, tackle Bill Willis and Full
back Ollie Cline, sidelined with
injuries last week, would be
back at their regular posts
against the Illini.

Local High Schools Finish Grid Season
'MCHS Among States Best;
Mountoineers in 5th Spot
St. Mary's

In their last game OF the sea-
son, st. Marys Mountaineers
went down TO a 81 TO 0 defeat at
the hands OF ST. Rita's of De-
troit, to hand their opponents
the championship of the second
division of the Catholic league.
st. Mary's ends the season in
fifth place with a won two, lost
five games record.
II nothing else, however, the
Mountaineers showed promise
for next season, as Coach Homer
Van Hollenbeck Scraped the
bench clean of reserve power, u.s.
ing not one senior during the en-
tire game. The Mountaineers'
chief threat, fullback Francis
DLuge was not even in uniform,
being kept out because of injury.
st. Mary's regular center, Miller,
also did not see action.
In the first quarter, the st.
Rita eleven scored twice to build
up a 13 to 0 lead. The first
marker came as a result of a
drive from midfield. The De-
troit eleven used about ten
plays, including a long pass, to
reach the Mountaineer seven
yard line from where they drove
over for the score. Still in the
same quarter St Rita player in
terCepted Mountaineer pass in
about midfield and behind fine
blocking ran the remaining dis
lance for the score.
Again in the third quarter, a
St. Rita player turned a Noun
taineer pass into score for the
Detroit eleven, intercepting the
aerial on the st. Mary 40-yard
line, and travelling the remaining
distance behind his blocking for
the third touchdown.
st. Rita'S last score came in the
last quarter when, after an ex-
change of punts, they executed a
fine off-tackle play, the Detroit
player following his blocking
and reversing his field 10 cross
the Mountaineer goal.

CrisIer Faces
Tough Task
Two Engagements
on IA Dotebook

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Nov. IA
Up Pointing the Michigan
football squad toward its title
clash with Ohio State more than
a week away without allowing a
letdown in the Wisconsin game
here Saturday is the difficult
task facing the Wolverine coach
ing staff.
Head Coach Fritz Crisler and
his aides know the Ohioans are
much the tougher of the two
final opponents, but realizing
the difficulty of keeping a team
in high pitch two weeks in a
row they can't overlook the
Badgers, whom Michigan must
get by in order to stay in the
Western Conference race.
Wisconsin has an unimpress-
i've season record Of three vic
tories and four losses, but has
scored against Ohio State, Notre
Dame and Great Lakes. But the
Wolverines, who have lost only
TO Indiana, are being warned
that if they are caught in an
overconfident mood the Nov. IS
tilt at Columbus may have little
to do with the selection of a
Big Ten champion.
While aiming its defense
against anticipated Wisconsin
aerials, Michigan is expected to
continue polishing its running
attack which has worked so
well during the past few weeks.
Yesterdays session was utilized
in reviewing movies of the vic
tory over Illinois and scouting
reports on the Badgers.
Crisler meanwhile messaged
condolences to Wisconsin ath-
letic officials over the death Of
