OUR LOSS

Your shop committee has suf-
fered lately due to the loss of
Dick Bowers to our Uncle Sam.
The loss of Brother Boyers is
also a handicap. Those who are
filling the places of our two de-
parted members will try the best
of their ability to do a good job
for the members of the Unit.
One of the largest meetings
ever held by our Unit took place
following our back-to- work
move. Enthusiasm rose to new
high and we hope it will remain
there.
What has happened to the op-
position or are they SO small
they don't care to show them
selves? No one has accepted the
challenge that was offered and
apparently nobody is going to
stick their neck out.
AS friends and fellow work
ers, we regret the passing of
Dude" Mattimore. Although
Dude" was a foreman, he was
square fellow and would go out
of his way to do anyone a favor.
If we had more foremen like
Dude" the company would
have no difficulty in maintain
ing better relations in the plant.

equalled by any ship of any navy.
 I think the story, as told with dignity and sincerity by it's au- thor, is one of the very best out of this war. Enterprise" was lucky, of course, but with the kind of luck that is mostly skill. At Midway Air Group Command CT McClusky made a right deci- sion and turned the tide; at Guadalcanal Commander Turner Caldwell was caugn, out by dark ness, and decided to land his II planes at Henderson Field, thus enabling our marines to hold their position.
 But for all the brilliant incl dent. fully reported, there is a steady accompaniment of sturdy, strong work--in the Gilbert-Mar- shall raid, at Wake, at Marcus 1s- land, at Midway, Guadalcanal, at the Stewart Islands, the Santa Cruz Islands, the Solomons. These are the beads of the Big citation is the highest honor any ship can be awarded, and the Big Els rosary. The Presidential unit E. got it first For Bull" Halsey as for the Swede who rescued seven frying men deep in the car rier, it was deserved. Mir.

LITERARY CUIDEPOST

 When Eugene Burns began writing "Then There Was One'' he must have made a decision. He could follow the pattern of the slick magazines, which is to be terrific" to slap everybody verbally on the back, from dicta- tors to diaper babies. to dive bomb his reader, as 1t were. Or he could report what he saw in choice English, and let the un- vanished truth do the work.
 He decided to report, and it was the right decision. He begins with the carrier Enterprise" sailing from Pearl Harbor to Wake under prophetic orders, to deliver a load of planes. Before she got back to her base it. had been attacked. With one exception the Enterprise" participated in every major action of the Paci- fic war though 194z, and although security reasons prevent MT. Burns bringing the story up to date, she is still in there, still pitching, though not now alone. At the time of Pearl Harbor there were seven first line carries. Four were sunk in the first year, one saw action in another theater, and at the decisive moment another was unable to take part. The Enterprise" did the work of six carriers, at the end, and its job is one that MT. Burns believes un-

Death Claims
Dean Cooley
Engineering Authority
at IA Sueeumbs

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Aug. IS
- (P - Mortimer E. Cooley,
dean of the University of Mich
igan College of Engineering
from 1904 until June 80, 1923,
died at 1880 a. m. today in Uni
versity Hospital.
An engineering authorit y
whose reputation was world
wide, he continued dean emeri-
tus of the college until his death,
although failing health had con-
fined him to the hospital for
much of the past year.
To Dean Cooley, retirement
was merely nominal. The West
ern Society of Engineers voted
him its Washington award for
1890 and in 1884 he headed the
Michigan State Highway Advis-
DRY Board. In 1885 he became
acting state director of the Fed
eral Public Works Administra-
ton.
AS recently as 1893 he was
made vice chairman of the
Mackinac Straits Bridge Com
mission.
