A Beating Off Leyte

AN ADVANCE PIT BASE,
|LEYTE, p. l.. Nov. II Delayed -
American PIT boats at last have
met their Japanese counterpart, and
lin sea battle Of the midgets have
given the enemy q thrashing he
never will forget.
The encounter took place last
night between the island OF Cebu
and the town of Ormoc, Japanese
port Of entry on Leyte Island, when
three enemy PTS undertook to
escort four supply-laden barges into
Ormoc.
The action that followed was
witnessed by Stan Sergt. Henry Nc
Lemore, former columnist and sports
writer, from the bridge OF an Ameri-
can PIT.
"We were out shooting barges
ourselves" he said. TN the dis
|tance we saw Little Joe,' a PIT
commanded by 1t. q. g. Don Nc
KILN of Buffalo, NY, make a
sweet starboard run on the enemy
convoy.
"The first Jap PIT blew up almost
in Little Joe's face. Two of the
four barges burst into flames and
sank. Then McKillin went after
the other two japanese PTS, which
left their escorts and lit out for
Cebu as fast as they could run.
"The whole show didn't last more
than 20 minutes. McKillin closed
in to go yards, firing every gun he
had. One of the Japs turned, ap-
parently when he saw he couldn't
get away, and tried to make a RAM
ming run.
"He came within 40 yards (of Nc
Killin's boat and then seemed to
burst aflame from bow to fantail in
one great whoosh. Then he sank
Little Joe got out OF there fast. 1t
was hot as hell

Grant Praises Site.

Maj. Gen. U. s. Grant III, chair
man Of the National Capital Park
and Planning Commission, informed
the meeting that the proposed sta
dium site along the Anacostia River
at the foot Of East Capitol street
was regarded by the planners ''as
almost q natural location for q
sports center" He explained that
the area lends itself to the develop
ment of adequate transportation
facilities, and that there Is sufacient
space to develop all the features Of
the sports center and to provide
ample parking space for automobiles.
He warned against making the
stadium too large, and said that II
this mistake is made, many Of the
spectators would be unable to see
what is going on in the arena.
Mr.. Henry, in proposing that the
1948 Olympic Games be invited to
Washington, urged that the COM
fort Of the spectators be taken into
consideration by furnishing backs
for all the seats and by providing
sufncient powder rooms for women.
He said 1t has long been the desire
OF the Olympic Committee to hold
the games here, and that only lack
OF facilities prevented the selection
Of washington.

CHUNGKING, Nov. l8.-The jap
anese struck nearly Is miles closer
to Kweichow Province in a drive
believed designed to snap the Burma
road at Kweiyang and nullify the
land supply route the Allies pare
fighting to reopen to China.
a Competent quarters estimated
that Gen. Shunroku Hata had as
sembled 250,000 troops in South
China for this campaign, which
threatens to bring the war to
Chungking's front yard and wrest
from the American air force its
Super Fortress bases in Western
China.
China's Needs Emphasized.
The Chinese high command an
nounced the Japanese were within
q few miles of Hwaiyuanchen, 13
miles west Of Ishan-captured yes
terday-o on the railway leading
northwest from fallen Liuchow into
Kweichow and Its capital, Kweiyang
1t Is at Kweiyang that the Burma
road, winding up out of the wilder
ness in Yunnan Province, turns al
most due northward to Chungking,
2l0 miles from Kweiyang.
Chinese quarters, taking for grant,
ed that the japanese conquerors of
Hankow had embarked on long
delayed master plan to knock China
out of. the war, declared China
never was more in need of help
than now.
Gen. Hata Called ABLE
;, Maj. Gen.. Albert c. Wedemeyer,
commander of American forces in
China, revealed he had made rec
concentrations to Generalissimo
Chang Kai-shek for simple, and I
hope sound" dispositions to meet the
moves of the enemy.
!. Gen. Wedemeyer said Gen. Hata,
whom he styled very able COM
mander," might push southwark
from Liuchow to join Japanese
forces in French Indo-C China,
strike for Kweiyang or drive on
Chengtu, in Szechwan Province.
The prospective opening of the
Burma-Ledo road, he said, would
enable China to receive heavy guns
and other equipment which cannot
be freighted in by air.
