Forts Take Beating.
Corregidor and the other forts
continued to take their beating from
Cavite, and on Good Friday Of that
dismal Easter week the Jap barred
another section Of what might char
itably be called his soul by bombing
.a church at Miral, near Digos, on
Mindanao. On April 4 they began
using new-type bomb on Corregi-
dor, one which exploded with a
belch OF flame before 1t hit the
ground.
New waves of shock troops hit
Parker's line on the night of April
As and Jap barges, mounting 75-
nm. guns, struck his rear flank
from Manila Bay approaches. But
Parker's beach defenses sank a
number of these assault barges and
turned back the others. The situa-
ton on Parker's main front, how
ever, grew worse, and the Japs drove
him back through April with new
companies of tanks supported by
squadrons Of dive bombers.

I visited Gen. Parker that day. We

The Bataan battle took on a new

FLEET SONAR SCHOOL OUTCLASSES
BOCA RATION in BASKETBALL TILT

Fleet Sonar School reinforced
its claim TO Florida servicemen's
basketball honors by outclassing
BuCa Ration at the Fort Taylor
gym Saturday night, 50 to IS.
II was the eighteenth victory
m 10 games for the Sonarmen,
unbeaten champions of the ISL
and league, and was a repetition
Of a IS TO AZ conquest scored at
Boca Ration in January.
During the regular season
Boca Ration split two games with
MIC of Miami, who beat the
Sonarmen by two points for the
Key West teams only defeat.
Boca Ration also has beaten
Jacksonville Air Station.
Saturdays victory was the
more impressive since it was
achieved without the services of
George Lawry, ace forward and
leading scorer who was trans
ferred earlier in the week.
as IN their first meeting, Fleet
School started slowly and trailed
1T the quarter, 8 to Z. Boca Ration
made IT IL to 7 as the second
period started, at which point
the winners went to work.
Joe Dyer and Charles Gibson
found the range for a furry of
field goals and soon the Sonar
ncn were ahesd, never again to
trail. II was 20 to IA at the half
md SO To "a at the three-quarter
mark
The Sonarmen, as usual, set
fast pace and it was their super
ior condition and fierce ball
hawking which let them pull
away as the game progressed.
BoCa Ration used a fast-break,
long pass offensive effectively
in the early stages, but soon was
forced to resort to long shots.
Scoring honors went to Dyer,
whose unorthodox low trajectory
shots hit the mark for IA points.
Gibson contributed II timely
points, Henry Graf eight, Mario
Ponsalle seven, Coach George
Chalmers six and Al Amaturo
five
Shy, a battling giant who bag
ged IL points, and Day, who had
eight, were tops for the Army,
with Pomlecko exceptionally eff
cient on the rebounds. Bob
Bundy, ace scorer, was held to
three long, one-handed goals.

HILLMAN'S PLAN
MEETS APPROVAL

LONDON, Feb. 13.-(UP)-Sir
Walter Citrine, head of the Brit
ish Trade Unions, today accepted
the proposal for an entirely new
international labor organize ton
advanced to the world trade union
conference yesterday by Sidney
Hillman, Of the Congress of In
dustrial Organizations in the Unit
ed States.
Citrine had been expected to
fight for the old International
Federation OF Trade Unions but
he yielded to general opinion at
the conference with reservations
The British labor leader said
the conference should not COM
NIT itself unequivically, but should
appoint provisional committee
of Is members to canvass trade
union delegates on sentiment for
a new organization. II it finds
that strong sentiment exists, the
committee could draft q consti-
tuition and summon a convention.
Citrine disassociated himself
from HilEnan's criticism Of the
American Federation Of Labor,
which declined to attend the con-
ference and is known to favor the
old World Trade Union organiza-
ton.

MARKET ADVANCES
I'm BROAD DRIVE

NEW YORK, Feb. -. - (P) -
In one of the broadest markets of
the past year. stocks today hit
new 7-year average peak with
gains of fractions to more than 2
points spread over virtually all
departments.
Buying demand which had &C
cumulated over the holiday gave
the list a general lift at the start.
Sentiment was aided moderately
by results of the big Three par
ley which were about in lines with
expectations. Purchasing was bas-
ed partly on initiation psychology
inspired by the belief huge amounts
of idle investment funds soon or
later would have to find employ
ment in securities. Dividends and
earnings propped individual elm
bers.

Tribute Paid Late Teacher

Tribute. to Miss Carrie E. Lewis, retired school teacher who died No- vember 22, was rendered by Dr. John G. Gilmartin, superintendent of schools, at a meeting of the Board of Education last night.
 The statement was as follows:
 "It is with deep regret that re- port the death of Miss Carrie E. Lewis, which occurred on Nov. p. Most Of Miss Lewis teaching career was spent in Bishop and Hendricken schools. She retired in 1880.
 'Diminutive in stature, big of heart, Miss Lewis endeared her self to faculty and pupils alike. Her fellow teachers, in simple heartfelt laudation, have paid tri- bute to her gentle manner, her mild calm demeanor under the most trying circumstances, and to the many ladylike qualities that distinguished her. To each of her pupils sch gave an individual at- tention that continued beyond grammar school days into man. hood and womanhood. Through out the many quiet years of her retirement Miss Lewis active in terest in her boys and girls never waned and she never permitted the ties of her teaching friend ships to slacken.
 "The Department holds her in fond remembrance as woman of many talents, many delightful graces, many lovable characteris- tics"

ite recommendations on how it should be resolved.
 Cooling Period Remains
 Labor would be forbidden to strike while the board was deliberat- ing, thus providing a 3O-day "cool- ing off" period in disputes. But the boards recommendations would not be binding upon either labor or management.
 Under MT. Truman's plan, the boards would have the power to subpoena individuals and records in their fact finding operations.
 Congress gave the Presidents message a cordial reception, but labor leaders were definitely cool AFL President William Green said bluntly that it was unacceptable to labor" Spokesmen for both the CIO and the United Mine Workers indicated that their unions would adopt the same attitude. In off the record statements, industry spokesmen made it clear that they were opposed to the subpoena pow CTS of the proposed fact-finding boards.
 Marcantonio Opposes
 In the House, only Rep. Vito Marcantonio, A. L., N. Y, came out in direct opposition to MT. Tru- mans message. He said that the Presidents proposals were "defin- itcly anti-labor" and would give management "a tremendous stra- tegic advantage"
 HOSPITAL BULLETINS
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-12-04

Continued from Page D that "all issues" of the dispute may be considered.
 In the first meeting, the officials discussed only the companys com plaint of alleged picketing viola tions in barring office workers from their jobs. That will be the topic tomorrow when Anderson and Reu- ther meet again to seek settlement on picketing activities.
 200 Delegates Called
 As for President Truman's appeal to the strikers, the union called a conference of delegates from Gen eral Motors locals for 10 8. m. EST. Saturday in Detroit. The preslden- tial message will be submitted to the 200 delegates without recom- mendation, and a ballot of the con- ference will determine the policy to be reported to 115 GM locals.
 Before Monday night, Dec. 10, re- suits of local balloting are expected for determination of the final JAW reply to the White House.
 Union members are expected to support their officials opposition to MT. Truman's peace bid. President R. J. Thomas declared after con- ference with union officers that the proposed fact-f1nding board threatens the foundations of dern- ocracy."
 we do not like the Presidents proposal" he said.
 Reuther and Thomas sped to Pittsburgh at once for conference with C1O President Philip Murray. The form and degree of labor "co- operation" which finally would meet the presidential request was expect ed to be shaped in that meeting.

 P U TAKE 2
 MT. Smith first established the China shop during the ''gaslight era in the old Bowdich building where Grants 25 cents store stands today. During the turn of the cen tury, he moved his establishment to 20 North Main street. The China shop has been located at it's present site since 1913.
 MT. Smith attended primary schools in this city and was a grad uate of the old Waterbury High school. His wife, the former Alice Cole, of this city, died in 1929. His only child, Howard, was drowned while a student at Taft in 1905. There are no immediate survivors.
 The veteran retailer was a mem Der of St. Johns church. Funeral arrangements will be announced later,
