BY LEONARD MILLlMAN
Associated Press Wsr Editor

Daring American carrier pi-
lots raided the Indo-China coast
today and apparently bounced
on an enemy sea force speeding
from the southern seas to aid
beleaguered Japanese troops in
the Philippines where the U. S.
Sixth Army is driving toward
Manila.
The japanese Domei News
Agency reported about 80 sea-
borne aircraft made day long
raids on installations around Sal
gon-- on the southern Indo-China
coast.
Earlier Adm. Chester w. MINI
liz announced Pacific fleet car
rier planes were attacking the
Japanese "off the coast north
of Saigon. This indicated an air
sea battle between bold II. S.
carrier units striking against a
reinforcement convoy headed for
Luzon Island or a naval task
force coming out for the Tokyo
promised third battle Of the Phil
ippines.
SWEEP COASTLINE
The Japanese broadcast might
mean that part of the attacking
force swept the coast of the con-
tinent as Navy airmen did in
last Tuesdays attack on For
mosa. Or it might mean the main
force Of the raiders was directed
against air bases which could
send air endorsements to Lu-
ION.

While listening to Marian An
derson, Sunday, and observing
the packed auditorium, thought
Of the many students and per-
formers present, who would go
away with the resolve to emulate
Marian. 1t is well to have great
ambition, and to work for an
ideal. But, remember, every stu
dent cannot be a Marian Ander-
son, Roland Hayes, a Dett, or
top-notcher. Things just don't
work out that way for everyone.
So, get down to hard work, con-
slant practice, and let the pub
lie judge If you are worthy of
a high place among performers.
Self-judgement is bound to be
biased. We cannot Judge our
selves fairly. I meet so many
students and amateur perform
ers who complain that they are
not appreciated by the public,
and they blame the public for
it. Take my advice, and turn
the Serchlight inward; see II you
are honestly as good as you say
you are. Remember the handi-
caps of other activities which
prevent most of us from devot-
ing our entire time to the de-
velopment OF our art; finally,
realize that If you have what the
public wants, the public will buy
it. Continue to aspire, by all
means, and wait for your oppor-
tunity If you have the stuff
you will win. Make Symphony
Hall your objective, but don't
despise the way stations.

Preachers of the cult at the after

walked up to them and asked:

Yamato was described as very Sc
rious blow to the japanese Navy
because it is believed to be the, last
OF Japan's modern battleships.
The composition of the force ap-
peared to convince naval officials
that the Japanese were determined
to get clear of their hiding places
in the Inland Sea, where their posi-
tions had become untenable because
of the vast carrier strikes and the
land-based air attacks they have
received within the past week
There was a possibility that the
ships merely were heading for a
safer harbor at one of the homeland
ports on the China Sea.
Considered Great Victory.
Although dispatches from the Pa
cific indicate that there might have
been IL vessels in the task force,
the naval spokesman expressed the
belief that it did not consist of more
than 10 ships.
Naval officials made no secret of
the fact that they considered the
East China action as a great victory
for the American air forces.
The three destroyers announced
as lost were destroyed as the result
of the air attack which the Japanese
forces leveled against the operations
around Okinawa.

300 B-29s, Guarded
By Fighters, Pound
Tokyo and Nagoya
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
GUAM, April IA new phase in
the aerial war against the Japanese
homeland opened today as the wars
greatest B-29 force attacked Tokyo
and Nagoya protected for the first
time by land-based fighter planes.
Two of the Psi Mustang fighters
from Two lima were lost as they
shepherded the more than 300 super
forts delivering demolition bombs on
two large aircraft factories. The
fighter pilots were credited with
shooting down 81 enemy intercept
tors, probably downing six others
and damaging 10.
A fight of $500 miles was made
by the Mustangs in the round trip
from Two to Tokyo
The big bombers went in at me-
dium altitude in clear weather, in
dicating visual bombing of their
targets, the Nakaj jima -Musashino
aircraft engine plant in Western
Tokyo and the Mitsubishi aircraft
plant at Nagoya.
An Imperial Japanese communi-
que said 270 planes were in the
raiding force, 100 over Tokyo and
$50 at Nagoya No claim was made
by the japanese of any United
States planes being downed, but
Domei Agency dispatch said four or
five enemy" planes were downed
over Tokyo.
The Mustangs were units of the
7th Fighter Command, headed by
Gen. Ernest M. Moore, who recently
established headquarters on the
islands $50 miles south of Tokyo.
This is the first time Army Air
Force fighters ever have been over
Japan, and we had to go a long way
to do it," Gen. Moore said.
The Tokyo radio broadcast of the
imperial communique recorded by
the Federal Communications Com
mission said 100 American planes
raided Tokyo while $50 attacked tar
gets in the vicinity of Nagoya.
A japanese Domei agency dis
patch had previously reported about
40 Psi fighters in the Tokyo at
tacking force.
No claim was made in the imperial
headquarters announcement of any
planes being downed but a Domei
dispatch said in the skies over
Tokyo alone, four or five enemy
planes are reported to have been
bagged.'
