Wilbur Grissam, in the sight of
every one, was about the best fight
er in the Gloves, having to his
credit four knock outs. All of
which occurred in the first round.
His last fight he fought a kid
twenty years old and who had had
plenty of experience and was the
only fight that he went three
rounds. 5000, if any of you
cats think you are bad, don't jump
on him or if you girls want the
cave man type, pick up on him,
chick, he's not occupied. Our
trainer, Harry Davis, was so happy
when we won the cup that he al
most danced into the ring to re-
ceive it. There were two cham
pionships and one runner-up from
Wheatley. they were Wilbur
the champ, Lyle Lewis, the runner
up and me, the other chump, l
mean champ.
We received golden gloves with
a white sapphire in them and
Lewis got a silver glove with a

WITH THE FIFTH ARMY in
ITALY, Feb. IS - Gen.
George c. Marshall, making a
surprise tour of the Italian
front. told Fifth Army soldiers
yesterday that they have immo-
bilized large German forces in
Italy, preventing these Nazi
troops from bolstering sagging
lines on the Eastern and West
ern fronts.
1t is estimated the Nazis have
81 divisions in Italy.
Marshall's statement was an
obvious tonic to the Fifth Army
troops, many Of whom have
been overseas battling the Axis
more than three years.
The U. S. Army chief of staff
made an unexpected, three-day
tour of the Fifth's sector on his
way home from the Crimean
conference. He wore overseas
for the first time his new five
star insignia as a General of the
Army.
Is STOPS
1t was Marshall's first visit to
the Italian front since last June
and he made IS stops, including
a trip to the place the CTS have
been calling Death Valley"
since the Germans threw some
$500 rounds of ammunition into
it last December. It still is un-
der perfect observation from
enemy-held hills.

Points to Pegsins Down
of Huge German Forces

Later the same afternoon
Marshall scrambled up a mud
begged trail to a forward obser,
walton post from which he coulc
see virtually the entire eastern
sector Of the Fifth Army front
He gave officers and enlisted
men here all the way from real
echelons to the front a general
picture of plans for the defea,
of Germany.
AS his tour ended, Marshall
said:
"Such a spirit of common pur'
pose, such teamwork, make!
certain the destruction Of Ger.
man military powers"
Commenting on the campaign
in Italy, he added:

Under these conditions oul
US. troops and those of our al
allies have done q splendid job
and made a great contribution
to the war. A large German
force has been held in Italy and
prevented from bolstering the
enemy's hard-pressed troops on
the Eastern and Western fronts
"The infantry has borne the
greatest burden Of the struggle
but has been strongly supported
by the perfect cooperation Of the
air, artillery and other arms Of
the service. The supply of troops
has been made possible by the
eally magnificent work of the
engineers in the mountains.

"The strategical air force in
Italy has struck an amending

Judge E. K. Bryan

Known as one Of the most able attorneys
,voting their careers to practice IN the s'a'e
civil courts, the death Of Judge Egbert kedar
BRYAN is real loss to the New Hanover
county bar.
A quiet gentleman Of sterling integrity, ne
gained prominence among his associates ana
fellow citizens in his studious, diligent prac-
tice throughout a long and useful lie. before
declining health necessitated curtallment OF
his activity, seldom was any major civil It'll
cation brought to trial here or in other Sec
tons of Eastern North Carolina without Judge
Bryan participating.
To every case he gave meticulous care IN
its preparation and to every member of the
bar he was known as a fair and rugged con-
testant, whose efforts in behalf of his
clients interest were never relaxed. 1t was
these attributes, plus those of good judgment
and character, that gained for him the high
both friend and opponent.
He seldom deviated from his extensive civil
practice and cared little for politics. The only
public offices he ever held were a Superior
court judgeship, to which he was appointed
by the late Governor Aycock, and two-year
period as Wilmington city attorney
A lawyers lawyer, his career should be an
fession in the knowledge that his fine reputa-
ton was achieved through daily application of
the highest principles of the practice of law
in his dealings with all who sought his ad-
vice and aid.

An agreement that armed force will be used
to put down aggression in the Western Henis-

DELEGATION at the 1nter-American conference
in Mexico City. 1t is timely. The trouble
makers. once repressed in Europe, will look
for new fields Nothing would suit them bet

There is only one language that an aggres-
sor Observation-Disclosures. There is only one thing
that will stop him-force. The time to apply it
is when he starts some devilment, nip him in
the bud, prevent a little aggressor from be-
coming big one. Talk has been tried and 1t
failed An aggressorism doesn't pay any at
tention to that He does to bullets.
Whoever starts another war should be taken
out quickly and suddenly and his career ended
before he gets underway. The era Of dictators
is about over now but it has been costly in
lives and materials. They strutted their little
day across the face of the earth, ruined it,
SCARED it, bled it. The lesson is plain. The

plants if the government operates these plants
without profit to the owners
It would seem, perhaps that the con-
troversy in the guinea pig labor draft case
in New Bedford is over management profit
from war business, rather than government
assignment Of labor.
But if the tire plants should provide indus
trial facilities for the government without pro-
fit it might seem only fair that the workers
draw the prevailing government wage paid

assigned to the same task. Here
in the Mediterranean, one officer
is assigned to do job regardless
of nationality. 1t seems to work
with reasonable degree of har-
mony.
Presumably, when the war is
ended, this international command
will be dismantled. But why
should it not serve as nucleus for
an international air force to keep
peace?
1t seems too valuable a prece-
dent to discard lightly. 1t offers a
working formula for the kind OF
cooperation that must come if we
are to rescue ourselves from u1ti-
mate and final doom.
Eventually, in peacetime, this
international air force could be ex-
banded to include all nationalities
in proportion to their air strength.
Here is no less than the pattern for
a United Nations air force. To
wipe out the start that has been
made here would seem to be a
tragic waste. Sooner or later, in
