a very wealthy city before the war.
Most of the homes / have been in

small statues, large libraries, love-

and the most beautiful paintings
l have ever seen.
The public buildings are very inn
preSSive and artistic, also the large

Many people here speak English.

pick up some lead but they didn't
have much time to set up business.
The great wall is about ten min
utes north of Peking so we went
up and had a look at it the other
day. All l can say is that the
ChinkS didn't have much to do to
build a wall like that. 1t must have
taken years the way they work,
They are slow and will steal any
thing in sight. l caught one steal
ing a carton of cigarettes from me.
We made him lie down and / got
my Samari sword out and acted
as though l was going to cut off
his head. He stuck out his hands
that we might cut them off. That
must be the way they are treat
ed for stealing. We scared him
good and pleny At least he hasn't
been seen lately around these
parts.
The Chniks have a peculiar sup
erStition that the devil is always
directly behind them and that if
they can quickly shut a door be-
hind them or sharply turn a path
in the woods they can in some mys-
teriouS manner cut him off. Some
have tried running directly across
the path of a plane in the process
of landing hoping that the pro-
peller might cut the devil from
them. OF course their doing this is
not always properly timed and
many are killed in their foolhardy
undertaking. This constitutes one
great menace at the landing fields
unless properly guarded. do have
plenty of respect for the better
class Chinese and there are plenty
of them here in Shanghai too. They
have a wonderful sense of humOr
and are very polite.
Shanghai is a wonderful city and
the best / have seen this side of the
States. There seems to be plenty of
every thing to buy. You can get a
six course dinner for $1.25 and
less in some places. I've eaten at d
different place every time. Have
even eaten one meal with chop
stick. Have seen a lot of crazy
things over here. There are many
Russians. Poles. English. French
and Germans who were interned
here during the war. The Japs now
occupy their quarters and mind
their own business pretty well.
It's definitely decided that we're
going to be on the boat by the last
of November so I'll have my feet
under a table back home for
Christmas. We have some u. S.
troops to haul out of Chikiang and
then will give the planes to the

: Coach Al "Knobby" Provost has issued a call for leather-pushers in an effort to revive one of the Bases most popular sports. In the past Bradley Field was a name to reckon with in the manly art of self defense and "Knobby" is de- sirous of once again building a team to compete with surrounding military installations and civilian athletic clubs.
 All men who have had any ring experience whatsoever are urged to get over to the Base gym to see Provost who has done won ders with his past teams. On the other hand, experience is not necessary. Any man who would like to learn to toss leather should take crack at it and let Knob by" decide whether or not he has the makings of a successful boxer.

 A partial answer to this one, ac- cording to Sgt. Barrett McGurn in the July 9th issue of TANK is that the Jap private takes beating during his basic that makes our chicken look like pure gravy. Fur thermore, he only gets $1.5O month at home and up to $2.25 more in combat zones.
