 From the 18th to 17th, she cons ducted her patrol off of Hele@ Shoals.
 On the 17th, the DACE moved to a patrol area west of Truk neas Pulusuk Island. Several plane con~ tactS were made.
 On February 22nd, she eDs changed signals with the USS PER- MT. At midnight, that same days the DACE received orders to reA turn to Milne Bay, New Guinea.
 En route to Milne Bay, she met the USS DARTER and the two subs proceeded in company the rest of the way.
 This patrol also was not success full and the combat insignia was not authorized.
 The patrol lasted 49 days.
 War Patrol Number Three
 After a two-week rest period spent at Camp Beeman, Milne Bay, the officers and crew re- turned to the DACE on March 11th much refreshed. The DACE was ready for sea on March 16. Shs got underway on her third way patrol in company with the US9 FOUNDER and escorted by the USS BACHE. On March 18, she arrived at Langemak Bay to pick up passengers for special missions. She then departed or her area late the same afternoon.
 After reconnoitering the coast near Hollandia, Netherlands New Guinea, at close range for two days and a night, the DACE closed in on the surface. after dark, March 23rd. During this period the DACE had taken many photographs and made sketches of the coast and surrounding terrain. At 2315, she put off five commandos in a rub- Der boat-distance to the beach one mile. At 0213, March 24th. she put off two more boats with six commandos.
 For the next two days the DACE took pictures of the coast, sighting nothing but hospital ship and an occasional patrol boat.

DACE went to sea for the first time on a short trip to Newport, Rhode Island. She spent a few days there test firing torgedoes, then returned to New London. Prior to her arrival she made her first deep dive, without incident.
 On September 6, 1943, the DACE got underway for Pearl Harbor. She stopped for few days at the Submarine Base, Colon, Canal Zone, then completed her trip.
 On October 3, the USS DACE arrived at Pearl Harbor. For two and half weeks she went through the tests, drills, and exercises pre- scribed by Commander Subma- rines, Pacific Fleet, to prepare her for war. Finally, on October 20, heavily laden with torpedoes, fuel, ammunition and food, the DACE set sail for War Patrol Number One.
 War Patrol Number One
 The USS DACE stopped at Mid way from October 24-27 in order to repair one engine. On October 27, she crossed the 180th meridian for the first time. On the 31st, the barometer started dropping. On November 2, it dropped 18 points in seven hours and the DACE en- countered her first heavy weather.
 On the 4th, she entered her pa- trol area which was off the coast of the southernmost Japanese is- land. For several days she pa- trolled the area submerged in the daytime and surfaced at night.
 First contact was made the night of November 2. while on

Three officers and about ten members of the crew of the DACE were present for the launching. Her prospective commanding off, ficer was Lieutenant Commander J. F. Enright, Naval Academy class of 1883. Her Executive Officer was Lieutenant Commander w. C.. Holman, Class of 1886. Other off cers assigned to the ship were: Lieutenant C. R. Clark, Jr., U. s. N., Engineering Officer; Lieuten- ant H. D. Thorton, U. s. N. R., Gun nery Officer; Lieutenant junior grade) F. P. Thomas, U. s. N, Commissary Officer; Ensign E. T. Jones, U. S. N, Assistant Engi- neering Officer; and Ensign c. c. Erhard, U. s. N. R., Communica- tions Officer.
 On July g, 1943, Captain W. W. Foster of the Electric Boat Com pany, got the DACE underway and brought her alongside the pier at the U. s. Submarine Base, New London. The officers and crew, dressed in blues, waited silently on the dock for their ship. At 17OO, that afternoon, they marched aboard. After brief ceremony the ship was formally handed over to the crew.
 The next two weeks were spent in the New London area.
 Over fifty per cent of the crew were green hands, fresh from Sub- marine School. Only seventeen men had even been on a war pa- trol before. Full advantage had to be taken of this period to organ fze this outfit into coordinated submarine crew.
 On August 19, 1943, the USS

the surface. There seemed to be two large ships and two small ones. The target fired at was sim- liar to the KYAKKO MARU of 6,783 tons. One hit was felt and lots of black smoke poured out of the targets stack.
 The DACE returned for a second attack but this time a large oiler with two escorts loomed up ahead. One of the escorts challenged her. She ignored the challenge and fired more torpedoes-no results. The Japs flashed searchlights and fired more torpedoes-on results. The Japs flashed searchlights and dropped depth charges but the DACE had cleared the area on the surface.
 The patrol continued off the coast of MIKI SAKI. Numerous planes and a few small picket boats were sighted but nothing worthwhile.
 On November II, the USS DACE surfaced early in the evening in the bright moonlight. At 213O, a patrol boat was sighted. The DACE turned away and tried to open the range. The patrol boat now was revealed as a destroyer which commenced chasing. When the destroyer. had closed the DACE to 5000 yards, the submarine fired a spread of torpedoes. The Jap did not make the expected final dive so the DACE submerged fast. The Jap rushed over the top and dropped four depth charges-not close, then continued away at high speed.
 Days of routine patrolling went by. Planes were sighted and evad- ed by diving Small picket boats W ere always present, but no worth while targets were sighted.
 On November IA, she shifted to the southern part of the area and about midnight sighted HACHIJO LIMA about 40 miles away.
 At the break of dawn on the 18th, an aircraft carrier of the SHOKAKU class, and at least three destroyers passed just outside of torpedo range. It was impossible to get closer to them while the boat was submerged.
 On the 18th, at about 1900, while the ship was submerged a tanker and an escort were sighted. Every thing looked good for submerged attack but the Japs became suspi- cious and the tanker turned away. The escort located the DACE and attacked. The first depth charge was close, light bulbs broke, cork flew off the bulkheads, and few cables were pushed further into the ship.
 Within an hour three more patrol boats joined the fun and tried to relocate the DACE. Fourteen more depth charges were dropped-none very close. About 21OO, the pa- trol boats gave up and left the vi- cinity. The DACE surfaced at 2315,

One of the fnest. dessert combi- nations is a delicately favored custard topped with fruit-a de- lightfu1 texture and flavor con- traSt.
 A smooth, creamy custard is not difficult to make if two simple rules are followed. First, cook the custard in the top of a double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. And second, do not overcook.
 Chased apricots are called for in this recipe, although peaches or pears would be equally good. You're never at loss for a good dessert combination when there are several duraglas jars of fruit on hand in the cupboard, ready to open and serve with this easy-to- make custard.
