Permanent toilets and fountains

by students and teachers at Wash

that the county board of health,

practice of having shows play
there. E. R. Blakeslee, principal Of

Blakeslee pointed out that such
facilities have been available at
Bellamy Park heretofore, but that
permanent toilet and fountain faci-

The field marshal admitted he
had misjudged in not giving ar

landing, although he had done SO
on the two preceding nights.

I looked at a map, the more danger

Signing as If the tension had just

was badly worried until 10 o'clock

Germans Lost 10000
AT Anzio, KesseIring
Says in Interview
By DonieI De Luce
Associated Press Foreign Correspondent

AsSoctcteo PreSs rorei9n correspondent
MARBURG, Germany, Jana. 23.-
Field Marshal Albert Kesselring
says he lost 10000 German troops In
his bitter failure to drive American
and British forces from the Anzio
beachhead in the bloody battle
which began just three years ago
yesterday.
"Anzio was the enemy's epic of
bravery, just as ruined Casino was
ours" said the former German COM
mander in chief in italy in spe-
cial prison camp interview reliving
briefly the hectic Anzio campaign
which started at am. January %,
1914.
During the whole battle of four
months, I had losses of 10000 men,"
he disclosed. "Of these, 5000 were
killed"
Allied casualties have been esti-
mated unofficially as exceeding 50.-
900, of which at least two-thirds
were American.
Germans Held Hills.
"I held the hills and you were ex-
posed on the low plain by the sea,
90 your sacrifices were greater" Kes-
selring said.
But I can say this, If you had
never pitted your divisions in the
Mediterranean, as at Anzio-Nettuno,
you would not have won a victory in
the west. You profited by your ex-
periences. We did not"
Kesselring curtly disposed of the
old argument whether the Allied
force, once it got easily ashore,
should have dared to fan out into
the Alban hills, and even 20 miles to
Rome, on D day itself.
Presumably because of "too much
caution" the beachhead commander,
American Maj. Gen. John P. Lucas,
was replaced by Maj. Gen. Lucian K.
Truscott within a month.
Kesselring.s a veteran strategist,
said, 1T woud have been the Anglo
Americans doom to over-extend
themselves. Z was quickly gathering
my first five divisions to attack. The
landing force was initially weak,
only division or so of infantry, and
without armor. 1t was a half-meas-

"The excellent coordination Of
the enemy air force and naval gum
fire with the forces on land created
q decisive effect"
Kesselring described as "Ausge-
zeichnet" - distinguished - all the
elements including the American
rangers of the original beachhead
force, and those that came after the
American-Canadian special service
force, the American 1st Armored
Division, and the British 5th In
fantry Division.
I'VE felt we were opposed by
equals. Our enemy was of the high

Johnny barked orders, and the
crew took the Norral in tow. Pete
gazed at the ice cliffs through the
mist. Better abandon the tubs
and take to the berg" he advised.
ANY idea how far east that big
ice extends?" Johnny asked as the
Orea got under way with its tow.
Reimer shook his head. TOO
much fog. But she's a big one."
We've got ten minutes-maybe
fifteen before we have to decide
about abandoning. Well take a
look east. West is too far to 60"
1mpeded by the crippled chaser,
the Orea made only ten knots.
Johnny peered into the mist, try
ing to be casual. but lump rose
in his throat. Valerie stood close to
him on the bridge. her shoulder
touching his - comforting.
len minutes passed. Fog and
ice. The murmur of the pack was
greedy to port. Johnny sighed. "All
right. Prepare to abandon"
He sighted a slope in the tower
ing ice cliffs where a section of the
lip had crumbled away. leaving a
sloping ramp. He moved to the
harpoon gun. 'I'll shoot line over
the top, and that'll give US safety
rope for the climb" he said. He
spoke to the wireless operator:
Give the Vulcan our position, and
ask them to look for us on the
south side of the berg -"
He quit talking. Valerie had
uttered little. prayerful sound
and was pointing. Johnny had seen
it at the same instant. Through the
mist, the wall of ice seemed to
have vanished just beyond the
point Johnny had indicated. No
body breathed as the O,ca drove
steadily ahead. Then they all began
to sigh at once. The ice cliffs ended
ahead. Beyond was sea room,
though still shrouded by fog.
Johnny gave hushed order, and
the OrcG swerved southwark.
Another ten minutes, and they
were sure. They had rounded the
east end of the Barrier berg, and
were heading south into open
waters. Just in time. From the fog
astern came steady thunder. The
berg and the polar pack had met.
Valerie walked to where Johnny
stood. Her face was alight.
Listen" Johnny said, his voice
stumbling. THAT picture showed
you is fake. I,made up that yarn
about Jenny Sloan."
"I've known that for days"
"Huh?"
She was smiling. why. that girl
in the picture has on a dress that's
been out of fashion for three or
four years. Also, she's wearing a
wedding ring. I was sure it wasn't
you she was marrying, Johnny.
Neither of you looked that way"
She was standing very close.
Johnny kissed her - successfully
and with cooperation. II never did
like being tabled as the fatherly
type" he said.
you're certainly not that type
right now" she gasped. BE your
self some more"
