Crew Of Navy Plane
That Sta|ked Typhoon
TELLS Of Two DAMAGE
By the kssocioted Press

GUAM, Oct. 11.-Eleven tired
crewmen of Navy weather recon-
naissance plane told today how they
went stalking a typhoon and wound
up having it all but blow them right
off Two Jima.
The typhoon swept westward
across Two Jima Thursday morning,
driving the population into the old
japanese caves, and damaging in
stallations with winds higher than
100 miles an hour.
1t. Comdr. E. B. Bower, Oakland,
Calf, the pilot, said the plane took
of from Guam Tuesday morning to
track down the typhoon. After
reaching the disturbance, the plane
bored right through to the center,
and then spent the next two hours
getting out again.
After flying at attitudes up to
10000 feet, the plane escaped and
circumnavigated the typhoon, esti-
mating its diameter at 300 miles.
Wind Gauge Needle Broken.
The fierce winds had damaged
the stabilizer, and the plane was
forced to land on Two. Repairs were
hurried as the barometer dropped
and the winds increased
Before the crew could get the
plane ready to take off, the cross
winds had become too severe. The
crew tied the plane down and pre-
pared to ride out the big blow
At $50 pm. Wednesday, every
one on the tiny island except those
in communications, weather and
other essential commands were Or
dered to the old caves for safety.
Emergency rations and water were
distributed. Winds then had gone
up to 100 miles.
At am. Thursday, the typhoon
struck in full fury, breaking the
needle on the wind gauge after it
showed 160 miles an hour.
Comdr. Bower said visibility
dropped to around $50 yards, and
within a few minutes he saw the
flight tower on the air strip topple.
S-Ton Truck Blown Into Sea.
One crew member said he saw a
loaded sandbag blown from one end
of the flight strip to the other. An
other said he saw a 3-ton radar
truck blown from the air strip into
the raging sea. Comdr. Bower said
his was the only one of six planes
on the air strip that escaped serious
damage.
At pm. the typhoon began to
abate to mere 10 miles on hour,
he said, and a few hours later Two

Hursey Rates an Even Chance
Against Bell, Pilot Insists

Mel Stevenson, Smuggy Hursey S
manager, figures his boy has better
than an even chance against hard
hitting Tommy Bell in next Mon
day nights fight at Griffith Sta
dium. Most fight followers give
Bell the edge because of his expert
'ence against a better class of fight
ers plus his demonstrated power as
"a puncher. He's rated right at the
head of the list of those eligible for
a crack as Ray Robinson's welter-
weight title.
I'VE know we have a hard fight
next Monday. but we know We can
win" says Stevenson. "Smuggy's S
young and he's strong and for a
year now he hasn't met anybody
who really extended him. AS for
that last draw against Danny
Kapilow, who Smuggy previously
had knocked out in one round,
Stevenson explains that away by
saying that Smuggy was off form,
overweight and overworked.
His best weight is around 153.
That's where he's strong and sharp.
The lighter he is the faster he Is

Fridays Game
To Give Good Line on
Western Gridmen

Western is one OF the teams
counted on to be in the scrap for
this years District high school foot
ball title. The Red Raiders have a
pretty good first team of veterans
and promising newcomers. If they
can get past the first few games
without injuries while the boys are
gaining experience they should make
it interesting for everybody else.
A good line on their chances will
be given on Friday when they open
their schedule with a non-series test
at Washington-Lee. The Generals
as usual have a strong team and If
the Red Raiders 60 at all well
against them it will give a tre-
mendous boost to Western stock.
Most of the experience is in the
backfleld, with George Holmes
figuring as the big gun. He passes
and runs with the best and is we'll
remembered for the three touch
downs he scored in one game last
year. Don Strain, the T formation
quarterback, also passes well, These
boys earned mention in All-High
selections last year. Rounding oat
what probably will be the starting
backfield are Jack Leadbetter and
Norm Wacker, giving Coach Fred
Mulvey four lettermen in the scor-
ing department.
Bob Glasgow, another backfield
veteran, has been shifted to end
to take advantage of his speed and
pass-catching ability. Bob is the
squads best kicker and probably will
be shifted to the backheld on punt
plays.
The line has fair weight for high
schools, with 190-pound Len Fay,
newcomer, the heaviest. His
brother Ken is holdover and both
probably will be used as starting
tackles. Best of the guards seem
to be Bill Prinz and Larry Hines,
both with some football experience,
while the other end position Is a
battle between Ed Sylvester and
Dave Williams. Fitz Woodrow, a
reserve guard last season, goes as
center this time.
School doesn't open until next
week, but student tickets for Fri
days game at Washington n-Lee can
be purchased at the school office
from 9 am. to pm. tomorrow.
