Army motion picture equipment to have a training schedule, and then-only recognized training films could be used.” Cpl Albert G.

"The best tip I can give subscribers who must have their calls completed in the minimum amount of time," Lt Damp said, "is to give the operator the number instead of requesting information to find the listing." 50 DELTANS ADMITTED TO EUROPEAN SCHOOLS A quota of 50 students has been received by DBS for courses at civilian institutions in Paris, London, Glasgow and Birmingham.

Communists, Socialists, Radical Socialists, Republicans and Monarchists lined the square side by side, applauding and frowning as victories and defeats were announced. Monday saw a return to "normalcy" as cafés reopened and GIs, bringing an unquenchable thirst, drained the two-day reserve of cognac, vermouth and beer.

Seine, sparked by backfield ace Bartholomew, scored in the second and fourth periods, making both attempts at conversion. "King" Cole, DBS quarterback, and "Sluggar" Ribar, crack lineman, were both out of the game before the end of the first half due to injuries and their absence was noticeable throughout the second half.

Brightening the local redeployment picture, meanwhile, was the announcement that seven converted aircraft carriers, capable of carrying between 1,100 and 3,600 men each, would dock here early in November while in New York Adm Jonas H.

Meanwhile, the Cunard Liner Queen Mary, now transporting 11,500 U.S. troops to the States every 20 days, was scheduled to be placed in dry-dock at Southampton, England on Thursday for four or five days to scrape barnacles and make periodic repairs. Officials said this would not affect redeployment schedules. But three Victory ships scheduled to return troops to the U.S. during October have been turned over to the British

Some of these trigger-happy guys were peacetime competitors but most are GIs who learned to shoot a rifle in basic training and practiced on Krauts from Casablanca to Berlin. A first-rate automatic man in any show is Lt Col Joseph McCaslin from Paris. His 580 out of 600 with the .45 was no accident!

rod and patch. He very probably is the most versatile gun man in the ETO. If they ever have a contest where entrants must fire both rifles and pistols, our money will be on Jury. Sgt Jerry Snow of the Calais Public Relations Office tells this one: "I dropped out to the range yesterday with a Belgian .38 I picked up in Germany with the 13th Armored. After firing a couple of clips my luck wasn’t too good so I began to blame the gun, the ammo and the wind. Capt Jury had never fired a Belgian job before so
Capt Jury had never fired a Belgian job before so he asked for a try. It was some try—he fired an 88 out of a possible 100." 1st Lt Sam H.

La favorite, après souper, renversée sur une de ces mignonnes causeuses du dix-huitième siècle et balançant négligemment sa sandale au bout de son pied découvert, aurait interpellé son royal amant « Dis donc, La France, ton café f. le camp » C'est de la France elle-même, hélas qu'on pourrait, dans les mêmes termes, dire qu'elle prend

Le gui est une si saisissante et si complète interpellation, sur la politique générale des gouvernants espagnols, a cessé d'être applicable à nos malheureux voisins. Avec quelques légères retouches, ce morceau d'éloquence conviendrait exactement à nos propres misères nationales. Nul ne l'entendra désormais, à la Comédie Française, sans en faire l'affligeante remarque. Et si, d'aventure, quelque membre du trente-huitième cabinet de la république, dissimulé dans la baignoire réservée à ces puissants d'un jour,
