Nazi Tanks Hit Mines

Stalingrad led to the assignment

German tanks hit a Soviet mine
field. Soviet fighters swept up to
shoot down many dive-bombers

other nazl aircraft quickly took
their places.

Pee-Wee Crown
Won by Yankees;
Giants Lose 13-11
The Yankees won the Pee-Wee
Softball championship here last
night by taking the third and de
cisive game In the little world
series, arranged by Al Flegel,
sponsor of the Pee-Wee league.'
The Yankees, with a sustained at
tack, won the game 13 to 11 after
the Giants apparently had clinch
ed a victory with an eight-run at
tack in the fourth Inning.
The Yanks scored in all except
the fifth inning, and, after being
batted out of the lead in the
fourth inning when the Giants
went in front 10 to 7, came back
with a four-run splurge in the
sixth to win the game.
Gerretsen proved the big stick
in the Yankee attack, pounding
out three hits, a homer, double
and single. DeBernardi, Coen,
and Nichols each poled out two
hits durjng the course of the
game. For the Giants, Bashford
and Baker each secured a double
and single to lead their squad in
tne nitting department.
Following the game, which
marked the end of the competi
tion for the season, the Yankees,
who by virtue of winning their
three games became entitled to
an lee cream feed, invited the los
ers to share the treat with them,
and both squads will be enter
tained at 3:30 p. m. Sunday at
the Flegel home.
Flegel expressed appreciation
for assistance given by E. S. Mc-
Clain, Dr. G. C. Finlay, Al and
Clyde Hammond, W. H. Gerret
sen, Howard Applcgato, Ward H.
Cummings, Paul Morgan and
Charles V. Stanton, in handling

Journal Notes Long Life
Of Douglas National Bank
Only three Oregon banks still
doing business were founded be
fore the Douglas National bank
of Roseburg, which, with the First
National bank at Baker, and the
First National bank at Eugene,
was founded in 1883, according
lb a survey recently made by
Coast Banker, the banking jour
nal of the Twelfth Federal Re
serve district, which embraces the
seven western states.
The bank, organized as the
Douglas County bank, was pur
chased in 1S101 by R. A. and J. H.
Booth, the present management.
Eight years later the name was
changed to The Douglas Nalional
bank.

osevelt's 11132 and 1936 cam
paigns, but balked at the .bird

nomination.
Roosevelt Parries Query
When asked today what effect
Bennett's nomination would have
on Ihe conduct of the war effort,
President Roosevelt, apparently
prepared for the question, read
an excerpt from an article ihis
morning by Mark Sullivan, news
paper columnist.
The article referred to a press
conference held by Robert P. Pat
terson, undersecretary of war, in
which a reporter sought com
ment on the Commando raid on
France.
"The question was asked in a
manner which suggested that the
questioner really did not have
much hope of an answer," the
president quoted Sullivan.. "By
thus setting his expectations be
low his hopes, he escaped dis
appointment. Mr. Patterson said
merely that lie had no worth
while comment."
Smiling, Mr. Roosevelt contin
ued to read:
"If Mr. Patterson has no copy
right on those four short words
no worth while comment' they
could be advantagously used by
some other Washington officials
who face press conferences."
Party Split Foreseen
Senator Norris (Ind Neb), long
a supporter of the president, said
lie thou;; lit the New York con
vention fight would have a "bad
effect on the country" because :t
would bo taken as a "very -.severe
slap at the president."
"It means the democratic twrh
will be badly split up," he added.
"As for 1!M4 tne New York del
egation might be for Farley for
the democratic nomination for
president or be Farley-controlled,
but that does no; mean he would
control the rest of the jtate del-
: egations."
A democratic senator from the
south, commenting anonymously,
'said the Bennett nomination
: "makes Jim Farley a national
figure in his own right. "
i "It also means." he added, "that
the 1944 delegation to the nation
al convention from New York
i will be either controlled by Far
ley or lie an open delegation. It
! might even be for Farley."
GOP Victory Forecast.
1 Senator Bridges (RNH1, a
candidate for his party's pres
idential nomination in 1940, com
mented: "It leads me to believe we'll
elect a republican governor of
New York. There will be such a
row among the democratics ihat
they'll cut each other's throat's."
The republicans meet at Sara
toga Srlngs next week to se
lect an opponent for Bennett
and the nomination is expected
to go to Thomas E. Dewey, the
former "racketbustin" district
attorney of New York county.
Raid on Amiens Bares
Nazis' Air Weakness
(Continued from page 1.)
Wednesday as a day of allied tri
umph from every angle as a vic
tory on the field Itself, as a help
to soviet Russia, as a step forward
in the whole master plan of the
United Nations.
A communique summarizing
the raid called it a "successful
demonstration of coordination of
all three services" land, sea and
air.
Losses Summarized
Although the official announce
ment labelled the attack merely a
"reconnaissance in force," it said
the raid had a "vital part" In al
lied policy. Here was its profit
and loss account:
Gains:
Ninety-one German planes defi
nitely destroyed with "about
twice that number probably de
stroyed or damaged;"
Two gun batteries destroyed;
A radio location station de
stroyed; Two small vessels sunk;
Heavy casualties Inflicted on
the Germans;
Prisoners captured.
Losses:
Ninety-eight allied planes lost;
The destroyer Berkeley, 90-1
tons, sunk;
"Fairly largo number" of land
ing craft destroyed;
The loss of some tanks which
the attackers were ordered to
blow up;
Heavy casualties although there
still was no official figure on the
invaders' numbers or their ratio
of losses. The communique called
it simply "a large military
force." .
