Luzon Jim Head used to hunt with falcons in Sau di Arabia. Now he hunts with war dogs on Luzon. And this time it's not birds he's hunting but Japs. I was chewing the rag with hi.n here. A German shcplurd named Captain lay under the col on w hich Head sat. Somebody toss ed a cigaret on Ihe floor without putting it out. Head spoke softly: "Cap tain!" The dog emerged and stood attentively. "Put out Ihe cigaret." said Head. Captni 1 sniffed and looked around, spotted the smokitg butt, slapped a paw on it, and the deed was done. Captain has other tricks, but lb-ad emphasizes that this stutf is cxtrncuiYiculnr and has noth ing to do v.ith the war-dog busi ness. Head Fir.il. Lieut. James S.

Pitcher Floyd Stromme was breezing along behind a 4-1 lead when the roof fell in. The Sol ons pounded out six markers on as many hits. Bov Joyce of the San Francisco Seals also rucked up his 11th vic tory as Lefty O'Doui's club swamped Seattle, 6-1. Tlw Seals rapped three Rainier pitchers for 16 blows, including a triple, double und single by Johnny Cavulli. Outfielder Neill Sheri dan snapped out of his slump with u duubh: und two singles.

Up here it has been tougher. The wind currents in these mountains are tricky. I've had five men wounded, nil in the Bnlete area." Some infantry officers have a high regai J for llv war dogs' work. Others aren t "believors, Jim explained. Most of the dogs were donal 'd to the army quartermaster coips. The dog oorps is a quartermaster unit, but those elements sent to this theater have been transferred to the infantry. So H;'ad and his men are entitled to wear the combat inlantry badge and are proud of it. Captain was donated by a resi dent of Oakland, Calif., who had given him that name. This pla toon's dogs are all German shep herds or crosses of that strain except for one Norwegian elk hound. There used to be an Irish setter, but he was killed by a land mine on Moiolai. Jim Head is 29. He has a wife and two children. He did pe troleum exploration work in Ara bia in 19.W-40 for the California Arabian Standard Oil co.

"She didn't handle too well,, tet any body bu' me." Jim said. He also used to train horses. The war dogs are fed C ra tions.
