Cleveland Race
Won by Gunder
Cleveland, March 24 lPi Gun
der Hagg, the Swedish distance
runner, was a winner without
much prestige today.
He won his first mile on an
indoor track last night after three
previous failures, but he did it
without the man who had raced
to triumph on each of those oc
casionslittle Rafferty of 'New
York. His time last night for the
Universe, Bulletin mile at the
Knights of Columbus relays was
4:16.7. He topped that mark in
running second to Rafferty at
Chicago last Saturday when his
time was 4:15.5..
Hagg wanted to win last nignt
and he wanted to do it in faster
time than he did, but he wasn't
able to spur his competitors on
to a faster pace. Hoping to in
crease the tempo, he even looked
up over his shoulder during the
first half mile and beckoned his
four competitors to "speed up."
Because the field wasn't equal
to a faster pace, Hagg didn't
seem to be able to increase his
own pace sufficiently to finish
with more than a mediocre mark.
After he .beckoned the laggards,
Rudy Simms of New York moved
ahead of him briefly but after
two laps Hagg went in front to
stay.

Keg of Bend
Nails Located
In Nazi Land
In the refuse of a bomb and
wrecked German town there was
located by an American sergeant
a keg of nails bearing the nota
tion: "George Cliilds Hardware,
Bend, Oregon." '
Such Is the information in a let
ter from Lt. Katherine Ferrell to
her mother, Mrs. B. Ferrell, for
merly of Bend and now in Port
land. With the exception of an old
school home in which officers set
up their quarters, the keg of Bend
nails was about the only thing in
tact in the German town, Lt. Fer
rell mentioned.
George J. Childs, operator of
the local store whose nails were
found in the city debris, believes
he knows how the hardware got
into Germany. He recalls that in
connection with the Fourth corps
maneuvers In the Bond area in
1944 he sold a considerable quan
tity of merchandise to the army.
Some of the divisions that trained
here are now lighting in Germany
and advance units are apparent
ly still using the Bend nails.

Billy Holcomb in
Bastogne Battle
With the 101st Airborne Divi
sion on the Western Front, March
24 Within two days after the
101st airborne division pulled into
Bastoene shortly after the start
of the battle of the bulge, lt was
completely sealed from outside
help. When the Germans demand
ed Surrender, acting division com
mander, Brigadier General An
thony C. McAullffe answered:
"Nuts!" ,
The defense was to attack con
tinuously. At one point, the am
munition was 11 rounds to a gun.
No planes were able to break
through a low Veiling to. bring
support and supplies. There were
too many wounded for the medics
to handle.
Groun Encircled
But seven days after the encir
clement, the battle of Bastogne
pocket ended. A corridor had been
established with our own troops.
The. 101st airborne had completed
another chapter in Its historic
march through the battles of
world war II.
In addition to participating In
the battle of Bastogne, the 50Gth
parachute infantry regiment
played a major role in the success
of the Normandy and Holland
campaigns. It took pnrt In the fall!
of Carentan and later liberated
Eindhoven, in' Holland. It twice
took the measure of the elite Ger
man 6th parachute regiment in at
taining victories in France and
Holland.
Members of the unit who parti
cipated in Bastogne envelopment
Included Pvt. Billy A. Holcomb,
of Terrebonne, Ore.

A 90-minute artillery barrage

"The enemy succeeded In break

the great masses of war material
employed," the Berlin account
said.

hemmed into a pocket of 300
square miles and that at Gdynia,
75 square miles.
