Hitler Views Biggest German Army Maneuvers
Most Ambitious
Battle Practice
Since Days of ’14
With camouflaged machine-gun
ners crouched at his feet, Realm
leader Adolf Hitler of Germany sur
veys the “battlefield” in Southern
Germany during the Reich’s biggest
war maneuvers since the days of
1914. The battle games were held
near Berlin. Chancellor Hitler flew
his own airplane to the maneuvers
and on several occasions watched
the progress of the contending
forces from the air. The general
staff of the Reich’s army thanked
the realm leader for permitting the
holding of the maneuvers, declaring
that they were the most comprehen
sive in more than 20 years. At
about the same time, the Red army
of Russia was holding its annual
autumn maneuvers.

Coach Leonard Sachs of Loyola university, Chicago, moved a piano
onto the playing field to see if he could put some “swing” into his back-
field. His contention is that football is a matter of speed and timing, and
timing is a matter of rhythm and unison, so Coach Sachs pounds out
a little swing music as his players practice punting and broken field
running. The team is regarded as one of the strongest put in the field
in recent years by Loyola and is expected to win a good share of its
games.
