BIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNB Thunday, Juna 22. 1944 LIKE GIGANTIC Germans Send "Ball" Hurt ling at England but Never Score Play for Keeps By Jack FrankUh United Press War Correspondent Southern England, June 22 U.R) Imagine a giant pinball machine covering hundreds of square miles. Every time the ball lights a bumper there is the flash of an explosion. Scores of miles away a little band of Germans is playing the game and your home is one of the bompers they are trying to light Or at least you are sure they are aiming for you. And the "ball" Is one of the German robot bombs. Play for Keeps But there Is a difference be tween this arislv eame and a peaceful one in the corner drug' tnr Thl nn i "for keens." There Is one consolation. The Germans can't see the bumpers when they light and they never know the score. TViia same nf wrecked homes and churches, of sudden death and mangled bodies has been go ing on for nearly a week now nri millions of English civilians are In "front lines" again, as close to danger as their fathers, husbands, and sons across the channel in Normandy. All of us learned quickly to adapt ourselves to this new life ,w nttnrlt. It doesn't take tnno tn riRvelnn the techniaue for diving flat on your stomach preferably under a table and as far away from windows and mirrors as possible when you hear the roar oi an approatuuie bomb. Peculiar Sound A motorcycle or truck motor will make you prick up your ears for a moment Din wnen you hear the flying bomb you know by Its unmistakable "washing machine" sound, especially when it is flying too close for comfort. When you hear the motor go silent, look out the window and tea the robot bomb diving to earth a couple of hundreds yards away, you forget completely how ridiculous you must look as you dive for cover. Not since the blitz have the English civilians been under such constant attack. The robot bomb offensive bppnn lnt ThnrHy night and although there are oc casional lulls when no jet-propelled explosives fall in your own district for hours, you never can be sure night or day when the next one will be coming your way.
