This plane figured in a ground collision when a Taylorcraft, flown by Byron Dlskin, swung into the primary trainer at the edge of the north-south runway. Manager Soukup said the Taylor craft was badly damaged and might not be restored to service. Diskin was slightly hurt in the crash. Occupants of the oth er plane, were uninjured. TO SING" Q 2 ALLIED PLANES POUND ENEMY BASES, SHIPS (Continued from Page One) Japanese fighter planes were shot down and Ihreo damaged. All allied aircraft returned to their bases although some were damaged slightly. , Lints Protected Meantime, naval units pro tected the allied communication lines and escorting supply vessels to the occupation forces and the army and shore based aircraft continued to attack the enemy air bases and harbors, the navy reported. Outcome of the battle for the island bases wag expected to de cide whether the Japs retain the stepping stones to attacks on Australia and New Zealand or whether the United Nations at tain a base for futuro offenses against enemy positions. Further indication of the pro gress in the Solomons came from an English war correspondent, who cabled his London paper from Sydney that the Americans "have or soon will have com plete control of Tulagt Island," a major point of attack. So strongly entrenched were the marines, he added, that only "the heaviest reinforcements" could dislodgo them. At the same time, he declared that the Japanese apparently were pre pared to risk a big naval action to hold the Solomons and the fighting would continue for weeks. "The navy's statement on the conflict was that: "The task of consolidating the shore positions now held by United States marines In the i Solomon Islands is progressing satisfactorily. "Naval units are engaged In protecting our lines of communi cations and escorting supply ves sels to our occupying forces. "United States army and alli ed shore-based craft are continu ing to attack Japanese air bases and ship concentrations In enemy-held harbors."
