A paratrooper with the 11th Airborne Division, Apau is in an Engineer company and took part in the mopping-up campaign in Ba-tangas Province, south of Manila. "Even after the street fighting in Manila, with its hundreds of pillboxes," Apau said, "the Ba-tangas campaign was tough. "The Japs had fortified almost every slope and hill and they had dozens of big five-inch naval guns which swept our avenues of approach.

It took lots of artillery, lots of nlanes and one whale of a presumably are Field Marshal Sir Bernard Montgomery, Britain; jwarsnai uregory znuKov, kus-sia. and Gen.

Blanche Leclerc started out to the Victory Club USO on recommendation of her doctor. In a letter received at the editor's desk this week, she had written, "Today, I had three jitter-bug lessons and a swell time meeting such nice people, and as the day ended I noticed that there was a sparkle in my eyes that hadn't been there before" some doctor's prescription! Excerpts from her letter: "I'm a Victory Club USO hostess. I started today and as I entered the club, I almost whistled for I was surrounded by men. Men everywhere, tall ones, short ones, curly-haired ones and ones with a mite of grey over their young ears 'course they really were at first just a blur, for I was "sort of scared" as I wandered around trying to locate somone to offer my services.

"I finally got in line and soon a very pleasant young lady directed me to an elevator with instructions to go to the How interesting for it sounded just like San Francisco. know, 'Top of the Mark' so I packed myself in with more 'uniforms' (they still hadn't come out as individuals) and 'whisk we soon were poured forth on a floor where an orchestra was in full swing with music so good and so very loud that I almost felt like breaking forth into a dance myself you know the kind, the jitterbug's delight. Now I cannot jitterbug myself, but secretly I'd like to try. "I walked on to a nice looking girl with a USO uniform (the real trained kind, pretty and friendly) and asked if I could help. 'How she answered, 'Of course you can.

My goodness, we could use scores of ladies to pour coffee, to help with the buffet table, to play the piano while the boys pour forth into lusty song and just coming up and dancing with the too numerous boys would be such a She explained that the ladies are given a free lunch which is served attractively. I saw slices of cold beef and cold ham which looked 'out of this Beef, I wonder how that tastes. Anyway, soon I had my job. I was to dance with the boys and generally be on the look-out if either the boys or girls need information. "The girls who attend these luncheon dances are doing such a fine job and are having so much fun that I wonder why more girls who work downtown do not come up, lunch and then have two or three dances.

I shnuld think that they would return to their work very much refreshed. "Speaking of acting as an information person, one of the girls asked me if there were an iron in the building, which she could use to press her dress for the dance in the evening, and, do you know what I found, some unthinking boy had carried off the only iron owned by the Victory Club. So now all the boys must press their ties and trousers under the dormitory mattresses. One lonely little iron for hundreds of boys to use and someone had to take it. What a shame! I'm sure it couldn't have been any of the darling boys I met and danced with Maybe somone in Honolulu has a 'spare iron that he could donate to the It's like asking for gold in your bridge-work, but the club would be very grateful, I know.

yes, I danced every dance from 11:15 to 1:15 and pooh poohed the idea that I would be tired the day following. Why the idea, I could remember when I had danced on special occasions all afternoon and all night and never got tired." Oahu Soldier Charges Into Jap Positions WITH THE 24TH INFANTRY (VICTORY) DIVISION ON MINDANAO, (June 3) Technical Sergeant Louis Fernandez (brother of William Fernandez, 940 Ka-liki Street, Honolulu, Hawaii) charged singlehandedly uphill into a nest of Japanese snipers and machine gunners killed three and forced the remainder to flee. Sergeant Fernandez, an acting platoon leader, was spearheading the attack of the famous old 19th Infantry Regiment in an assault on emplaced Japanese artillery pieces which had been shelling troops of this Victory Division on the lowlands. He worked his men expertly through the dense foliage until they were within fifty yards of the guns before the Japanese were aware of their presence. But even as they overran the position, a storm of bullets whipped through the foliage from their right flank.

Men dropped groaning. Sergeant Fernandez wheeled and charged directly into the fire. Slugs nipped the leaves above and to the sides of him, but he kept going, his own gun snarling in answer. The Japanese heard and saw him coming, like an avenging demon and they broke and ran. He potted three.

When his men came panting up the hill behind him they found Fernandez angrily kicking at bushes. The Japs had escaped. They had captured four six-inch naval guns. The almost incredible action occurred on bitterly contested Hill 550 near Davao, an eminence which the Japanese had fortified for three years to protect their most important port in the southern Philippines. By then it was too late for defenses to function.

The Americans charged over the artillery, killed seven enemy soldiers and routed the others. punitive measures to cover all from their caves, he aaaea. The paratrooper's mother, Mrs. Daisy Apau, lives at the 13th Avenue address. GEN.

Pierce to a dictionary for the meaning of the word "pioneer." The editorial quoted an article by Pierce favoring the Japanese Exclusion League and saying that all Japanese must be excluded from the United States, leaving "this land to those who pioneered it." Pioneer Means Foot-Soldier The editorial said that according to the dictionary, pioneer was derived from an old French term meaning foot-soldier and also means "dhe who goes before, preparing the way for others." Stars and Stripes said that men are pioneering for America all over the world today and are foot-soldiers or doughfeet," the origin of Wjhose grandfathers no one questions as they "pioneer' their way" onto beaches in North Africa, Sicily, Italy, Guam, the Philippines, Normandy or Okinawa. Pioneers include the 100th Battalion and the 442nd Regimental combat team, the editorial said.

These are Nisei "pioneers whose feats are legends and whom Mr. Pierce ought to know about." Reviews lOOth's Exploits The editorial reviewed the 100th Battalion as one of the most decorated units in the United States Army and the 442nd for its rescue of the trapped 36th Battalion in France when an American sergeant said to Pfc Sakumoto, "I never thought I'd be so damned happy to see a guy." "The Niseis really pioneered that the editorial concluded. "They really went before, preparing the way for others. American pioneers are funny people, Mr. Pierce they are all sizes and shapes and colors.

By all means let's give America back to them." USO Rainbow Club Open House June 7 The new USO Rainbow Club 375 S.

He said he did not know of any school where the school spirit was "so intense and so lasting," and noted that, "Once a St, Louis boy, always a St. Louis boy, it seems." Turning to interscholastic athletics, Brother Paul said: "It is a sad commentary on our system of education that the athletic teams loom greater in the eyes of students and ex-students than the curriculum. But then I suppose indifference would be worse." Hoped for Gym Brother Paul revealed he had hoped to see before he left the Islands the foundations put down for "our pet dream," a gymnasium, for which $63,000 had been invested in bonds, but said two years after the war the gym should be ready.

"You Old Boys bring joy to your teachers by your success, your good conduct, your fidelity to the principles taught you in the classroom," Brother Paul remarked. Concluding, Brother Paul said: "It has been wonderful knowing all of you and working with you and playing with you. Goodbye and God bless Receives Gifts In behalf of the alumni, Malcolm H.
