them to bomb and strafe the Dagrua airfield. It was a tough nsission. Jap fighters crowded the formation as it approached Dagua, hugging the treetops. Zeros picked on Cheli particularly. His plane caught fire Just before the formation came over the larRet.

"Cheli knew it was on fire. He could have pulled up and bailed out," his fellow flyers said. "We were flying so tightly, however, that if he had done so he would have broken up the formation and ruined the attack, besides exposing others to isolated interception. Cheli undoubtedly realized that, and pressed his attack ferociously. His parachute bombs dropped among the Jap aircraft; he kept his guns blazing from one end of the field to the other, doing tremendous destruction.

By that time his plane was in a bad way and his guns were white hot." "Lieutenant William Pittman tried desperately to save Cheli. He pulled up out of formation head on for a Zero, exposing himself to the whole pack. Lightnings rescued him. But Cheli was beyond help. As he turned out to sea he called to his wingman to take over.

He put the plane down. Pittman said it seemed to explode when itjiit the water." P. S. Trumbower Host to Waist Co. Employes More than 400 Nazareth Waist Co.

Easton Police Arrest Pair In Swindle John Durkin, alias John F.

Austin, and Narcizo Perich, alias J. R. Milton, 55, were charged with larceny and trickery Thursday by Captain H. J. Menikheim of the Easton police force before Alderman R.

Raymond Ryan, Easton, for allegedly perpetrating a hoax whereby they robbed John Radich, 52. a Hunterdon county, N. chicken farmer of $2,500. Captain Menikheim yesterday had detainers sent to Harrisburg, where the men are under arrest in charges of conspiracy to cheat and defraud and larceny by trickery. Mr.

Radich. in an account given to the police, stated that the two men went to his farm and persuaded he and his wife to come to a hotel in Easton, where they were induced to invest their money in an alleged horse race. After the money was supposedly lost on this race, it is stated, Durkin and Milton promised to repay the Radiches within 90 days. The stage for the alleged hoaxing of the couple was set at their farm, where Durkin assumed the position as a "buyer" for a "Mr. Stone," owner of a gold mine in Canada.

While riding in an elevator of an Easton hotel, Durkin and Mr. and Mrs. Radich found a wallet containing a $500 check and clipipngs indicating Perich was a racing promoter. They found Perich in a room in the hotel and it was there that the couple was persuaded to bet their money on the horse race. An exactly similar attempt was made to defraud John Polt.

of West Portal, N. J. real estate man with whom the Radiches listed their' property for sale but Polt refused to "bite" according to police. Polt was induced to come to a hotel in Bethlehem to talk about sale of a property for $68,000 in New Jersey, and a wallet was found in an elevator, but he became suspicious and the alleged game went no farther with him. Police said the Radiches identified pictures of Durkin and Perich sent by Harrisburg police as those of the men who victimized them.

Ray Bastido, Hunterdon county detective and state police of Flemington barracks investigated the case with Captain Menikheim. Kiwanians Hear Capt. A.

Seek Applicants For Course Final opportunity to register for the free pre-induction radio course to begin at Lehigh University September 20, will be offered men in this area Friday afternoon and evening September 3. Applicants are to report for interviews at Lehigh Friday from 12 to 2 p. m. or in the evening from 7 to 9 o'clock.

The afternoon group will go to room 512, Packard Laboratory; the evening group will register in room 212 in this same building. In answer to a query received frequently since the announcement of the course, Dr. Cornelius Brennecke, associate professor of electrical engineering, points out that those taking the training are not inducted into the army at the outset of the course nor is enlistment compulsory at the completion of the work. However, the radio study is specifically planned to prepare those who expect to be drafted after the first of the year, for assignment with the Army Air Force in communications work or radio work in any of the services. To qualify for the free course one must be a high school graduate and have had at least two years of high school mathematics.

It is expected that the trainee faces induction in the next few months either because he is now 3-A and will be reclassified or because he is now temporarily deferred. The course will meet three times a week for 16 weeks. Two meetings a week are given over to lecture and recitation and the third session is devoted entirely to shop and laboratory work. While only two or three more students are needed to fill the class to its limit of 32 trainees, the University is accepting all applications and will select from the list those people most likely to profit from the training and subsequently render the best service to the Army Air Force.
