Community Chest Drives Toward Quick Wind-up Miller Optimistic As Leaders Prepare For Final Reports Nearing the goal of $69,144, Community Chest campaign countribu-tions Saturday had hit $63,607.32, and Mayor Tom Miller, general chairman, said that the outlook was good for a quick wind-up.

Wednesday has been set as the deadline for getting the subscrip tion cards in, and by that, time campaign officials hope that the goal set for the year will have been passed. "We feel optimistic," Mayor Miller said Saturday. "It looks like a good year for the Chest. The people of Austin are more attentive to the needs of those people who must have help." V. T.

To Be Heard In addition to the $63,607.32, which is cash on hand, there is $2,025 in pledges in sight from the University of Texas division, which turned in a partial report Saturday. Dean W. R. Woolrich, in charge of that division, said that last year $5,000 was raised from this source and that it looked like more would come in this year. "Everybody, from the buildings and grounds workingmen to heads of department, is showing more enthusiasm," Dean Woolrich commented, Theaters 100 Per Cent The students, who have been engrossed in a campus political campaign, will be organized next Thursday for their part in the Chest drive.

Mayor Miller said that local Interstate theater employes came in 100 per cent Saturday with $305.96.

i ft 5 Bible Texas Keeps Up Slashing Win String Longhorn Backs Reel Off Long Runs; Porker Passes Get Two By WELDON HART American-Statesman Staff The Texas Longhorns were too many and a lot too much for the Arkansas Razorbacks here Saturday. They scored twice in the first three minutes and four times more in the next 57, and when some 000 touchdown sated fans left shadow-filled Memorial stadium the scoreboard read: Texas 48, Arkan sas 14. It was one of the most conclusive victories in Southwest conference history, this opening gesture of Dana Bible's spead-soaked, three-deeo outfit toward the '41 cham pionship. It compared in decisiveness with Arkansas' 42-6 verdict over Texas in 1938. But the Razorbacks made a better scrap of it here Saturday than the Longhorns did that gloomy day.

They simply couldn't catch Texas' fleet backs when sharp, murder ous line-blocking blasted them into the open. Four of Texas' seven touchdowns came on runs longer than 40 yards. Crain and Doss Go Jack Crain and Noble Doss skittered 51 and 43 before the late customers had found their seats. In the third quarter Doss, looking great, went 44 for another touch down. Mickey Mayne, a reserve full back who had never realized his potentialities at Texas, cranked up in the fourth period and slashed 44 yards for the second team's only score.

The regulars made their third touchdown on a 20-yard pass from R. L. Harkins to Mai Kutner, who for the fourth straight week turned in a brilliant game at right end. Third String Second Best Little Walton Roberts, the next Jack Crain, made short darts of seven and one for the other two scores. Roberts' so-called "third team" outshone Spec Sanders' "second team" conclusively.

The second-stringers allowed both Arkansas touchdowns, and Mayne's jaunt was their only scoring move. With Capt. Pete Layden in uniform but not participating, the Longhorns shrugged off the absence of his nine-yard-average plunging and rolled up a net of 401 yards rushing a fairly phenomenal total in any league. The Razorbacks, thrown many times for losses, had a deficit of 19. Oddly, Arkansas led in first downs, 14 to 12.

A reason: Texas' touchdown plays did not count as. first downs. Good Pass Attack True to the best traditions of Fred Thomsen's teams, the Porkers came up with a brilliant passing attack and. a young passer fit to follow Dwight Sloan, Jack Robbins. Kay Eakin, Harold Hamberg and other renown heavers from Hog-ville.

David Paul Jones was his name, and he is a sophomore from Fort Smith, Ark. Mostly on his accurate, well-protected tosses, the Razorbacks got 141 yards on 10 completions and worked up both their touchdowns. Also outstanding was the Arkansas tackle play, particularly that of Co-Capt. Jeff Coats on the right side. He was in a lot of plays.

Max Starcke, general manager of the Lower Colorado River authority, Saturday was informed in advices from Washington that the Defense Plant corporation had made available an additional allotment for expansion and improvement in design of the plant that is to be built by the Union Potash company to transform Central Texas dolomite into metallic magnesium for defense uses. Originally, the allotment for the magnesium plant here was and Saturday's additional allotment raised the committment to $12,601,347 for additional facilities to be located at Austin and Carlsbad, N. M.

The Lower Colorado River authority will furnish low cost power to the Union Potash company, when the plant is ready for operation. II Eight Russian Armies Said Obliterated Hitler Asserts His Forces Are Stacking Up Great Victory By the Associated Presi Germany sent new tank armies into the roaring battle for Moscow Sunday in a drive to smash all Soviet resistance before winter storms already sweeping across the Muscovite plain hold the nazi legions snowbound. Moscow radio broadcasts told of the desperate urgency of the new German push even as Berlin proclaimed theismashing of Red Marshal Timosnenko's grand army of the center and a breathless zero-hour expectancy gripped the Pacific in the wake of Japan's cabinet shake-up. 'Winter Early roundabout reports that the Russians had recaptured Orel and Kalinin were not confirmed in the Soviet radio announcer declared jubilantly in a midnight broadcast. "The battleground in the past few hours has been covered with a thick carpet of snow." He added, though, that Moscow's situation remained serious.

Axis Tartners Together Meanwhile a strong Japanese attitude in the Pacific and a strong German attitude in the Atlantic indicated the axis partners were ready to make the most of German gains on the continent. The new government of Premier Gen. Eiki Tojo, Japan's military strong man, took office in Tokyo with a pledge to settle the China war quickly, and answer the Rising Sun empire's problems with "actionnot words." Chins professed to smell gunpowder in the new government's policies. Washington took a wait and see tack. 8 Armies Annlhllaled Introduced by radio fanfares, a special German communique declared that eight F.ussian armies, perhaps a million and a quarter of Marshal Timoshenko's troops, had been annihilated in the gigantic encirclement battle west of Moscow.

The battle was officially declared completed except for a mop-up of small, scattered red army forces. But the red banner still flew over the Kremlin and Russia was declared to be ready to hifld out in the eastern vastnesses even if the cipitnl should go under. 150 Divisions Ready The British radio asserted Russia had at least 150 divisions. Some 2,500,000 soldiers, standing as reserves behind the front and ready for defense of the rest of Russia and continuation of the war. Britain set herself for any quick change in direction of the tremendous eastern conflict.

Brigadier Baron Henry Page Croft, parliamentary undersecretary for the war office, declared that the Iranian frontier was vital to Britain and that the Germans almost certainly would strike toward the Caucasus ports of Batum and Baku. The Iranian frontier, he said, was Important in defending Baku and in denying to Germany the road to Egypt, India arid the East. A Russian broadcast heard in London said the Germans were throwing "enormous forces" into the battle for the capital, but Russia was playing heavily upon winter to defeat the German push. "The winter will come and Mos- must remain and will remain soviet Moscow the radio said. Heavy Losses Both sides lost heavily in Saturday's fighting in the Vyazma sector.

125 miles west of Moscow and "hour by hour the battle grows in intensity," the broadcast said. Earlier, London had said the German drive seemed definitely slowed. The reports said that counter attacking Soviet troops had even recaptured two vital points north (Continued on Page 17, Col. 4) Gus B.Mich CHANGE YOUR STATUS When you get angry Just pull up a chair Think it all over Say, "What do I care:" Tomorrow you'll forget it On' if not then You'll be smilin" again.

Oct. 18. UV)- Settlement of the China affair and es-lahlivhmpnt nf a Jananpse order in East Asia by quick action, not words, plus continued alignment with the axis were promised by Premier Gen. Eiki Tojo Saturday in his first public statement of the policy of the new predominantly military government in Japan.

Thus he appeared to have staled the outcome of Japan's governmental crisis in which many had questioned whether the time had not come to swerve from the "immutable" course toward a more compromising policy. One-Minute Speech As if to emphasize the action-' not words policy, the vigorous 56-ycar-old premier-general made his statement in a one-minute radio speech and a brief press conference. "I am fully convinced that speedy action and iron will under the aegis of the August virtues of his majesty, the emperor, arc the only way in which to overcome the present difficulties, he said in the radio address. World Peace Helped Japan's course in China and East Asia, he asserted, would contribute toward world peace. In the one sentence; "Internally, we must consolidate a war-time structure, while externally we strengthen our ties with treaty he emphasized Japan's determination to remain in the axis camp.
