6 During the daytime you hard ly can find the troops on these first war time maneuvers of the United States Army, though thousands of soldiers and hundreds of tanks, jeeps, peeps, troop carriers, tank destroyers and trucks, scout cars and motorcycles are scattered over the 5000 square mile maneuver area, So you go looking for them at night, hunting in a staff car with a young tank lieutenant, Quentih Hodges of Hinesvule, lor a guide and map reader. You eat an early supper, ana at 6.30 pile into a staff car, flying a green flag to show its neutrality and thus keep you from capture bv either the "Reds" or the "Blues."

Soldiers Crowd Town We pass through a small town, its streets lined with motor vehicles of all description, crowded with dusty soldiers in laundry faded coveralls, fine looking soldiers lean and trim after weeks of operations in the Carolina heat.

The Reds hold this town, and each man wears a bit of bright red cloth slung about his neck. Somehow it makes each one look like a pirate or a swash buckling Beyond the town, still on the paved road, we begin seeing more troops sentries posted where sandy back roads branch off, trucks and tanks almost obscured by the natural (cover, their motors being tuned for the march that will start as soon as the blood red sun sinks over the hills to the west. Somewhere, we know, a column of tanks Blue tanks is getting ready to move into the front line for the attack which will begin the following dawn It won't be down the main highway, however, so Lieut. Hodges orders the driver to turn off on the next side road we come to. Close Watch Necessary We roll along more slowly now, scanning each bit of cover for what it may contain, peering ahead each time we top a rise for a pos sible telltale line of dust rising in the distance that will show us something big is on the move, i The car rolls down a grade, rounds a turn and there is a wooden bridge.

A peep is pulled up on the far side. Its four oc cupants all wear white ribbons at their shoulders to indicate they are umpires in this war game. They are waiting for the solution of a problem, a Red problem. Farther up the road, they tell us, is a small mechanized Red force. It is stuck.

Theoretically this bridge has been blown up. The Reds can't advance. If they retrace their course, they may run into a stronger Blue force and be captured. We leave them to it. A few hundred yards farther on we find the "Dead End Kids" three peeps, two scout cars, a troop carrier.

Officers are almost indistinguish able from men. All are caked with dust red dust that clogs your! nostrils, becomes grit between your teeth, stings your eyes until the tears roll down and, by one of nature's tricks, wash out the dust and clear the way for more. These men have been on the move for two days, have been sleeping anywhere they happened to stop, have been eating whenever the cook truck could find them or, when it couldn't, have been living off iron rations. Yet they look alert and ready to go. Gargantua's Keeper Is Now in Army Terrible Garcantua the most ferocious gorilla in captivity, is nen pecKea! This was indicated tnHnv at rXo New Cumberland Recention Ten.

ter where his keeper, Julius L. ueriick, has been received into the Army after having been deferred several times in order tn train a successor. Gerlick, who parted from the famous eorilla two weeks ago, expressed his great relief that Gargantua and his mate escaped unharmed in the fire that swept the menagerie tent of the Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey circus in Cleveland Tues day. At the first meetine between 12 year old, 550 pound Gargantua and his bride Toto. she routed him with a fusillade of fresh fruit worthy of the worst efforts of a bad tragedian, Gerlick reported.

Later she repented the temper mental outburst caused, perhaps, by her Cuban rearing, and started to gaze at him with that yearning look. But her hero, who can defeat eighteen men with one hand in a tug of war, only bolts in panic to the extremity of his cage just like any other skirt shy Lil' Abner.

Gty Among 'Pioneers' in Engineering Training Harrisburg is one of ten towns and cities from nearly every section of the State which rank among the "pioneers" in engineering war training under the Pennsylvania aiate college, according to a recent survey of the 173 communities which have had training centers during five out of six programs. The report was made public today by M. T. Bunnell, supervisor of class centers for the programs.

The survey revealed that, although Penn State has offered a total of six programs in defense training, no community has had a center in all instances. It was also pointed out by Bunnell that the number of towns and cities participating has more than tripled since the first program was offered early in 1941 when only 48 communities were included in the tuition free training plan to create technical workers for war indus tries.

The War Department requests that persons writing to military personnel in the Hawaiian Islands and the Southwest Pacific Area use regular mail rather than air mail for the present, except in emergencies. Officers of the Army Postal Service explain that the present volume of air mail to the Islands is so heavy that only a fraction of it can be carried by plane, consequently much of the mail is held at San Francisco until it can be sent by ship.

While regular air mail service is operated between the Conti nental United States and the Hawaiian Islands, the volume has become so great as to make it im possible to carry the entire amount of civilian air mail.
