WALTER COSS Home from the South Pacific for brief rest, Capt. toss, of New Brighton, was tellinr hia friends today how he was forced to bail out of his fighter plane over Northern Luzon during the early das of the Philippine fighting. He landed in a river, swam ashore and wandered eight davs through the jungle before reaching safety. Don't believe it If somebody tells you J.ip bombers dent hit what, i they aim at. said Patsy 29.

of the United States Asiatic Fleet submarine squadron today. I as he recalled his own experiences (under fire in Manila Bay Decem-jber 7. I Barilla, spending his leave at ihome sit 1516 Rutherford Avenue, Beechview. said: "I should know. I was helping put out a fire aboard a submarine struck bv a Jap bomber.

Suddenly another Jap bomber made a direct hit on the stern of the ship. REELED ASHORE "I came to about 20 minutes later tying flat on mr face on the ground. They told me the hit just lifted me up and threw me ashore right over another submarine alongside. Barilla, a gun pointer and painter aboard a sub tender, said hls ship "sneaked out the night of the attack. Describing that flrst-day raid on Manila and the Cavite base, Barilla said: "The radio told us about the Pearl Harbor attack We alerted.

From the north, 70 or 80 Jap bombers came over, with fightrr escort. We looked over toward Nicholas Field to see how many of our planes would intercept. ONE PLANE INTERCEPTS I saw one plane that got off the ground and after that pilot had shot down one or two Jap fighters he was shot down himself. "Those Japs can aim. They bit everything they went for.

"In the Navy yard, Jap fifth columnists seemed to spring up out of nowhere with torches in their hands, setting fire to everything they could. The Marines rounded them up. They weren't treated gently. SUBS STRIKE BACK Barilla proudly described the spirit and some of the adventures of subs attached to his tender. He said: "We accompanied the fleet from the Philippines, to the East Indies, to India, bark to the East Indies and Australia.

"I think one of the most famous American subs the one that was supposed to have sunk a Jap carrier just as it was launched in a shipyard Is commanded by an officer whose own sub was damaged at Cavine. "He was put in charge of another sub, and he swore he was going to go out and take rare of those Japs. He's been doing just that. Barilla said he hopes to get back to Australia, because he has a "girl friend" there, and its a good place to strike the Japs. an as FIRST OF THE SEASON!

The ship caught fire at 4.500 feet. It got too hot to stay, but I didn't want to jump from that altitude because the Japs have a nasty habit of shooting pilots Hanging in their parachutes.
