Taking a warm bath in a half-gallon of water, however, is a far cry from the icy winds on the Russian front. U.S. Volunteer Flyers' Rangoon Tactics Told CHUNGKING, Jan. 8 —(U.P.)— (Via government radio)— Three American fighter pilots tackled a Japanese air fleet of 108 bombers and fighters in the big Christmas morning raid on Rangoon, it was learned today. The Japanese lost at least 31 of their planes. The British ard American losses and the num- i Japs Attack Towns, Cities (Continued from Page One) Sundays and on Christmas and New Year’s day, the report said. “As was the case in Manila, the churches in the towns and villages were made the special objects of attacks,” the communique said. “Each church is an outstanding landmark and its distinctive char-108 Japanese planes. There was a acter is readily apparent, hence the ber of planes engaged can not be revealed. The 54 Japanese bombers came from Bangkok and picked up 54 escorting fighters over Mouling, south of Rangoon. The bombers flew at 15,000 feet with the fighters above them. Young American pilots of the American volunteer group of the Chinese air force and British pilots of the RAF were ready for them in Rangoon. AMERICANS LEAD Three Americans were first In the air. They jumped into their planes and buzzed up Vo meet the hitch somewhere, as the rest of the squadron did not show up when and where they were expected, so the three American pilots did not wait. They went to work on the raiders. “It looked like a fleet of rowboat's attacking the Spanish armada.” said one witness who was watching from the ground. Slashing into the huge Japanese formations, the three Americans destruction of places of worship was obviously premeditated.” None of the towns so attacked contained any military installations; none had any military value to the enemy, the communique pointed out. Meanwhile, the crucial hour for the defenders in Bataan and Cor-regidor seemed at hand. But the battered and greatly outnumbered American-Filipino garri- tnds77 of Germans by Soviet ski troops cleaning out the Volkhov area below Leningrad and a 15-mile Red army advance over southern battlefields strewn with German bodies. (The recapture of Meshchovsk, 40 miles southwest of Kaluga, 100 west of Tula, and 130 southeast of Smolensk, was reported by the Soviet high command in the night communique* broadcast from Moscow. It said the Russians continued to repulse the Germans, and in their advance occupied a number of populated places.) SKI FIGHTERS INFLICT LOSSES White-clad fighters gliding through and around the hard-hit German forces falling back from the Volkhov river were said to have inflicted particularly heavy losses on the 484th, 454th, and 506th enemy regiments. Heavy fighting was reported at the other end of the wintry front, where in unspecified sectors the decimated ranks of the Axis forces gave way under Red army blows. (A London broadcast recorded by CBS said “German losses in men and material on the eastern front are regarded as irreplacable. The Germans have lost the equivalent in tanks alone of 12 armored divisions, that is, more than half the armored divisions with which the Russian campaign was started. DIFFICULTIES ENCOUNTERED “Difficulties both inside Germany and behind the German front in Russia are growing. There is an acute shortage of rolling stock, skilled workers, and raw material. All ammunition and food needed by the troops have to be carried up to the front. Prisoners report plenty of fuel and ammunition, but they all speak of the scarcity of food. They also say influenza is taking a heavy toll.”) (A Berlin dispatch to the Stockholm newspaper social Demokraten quoted German military circles as saying the army in Russia had not yet reached the “winter line” to which the Nazis reported they were falling back. The dispatch expressed doubt whether such a line could be established at all under the Russian offensive.) held on until other American and' sons — making as brilliant a stand he the 'OW Hoc the >iil "m ly’s jch lily >re ?n. ti- re tn RAF fighters could join the battle. Quite a number of the Japanese bomoers did get through and dumped their loads on Rangoon, but when the show was over at least 31 planes were downed and perhaps more came down in the sea. VICTORIES CITED The American fliers were credited with downing 13 bombers and 10 fighters and the RAF got at : least eight planes. Allied casualties were described as “astonishingly low.” A few days earlier up in Kum-ning another group of American volunteer pilots tackled 10 Japanese bombers bound for Kumning. brought down four “certains” and two more “probables.” The only American loss was a forced landing made by a pilot who chased the bombers too far and ran out of gasoline on the way home. He bent his propellor and smashed his landing gear when he landed in a Chinese paddy field. All in all, the AVG of the Chinese air force has written into aviation history a chapter comparable to the marines’ stand on Wake island. The amazing fact is that' they have done it on a shoestring. Eugene Harley to Address SC Debate Squads Dr. Eugene Harley, professor of political science, will speak to the freshman women's and varsity debate squads today at 2:30 p.m. in the debate squad room. Dr. Harley will speak on the league of nations and various other proposals for post-war organizations for peace. Dr. Harley is an outstanding authority on the league of nations. The Pi Kappa Delta debate ques- as any force ever to wear the regimentals of the United States—are continuing their “steady and valiant” resistance. Resumption of heavy fighting was | reported in army communique No. 49 as the battle of the Philippines entered its second month. Student Defense Plans Revealed (Continued from Page One) directing, and Dorothea Tilton assisting. A science and engineering committee, directed by Robert M. Fox, professor of engineering, assisted by Kenneth Gunn, asks for vounteers who may be consulted an any matter calling for technical advice on applied science or engineering. Also new is the health and sanitation committee, directed by Dr. C. H. Thienes, professor of pharmacology, and assisted by John Ariaudo. Volunteers will be consulted about problems concerning campus health and sanitation in emergencies. “More volunteers are coming in all the time,” Dr. Metfessel said, “and they will continue to be accepted.” Blanks are obtainable from Dr. Carlton H. Mann at the information office. “It is highly improbable that precautions for the safety of students will ever be put to test. However, we feel that we should take no chances, and with that in mind our preparations are going on,” Dr. Metfessel concluded. Trojans Apply for Naval Air Unit Twenty-one applications were made yesterday for the Trojan naval flying squadron, and the quota is expected to be filled soon. Ten of the 15 members originally sought have enrolled, but the quota may be raised if there is a sufficient number of applications. Applications are being accepted in 105 Physical Education. Due to the demand for many naval pilots, sophomores are now being enrolled in the unit as well as juniors and seniors. Alumni of SC who have completed two years of college will also be accepted. Enrollees will start training on Feb. 12. Ensign Wayne Morris has been in charge of enlistments. The 10 pioneer “Fighting, Flying Trojans” are Charles E. Cornwall, Harris D. Eddy Jr., John Rush Hann, William Kenneth Hutchason, William Lyle, Edwin Francis McNeil, Walter Thomas McNeil, Jay Lawrence Perrin, Franklin Willard Robinson Jr., and Clifford D. Ward. Argonaut Society to Hear Hocking in Tuesday Talk Dr. William E. Hocking, chairman of the department of philosophy at Harvard university, will be guest speaker at the January meeting of the Argonaut society, Tuesday afternoon in Argonaut hall. “Ethical Commonplaces” is the topic that will be discussed at 4:15 p.m. following a tea at 3:30. Dr. Hocking has lectured extensively in the United States and also at Oxford and Cambridge, England. He is the author of 11 books published since 1912. Dr. Wilbur Long, professor of _ . - - . Philosophy, will lead the discussion. Recreation Night Planned After Drs. Long and Hocking have expressed their views on the topic, those assembled will have an opportunity to ask questions. by Rear. Adm. Yates Stirling United Press Naval Critic It still is too early to forecast whether or not the defense of Singapore will be successful but it must be admitted that dispatches to date are not reassuring. On the bas'.s of present information it would appear that if the Japanese do not succeed in bringing Singapore under siege w!ihin rhe aext few weeks it will be because they are not as good as they have appeared in the “sneak” attack on Hawaii and their operations in the Philippines. In other words the Japanese ought to be able to take Singapore if they continue to show the same efficiency they have shown in all their operations since they started the Pacific war on Dec. 7-8. ADVANTAGE OF SUPERIORITY They have the advantage of superiority in the air, at sea. and on land and of short lines of communication. All reports so far indicate that the cooperation between all branches of their armed services has been excellent and that they have taken full advantage of their superiority in all departments. The whole, tide of battle, of course, could be turned, if the defending ABCD powers were able to obtain aerial superiority. But that seems impossible. Fighter planes are needed and they must be transported by ship. The distances are too great, it would appear, for large air reinforcements to arrive in time. SINGAPORE LOSS SEEN Hence, the eventual loss of Singapore is a possibility that must be envisaged. That it is envisaged is indicated in fragmentary reports from Australia and the Netherlands Indies. Military preparations are going forward at high speed in both areas and one may assume, on the basis of President Roosevelt’s message to congress, that we are sending large forces to both regions. Some of our sea forces, indeed, are known already to be based on the Netherlands Indies and they are likely to be joined very shortly by large contingents of American soldiers.
