Tea to honor Eskridge art, book exhibit
Honoring Robert Lee Eskridge, art instructor, on the display of his paintings and books In the Fisher Art gallery, a tea will be given tomorrow from 3 to 5 p.m. in the Harris hall patio. The art classes, sponsors of the affair, ask all students and faculty members to attend, stated Miss Winifred Poingdestra, curator of the gallery.
Proving his versatility, Mr. Eskridge highlights his exhibit with water colors of Hawaiian rural life, portraits of a negro dancer, a Costa Rican, a native Hawaiian, and Bob Homan, a naval trainee at SC, photographs of murals painted in Hawaii, and children’s books on Hawaii. Also subjects of the canvas are scenes from Mongolia, Chatsworth, and Brazil.
Recently held In the Los Angeles museum, another exhibit of entirely different material consisted of brilliant water colors of Brazil painted to Illustrate his forthcoming book now in the hands of the publisher.
Second in the current series of book reviews will feature the book, “They Shall Not Sleep” by war correspondent Leland Stowe, with Dr. Emory S. Bogardus, university editor, leading the discussion in the art and lecture room at 2:15 p.m. Wednesday.
For 18 years Stowe has been gathering information for his book ty reporting the foreign affairs of major countries. He has done reporting in the field at both peact conferences and in the European and Asiatic war theaters.
In an interview with Dr. Go-gardus many points were brought out concerning the book. He stated that the author does not hesitate to tell what is happening in China, India, and Russia today and how the outcome of the war will affect everyone In the world if we win the war yet lose the peace.
Stowe is one of the few correspondents of this war who has seen the Russian situation from the bat-tlefronts to the city and rural districts of the Soviet Union. He has also visited camps of German prisoners in Russia and states in hi* book that there are two types of prisoners, the confirmed Nazi and the ordinary German of the old school. In contrast, the Nazi is definitely a hardened and cynical creature while the other type is willing to cooperate.
The significance of the title holds the thought that the people who have fallen before the Nasi and other Axis attacks shall not sleep if we do not provide for the punishment of these wholesale murderers.
These summer book reviews are unique in that they are not strictly reviews but rather interpretations of the author’s main ideas. The lectures are for both faculty and students with discussion carried on by the leader.

the biggest Allied victory since the fall of Cherbourg.
Enemy survivors retreated to the south bank of the Orne where they were reported still resisting fiercely early today in the suburb of
Fauberg de Vaucelles and shelling the Allied forces occupying the main city.
Gen. Sir B. L. Montgomery’s troops achieved the goal they had fought and died for since D-day at 2 p.m. after 34 hours of a steamroller offensive that pulverized 15 fortified villages around the city. Cutting in sharply from the northeast, the British wing joined forces with Canadian forces who captured Carpiquet airfield and entered Caen from the west to throw a cordon across enemy escape lines through the city.
Large pockets of German infantrymen in the area of Covres-Chef, Malon and La Folie, three villages clustered together two miles north and a little west of Caen, were battling furiously to break free but their position was considered virtually hopeless.
Fourteen hours earlier, American troops had finally captured the Germans’ west coast anchor of La Have du Puits. The doughboys drove on two miles south of that town toward Lessay and in their advance southwest from Carentan entered Sainteny only five
miles from the important junction of Periers.
German parachutists reinforcing the sagging enemy front in the west were counter-attacking furiously and had dented the American line in the Mont Castre forest east of La Haye, although the Yanks clung to high ground.
Hearing specialists urge new program

In a recent campaign carried on through the lower elementary grades it was found by testing 2000 children, that three and one-half per cent of those tested were accoust-ically impaired.
Prevention of deafness is an educational as well as a medical program, said Dr. Gardner. The support of all public health organizations was urgently requested by Dr. Kositza and Dr. M. Gardner.
