Spring buL: PHONE 573 8 Rota'y and Lions (Continued from Page One) at the final MIL Liquld Language There was a bit of humor fort the correspondent in his contacts with these tough, bearded men. Guest at a battle banquet he satt with the Commandant while ant array of open Kirchwasser bat-1 tles made the rounds, lip to lip. Urged to make a speech, he did sa in his best French. He claimed the saine courtesy from the Com- mandant, that his reply be in English. The Frenchman rose to the occasion with the only bit of English at his command, which was, "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," rendered in well oiled bro- ken accents. A pleasant time in- deed. Heroine The next experience came on another front where a diminutive French girl j oined the accredited correspondents. She' had been with the Maquis, a figure so smal that she was frequently trans- ported in postal bags to gather information. She had won the Croix de Guerre with Palm be- fore becoming an accredited cor- respondent. With Hicks and oth- ers in a mud-rnired foxhole one day amidst cross-fire, they saw three Huns emerge, enter a build- ing. She grabbed a rifle, some grenades, bombed them out, took thern back as prisoners. Her pen- alty was loss of credentials. In Paris, pleading for reinstatement, she was denied, but won a second Palm to hier Croix de Guerre, tri- bute to deathless patriotisrn and fortitude. Jap Joes Mr. Hicks went on to describe1 his contact with the Jap-Ameri-1 can troops in Italy, a complete fighting unit with the greatesti percentage of battle honors in the American forces, tough, brave men, the equal of any with all the Allies. Back again to the west hie was at Cologne ta see this city completely denuded of1 buildings destroyed by the 1000( bomber raids of the RAF; all save1 the lone Cologne Cathedral. He( described here the tank battles1 in which, bazookas, mere bits of tin tubing worth $50 destroyed tanks worth haîf a million. Krupp's End The speaker also told of Essen,1 centre of the immense Krupp1 works. Allied airmen were frus-1 trated here by the paîl of smoke hovering overhead until repeated reconnaissance by air solved the secret of pin-point bombing which eventually wiped out the entire plant. The marvelous Mosquito planes prepared the way for the,1 ONLY SUN-RAY FEEDS CONTAIN GENUINE SEMI-SOLID BUTTERMILK START RIHT1Sun Ra FEED ALL MASH CHE STARTER More growth from the same amoluxt of feed at no extra cost.

He told, too, of the fabulous Krupp residence, a home* with 800 rooms, marble halls, art treasures, where the scion of the Krupps holed Up when the Hun might was des- troyed. He was present at his capture. A tough Yank officer strode into the marble corridors demanding the master of the house. To the lackey: "Where is that guy Krupp?" He was upstairs, came down dignified, "I arn a German; I refuse to leave." He was grabbed by the scruff, hustled across the entrance, slammed in- to the staff car, taken to head- quarters, winded, deflated.. The Sgt.-driver asked: "What's the guy squawking about, hie got the front seat in the car didn't hie?" And so it went as the mopping up proceeded. Purloined Car On to Harnburg, a devastated city, Hicks went in with the first wave to find 18,000 arrned Huns subdued, saluting, àwaiting cap- ture at the hands of a few hun- dred Allies. He saw the demol- ished docksides, the destroyed U- boat pens. On the way out with a pal, an RCAF officer vWith whom hie had travelled 18 hours in a jeep, they spotted a Hun limou- sine, a staff car with rank insig- nia. Posing as high officers, backed with a sidearrn Smith and Wesson, they wangled the keys from a 4-ringed naval officer and thenceforward rode in state, sal- uted as they went. The Payoff Two éPys later Montgomnery ac- cepted the surrender. The show was over. Then followed thous- ands, hundreds of thousands of Huns heading into Allied lines, begging to be taken prisoner, fed and bedded. There were no rneans of coping with it. They were herded into open fields to be counted. As Hicks proceeded back to hîs base his last impres- sion was of the massed supermen standing in mud and sleet, de- feated, dejected, hopeless, their dream of conquest ended in ut- ter despaîr. The speaker closed on this footnote to an awful pic- ture of senseless carnage. Thanks Lion Past President Alex Mc- Gregor moved the vote of thanks in behaîf of the combined clubs. He expressed the general feeling that Mr. Hicks had given an en- tirely new view of what modern war was like. Rotary Past President Morley Vanstone was host in the absence of President Cy Slemon.

Back Shop (Continued from Page One) Skiing would be simplified, but just how they are going to build factories large enough for them ta work in we shal neyer know. Every machine would need room underneath s0 the "dogs" could be placed out of the aisles. Doorways would need to be enlarged. Sidewalks will wear out in half the time. Everything we 'have now would be too small. Cornes the revolution. We knew these lads were sorte- what ponderous when it came to the corn belt, but until a recent incident were not worried. It happened that one of them was repairing belting above the press- room where there is no floor, just bearns to walk on. Sornehow he slipped and with a crash broke through the ceiling, one foot and leg dangling in the breeze when the pressman came to the rescue. Before offering any assistance he called the rest of the Back Shop to witness this phenomenum of nature. We saw a huge hoof fully covered with what might have been a shoe. but due to its size more resembling an orange crate, and the longest length of skinny limb which apparently was just hanging from the ceiling and not attached to a body above. Finally, we ceased our rnirth and gave him a helping hand, but we shal neyer forget that sight. The rest of us are more or less normal types for our gener- ation, being either short and fat, tail and slender, or med- iumn rare, but the younger generation with their gigantic proportions will make us look like a bunch of pigmies if they keep on growing. We plan ta make a tape measure sur- vey of the local public and high school students in the near future and when com- plete it will, we f eel certain, astound the world. Possibly they are being geared by nature to rise above the rîsing cost of living or to keep a step ahead of the time. In any event the future should definitely be on a sound foot- ing.
