Rommel's Westbound Afrika K0rps Britain's eighth army has been hard on the heels of Gen. Erwin Rommel's much-vaunted Afrika Korps, pushing them westward towards Tripoli. Photo at left shows local Arabs, friendly to the once-again-invading British army, gathered around British armored cars when the British occupied a wrecked town in the Libyan desert. Dense smoke from a burning tank fills the background. Insets: Left, General Rommel, leader of Axis desert forces, and L[vut. Gen. Bernard Montgomery, commander of Britain's eighth army.

'Phantom Ship' Takes to Waters Here is the phantom of the sea, a concrete vessel, completely auto- matic, crewlcss, and designed to travel in convoys of ten or more operated by radio control from a master escorting vessel.

IN a TURNING the clock back with few extra spins we come to the first day we saw a pretty fair pai of football playersDon Hutson and Sammy Baugh. On th4s day in the Rose Bowl, Ala- bama was playing a Stanford team that had at least five po- tential All-America erttries. I mean Monk Moscrip, Keith Top- ping, Bones Hamil- ton, Bobby Grayson, Big Reynolds, 230- pound Mueller and GrantlandRice others. This Stanford team along the ground was giving Alabama a fine raking over. It had speed and power, drive and slash. It struck with pile-driving force. But against this, Stanford was taking a murderous beating through the mr. The Phantom There were two reasons--Dixie Howell, Alabama's passer, and Don Hutson, Alabama's phantom end. Howell flipped -- and Hutson snagged. On several occasions I saw Keith Topping, Moscrip and Hamilton sur- rounding Hutson. You could see that he never had a chance to han- dle Howell's pass. And then--suddenly--Hutson had the ball and was on his way. At the time, I admit I made the error of criticizing Stanford's pass defense. After the game I asked Keith Top- ping, one of the best ends in foot- ball, and one of the smartest, how he and his mates let Hutson get away. "I only wish ! knew," he said. "We'd be all around him. We knew where the pass was coming. We knew how to break it up. I'd be within two feet of Hutson. And then something would happen suddenly. He'd have the ball and be on his way to another touchdown." Later Proof At the time this didn't seem to make much sense. But Hutson cleared this Stanford team of any defense deficiency in later years when he came to the Packers. For eight years he has completely baffled and bewildered the best pass defense the pros could throw against him. Football has never seen anything like him. Ask any pro. Part of the answerAt Alabama, Hutson could run the hundred in a shade better than 9.8. He could high jump six feet. He has hands made of glue. He has a body feint that is unbelievable. Above all, he has Tris Speaker's knack of judging the bali's flight to a foot--and getting there. He doesn't have to follow the ball with his eye. Hp knows where to be at the split second, cutting in or out. Ask Curly Lambeau, George Halas or Steve Owen. Opposing players play Hutson. Hutson plays the ball. I once saw him take a 62-yard pass from Isbell, fake out three men covering him, put on a final sprint and run for a goal-to-goal touchdown. And this was against the All-Stars. The best from all the other teams. Hutson comes under the head of Artist--the greatest artist in his field that football has ever known. When it comes to explaining genius, I quit. About Sammy Baugh The first time I saw Sammy Baugh come into a game, TCU played against Southern Methodist in a battle for the Rose Bowl choice against Stanford. Baugh provided a shock. His best re- ceiving end had suf- fered a broken leg on the first play of the game. I think his name was Clarke. The passing Sammy Baugh years carry an ero- sion. In any evetit, in that game from "far away and long ago," Baugh started passing from his own 10- yard-line, with his crack receiver on his way to the hospital. Ninety yards to a touchdown. In one big moment, when Baugh was surrounded and shut off, I saw him throw an underhand pass for 27 yards and a touchdown. It was something beyond belief. I saw Baugh kick 60 and 65 yards. I saw him tackling all over the field. On that day at Fort Worth, Baugh, 6 feet 1, weighed 180 pounds. When I saw him lately in a pro game, eight years later, he still weighed 180 pounds--no alcohol--no nicotine --in those eight years. Dark, grim, serious, cold, hard- bitten, set to handle one of the tough- est of all jobs in sport. He has proved what fitness and physical condition mean. take all the stars of all but when it comes of hard, cold effective- Don Hutson, Sammy Mel Hein.
