Heels of Gen. 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.
Anti-Aircraft Artillerymen 'Keep 'Em Falling'
Men behind our big anti-aircraft guns must move with clock-Hke and flawless precision. The heart of the
anti-aircraft artillery is, the battery commander headquarters (left). Here in the underground station Lieut.
E. Seeleye, White Plains, N. Y., plots the progress of approaching planes. At his elbow Pvt. John Drtina,
Brooklyn, reports messages from the units on the range. Right: A 90-millimeter gun has just been fired. The
gunner's last duty before firing a new round is to kick the shell ease from the gun platform.
'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. Photo at top shows ship
being launched at West Palm Beach, Fla. Lower photo shows ship on its
way through inland waterways. The deckhouse is only temporary. This
is a 91-foot model. The larger "phantom" will be 260 feet long, difficult
to sight, and hard to sink.
He Fed Them Before -- He's Doing It Again
Former President Herbert Hoover, who fed the Belgians during World
War I, visited the stage door canteen and helped to feed some of the boys
who are doing the job in World War H. He is shown putting sugar into the
coffee of Aviation Cadet Marion M. Powner, while Pvt. ,M. Walosky

Fourth birthday of Egyptian prin-

organization, which is similar to our

Mugs From Trees
A visit to the giant Panama air

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.

but when it comes
