'Axis Paratroops' Halted By ROTC In Engineers' First Night Problem FROM THE EASTERN STATE .COLLEGE WAR FRONT, AUG. 14, (DELAYED)—Fighting) to break through defense lines just east of State College, an invad-+ ing force of 2000 "Axis Para troop*" attacking from the di rection of Bellefonte was slowed up and stopped on the ouskirts of town, according to last night's communique released this morn ing by the department of military science and tactics. Part of the Engineer Corps night problem, in which the en tire Engineer Regiment of the College entered, there Akf'as no elonent of contact planned be tween two separate units. How ever with two units working on different problems—but on the same terrain—there's bound to be conflict. That's exactly what happened. Prisoners were taken, patrols engaged in local skirmishes, and communication lines were cut by the enemy. In fact, at one place south' of the Duck Pond, a tele phone wire (-the Signal Corps') Over Alaska7—looking For The Jap `College-Sponsored Anthem Version Gets National Praise With fan mail pouring in daily, national acceptance for the Col lege-sponsored version of the na tional anthem,arranged by Dr. George S.

The entire maneuver was under the direction of cadet officers, with staff memberS of the ROTC department serving in an ad visory capacity. At 11 p. m. orders were issued from the regimental command post that the "enemy" was in too great force, and the unit was to withdraw to the rear. Follow ing this, mess (doughnuts and milk) was served in the field, and the two battaliOns were marched back into town. Cadet Major Eugene E. Vaccaro commanded the Ist Battalion, while Cadet Major V. R. Burk hart was responsible for the 2nd Battalion. Cadet Captain Harold Yount was acting regimental commander. ~~ fi --, ....,,, i ,; , : ,, , ,,.., , : c .., : • : , , i. : .::: .., k:t,'.'.';... % . :1,.%,.,' , :::'4:i:.?.akf , i. :.#t‘rn:,),.:',:ii.:::::•.i. tivity by the Jap foe.

Because of the accelerated pro gram, instituted last Spring, and the lack of any extensive College athletic program, there was a de finite need for an intramural soft ball setup that would take the place of the usual varsity compe titions. How well that need was filled bears a little looking into. Early last June co-managers John Silan and Edgar Gales be gan the formation of the four fraternity sections and the single eight-team independent league, representing the three men's dor mitories, several clubs, and such romantic hangouts as the Electric ,Diner and the Canal St. Firehouse. Firehouse By Name? • SEE PIP` Before going further we might explain the widely wondered about origin of the name, Canal St Firehouse. Four years ago when Herk Baltimore, of basket ball fame, arrived on the Penn State scene and organized with John Silan the nucleus of today's powerful squad, he simply trans ferred from his old New Castle team to his Penn State crew the name Canal St. Firehouse. Simple. The 22 fraternity squads, drop ped at random into the four sec tions, battled one another up and down the line for a month until every team in every league had met each of its immediate compe titors once. At ,this point the wheat was separated from the chaff when the winners in each section were rematched in a new section 'of their own, the seconds grouped together, and the thirds, fourths, and stragglers likewise. Phi Delta Theta, Tau Kappa Ep silon, Delta Upsilon, and Phi Sigma Kappa comprised the new section one. For The Title Meanwhile the seven other teams in the independent league were having no more success than usual in their age-old struggle to dethrone the three-time cham pions, the Canal St. Firehouse. The Phi Delts, showing an abundance of batting power, pushed their way through tough competition to the interfraternity crown and the right to meet the Firehouse in a highly heralded e .
