Top Honors in Scrap Drive Manpower Corps to Send Students Today to Harvest Sugar Beet Crops in Mt. Clemens By BOB PREISKEL Three Axis bad boys are helping Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity make one of the strongest bids on campus for top honors in the all-out scrap drive which ends tomorrow night. A huge oil tank has been set up in front of the house, and three openings in that tank have been turned into the gaping mouths of Hitler, Hirohito and Mussolini." All day every day, the'Lambda Chi boys are busy throwing scrap metal into :those jaws, "choking the bad boys.iwith the scrap that will beat them in this war. But Theta Delta Chi, a sure winner in ;the fraternity division according to the Theta Delts, still has four'aces up its seye.' The Theta Delt members have found a truck and three old cars, lying idle, i. -nearby fields. They will spend all dIay today dismantling them and adding them to the scrap pile in front of their house. Althoughthe drive ends officially tomorrow night, any junk you can find and throw on your pile before the Manpower Corps trucks pick it up on Tuesday will count for your house. Meanwhile, yesterday's football game threw a slight block into the salvage campaign, but according to Boss Borman, the salvage drive has recovered its stride and 150 Manpower Corps men will be at work today on University scrap piles. Volunteers from the Manpower Corps are' still' at work on the farm front. Thirty of them are harvesting beets at Mt. Clemens today in what Mary Borman called "one of the fin- est responses and efforts to date." "We told the fellows that they wouldn't make much money, and that the work would be hard, but they all felt that they were in this to do their part and really turned out to work when we explained the situation to them," he said. British Repulse Nazis in Egypt CAIRO, Oct. 31.- (iP)- The British Eighth Army methodically whittled down German strength today in the western Egyptian desert, consolidated its newly won positions and repulsed counter-attacks while maintaining air supremacy with the help of American planes. .The German radio said the British resumed the attack early Satuday, wheeling up reinforcements especially of artillery and tanks.1 Still there was no major tank bat- tle and the German counter-attacks were made only with infantry and light armor. Identity OfIVessel Is Still Unknown Japs' Second Attack Sends Ship to Bottom; Casualties Reported Light, By The Associated Pressr WASHINGTON, Oc. 31.-Sinking of another U.S. aircraft carrier-the fourth-in the furious air and sea battle for control of the South Pacific, was announced by the Navy tonight, leaving only three American carriers known to be still in action. The latest victim of two Japanese aerial attacks was not identified by the Navy. She went down near the Santa Cruz islands, a tiny spot in the Pacific about 250 miles northeast of Guadalcanal in the same battle which cost the U.S. Fleet the Destroyer Porter last Sunday night (Washington of action had been received from that time. 1-1--..f+I, 1%nF~t of+ha ~n~~nn How to Make Touchdowns ... in Two Ways Salvage Attempted/ 'The first assault on the carrier, which came before noon, caused heavy damage. She was put in tow in an effort to salvage the big vessel, but the Japanese returned in the after- noon. Bombing and torpedo planes roared in to attack. This time the at- tackers inflicted damage below the water line of the helpless carrier. She began to list. Orders were given for removal of the personnel and most of them were saved. Then came the final orders-instructions to complete destruction of the crippled ship. Name Not Disclosed The Navy said the name of the lost ship would -not be disclosed until after next of kin of all injured' or missing had been notified. The vessel presumably came from among four vessels listed in Jane's registry of fighting ships-the Sara- toga, a converted carrier, commis- sioned in 1925, with a tonnage of 33,000; the Hornet, commissioned 1940, tonnage 19,900; the Ranger,, commissioned 1933, tonnage 14,500 and the Enterprise, commissioned 1936, tonnage 19,900. Each of these carriers has a normal complement of between 1,800 and 2,100 officers and men. Each, too,I carried a striking force of about 85 airplanes-bombers, torpedo planes and fighters. "Enemy Loses, Too Previously the Navy had announced the loss of three of the seven carriers which the United States had at the start of the war. Among them was the Wasp, newest of the carriers, which went down in the battle of the Solo- mons on September 15. The Lexington was lost in the Coral Sea battle May 8 and the Yorktown in the battle of phaseotheP eo theomons. Not Sure of Jap Fleet Knox, in telling a press conference yesterday of the disappearance of the Japanese fighting, transport and sup- ply ships from the Guadalcanal zone, said that while it was known some of the vessels had gone to Japanese bases, he was not sure that all had returned to various ports.- That left the possibility that unitsi of the enemy force which had not returned to base might be reassem- bling elsewhere for a new try at join- ing with Japanese land forces in re- ducing the American defenses at Guadalcanal - or that they might rendezvous with another enemy task force for some fresh assignment.

The play came late in the first quarter and proves there are two. ways to score touchdowns, this and the hard way.

Behind the sturdy "Seven Oak Posts,"Kuzma, Wiese, Robin- son and Chappuis found big holes for consistent gains. Allies Destroy Jap Cruiser in Solomons MacArthur's Bombers Blow Up Ship at Buin By The Associated Press HEADQUARTERS OF GENERAL MACARTHUR, Australia, Nov. 1. (Sunday)- One Japanese cruiser was destroyed and another severely damaged in the third straight attack by Allied bombers on shipping in the harbor at Buin in the northern Solo- mons, the high command announced today. Coming in on the target area, some 300 miles northwest of Guadalcanal, just before dawn today as they did in yesterday's previous large scale bom- bardment, the heavy bombers dropped 18 tons of explosives. A direct hi blew up a cruiser, the sixth Jap war- ship sunk or believed sunk by Mac- Arthur's bombers in a month of oper- ations. A light cruiser was damaged severe- ly and a direct hit was scored on a merchant vessel. Near misses were believed to have damaged other ships. Only the day before, three waves of bombers damaged a big warship, be- lieved to be either a cruiser or a bat- tleship, probably damaged an aircraft carrier, also another cruiser, a de- stroyer and set ablaze an unidentified vessel in the Buin-Faisi area. The communiqcue referred to the previous raid, noting that reports had come in, hitherto not announced, of the results of bombing by medium units which made up the second of the three waves of that attack. Student Directory Opens -m-77 Q-1u W"A7!.Q&10,V Illinois No Match for 'M' Eleven Varied Ground, Air Attack Hits Pay Dirt Four Times as Like Puts on the Pressure ' I By BUD HENDEL Daily Sports Editor An inspired Michigan eleven, lashed a vaunted Illinois team with an over- whelming "assortment of power for four periods in Michigan Stadium yesterday to hammer out an impres- sive 28-14 triumph and thunder back into the thick of the Western Confer- ence title picture. Shaking off all effects of their heartbreaking loss to Minnesota last week,'the Wolverines rode roughshod over the waning Illini outfit that had beaten the Gophers to score in every perlod and win going away before a erowd of 33,000 enthusiastic Michigan rooters. Yesterday's victory was the fourth of the season and the second Con- ference win for the Maize and Blue. Illinois now'has a Conference mark of two triumphs and, one, loss, the same 'as Michigan. White Scores First A perfect 19-yard pass from the fingertips of Tom Kuzma to Paul White gave Michigan a touchdown advantage at the end of the opening quarter. The Illini surged back to knot the count in the second period, but the Wolverines countered again on a 69 yard march to enjoy a 14-7 halftime lead. It was all Michigan af- ter that, although Illinois did swarm downfield for a benighted touchdown late in the' fourth period. For Michigan the scoring was dis- tributed among White and Bob Chap- puis, Bob Wiese and chunky Bob Stenberg. White tallied on the Kuzma pass, while the others all crossed the double line on straight line smashes. Illinois, unable to crack the Wolverine line, resorted to the aerial lanes for its two touchdowns. Don Griffin flipped to Elmer Engel for the first One, and Art Dufelmeier threw to Jim McCarthy for the final Illinois vista. Except for their touchdown drives, Illinois was completely throttled.' The Michigan forward wall relinquished only a scant total of 69 yards along the ground. Wistert Leads Way Those Michigan linemen were the "Seven Oak Posts" in every sense of the term yesterday.
