acre camp in suburban Dearborn
which has been used as a trade school
and farm project for high school-age
boys has been converted into a re-

World War II veterans who have

mentary subjects.
Veterans To Receive Pay
In addition, it said, each veteran
admitted to the camp will receive $3 a
day in payment for his work on the
farm, in the machine shop or in
maintenance duties.
The camp, known as "Camp Le-
gion" since its establishment in 1938
as a summer farm project for sons
of World War I veterans, includes
barracks, dining hall, library, ma-
chine shop. non-sectarian chapel and
farmlands located along Southfield
Road in Dearborn.
As a rehabilitation center, the
camp will be under the direction of
the Henry Ford trade school, with
cooperation of the Ford American
Legion Post No. 173.
No Obligation Imposed
Trade school officials said each
man accepted would remain in camp
until "he is mentally, physically and
skillfully ready to take a job," and
that he would be under no obligation
to accept employment with the Ford
Motor Company, but might apply
for such a job if he wished.
Ford officials said more than 1,000
medically-discharged veterans of this
war now are employed by the Com-
pany.

LONDON, April 8.- (A') --Capt. Don
S. Gentile's claim of five planes de-
stroyed on the ground on April 5 was
confirmed today while he was blast-
ing three more Nazi planes out of the
sky to run his bag to 30, and the
Piqua, O., Mustang pilot became the
first American ace of this war for-
mally recognized as having broken
Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker's World
War record.
The confirmations brought his of-
ficial total to 27, of which seven were
destroyed on the ground and 20 in
the air. The three destroyed today
are still to be formally confirmed.
Rickenbacker destroyed 26 enemy,
aircraft in the last war, all in air
combat, a mark which was equalled
by two Marine fliers in the Pacific in
this war.
Confirmation of his claim came
shortly before he returned from to-
day's mission with a triple kill to be
a guest of honor at a celebration at
his base.
He was one of several American
fighter pilots claiming triples today
as aerial fleets of fighter-escorted
U.S. heavy and medium bombers
ripped Brunswick's plane factories
and airdromes in northwestern Ger-
many and Belgium.

Revolutionary
War Letter
Go to Library
Copies of correspondence between
John Paul Jones and the Earl of Sel-
kirk were presented to the William C.
Clements Library yesterday by Mrs.
George Schermerhorn of Reading,
Mich.
1M'rs. Schermerhorn came into pos-
session of the letters when she visit-
ed the Selkirk Manor House in 1939.
In 1941 the manor was burned and
the original manuscripts were de-
stroyed.
John Paul Jones had sailed to
Scotland during the Revolutionary
war in order to capture the Earl of
Selkirk as a hostage for American
prisoners. However, since the Earl
was not at home when Jones' sailors
arrived, theymade off with the fam-
ily silver instead.
The correspondence between Jones
and Selkirk pertained to the stolen
silverware. Jones told Selkirk how
he had purchased the silver from his
men and intended to return it to him
after the war. The promise was made
good.
Adjoining the Selkirk estate was
the property of William Craik, whose
son was the physician of George
Washington. Craik's gardener was
the. father of John Paul Jones. Let-.
ters from Craik as well as the Sel-
kirk letters are included in the col-
lection.
