Premier Savdam and Foreign Minister Saracogulu outlined Turkey's position today at a secret session of the People's Party, only legal political group in the country while the press expressed a strong belief in ultimate British victory and hammered away at the idea that “Turkey is in danger and Tur-| key will fight.”

Fascist spokesman Virgmmio Gayda today claimed that Turkey soon would join the Axis, but present indications were directly in the op-| posite direction. Of importance hardly secondary to the Balkan developments were the events in Africa. Here two events, unconnected by| the official communiques but obvi-| ously intimately related, cast a hint! of Germany's plans | Rome announced that Graziani,| the “Lion of Africa,” the tested] colonial commander whose Faseist legions had melted away under the onslaught of Gen.

“Yes, there was once. I remember getting on my skates and going out to Pigeon Creek. It was a long time ago.”
“And that's where you to skate?” “Well, hardly. I really liked the water better than ice then. We used to slip down to the river and take a dip. And I'll never forget | the time my mother took me on | the boat to Pittsburgh. That fried | chicken and those biscuits—best | fried chicken I ever ate.”

It was believed in London that the Germans steadily have flown in troops by plane and moved them across from Sicily by ship at night.
British Near Harrar
Since Gen. Wavell generally is believed to have stripped the Western Desert of all but a small protective force in order to send an expeditionary force to Greece, German concentrations may prove difficult for the British to deal with. Actual military action today was restricted. British troops were reported approaching Harrar, second largest city of Ethiopia and only 37 miles from the key point on the Addis Ababa-Djibouti railroad, which is being heavily bombed. The British also dropped ten tons of bombs on Italian-held Keren, in northern Ethiopia, and Emperor Haile Selassie set up field headquarters at Burye, only 150 airline miles from his former capital at Addis Abbaba. An Italian communique admitted the loss of Neghelli, an important air base in western Ethiopia The British Admiralty claimed that an escort vessel had foiled the escape of an 8000-ton German ship from Massawa, Italian Eritrea, and the Germans claimed a direct bomb hit on a British battleship southwest of Crete.

Joe Cook has been with the show since it opened its engagement here. Then he'll work with a cast of Catholic University students in Washington, who are producing a play built around Joe's life. Joe himself will appear in the last act. Joe has had much success with the jokes he builds around the mention of Evansville. How did he come
| to use these gags?
“Well, when I started in vaudevile, T figured people would like to see » showman who wasn’t from Broadway. So I told them I was from Evansville. I also thought it might get a response from Evansville natives. “And °‘t usually did. In nearly every show I played, there were at least 200 or 300 persons from Evansville who would come back to the dressing hoom to see me. And there probably were a 100 more who didn’t.” Joe was informed he was just two days late for the big state basketbail tournament. “And Evansville asked. Sorry to say, Joe, it wasn't Evansville. But Washington did—and Washington is practically next door —1t’s only 60 miles from Evansville. That pleased him, and he began to doze again. I quietly turned out the lights and closed the door behind me, I softly whistled “Moon Over Reitz Hill,” an old Evansville composition, and vowed I would pay my back dues in the Wheeler School Alumni Association.
