Week-end May Be Decisive
Other Russian dispatches said that Red army troops had broken into another fortified place before Kharkov in a heavy battle at close quarters. On the German side, a Nazi ‘communique said that the Russian attacks on the Kharkov front had failed completely, that the axis had taken the offensive and that the outcome of the battle might be decided over the week-end. The Nazis were using all types of assault units, including air-borne troops and parachutists. ‘It appeared that the axis was not attempting to overcome its heavy losses (including around 500 tanks) by shooting the works in an effort to get a big-scale offensive moving. nee
Tanks Shifted Quickly
Moscow dispatches acknowledged that fighting was growing heavier and that the Nézis were rapidly maneuvering groups of 40 to 60 tanks one sector to another, off Red army blows and repeatedly counter-attacking. Berlin's communique said 20 Russian infantry divisions, three cavalry divisions and 15 armored brigades had failed in the onslaught against Kharkov and that the Soviet supply lines had now been cut. Twenty-three divisions would be probably 300,000 men.
PLAY EQUIPMENT FOR SCHOOL 10 PROMISED
School 10 at 13th st. and Ashland ave. will have a complete set of
playground apparatus installed this|
summer for the first time, J. P. Rooney, assistant director of the city recreation department, said today. oe ; Final details are scheduled to be worked out at a meeting at 2 p. m. Monday between Mr. Rooney, the recreation committee of the parent-teacher association and Miss Frieda Popp, principal. The recreation department operated a playground across the street from the school last year, but, with school board approval, the change has been made in order to reduce the safety hazard and to take advantage of the larger grounds, greater shade and superior accommodations., The ground is entirely fenced.
HAVANA IS WARNED IN SUB BROADCAST
HAVANA, May 23 (U., P.).—The newspaper El Crisol said today that #& German submarine which reported it was only a half mile off the Havana coast broadcast messages to the Cuban government and people promising a “shocking surprise very soon.” A banner headline over the story proclaimed, “Nasi U-Boats Threaten to Shell Havana.” Messages were broadcast in perfect Spanish, the story said, and one described landmarks in Havana and said that the city and its suburbs were clearly visible from the submarine.

‘Others Shocked, too
IF YOU'RE SHOCKED by all this, don’t ‘feel bad. You're not
alone. : DeWitt S. Morgan, superintendent of the Indianapolis city schools who is charged with orienting the school children to - the new concept and. problems resulting from -air transportation, says that all this has given his mind the “greatest shock” in years. “We've just got to get our minds in another gear, that’s all,” he said. Because of aviation, he said most of the world (seven-eighths of which is above the equator) now revolves around the Arctic because the shortest air distance between most countries is above the Arctic ocean. The stratosphere above the Arctic is only four miles high and the temperature is only vi «.- grees below zero while the stratosphere above the equator is 11 miles high and the temperature is 107 degrees below zero, he says. So, practically all long distance stratosphere travel of the future will be above the Arctic.

LONDON, May 28 (U., P).—An
Exchange Telegraph ' agency correspondent reported today from Dinapur, northeastern India, that American Lieut, Gen. Joseph Stilwell had arrived there with 400 other persons after a strenuous trek over the mountains from Burma. The correspondent said he met Gen. Stilwell, who had commanded the Chinese fifth and sixth armies in Burma, while he was eating breakfast with his liaison officer, Maj. Gen. Franklin’ Sibert, yesterday, and that Gen, Stilwell talked between mouthfuls of biscuit and canned cheese and gulps of tea from a thermos jug. Gen, Stilwell referred lightly to his trip over the mountains. “We brought 400 with us, including an American physician, Dr, Seagrave, from the American Baptist mission, Burmese nurses, Americans, British, Chinese, Burmese and Anglo-Indians,” he said. “Many

ASKS FUNDS FOR PROBATION TASK
U. S. Association Points to Increase in Delinquency Throughout Nation.
An appeal was made here today for funds to help the National Probation association expand its wartime activities among delinquent children. With reports coming in from all parts of the country that juvenile delinquency is increasing, association officials urged support of the movement to prevent thousands of children from becoming criminals. Heading the campaign in Indianapolis is Mrs. Brandt C. Downey, 3435 N. Pennsylvania st., who will collect donations and forward them to the national association offices. “Everything must be done to salvage more than 200,000 children and youths who will come before the courts this year as first offenders,” Mrs. Downey said. “They must be saved for society and ‘for. themselves.” The association stated that probation work must be increased not only to help rebuild thousands of young lives but to save the country the enormous expense of maintaining them in reformatories and prisons. : Contributions should be made payable to the National Probation association and sent to Mrs. Downey.

The remarks which he repeated were those he made recently when he returned from a vacation in Florida. Mr. Hull, in response to a question at his press conference Wednesday, said the powers and facilities of the united nations were going forward, with more effectiveness, first on an offensive-defen-sive and then an outright offensive. He said correspondents could make their own calculations as to the effect of this on the duration of the war. But a high government official who declined to permitsuse of his name warned against over-opti-mism Thursday, and yesterday President Roosevelt told his press conference this country faces the prospect of an awfully long war and should not be unduly optimistic about the progress of the conflict.
Urges Guerrilla Training in U. S.
WASHINGTON, May 23 (U. P.). ~The American people were urged today to study details of guerrilla warfare as a vital factor in home defense ‘despite the seeming remoteness of invasion.” The advocate of guerrilla prepa=rations was Lieut. Col. Joseph L. Greene, editor of The Infantry Journal, who said he made the plea personally and not as an official. War department officials said there are no plans at present to train “he civilian population in behind-the-line combat tactics,” but added that they are maintaining a close study of such operations and keeping abreast of latest developments. :
PORTLAND SHIPYARD SETS ‘MIRACLE PACE
WASHINGTON, May 23 (U. P.). —A Portland, Ore., shipyard which shattered all records by delivering a 10,000-ton freighter 60 days after the keel was laid, today, set the pace for American shipyards which, in the words of President Roosevelt, are performing a ‘near miracle” in turning out sorely needed shipping. Joining other high ranking officials in observance of maritime day, marked by launching of 27 new cargo vessels, Mr. Roosevelt praised the nation’s shipyards for their “outstanding achievement” in increasing productive capacity more than 500 per cent in “a little more than a year.” Despite this progress, he added, the nation still is confronted with a serious ship shortage, partly because of the “heavy toll” taken by axis underseas raiders. But the submarine menace, he said, like other. problyms “is being solved.”
he said, “and will continue to go through in growing numbers.”

The only people who call ’em toma-.a-a-a-toes is a bunch of them derned Easterners who think that a mayor of Indianapolis would be wearing war feathers in his hat, which, I'm told, Mayor Sullivan never does. With the short “a” pronunciation, tomato sounds like the crying of frightened sheep. Mr. Browning says, too, that “Im naming my choicest plant (the one that is already blooms ing) the Fremont Power.” He says, too, he’s putting up a plaque with the name on it on a 2x4 by which the plant is supported. Now who said there is no future in journalism?
For instance, in the huge stack of two letters which have piled up in the tomato department, there is one from a G. T. Buffington. Mr. Buffington, it appears, is one of the boys out at the naval armory. That, and also secretary-treasurer of the recently formed Teeming Tomato Juice, Inc. He writes: “After planting two tomato plants’ in the unusual manner outlined in The Times . » We were amazed at the manner in which the tomatoes flourished.” (Editor's Note—Us, too.) “One of these plants is situated near our bunks and . . . is actually producing tomato juice (chilled) at the rate of 14 barrels per day. “When you consider the fact that . . . due to myriad duties we have heen unable to devote much -time to this project, the potentialities of this plan seem fantastic,” Indeed, Mr. Buffington, they do. Indeed.
Come on and Perk!
A FUTURE, that is, if that plant of mine at Central library, perks up a little. : I dug the hole three feet deep, put corn cobs in, the bottom, ran a pipe for water down to them, filled the hole and planted the tomato—all as per instructions. But the plagued thing isn't looking any too good, and I'm not sleeping any too well. The boss says if this thing doesn't work right, my days as an editor are over. It’s a tight spot, all right. .Let you know more about i, later.
