With an- additional 39 found to have been destroyed or damaged in the Christmas day attack, this brought the toll of enemy airoraft in the Manila area in three days to 124. On Leyte, American troops killed 827 more Japanese Tuesday in mop-ping-up operations. Units of the T7th division were clearing a small enemy pocket in the mountains northwest of Palampon. Elsewhere in the Southwest Pacific, Americans planes sank two small freighters and drove a third aground at Borneo and sank or damaged five barges in the Halmaheras.

HOME AGENCY FILLS THIRD OF REQUESTS

Approximately one-third of the 25,000 persons who applied for help in finding houses and apartments at Homes Registry, Inc., this year have been placed in available living quarters.

All of the 7000 applications for rooms were filled, however, Mrs. Carl Manthei, director, announced today. Operating under the National Housing agency, Homes Registry provides a. home-finding service gratis to newcomers in the city, to military men and their families and to local residents who .have to move use the houses in which they have been living are sold. City Response Generous

“Indianapolis has been most generous in responding to the appeal for sleeping rooms for rent” Mrs. Manthei said, “and the Registry can refer applicants to rooms whenever called upon. . The greatest need now is for those who will rent to military families, particularly those with one child.” Since the fall of 1041, 3208 housing units have been built under private construction and 189 apartments have been converted under government housing.

| it could go. I went down and | strafed it and left it burning in a | ditch.”

® = =» ! | TWO TRUCK loads of Germans were frightened into seeking cover in a building by 1st Lt. Arthur B. Staples of Owensboro, Ky, “I saw them looking out a second story window so I made an- | other pass and sent slugs at them through the glass,” Staples said. “Those Jerries just couldn't make up their minds. They finally decided to get out of the building. That was just what I wanted. I let them have it.” 1st Lt. Robert W. Snell of Cleburne, Tex, Thunderbolt pilot, and his wingman, 1st Lt, Warren 8. Dronen of Zion, Ill, were flying up and down the front trying to be useful to the doughboys below. - ” ” “I BAW 25 of our tanks coming up the side of a steep hill and the crewmen were waving at me and pointing ahead,” Snell said. “Up ahead I spotted Jerries traveling north on two 105 fleld pieces. They were riding on top of the guns but when they saw me they stopped and ran for a haystack. “As, we peeled off and began strafing they started digging into the haystack like crazy men.

» » . “I TOLD Dronen to strafe the stack from the east end. As he went down the Jerries moved over to the west end. It made me mad for a second to see them trying to pull a fast one. “I went down to less than 15 feet off the ground and made three passes and the stack began to burn. One brave Jerry crawled out of the burning mess and began running. I gave him a burst and he just disintegrated in midair.” A large tree in his path tore one wing and ripped two feet of the tail on Snell's plane as he pulled out of a dive, ” » » A FLIGHT of Thunderbolts led by 1st Lt. Richard J. Scholz of 8an Prancisco surprised more

than 100 tanks, halftracks and supply vehicles of a panzer division moving in a valley.

On All Places Suspected v Of Gambling.

The average policeman today. was | smarting under harsh words from [his chief: “It becomes obvious that certain officers are not carrying out this policy.” ) In this crackdown at roll-call yesterday, Police Chief Beeker had in mind the ‘strict enforcement of gambling laws, Chief Beeker demanded complete daily reports on the inspection of | taverns, peol rooms, so-called smoke [shops and all other places where

Two. Places Raided

Bgt. John Foran and squad lost ‘no time in raiding two “smokers” at | 601 N. West st. and 238 W. Walnut |st. Two women and four men were arrested on gambling charges. At {the West st. “smoker,” a total of | |$28.22, books of gambling records, | [15 policy books and nine ball tickets! were confiscated. A total of 90 | books of ball tickets, a jar of pick-|

|and- -win tickets and six bank clear-

|ing-house books were found at the lother place. Junior McKinster, 3153 Graceland |

|ave, operator of the Penn-Arts| (Cleaners, 119 E. 16th st., closed his

shop and went to the rear of the building to get his automobile last

| night. A slender bandit about 20-25 | shoved a gun at him,

The gun was discharged as Mr.

| McKinster struck at the bandit. A {bullet grazed the right side of the|

victim's. face and passed through his hat. Frightened, the bandit fled.

!Mrs, Mabel Finch, 50," of 1404 | Broadway, apartment 5, told police | she lost $11 and her ration books to a footpad who accosted her in the 600 block of E. 13th st. A short time later in the same neighborhood, another purse- | snatcher took $18 from Eldora| Hutchinson, 22, of 1226 E. 16th st. Her screams attracted the atten-! tion of a minister who chased the footpad from the 1100 block of E.! 16th st. The minister ran about five or six blocks before losing the | race. However, his identification | led police to arrest a man living in| the neighborhood. With Chief Beeker's latest edict, book-makers forecast a lean winter. They were warned by the chief not to enter the fleld of amateur ath-| letics now that the federal govern- | ment_has banned horse racing after Jan, 3.
