Ihree Freshmen

Castleberry Stars 
For Georgia Tech

the player’s benches 

A t least three freshmen will be 
on 
in the 
Cotton Bowl in Dallas on January 
I when the Longhorns play Geor
gia Tech in their first bowl game 
in history, but only one o f them 
has seen service on the varsity 
squad during the past season.

That 

freshm an, Clint Castle­
berry, was the first freshman in 
many a year to make any sort of 
all-America mention, and the two 
freshmen the Longhorns will carry 
along are Ed Heap and Frank 
Guess, star Yearling kicker and 
passer this past season.

Castleberry, the only freshman 
on the Y ellowjacket squad, is five 
fe e t nine inches tall, weighs 155 
pounds, and passes 
left-handed. 
He came from Boys High School 
in Atlanta, and was all-state in 
football, basketball and baseball 
for two years, in his senior year 
playing on the all-Southern prep 
football team.

A great broken-field runner, 
Castleberry has been called the 
best punt returner Georgia Tech 
has had since the days of “ Stum py” 
Thomason back 
in 1928. Castle­
berry is also a good blocker, a 
hard tackler, and considered the 
best defensive back on the Tech 
squad.

Flyings Not a Game, 
Says Ex-Steer Layden

Special to T h e D aily T e x a n 

I
BLACKLAND ARMY FLYING' 
SCHOOL, Dec. 15. — Lieutenant 
Peter J. Layden, who flew from 
his form er post at Lubbock, Texas, 
to join the sta ff of Army Air 
Forces pilots at Blackland Army 
Flying School, Waco, Texas, 
is 
a bit on the modest side. When 
he filled out a form asking for 
his college biography, he neglected 
to fill in the space for participa­
tion in collegiate athletics. In fact, 
he didn’t even fill in the blank 
which asked if he had been cap­
tain of a college varsity team.

Just in case you’re very short- 
memoried, Lieutenant Layden was 
known to sport fans and writers 
last year as just plain “ P ete” 
Layden, hard-hitting captain and 
all-American 
fullback at Texas 
University.

Shortly after graduation 

last

June, Lieutenant Layden enterad 
the Army Air Forces and recaivad 
his primary training at Pine B luff, 
Ark. He advanced to Randolph 
Field for basic training and than 
won his “wings” at Lubbock Army 
Flying School on October 3 after 
com pleting his advanced 
twin- 
engine flight instruction there.

if he 

Asked 

found as many 
thrills in flying as he did as a 
top notch college 
football star, 
Lieutenant Layden replied, “Yes, 
learning to become an Army pilot 
is the biggest thrill I’ve had so 
far. As a college football player 
a mistake on the gridiron may 
cost you a few yards loss, but 
when you fly a fa st Army plana, 
mistakes are out. You just hava 
to be right.

Jingle bells, jingle, jangle, jingle, and the sports menu for the

maybe we can enjoy them over the air.

you are all undoubtedly anxious

Coming east the next stop is 
El Paso where the only bowl of­
fering two unbeaten 
teams will 
play host to Hardin Simmons and 
the Second Air Force Bombers.

Information on the soldiers is 
a little lacking so the best thing 
to do is either lay off the game 
or pick Hardin Simmons on the 
basis of little Rudy Mobley who 
has been one of the outstanding 
backs in tho nation this fall. The 
Cowboys’ competition hasn’t been 
too tough, but they have been 
good enough to beat two South­
west Conference elevens, so they 
ought to win.

Now the next stop is Dallas, but 
let’s skip that for last and go on 
over to Mardi Gras town.

In New Orleans we have Tulsa

that beautiful record the Golden 
Hurricane piled up this season will 
be smashed as they meet 
their

I’m counting on Coach F rnka’s 
boys to uphold the glory of Indian 
Territory and gain further claim 
to being one df the top five teams 
in the nation.

Tennessee never has stood very

and Cincinnati, and so feel rea­
sonably safe as you pick the Okla­

points.

have had good seasons and the 
game should be very interesting. 
The score a t the end of the game, 
incase you are interested in de­
tails, will be Boston College 21, 
Alabama 13.

Oh, did you say you wanted to 
know how the game 
in Dallas 
would wind up? If you happen to 
be in Dallas the night of January 
I, I ’ll be available for a review of 
the game, and more than glad to 
change my mind. B ut right now— 
and for the first time this year 
th a t I ’ve picked against the Long­
horns— it looks like the Georgia 
Tech team will have a little too 
muck fo r the Steers to handle,

Longhorns to Lose

Up to this game I have thought
the Steers should win every game 
this season, and none of the pre­
dictions have been based on pre­
judice. The losses to Northwestern 
and Texas Christian were both 
the 
upsets, and on the basis of 
complete record, I still think th at 
Texas should have completed an 
unbeaten season.

But New Year’s Day they will 
face a team th a t has only one 
its record— and 
black mark on 
th a t against either 
the best or 
second best team in the nation— 
and there is ju st no logical way 
to figure a victory fo r Texas.

a 

But there have been 

few 
other games this year th at haven’t 
exactly followed the most logical 
course. And we can hope th at the 
Cotton Bowl game will be a repe­
tition of those.

Georgia Tech should win. But 
Texas CAN win. L et’s help them 
do it by being a t the game if pos­
sible.

minor league crown, edging P ra ­

N either team was able to score 
in the early p art of the champion­
ship game. The Tappa Keggas* 
kicked off to the Kappa Sigs, but 
took over when Jim Castledine 
intercepted a Kappa Sig pass. Two 
plays later, Chuck Finlayson in­
tercepted a Tappa Kegga pass. 
The Kappa Sigs moved 
the 
T.K.B. 17, but lost the ball when 
Tappa Kegga Bru intercepted over 
the goal line.

The next three plays saw three 
interceptions, with the Kappa Sigs 
ending up with the ball on 
the 
Tappa Kegga 30. A forward and 
a lateral moved them to the 17, 
then a short pass over center 
moved them to the 7. A fter three 
incomplete p a s s e s , Finlayson 
tossed to John Baker for the score. 
•

Kappa Sigma kicked off to the 
T.K.B.’s, but Finlayson intercept­
ed another of Tom McElroy’s 
passes on the 30. The Kappa Sigs 
moved to the T.K.B. 5-yard line on 
two passes and a roughing penalty 
against the Tappa Keggas. Dave 
Donaldson, T.K.B. right end, and 
Finlayson had a little scrap at this 
point, and Donaldson was ejected.
The Bras only score came early 
in 
the second period. They re ­
ceived the kick-off, got now'herc, 
and punted to the Kappa Sig 25, 
where the tailback fumbled, and 
Castledine recovered for the Tap- 
pa Keggas on the 12. Three plays 
later, McElroy passed to Howard 
Peterson for a touchdown!. McEl­
roy attempted to convert by pass­
ing to Castledine, but the pass

Son of Famous Ex 
Gets Army Wings

K earie L. B erry Jr. received his 
Army A ir Force wings a t gradua­
tion exercises at the Lubbock Fly­
ing School Sunday, December 13.
Young Berry, form er track star 
at Alamo Heights High, San An­
tonio, and a t West Point, is the 
son of K.L. “ Cap” Berry, All- 
Southwest Conference right guard 
for the 1924 Longhorns. F ather 
Berry originally entered the Uni­
versity in 1912. He was a member 
of the football and baseball squads 
in 1916 but didn't make the first 
team.

•
He interrupted his college ca­
reer in May, 1917, to enter the 
Army during World W ar I. He 
served overseas during the war, 
attaining 
rank of captain, 
whence came his nickname.

the 

R eturning to the University in 
1924, Cap w ent out for the squad 
again, a squad th a t had lost most 
of the best men from the 1923 
team which had been undefeated. 
•

Cap started the season a t right 
guard, and played a full sixty 
minutes 
in every game Texas 
played th a t year. In the last two 
games of the season, he was shift­
ed to a backfield spot whenever 
the regular backs couldn’t pro­
vide the necessary scoring punch. 
He was a unanimous choice for 
the All - Southwest Conference 
right guard position, and received 
honorable m ention on one All- 
American squad.

Because of Cap’s stellar play­
ing, the Longhorns did much bet­
ter th at year than was expected 
of them a t the beginning of the 
season. They won five, lost three, 
and tied one.

Cash is a dangerous companion. It tempts thieves or it
may be lost.

It is both wise and inexpensive to turn this cash into 
AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS CHEQUES. Then 
if these Cheques are misplaced or stolen (before you have 
affixed your identification signature) their value is re­
funded to you.

You spend them as you do cash. They remain good SO 

long as you carry them around unspent.

You can buy them at Banks and Railway Express offices. 

They cost 75£ for each $100.00.

Moves to Split Allied Forces in Tunisia

Large Army Needed, 
Roosevelt Declares

British Consul 
Visits Campus

By International N ew t Service

President Roosevelt Tuesday allayed national fears of 
an excessively large army. In answer to charges that the 
United States w as building too large an armed force, the 
President said the nation wouldn’t think so when the time 
for serious fighting comes.

Mr. Roosevelt expressed surprise at statements that 
France fell because the civilian corps could not supply 
the Army. This view was taken receitly by Pierre Cot, 
former French Minister of Aviation. The President, how­
ever, acknowledged reports that domestic economy could 
be disrupted, but said that he did not think this would 
happen here.

Freed Countries to Get Aid Quickly

Herbert H. Lehman, director of foreign relief and re­
habilitation, said quick and effective aid to 
liberated 
countries will aid materially in shortening the war. He 
declared that food, medical supplies and clothing given 
to beleaguered peoples could easily turn the captives 
against their captors.

Declaring that he eventually expects to go abroad in 
connection with his work, Lehman emphasized 
that 
American relief plans center on the task of helping Europ­
ean conquered countries to get back on their fe e t as soon 
as possible after they are liberated.

Germans Repulsed 
Along Russian Fronts

MOSCOW, Dec. 15.— (IN S)— 
Furious Russian counter-attacks 
southwest of Stalingrad were grad­
ually shoving the invaders out of 
the Volga city’s northern factory 
district, block by block. Recap­
ture of several more buildings 
in this metropolitan area was an­
nounced in the Russian Tuesday 
noon communique.

Northwest of Stalingrad, the of­
ficial bulletin said, Russian troops 
beat back Nazi counter-thrusts 
Monday night, then resumed the 
initiative and broke into a line 
trenches which was 
of enemy 
cleared of the foe.

Heavy fighting persisted south­
west of Stalingrad where the Ger­
mans last week launched a vigor­
ous counter-push in an effort to 
strike back into the great bend of 
the Don River from the south and 
regain a stretch of the railway 
to the Caucasus which had fallen 
to the Russians in the first rush 
of their offensive.

the preceding 

After recovering a little te rri­
tory during 
two 
days, the Germans were stopped 
Monday night as further Nazi a t­
tacks met with failure, the Soviet 
command announced.

Equaling in scale and intensity 
the enemy counter-pressure below 
Stalingrad was a Nazi drive west 
of Rzhev, vital rail junction on» 
hundred and thirty miles north­

west of Moscow. There the etna- 
my tried repeatedly to eject the 
Russians from a portion of the 
railway to Velikye Luki, one hun­
dred and thirty-five miles to the 
west.

During Monday night, said the 
midday Soviet communique, the 
Germans in th a t area brought up 
reinforcements and unleashed a 
fresh series of counter-attacks. All 
were repulsed with heavy losses, 
it was announced.

(The German high command 
claimed Tuesday that Russian a t­
tacks on the central front Mon­
day broke down while Nazi forces 
in soma sectors burst through So­
viet defenses and in others tight­
ened rings around allegedly en­
circled Russian units.

(On the Don-Volga steppe be­
fore Stalingrad the Nazis claimed 
they repulsed Russian tank attacks 
in “ fierce fighting.” The Germans 
said they knocked out one hundred 
and fifteen Soviet tanks Monday 
on both the Stalingrad and cen­
tral fronts.)

MOSCOW, Dec. 15— (INS) — 
Furious German counter-attacks 
southwest of Stalingrad and west 
of Rzhev appeared to be declining 
in force tonight in the face of firm 
resistance by the Russians, who 
said 
their offensives were con­
tinuing.

Visiting th* campus for a few 
hours Monday was E. Chester 
Walsh, British consul-general at 
Houston, guest of Arthur L. 
Brandon, University director of 
public relations.

Mr. Walsh arrived in this coun­
try on November l l and has been 
stationed at Houston as British 
consul-general only a few weeks. 
He formerly was consul in Java.

Very 

interested 

the Rare 
Books Collections and the care 
taken of books, Mr. Walsh re­
marked that England has lost at 
least two million books through 
fires after bombings. Even a 
house to which many book# had 
been removed from the libraries 
for safe keeping was bombed and 
many books lost, he commented.

An Oxford graduate, Mr. Walsh 
stated that 2,500 students attend 
Oxford and about 4,000 attend 
Cambridge, both considered to be 
in 
schools of high attendance 
England, and that life in “English 
schools is much different to that 
in the American schools.”

United Nations' Planes 
Bomb Tunis and Bizerte

LONDON, Dec. 15— (IN S )— German troops Tuesday 
night were deploying south of Tunis in a new move appar­
ently designed to outflank and split Allied forces, while 
American and British planes maintained a non-stop pound­
ing of enemy bases and lifelines in Tunisia*

Bombers Pound

M ints Slow 
British Advanct

CAIRO, Dec. 15. — (INS) — 
Elaborate German minefields to­
night appeared to have slowed 
down the British Eighth Army in 
its pursuit of Axis forces fleeing 
across Western Libya, but the 
enemy retreat in turn was being 
impeded by the continual hammer­
ing of swarming Allied planes.

While British sappers toiled in 
the desert and swamplands to clear 
a corridor for the continued ad­
vance of tanks /md trucks, Ameri­
can and R.A.F. fighters and fight- 
er-bombers by the hundreds soared 
ahead, and wrecked scores of Axis 
vehicles moving west toward Trip­
oli.

In its third day the rereat of 
Field Marshall Erwin Rommel’s 
units offered no clew to Allied 
reconnaissance pilots as to where 
it might halt for a stand. This 
gave rise to all sorts of specula­
tion. It ranged from the surmise 
that Rommel may pick a spot about 
one hundred miles east of Tripoli 
to give battle to the conjecture 
that he might even race all the 
way to Tunisia to consolidate his 
forcis with those of Colonel Gen­
eral Walther Nehring for a last- 
ditch defense.

And aa th# British armored 
spearheads pushed forward care­
fully through avenue* carved by 
their engineers in these minefields 
they encountered 
small enemy 
rearguard detachments here and 
there that offered but scanty and 
alway* unsuccessful resistance.

•

At daybreak Monday, the Brit­
ish announced, hundreds of Al­
lied fighter-bombers, including U. 
S. Curtiss P-40’s, took over the 
“day shift.” Continuing their “in­
tensive raiding of enemy transport 
moving to the west,” the communi­
que 
fighter-bombers 
scored destructive hits on “ scores 
of vehicles” and blew up one 
enemy ammunition dump.

American and British heavy 
bobbers of the Middle East com­
mand, said a communique at Cai­
ro, carried out what was describ­
ed officially as “the most success­
ful attacks yet recorded” against 
Tunis and its neighboring port of 
La Goulette,

For four solid hours on Sunday 
night the bombers remained over 
the Tunis-La Goulette area, spill- 
ing tons of explosives, shattering 
ships, docks and other 
installa­
tions and kindling vast fires.

Direct hits were scored on 'at 
least” three Axis ships mooted at 
La Goulette, the Cairo communi­
que Vecounted, and all of the ves­
sels caught fire.

“Other fires were started 

on 
La Goulette Island and near the 
main docks of Tunis,” the official 
bulletin continued. “One fuel fire 
could he seen one hundred miles 
away.”

The air arm of the British Med­
iterranean Fleet, meanwhile, join­
ed in the unrelenting campaign to 
disrupt the flow of Axis troops 
and materials from Italy to both 
Tunisia and Tripolitania. Naval 
Torpedo bombers, it was announc- 
ed, hit an Axis merchant ship o ff

Despite the Allied air off ens-♦ 

ive which already had rendered 
large parte o f the port of Tunis 
and many of Bizerte’s docks un­
usable, Nazi armored and infan­
try units streamed out of the Tu­
nisian capital city south and west 
along the railway to and beyond 
Pont Du Fahs.

to 
This movement, according 
latest word from Allied North Af­
rican headquarters, forboded an 
enemy attem pt to swing around 
the southern anchor of the Anglo- 
American line near Medjez-El- 
thirty-five miles west and 
Bab, 
slightly south of Tunis.

It also indicated 

a probable 
Axis effort to separate the Angio- 
American forces in northeast Tu­
nisia from the Amercan-French 
units operating 
sou h 
against the coastal route to Trip­
oli 
toward which Field Marshal 
Erwin Rommel’s Afrika Korps is 
retreating before the advano« of 
the British Eighth Army.

in 

Pont Du Fahs lies thirty-two 
miles south and somewhat west 
from Tunis and twenty-five mles 
southeast of Medjex-El-Bab. At 
Pont Du Fahs the railway from 
Tunis turns sharply west to the 
Algerian border and runs through 
Bou Arada, fifteen miles to the 
west where it crosses the main 
highway from Medje*-El-Bab to 
southern Tunisia.

Maneuvering his forces down 
the railway from Tunis across the 
east Tunisian coastal plain. Colo­
nel General Walther Nehring ap­
peared to be aming a blow at Bou 
Arada, capture of which by the 
Axis would split o ff effectively 
the Allied troops 
in the north 
from those in the south.

•

Countering this threatening en­
emy deployment, Lieutenant Gen­
eral Kenneth A. N. Anderson, 
field commander of the Allied Tu­
nisian forces, was thrusting pa­
trols south from the Medjez-El- 
Bab sector to strike at the Axis 
movements.

Many sharp clashes were fought 
In this mid-Tunisian 
area and 
there were some indications that 
the next great collision of the op­
posing tanks and infantry may oc­
cur on that ancient plain where 
the armies of Rome a n i Carthage 
met in decisive battle 2,100 years 
ago.

For the present, however, the 
main action in the Tunisian strug­
gle was in the air. And the Allied 
success in whittling down Ger­
man aerial superiority over the 
Tunisian theater was demonstrat­
ed in disclosure by North Agroan 
headquarters th at United States 
planes alone had shot down or se­
verely damaged at least a hun­
dred and thirteen enemy aircraft 
since the campaign began.

77th Congress Adjourns Today

In sharp contrast to the stormy days of its two-year 
career, the Seventy-Seventh Congress peacefully voted to 
adjourn sine die W ednesday, leaving a batch of contro­
versial measures for the new congress convening Janu­
ary 6*

Passed by both branches after a brief debate was a bill 
to raise the pay of about 1,500,000 government employees 
It 
at an annual additional cost of about $250,000,000. 
marked the first time in many years that some Federal 
em ployees’ pay rates had been boosted.

The bill was described as a “stop-gap,” to be in effect 
only until April 30, 1943. M eanwhile, the Seventy-Eighth 
Congress is expected to pass a permanent government 
pay-raise bill.

President Roosevelt this w eek sent a special message 
to Congress, urging that the pay of Federal employees be 
increased, but with both branches of congress operating 
on a basis in which a single member could block legisla­
tion, passage of the bill was considered almost a miracle 
of unanimity.

The Senate was first to ad op t the ad jo ur nm e nt resolu­
tion, acting a fte r passing the government pay bill. Not a 
single voice was raised against quitting, likewise in the 
House there was not a negative vote when the a d jo u r n ­
ment resolution was called up by majority leader McCor­
mick of Massachusetts.

But still on the calenda r as the legislators began hasty 
evacuation of the Capitol were bills to authorize $5,000,- 
000,000 additional for the Reconstruction Finance Cor­
poration, and a House-passed hill directing the adminis­
tration to include farm labor costs in computing parity 
price ceilings for agricultural products.

Dear E d ito r:

F or about 

F or b long tim e now have I 
followed with g re at interest the 
argum enta about hatred in the 
“Firing Line.** I em interested 
only in one h atre d : the anti- 
German hatred. Both eidea have 
presented 
argum enta; 
good 
both eidea have won certain 
points. But may I make an 
objective observation on 
the 
question, “ How should we tre a t 
the Germans a fte r the w a r?”
•
IOO years now 
Europe baa been divided into 
two groups: I p er cent Ger­
many, 2 per cent the victims 
of Germany, including attacked 
countries < like Denmark 
in 
1864, A ustria in 1866, France 
in 1870, and dotens of others 
in 1914-1918 and 1939-1942); 
nations, 
oppressed 
including 
(like the Poles a t all times ex­
cept between 1918 And 1939, 
and way others;) and including 
finally those unfortunate na­
tions which had to become Ger­
many’s allies by stupidity of 
their leaders (like Austria, Bul­
garia and Turkey in 1914 and 
Italy in 1940). No m atter what 
their respective official position 
towards Germany is or was, the 
people of all European countries 
hate Germany. The Germans 
hate few people, but have con­
tem pt fo r all of them as it is 
every Germ an’s opinion th a t his 
nation m ust dominate Europe 
and the world as there m ust be 
one dom inating nation in the 
world and no other nation can 
compare with the German na­
tion 
in • accomplishments and 
perfectness.

•
travels 

In all my 

through 
many of the countries neighbor­
ing Germany (France, Switzer­
land, 
Italy, A ustria, C.S.R., 
Poland) I have never m et any­
body who did not hate and fear 
the Germans. You will find few 
countries

(with th e exception of Switxer- • 
land )w ho have not lost a son,
