Forecasts Weather
By Lisfening To
Russian Broadcasfs
WASHINGTON, April 2.-—(AP)
—The Navy forecasts Pacific
Ocean weather by listening in on
Russia’s meteorological broad
casts.
Captain H. T. Orville of the
Navy’s weather service said to
day that termination of the plan
which gave the United States a
Navy aerological mission in Sibe
ria had created no serious diffi
culties.
. Monitor stations at Adak, in
the Aleutians, Guam, Japan and
Shanghai now pick up the Rus
sian weather radio broadcasts,
take from them the data needed
for use by surface or aircraft in
the Pacific and incorporate the
material in the Pacific weather
plot.
The Russian brodacasts are “in
the clear,” sent in internationally
recognized symbols. The system
works both ways — Russia uses
weather information needed for
its continental forecast from
broadcasts of United States wea
ther material reported by sta
tions in Greenland and Iceland.
Orville noted that Pacific fore
casts are of particular value now
because of the piesence of large
numbers of naval ships and air
craft in that ocean. The best
possible forecasts also are needed
in the dangerous business of
mine-sweeping, still being done
on an extensive scale throughout
the western and central Pacific.

Valuable Collection
Of World Maps
Given University
The University of Georgia is
now receiving regularly ship
ments of maps from the Army
Map Service, which will continue
until the sum total of from 27,000
to 30,000 maps have been deliv
ered to the custody of the Uni
versity. This school has been
named as one of a group of se
lected institutions ‘over the nation
to act as a depository for - these
collections of Army maps.
The maps are being delivered
jointly inte the care of the Uni
versity Library and the Depart
ment of Geography. According to
Dr. Merle Prunty, of the Geogra
phy Department, “The collection
is priceless, and no more than a
small fraction of the maps we
are receiving could be purchas
ed on the market today.”
These maps are duplicates of
every known survey of every
country in the world. Thousands
of them are military maps, and
some are of German and Japan
ese prints, the plates of which
have been destroyed or mis
placed during the war and no
more of which can be printed.
The receipt of such a gift ranks
the University at par with any
other institution in the world, so
far as map service is concerned.
The Army stipulates that these
maps must be housed in a fire
proof building. They also have to
be mounted, catalogued, and clas
sified. Since the Army regula
tion states that the maps may
not leave the campus ahd many
may not leave the room in which
they are kept, the Geography
Department hopes to be located
in the same building with thesc
priceless documents.
The University Geography De
partment plans to add to this
map group a complete series of
aerial photo maps of Georgia, and
many other selected prints from
the rest of North America.

AMFOGE - The Leftwing Greeks Have
A Word For It, And If's Not Good
ATHENS, April. 2—(AP)—
Members of AMFOGE—ihc Allied
Mission For Observing the ‘Greek
Elections—wear a blue and white
owl on their greek arm bands.
They themselves cail it ‘“the big
eyed chicken,” = but leftwing
Greeks who boycotted the elec
tions have a less complimentary in
terpretation oi ine significance of
this-old emblem.
“It stands,” they say, “for the
foreign visitors who sleep all day
and stay up ail night.”
This partisan view of the
AMFOGE personnel isn’t widely
held, however, Most Greeks have
made them feel welcome and say
they feel that the presence of
AMFOGE observers was a mod-,
erating influence in the elections.
Junior Amercan officers as
signed to AMFOGE, many of them
combat veterans, ¢omplain about
the financial disparity between
themselves and civilians attached
to the mission. They say that sol
dier personnel get only $7 per day
expense allbwance Mhile State
Department employes are getting
—sls—
Many of these troops tell amus~
ing stories of the -Italian cam
paign and the larcenous habits of
Mussolini’s onetime faithffu] fol
lowers.
“Buys” Soldier
One concerns two inebrated
American soldiers who approach
ed an Italian boy bootblack late
at night. Accustomed to" the na
tive propensity for black market
operations, one soldier jokingly
pointed at ‘his wobling buddy,
who was out on his feet, and asked*
“How mush you give me for my
{friend here?”
“Ten dollars,” the boy answer-]
ed unexpectedly. He peeled off
the money and the fir§t drunk!
pocketed it and staggered off in
to the darkness. l
The bootblack then led the sol
dier he had “bought” into the
nearest park and striped him of
his uniform, shoes, watch and un
derclothing. =He abandoned his
bare purchase to the cold breezes.
He is suposed to have made about
S2OO profit on his investment.—
Another story. illustrates the
Italian aptitude for car theft in
the early days of the Allied oc
cupation when American jeep
drivers were afraid to slow up for
traffic signals for fear their tires
‘would be siclen. p
. One Italiaon driver whose car
was halted Ly a flat got ont and
disgustedly began jacking up the
front wheel he looked up from his
labors and saw’ g stranger non
chalanty removing his rear tire,
‘When he shouted out in protest
the stranger indignantly re
proached him,
~ “If you are taking off one of
ithc front tires why should you
object if I make off with the back
one? Should’t I live too?”

Ammunition Barge
Adrift Somewhere
Off Florida Coast
MIAMI, Fla., Aprii 2 — (AP)—
The Coast Guard today planned to
renew its search of the ‘Atlantic
Ocean off the Florida coast for a
derelict ammunition barge loaded
with 134 tons of bombs and depth
charges which was being carried
northward in the Gulf stream.
- Darkness halted the seaich yes
|terday and the Coast Guard said
it would be renewed at dawn in
the area off the coast between
iPalm Beach ana Mayport, Fla.
|Coast Guard headquarters here
‘broadcast a warning to all ships
to steer clear of the unmanned
barge.
' The barge broke loose from its
towing tug shortly after 4 a. m.
vesterday about 40 miles east of
‘¥ort Pierce while the bombs and
depth charges were being towed
to a depth of 600 fathoms to be
dumped.
Coast Guard officials said the
ammunition was from deactivated
airfields in Florida and was being
dumped because iv was unsafe,
because the powder had gone bad,
the ammunition was out of date,
or lot numbers had been lost and
it was no longer possible to tell
its age. $
It was not known if the craft
had riding lights still burning, and
Coast Guard officials said there
was a chance that the barge was
wandering “blind” in the gulf
stream.
Seventh Naval. District head
quarters here said it was believed
the ammunition was “in a safe
condition” but indicated that old
explosives such as those on board
are tricky.
“Usually all fuses are extract
ed,” the Navy pointed out, “and
it is believed that there was no
bag powdey aboard.”
Yesterday Coast Guard planes
and a sea-going tug searched the
area some 60 to 90 miles off the
coast between Stuart and St. An
gustine, until darkness intervened

by a Dane, Malling Hansen. |
