Moscow, May 19,
CROSSWORD PUZZLE
It was officially admitted for the Arst time that the new sport of parachuting in Soviet Union is intended to serve to train troops to make landings from the air on en my territory in case of war, when Kalinin spoke with unpre- cedented frankness on the military NOTE-Figures in parentheses indicate number of letters in the words
significance of this sport when distributing medals to young par achute experts on Saturday." The President of the Central Commit- tee stated that gigantic progress had been made in this branch but a decisive test of ability will have to be under active service condi- tlons."
"It is one thing" said Kalinin, "to make parachute landings 'in one's own country to ovations and thrill the spectators but it is quite another to make a landing in a strange
enemy country. Under such "ercumstances It is necessary to have the sense of direction and to make quick decisions and these faculties must be developed. The thought of defeat simply must not arise in the heads of our soldiers and commanders for such thought could destroy the work of years and victory for Communism would be postponed for an incalculable period.
