"More strangely, a window on a top landing had fallen outward, and through it must have passed a fragment of the bomb. It passed along the landing, through the open door of a bathroom, cut the wires sus pending the electric light as cleanly! as would a pair of sharp scissors,' and then passed on out of the window.

J'none 4, Lloyd Hobbs. LONDON. A ological adage is that lightning never strikes twice In the same place. Nazi bombs do, particularly when they appear to be directed by personal animosity or a personal craving for revenge. A target of this sort has been revealed as a little village in a southern county of England with a Queen Anne house figuring as a bullseye. Aside from the house the village includes two duck ponds, one by the church and the other close to the pub, known to the older residents as The Club. These people have no doubt of the personal element directing the raids, for thrice has the village been bombed, thrice has the house apparently been selected as the bullseye, and thrice has the bullseye been missed. The latest raid in which a direct hit was almost scored on the house is thus described by one of the "older residents" in The Times of London: Plane Heard Overhead. "In this Queen Anne house resides the largest family on the Green ("" an family with many The shutters sons and daughters. and the ancient thick brick walls -"-- mi irmr' suggested that no air raid was necessary, so the schoolroom at the appointed coast.
