“RED’ ARMY SUFFERS IN AERIAL ATTACK Successful Bombing Raids Are Carried Out by “Blues™ on Columbus. BY JOSEPH S. EDGERTON, Staft Correspondent of The Star. | HEADQUARTERS, FIRST BLUE ARMY, FAIRFIELD, Ohlo, May 17.— Crippled by successful aerial bombing attacks upon their capital, Columbus, and upon thelr main supply base and nerve center, Newark, Ohio, Army chiefs of the mythical Red Army today were struggling to regain air superiority along the “international” boundary be- tween the Red and Blue nations from Lake Erie to the Ohio River, The Newark base was subjected to two heavy bombing attacks by Blue bombardment and attack planes yes- terday and has been ruled out of action until tomorow afternoon by the umpires officiating in the Spring maneuvers of the Army Air Corps, in co-operation with ground troops of.the 5th Corps Area, the Ohio and Indiana National | Guard and the organized Reserve. The railroad yards at Columbus and a big Red Army supply base, just east of Co- | lumbus, also were “bombed” and badly | damaged theoretically. Army Organization Hindered. The bombardment attacks have inter- fered seriously with the organization of the Red Ground Army, which are mov- ing forward from Newark and Columbus toward the international boundary, with the expectation of developing a fleld trench system of defense along the high banks east of Big Darby Creek, about 12 miles east of Columbu: The Red ground army, inferfor in atrength to the Biue army in the ratio of 9 Army divisions to 12, is acting on the defensive, although it is not ex- pected that contacts between the ground forces will be established before Tuesday. The Blue first army is organ- izing west of Dayton and preparing to open offensive operations against Co- Jumbus on a 17-mile front from Wood- stock and Milford Center south to Con- cord School and Pancake Chapel. The first Blue army, theoretically, is in con- tact with the sccond army to the north, while the Army cavalry is operating to the south. By Tuesday afternoon, when it is expected the first clash between the ground armies will occur, the headquar- ters of the 1st Corps of the Blue first army will be at Mechanicsburg and of the 2nd_Corps at London, Ohio, with divisional headquarters at Ressaca, Checkery, _Unionville _Center, Lilly Chapel, Lafayette and Plumwood. Forty Planes “Lost” in Day. For the last 24 hours, since the “declaration of war” at 12:01 a.m. yes- terday, there have been continuous aerial ‘actions on the part of the air forces of both armies, represented by more than 200 Army Air Corps planes from all parts of the United States. This morning there was a brief lull while the umpires of the air forces, headed by Maj. W. H. Frank and Ma). P. Bradley, checked on the results of the Zgu'ing, which Tesulted in the theoretica' loss of 40 airplanes during the first aay of operations.

After 24 hours of continuous aerial fighting, in which 25 _airplanes of all types were ruled as having stroyed in action, either before the guns of opposing pilots or the bombardment of flying fields, a short lull in hostilities occurred after midnight this morning while the weary flyers prepared for further attacks this afternoon. Supply Base Is “Wrecked.” The first attack of the “war” was made in theory by seven single-motored bombing planes, which left Fairfield air depot, headquarters of the Blue Army, | shorily after midnight yesterday and | bombed the Red Army Tegulating sta- tion and supply base at Newark, Ohio, inflicting damage which the umpires Tuled put the base out of commission 12 Tours. The first actual attack by air was| made early yesterday morning, when the Blues sent a combined force from the} 3d Attack Group and the 94th Pursuit Squadron against the Red pursuit group, thought to be on an airdrome near Brice, Ohio. The Red pilots, however, cannily had changed their base to fore- stall such an attack and the baffled Blue pilots on their way. back to Fair- fleld “bombed” the big Army depot east | of Columbus, the capital of the Red na- tion, and the railroad yards at Colum- bus, while over enemy territory the 94th Pursuit Group encountered three Red ursuit planes, which were ruled to Rave been shot down. The same fate befell three more Red pursuit planes encountered a few minutes later. Later in the morning the Red pursuit group attacked the airdrome of the Blue attack group, supposed to be near Troy, ©Ohio, destroying 10 of the Blue planes. Red Planes Retallate. The Blues retaliated with & concen- trated attack by a bombardment squad- ron. supported by pursuit and attack | squadrons, on the already crippled Red base at Newark, pounding it so severely that the umpires ruled it out of action for 48 hours. While the bombers dropped their explosive cargoes, in theory, of course, on Newark, the at- tack planes battered down the anti- afrcraft gun crews and the pursuit| planes, high overhead, offered protec- tion from Red pursuit planes. Early yvesterday afternoon the Red bombers attacked the home field of the Blue bombardment force at Fairfield. The Red planes, flying in tight forma- tion for defensive purposes, were fired upon by .50-caliber anti-aircraft bat- teries, but completed their bombing mission, “destroying” nine of the Blue bombers on_the ground. Fortunately the Blue planes had been scattered around the feld in anticipation of such an attack and several of them had been moved out of sight under trees or the Joss might have been much heavier, the umpire ruled.

Berger, prominent in the- atrical circles for many years and man- ager of the Columbia Theater here prior to its transfer to the Loew chain, died sarly today at his home at the Warren Green Hotel, Warrenton, Va., which he operated, after an iliness of several months. Death was the result of a paralytic stroke six months ago. Mr. Berger was born in Baltimore, Md. in 1852, and entered on a stage career as a child. His first appearance was with the then famous Swiss Bell ingers in 1867 at the Old Iron Hall on lower Ponnsylvania avenue. He was with this troupe for many years. Later | he became business manager of the fa- mous comedian, Sol Smith Russell, his brother-in-law, and was with' him through his greatest successes. any of the outstanding stars in the theatrical world later came under Mr. Berger's management, among them be- ing Tim Murphy, Frank Keenan, A. H. Van Buren, aire, Ruth Chatter- cy Haswell, Everett Butterfield, nmond Dailey, George W. Bar- or and his wife, Helen Hayes. His wife, Emily Merville, also was an actress. Afier serving as manager of the Belasco Theater from 1904 to 1906, Mr. Berger organized the stock !company known as the Columbia Players of this city, in association with the late Frank | Metzerott, in 1908, and remained its manager until 1916. It was under his management that Ruth Chatterton was graduated from the company, and also Helen Haves, who made her first ap- pearance with the group as Little Lord Fauntleroy. In 1918 Mr. Berger retired to War- renton, Va., and there opened the War- ren Green Hotel. Mr. Berger's first wife died suddenly about five years ago. He was remar- ried three years ago to Miss Catherine Brant of New York, who survives him. He also is survived by his daughter-in- Mrs. Elizabeth Berger, and a grandchild.
