Spec- tators laughed at it, but with the true British sporting instinct hoped that it would at least have a sporting chance. Last night, wounded men back from the line forgot their pain and what part their battalion played during the battle in telling what the “tanks” did. Notes were compared between the ac- tions of ‘“our’” and “your” tank. Co- operation with the infantry according to prearrangement, the grotesque creatures played the part set for them under the control of their invisible crews, which were their brain centers.
