Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to one and all.

Axis Army Routed (Parker) – 2-3
2 Enemy Ships Hit – 3-4
Allies in Tunisia Spar with Enemy – 4-5
War News Summarized – 4
Hitler Says 1943 May be Difficult – 5
Enemy Bases Hit Near Guadalcanal (Hurd) – 6
Our Airmen Bag 20 Planes at Lae (Durdin) – 6-7
Guadalcanal’s Dead in Hallowed Graves; Cemetery is Devoutly Tended by Buddies – 7
Says New Weapons Make Us Toughest (Shalett) * – 8
The Texts of the Day’s Communiques on the Fighting in the Various War Theatres – 9-11

* There is one weapon which, with typical Yankee impudence, already has been nicknamed the “Bazooka.”

The writer is not allowed even to hint at its nature, its construction or its usage, but some day the stories of victories made possible through the use of the “Bazooka” should write some chapters in this war which will make the most hair-raising exploits of the last conflict look tame.

Must be some kind of death-ray machine – HJS.
