'Wild Bill' Cummings Promoted to Colonel
Hugh Donahue was a week end guest.
Lt. Col. William J. "Wild Bill" Cummings, Jr., student at the University in 1935, has been promoted to full colonelcy, according to a dispatch from the U. S. army eighth air force fighter station. The promotion was announced by the eighth air force fighter command headquarters in England.
Col. Cummings is the son of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Cummings, of Lawrence. He is commanding officer of a Thunderbolt group.
As a captain, he was operations officer of the 24th pursuit group, based on Clark field, when the Japs struck. He was a member of the legendary 'Bamboo fleet' which ferried supplies to Bataan, picked up marooned units of defenders, and operated a shuttle service from Mindanao to Bataan in the closing days of the peninsula campaign.
He left a Manila hospital bed with a temperature of 103 degrees from malaria to help evacuate wounded and fever-ridden patients from the city as the Japanese advanced. He headed an operational training unit in Australia for six months in 1942. For a while he was based on New Guinea.
When he returned to the United States, he was sent to the Army Air Force School of Applied Tactics at Orlando, Fla., where combat veterans were training new pilots and exchanging experiences. He was awarded the distinguished flying cross in the Philippines for a series of hazardous missions.

Approximately 550 persons have visited the popular Wiggins exhibit in Spooner-Thayer museum since it was opened to the public Nov. 1.
The oil paintings, in the north galley on second floor, will be featured through December.
Most of those who have seen the oil paintings of Sidney M. Wiggins, well-known American artist of New York City, have been residents of Lawrence. More out-of-town visitors have come from Topeka than from any place else, but a large number of those interested in the exhibit have been visiting parents of men in the army and navy units at the University. Many visitors are persons from the Sunflower Ordinance plant. On a recent Sunday, an army officer spent his time between trains in Lawrence at the museum.
