I 'rivers were pre sent from all points of tho district between Medford and rortland. Walter Smith of Portland, director of safety fvr tho division, was the principal speaker. One of the most Interesting fea tures was a debate between loams representing the city drivers end those who drive the highways be tween cities on the queutlou of which has the most hazardous work. Krunk Drav.lllo und Fd Smith representing the city driv ers, won. The higliwuy drivers were represented by Clarence enthrall and Bam Steele. A gen eral discussion of saloty practices followed. Lunch was also i Joyed. A similar mcetlug. Willi a dobuto and motion pictures scheduled for the program, will be held late in I February. fllli case of Finland vs. Soviet Itussla looks pretty simple. Any honest Jury would bo back with a vordiet In five minutes a Hading ot guilty UKulust Uusslu. You could throw the book ut Joe Stalin, und thero wouldn't bo much In tho way of crime that bo has missed. Murder, urson, espionage, robbery armed, fraud of all kinds, sabotage they're all written against Russia's record. No mat ter liow you try, it's pretty hard to find nny mitigating circumstances In the Russian invasion. Yet, coinmiiiilHt-lnflucnccd at tempts to Jutlfy tbe attempted rav ishment of a thriving, democratic nation are still obvious in the Unit ed Slates. 1'ortraynl of Finland ari a bloody, feudallslic statu bus been used by Stalin's American friends to sway sympathy uway from Flu land.

CHAl'THK XVII First Llcuttfhnnt lloynton. 9th In fantry, lay aurawled on tbe ground, bla eyos strained into the first graying light of approaching dawn. Above tbe thunder of tbe enemy artillery preparation be could feel the pounding of bis heart against the drums of bis car. Behind that curtain of fire and thunder Boyuton knew the Van uasaek lufantr-y was moving for went to tbe assault. From his po sition out in front of the American outpost line it was Boynton's job to discover tihe uttuck and fall lutck to the outpost with twenty riflemen of bis who lay Immediate ly behind him. That roar of artillery .censumod all existence as Van Hassek's hlgb- explosive shells hammered the second division's sectors from front HneB to artillery positions. Boynton's eyes caught an In stant's glimpse of infantry, men silhouetted against' the sbect-llghtn- lug or artillery flashes. Mot more than a hundrod yards awnv ho es timated the enemy infantrymen. He slipped tho safely lock of bis service automatic and lifted tho weapon in .front nf his face. His men. long tense and roadv. filled the -bulls of their new semi-automatic rifles against their shoulders and waited. Like a ship looming suddenly out of tblck fog there came into view the weaving shadows that were the flesh and blood of moving infantry. A spurt of flame leaped from the uiuxr.le of Boyutou's pistol, n released tbe pent-up rage of twenty Guraud rifles which sent a stream of lead pouring into those shadows of tne night. in tne switt lumblo of action Boyntou caught the fall of wound ed wen, beard the erics of nalii. and the shrill of commanders' whistles, the bark of subalterns above the bellowing artillery. Rifle flushes stabbed the graying dawn as tne enemy sprawled to the gromid and fired back. Bovnton hugged the earth only long enough to aausty ntmselt tnat It was an attack wave, not a mere patrol, he niiu encountered; then he fell hack, hlB men firing intermittently as they ran, to the shelter oi lox holes ia the outpost. U'he outpost line, lightlv bold. poured lead, from its seml-automa-Ucs and -machine guns. When' it found(llself jconfrontetL by superior forces, its defenders promptly re treated to tbe main line of resist ance which ran a rugged, irregular line or troncnes und centers of re sistance over a front of ten thou sand yards. . Van Hassek's infantry. In waves of men that reached across the whole front, struck the main line of resistance just as visibility ex posed the attack. Lieutenant Boyn tou, oacK in his ooinpany a organ ized strong-point ill the Oth's Infan try centers of roslstauce. coolly observed the offuct of his com pany's fire and Uio development of tne enemy attack. Ing to his voice tho full strength of his lungs. "Up and at 'em!" he cried. "To bell with the swine!" His voice rose above the storm. A second time he raised his vclce, then he staggered drunkenlyr spun half around, and fell as conscious ness sapped from bla brain aud bis life snuffed out. Having committed themselves to this folly of frontal attack, the Van Hassek commanders fed in reserve after reserve regardless of cost in their determination to break through with us llltle delay as pos sible. Once they succeeded 1n driving a wedge deep enough into the American center, they knew that the whole American sector would roll up in a chaos of defeat ed regiments. But to accomplish this, Vun Hus- sek's Infantry must drive through succeeding lines. Capturing one, 0. S. C Maintains Basketball Lead Sixth StraKihf Victory Won, Wwfcs 5s!R5 !?; U- O.
