It Is a note that never quite seemed to be pres ent In the enemy's, react Ion to our swift advance from the Chan nel to the outer defenses of the Siegfried line. It may be only propaganda terror. With competent liars in charge of ALL forms of com imunicalion and expression in Germany, we can't Judge very uecuratply by what we hear, i But the best estimates we huve been able to get from the begin nfiift; have indicated that the nazis have kept TWICE as maiiy divisions on the eastern front as on the western. ; 'That also suggests that Rus eluls the enemy the Germans fear and DREAD. THE Luzon enigma remains mi , solved. We take Clark field the great est air field in the western Pa cificwith far less effort and loss than had been expected. NOT, of course, without hard fighting. But the Jap resistance doesn't seem to have been com mexsurale with the importance of the objective. . As this is written, the Meld Is still within range of .lap artillery on the higher ground to the east and enemy shells are falling oil it but the great airport itself seems to be firmly in our possession. By Charles V. Stanton ftPEttlN'G of a weekly teen-age canteen for boys and irirls V of Roseburg high school is scheduled for Friday night of this week, Aileen Peterson, director of the Roseburg recrea tional program reports. Authority has been secured for use or the lower floor arid one side room at the Roseburg armory, where it Is proposed to stage supervised weekly dances, to gether with games and quiet recreation for non-dancers. Public contributions to assist id setting up and furnishing the game room are being requested Some people frown on planned and supervised recreation for youth groups. Recently we read an article in which the author declared the "coddling" being given modern youth under the guisd of correcting juvenile delinquency was pro ducing a generation of "softies." We can remember when not too long ago, some Germans and Japs had the idea Young America was "soft." We imagine they have changed their minds by this time. The writer held the theory that young people are being given too much public attention; that, like the baby which learns it can, be taken out of its crib and petted if it cries long enough and loud enough, youth, given so much public concern, becomes impressed with its own importance and is thereby "spoiled." ; Maybe so, but it sounds like a lot of horsefeathers to us. These are not normal times. Young people are denied many forms of recreation they would be enjoying if it were hot for the war. Parents are busy, In many homes the father and mother are employed throughout the day. The mother probably would not be working except for the war. But under existing circum stances they conie home tired from a day of toil, lacking en ergy for the family entertainment in which they would en gage ordinarily. There are fewer church functions for young people. THere are fewer parties In private homes. Young people are gregarious. They must congregate in small or large groups or gangs. They are full of energy. They crave fun. In these unstable times there is also a sub conscious desire for emotional excitement and danger. Read ing in newspapers and magazines of deeds of bravery, and listening to radio programs exalting heroics, the normal young jjerson, particularly boys who expect soon to be in uniform, daydream of themselves as bemedalled heroes. In some of the weak-willed, inferiority-complexed young sters this emotional stimulation results in delinquency, such as the fad for shoplifting. The papers are filled today I with crimes by youth, automobile thefts, petty larceny, bur glary, extortion and even murder. Yet the boys and girls in our high schools are perform ing marvelously in war work. Without their manpower our nation-wide salvage campaign would collapse completely. I They sell nit astonishing amount of war bonds. School bands, ! dram corps and strutters are on immediate call formally kind! of civic rally or program. Certainly youths with that kind of spunk deserve some eward, and no better reward can be given, in our opinion, than to supply their needs for. recreation and entertainment. Roseburg has an organized recreational program, red- ral assistance has been given, because it is recognized that communities swollen by populations gained through essen tial industry are unable, in most case3, to finance such ac tivities without outside aid. Mrs. Peterson has been doing a fine work in organizing athletics for adult and youth groups. Hobby classes are prov ing very successful. She has now worked out plans for a weekly get-to-gcther for boys and girls of high school age- She has funds for all purposes except furnishings. She needs money with which to provide tables, chairs, lamps, etc., for a game room and lounge. Civic clubs have been asked to help, but probably some individuals would also like to join in spon sorship. ram. Vour contribution, left at the Roseburg chamber ol commerce office, or mailed to Mrs. Aileen Peterson at that address, would be greatly appreciated.

When the shortwave broadcasts don't come through, Fred Morrison, who is head of the news-gathering staff, will be standing by to pinch hit. It looks like Mr. Lewis is taking time by the forelock this time and Is going to be in on the ground floor for any major news breaks. He is the one, you know, who always goes vacationing just before a red-hot story breaks and has to come rushing back to work. Maybe by the time you read this, you will have heard his first overseas broadcast, so it won't be news. .
