2 The News-Review, Roseburg, RED GUNS ARE BIG ONES Resembling a Daniel Boone squirrel gun is this 20-mm. anti-tank rifle captured from North Korean Red troops "somewhere in Korea." Sgt. Hal Gamble, left, of San Francisco, .and Capt, James Constantino of Knoxville, Tenn., look over the unique weapon. The anti-tank gun fires the same size bullet as some U. S. fighter planes. 0 "It was surprising," wrote Jim my Whipple in a letter quoted in a recent issue of the News-Review, "to see how clean the park (Valley Forge) was when the scouts left. After one week of camping the grounds were as clean or cleaner than when we ar.rivcd." How many adults, stopping by the wayside for a brief picnic or quick lunch leave the spot "as clean or cleaner" lhan when they paused there? How many people driving along our beautiful winding roads remember to use the trash barrels spaced along the highway? In the beautiful canyon south of Cottage Grove, and all the way along south on 99 for many miles, are innumerable turnouts where one sees cars halted. Who picks up the trash? The highway truck picks up most of it yet the truck is supposed to service only the trash-barrels. v. , Wouldn't it be wonderful if the Boy Scouts of America could think up some kind of a drive by which llicy could inspire their elders to leave camp and picnic spots "as clean or cleaner" than when they stopped there I There is a $50 penalty for dump ing trash along the highway.

The kind who learned as children to 'pick up' after them selves, and to put rubbish in prop er places, will do so, probably, without any 'drive' to urge them. The kind whose parents permitted them to throw things over the fence or out the car window or anywhere at all to get rid of it, will continue to litter the highways and the beau ty spots with anything from dis carded bottles to big boxes of cans. . . We were driving along the other day and the car ahead 'dumprd' some klcenex out the window. The wind caught it just right so it whipped in our open windows. Of course the one who pitched it out the window 'didn't think' . . . didn't notice, either. One time a group of children at the "secret society' age were in spired to have a club called "H K- u n and for some time the neighborhood was free of litter because the members of that club were "Helping Keep California Beautiful."

Above is the Russian-built T-34, used by North Koreans. It has an 88-millimeter, long-barrel gun, similar to the famous hard-hitting 88's that Nazi paniers used so devastatingly in World War II. Our best medium fanks, the Sherman, M-24 with a short barrel, 75-mm. cannon, and the Pershing M-26, with a short-barrel, 90-mm. gun, are ac curate and fast-firing, but far out-ranged by the long-barreled Red guns of similar size.
