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.

"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. May-

be it's the way people have been
brought up. 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."

licking in Korea, and the reason, military experts say, is that they're out-gunned by Soviet
made medium and heavy tanks. 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.

'WASHINGTON, July 18 (Pi
Ma., Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, sel
ective service director, Monday
raised the possibility of another
draft call next month. He also said
draft regulations may be needed
if the world situation worsens.
In: a prepared statement, Her
shey said:
"I see no reason to believe that
there will not be another draft
call for delivery of men after the
September call is filled.
"And if things continue to grow
worse, it may be necessary to
tighten the law concerning exemp
tions of veterans and the regu
lations concerning dependence."

increases were made necessary by
the continuing rise on the cost of

company purchases wool from all
parts of the world.
