Thursday, September 21, 1939 The Capitol Journal, Solem, Oregon Min i 1 Gun Practice May Explain Battle Report Fredcrlkshavn, Denmark, Sept. 21 (-Information that Swedish ar tillery units had been practicing on a low island--several miles south of Saroe church offered a possible ex planation today for the sounds of heavy cannonading that yesterday alarmed flsherfolk along the east coast of Jutland. Some of those who heard the fir ing insisted, however, the cannon ading was too heavy to fit this explanation. The sounds, they said, bore a strong resemblance to the thunder of; heavy naval guns audible here dullng the famous World war bat lC6t Jutland (May 31. 1918). . Others pointed out . it is well known that acoustics play strange tricks in these waters There were reports among the fishermen German naval vessels had been observed in the northern waters of Kattegat between Den mark and Sweden, but these reports could not be confirmed British ships also have been re ported recently in the eastern wa ll's of Skagerrak off the northwest coast of Denmark. Those who heard cannonading yesterday said more than 200 shots were fired, and that tne continued for hours. . sounds iContlnutxi Irom Page 6 irlent of district No. I; Mrs. Nota afenderson of Salem, vice chairman of publicity; Mrs. W.

Civic Players To Open Season Tuesday evening, at the home of Ruth Versteeg, the Salem Civic Players who, for several years have favored Salem devotees of the legi timate stage with a number of out standing and successful produc tions, held their first meeting of the season to discuss forthcoming pro ductions and make plans for the coming year. The Players, now in their fifth year, are under the direction of Miss Beulah Graham who, last year, directed such outstanding laugh successes as "Hay Fever" for the Elks' annual charity show, and "Royal Family" that delightfully humorous burlesque of the Barry- more family. Several three act plays are under serious consideration, one of which Is scheduled for production in the near future. Announcement of this play, also the date of tryouts, will be made within a few days. To this tryout, all persons interested in the various angles of amateur play pro duction are invited, as it is report ed that considerable dramatic ac tivity is in prospect. By producing worthwhile plays, dramas, farces, comedies, and one act specialties, the Players intend to make the coming season a very successful one, and one long to be remembered by Salem play-goers. Encouraged by adequate support this group can offer Salem outstanding presentations of the best new plays. JuneSwanson is Bride of H.
