Maiden who wee «¡if- ' •t the time it was taken by the Jape, received a letter this week which in ' dicates that George is alive, whatever else «an or cannot be said of how he is faring. The letter, which tells the whole story, is reprinted below: Saturday, October 81, will most crucial of games ta the eon- fere— running for both Coquille and Marshfield. The Pirate* will be with-, out the service* of their star ground gainer Kenny Maine, but from the looks of the score they ran up against tbe Corvallis Spartans, they can do just as well without him. The Bay 11 has “given the axe" to five teams in eoneeeutive order: Washington High of Portland 7-0, Medford 14-0, Astoria 20-0; Myrtle Point 24-0, and Corvallis High 84-12. They have just one mar on their record and that made by a rebellious crew of cavemen from Granta Paa* who played the Golden Tide to a standstill and came ferth with a 7-7 tie, ending Marsh field's invincibility. The Pirate* will be out for blood Saturday, well re- membering the mangling* the Red Devil* have handed them for the past five years, and when they once take the lead, it to to be expected that they will lay it on hot and heavy for „the entire game. The local* have been doing some heavy scrimmaging the last few days and afe in tip top shape for Saturday’s .battle. Last Satur day the all-sUy Seniors playing a fullfledged game against the other members'of the squad came through with a 18-8 victory, a triumph won last play for the game by half ’ McCracken who sprinted 35 yard* for the final telly. Although the Pirates have all the indication* of a victory over the locals the absence of Maine will definitely cut their scoring card down Co Co- qulle’s sise and may prove to be an upset which if it were possible would be the biggest over-throw among the the Oregon prep schools. The probable starting line-up for Marshfield to: Le, Ford; It, Clark; lg, Scott; e, Kinney; rg, Button; rt, Morin; re, Schniederman; q. Moore; rh, O’Neil; Ih, Schuttpeltx; f, Mofine. A tentative line-up for Coquille: Le, Martin; It, Hurst; lg, R. Kline; c, Moore;, rg, Allen; rt. Alterne; re, Hickam; q, Howe; rh, Irvin; lh, Mc Cracken; f, McCarthy. To Whom It May Concern: My name is Morris Levin; I am 28 I years old and work at the Standard Oil Refinery here in Richmond. 1 tell you this so that you may have some idea of who is writing this let ter to you. Last night (Oct. 23) I tuned in on k the short wave broadcast from Japan, as I sometimes do and, following their new* in English, the Jap announcer read off some name* of prisoner* of ’ war captured at Wake Island. I al , ways listen very carefully to the name* Tead and frequently Jot them down so that I can get in touch with relative* of these people. One of the names read off last night by the announcer was I am <u*e sure, as follows: George W. Maiden, 465 West 6th St., Coquille, Oregon. It is rather difficult sometime* to i understand the little yellow men so I must say that I am not sura that the spelling of the name is corseet but the address la correct, I am sure. I write this to you in the hope that this message is of some comfort to you but wish to state that It is just some message that I heard on the radio and I- cannot' vouch for the truth of it. The Jap announcer mere ly stated that George W. Maiden was one of the civilian prisoners captured when Wako Island fell to the Japs. Yours very truly, Morri* Levin.
