BILL LAAS IS
ON IWO JIMA
Iwo Jima (Delayed!—Staff Ser
geant William F. “Cotton” Laas,
who says he's one of Hermiston,
Oregon’s few Marines, is a mem
ber of a crack Leatherneck torpe
do bomber outfit on this island.
The 30-year-old Oregon ord
nanceman. a ground crewman
with the Fourth Marine Air Wing,
was picked to come in with the
forward echelon which flew 700
miles from the Marianas to estab
lish their new base on Motoyama
airstrip.
Cotton's job is to arm the tor
pedo planes for their round-the-
clock patrols.
Living in a dugout camp just in
front of the muzzles of the big
guns, he has had little sleep in his
spare time. On the field he has
to keep a continual schedule, often
working 24-hour periods without
rest.
When he returns to his old base
in the Marianas, he will go back
to his old hobby of making ice
cream for the boys in his camp.
A 1933 graduate of Hermiston
High school, Laas played football
at the University of Oregon in '35
and '36. He is a brother of Pete
Lass, former owner of the PAG

WOMAN'S GROUP
HOLDS MEETING
in the Upper Room. These spirit-
filled Christians then spoke in
foreign tongues, as the Spirit gave
them utterance. But what did it
all mean? What should Pentecost
mean to us today? This is the
subject of the sermon for Sunday
morning in the Christian Church:
"The Meaning of Pentecost”.
Here is our schedule:
Morning worship at 11:00 a. m.
Bible school at 10:00 a. m.
Christian Endeavor at 7:00 p.m.
Evening worship and baptismal
service at 8:00 p. m.
Wednesday evening Bible stu
dy at 7:30 p. m. and choir practice
at 8:30.
Our Bible School attendance
last Sunday was 140. You should
have your children in our Bible
classes, and you should be in one
of our adult classes yourself. The
strength of life comes out of the
convictions of
life.

“America’s supply of tin in the
United States today is far less
than it was when this country en
tered the war in 1941, making it
more imperative than ever that
all used tin cans be saved, pre
pared and salvaged,” Mrs. Walter
Hamm, chairman of the local sal
vage committee, said today.
The War Production Board re
ports this nation is confronted
with the fact that it has no tin
mines and its stockpiles are rap
idly diminishing as military re
quirements cut deeper and deeper
for war supplies and equipment,
Mrs. Hamm said.

UMATILLA HAS
FINE PICKUP
In the recent United Nations
clothing drive, Umatilla contribu
ted a considerable amount of
clothing to the collection, under
the chairmanship of Mrs. C. F.
Knudsen.
The material was

was packed for shipment.
Due to the fact that the local
chairman was not notified of the
