poured Into Shanghai.
Area Cloned Off
The Klangwan area on the north
er rV fringe of Shanghai, scene of
major Chinese -Japanese fighting In
1032, was rapidly closed off.
Members of the peace preservation
corps (militarized police) patrolled
the roads armed with rifles and hand
grenades, and heaped up sandbag
barricades.
The Klangwan and Chapel areas,
on the north and northwest, border
Japanese military headquarters, the
Japanese community, and the north
ern edge of the International settle
ment. Chinese said tonight's clash came
when a Japanese marine motor truck
attempted to enter the Chinese gov
ernment's Hunajao airdrome In the
western environs of the city.
Sentries challenged the marines,
but they refused to halt. Then the
Chinese opened fire.
Even at the time of the new cla&h.
responsible circles said the Japanese
army apparently believed the time
had come for peace negotiations with
China on the Japanese armya' own
terms.

Mr. Stevens opened a studio here
and organized the Med ford and
Klamath Falls Gleemen. He was al
ways generous In giving of his talent
and made public appearances when
ever called upon. He helped many
causes by appearing on the recital
platform and hts singing and con
genial personality made for him
many friends throughout southern
Oregon. He worked untiringly for the
advancement of m.islc In this com
munity. Mr. Stevens decided early In life
upon a military career but was
thwarted Just as he was subsequently
during the world war. After com
pleting high school and three years
at the University of Minnesota, he
received an appointment to West
Point. He passed the entrance ex
amination but failed to meet the
physical requirements.
Possessed of a splendid baritone
voice, he then Joined the Andrews

life's work. He sang leading roles
with the Dekovan Opera company
and the Harry W. Savage and other
New York companies. He sang for
two years with the St. Louts Munici
pal Opera company.
With the opera companies, Mr.
Stevens toured the country numerous
times and became widely known as
en operatic actor and singer of the
first rank. Then the world war
brought down the curtain on his op
eratic career.
Mr. Stevens was born at Spring
Valley. Minn., on February 26, 1873,
the son of Capt. and Mrs. Albert
Stevens. His father was a veteran of
the Civil war.
