The figure Is slightly lower than at the corresponding period last year, but It was stated that an accurate stabilized enrollment total couldn't be determined until completion nf the fruit season, releasing many stu dents to return to their schools. Many Students Working E. H. Hedrlck, superintendent, ex plained that It would be at least a month before a comprehensive com parative enrollment figure could be produced.

Slow Ad.ance Advancing French troops which have been feeling their way slowly eastward reported forces from both sides were obliged to fall back at times during both Infantry and artillery actions. Heavy fighting was reported near Rornbach as the French troops pushed eastward In an attempted encircling movement. Ram hampered operations along the 100-mlle front between the Mo selle and Rhine rivers, but military dispatcher spoke of "substantial gains,, Saarbruecken Is located midway on the front not far from the French border. , German reinforcements were re ported pouring Into the areas be hind Saarbruecken and opposite the French city of Strasbourg In north eastern France. British Not In tine The French government declared officially there were "several hun dred thousand" British troops In France. Officials said, however, the British had not yt.t engaged In action, pointing out that It would take some time to concentrate sup- , piles and dispose the units along the front. French officials contrasted the appearance of the new troops with what they described as "the handful of heroes" who were thrown into the breach in the early days of the World war, In an effort to stem the German advance from Belgium. (A dispatch from Algeclras, Spain, reported 10 English troop transports passed Gibraltar en route to France. Two British ships stopped at Gi braltar, one to disembark several thousand soldiers to reinforce the garrison, the other to unload war supplies.) f i Medford Lodge No. 103, A F. & A. M.

OF SEALED BY L (Continued from Page One.) when the enemy planes flew over so low I could almost count the rivets In their fuselages. Hotels of Lwow were crowded, mostly with staff officers. Most cars now being used were to take officers' families to the frontier. The hotels are serving one-piste meals because of a shortage of sup plies. Hard liquor Is not permitted anywhere In Poland because It has been turned over to the military for medical use. Newspapers are limited to one sheet printed on both sides.' Terror In Country Terror Is almost as great In the countryside as in the cities. Observ ers charged that German planes mske constant attacks, not only on lines of fleeing refugees, but also on small villages which have no anti-aircraft protection or long-range guns. Everywhere I go I hear criticism from the man in the street of the PoleB' leadership snd examples of alleged lack of preparation. For In stance, a woman medical expert from Warsaw told me the first tralnload of wounded was sidetracked for a full hour before any of the seriously wounded and dying men received any attention. The Lwow radio Is constantly broadcasting appeals to citizens cap able of bearing arms not to leave, as "a definite defense will be made." Nevertheless, refugees have been pouring out of the city in a steady stream s!nce the .first bombardment September 1, many of them of military age. Center Defense At Border Most of the Polish air forces or what remains of It has been sta tioned near the Rumanian frontier In the hope of fighting off German attempt, to smash Poland's lifeline railway bringing oil and other sup plies from Rumania. But it Is a good bet Germin filers could spot the Polish planes for bomb attacks and, before you read this, that may have happened. German bombers, even as X write this, are raining explosives on the oil and alcohol refineries. The table quivers under my hand as the earth trembles. Outside there is the din of sirens, antiaircraft batteries and the thunder of bombardment on the edge of the city. The Germans are using shrapnel bombs, I am told, and also some sort of concussion bombs. One of the latter dropped Into a three-story building. The building collapsed as though the mortar had been pulled out from between the bricks. CITY HEADS DURANCE OF ADEQUATE WPA HELP A group of Jackson county repre sentatives returned this morning from Portland where they conferred yesterday with B. J. Griffith, ad ministrator of W. p.
