20-30 IN DRIVE
TO DISCOURAGE
AUTO STEALING
In an effort to aid in the re
duction of juvenile crime, par
ticularly in connection with
stolen cars, the Medford 20-30
club, in conjunction with units
throughout the state, has launch
ed a project to remind drivers to
remove ignition keys from their
machines when they leave.
Cards have been printed stat
ing that 55 per cent of juvenile
crime is aided by stolen cars, 90
per cent of which have keys in
the ignition. These cards, it is
planned, will be placed in auto
mobiles in which the drivers
have left their keys. Clyde
Chamberlain is chairman of the
committee handling the cards.
At last night's regular weekly
dinner-meeting of the club in
Hotel Jackson, it was announced
that the state convention of 20
30 clubs would be held in Med
ford next June, with dates to be
set later. Merritt Hittle will be
in charge of arrangements for
the conclave, assisted by Jack
Hartley.
Appointment of committees
for the coming year was made
by President Harold Wall, as 1

Three of the Upminster's

Survivors said they were machine-gunned
when they took
to lifeboats. The damaged
steamer, however, was kept
afloat by her bulkheads.
Britain acknowledged the
sinking of two ships in the
raids, but the German high com
mand announced eight had been
sent to the bottom.

Gowrie also went down. About
20 of the Oakgrove's crew were
believed to have landed safely.
The admiralty said two Dan
ish ships, the 3.369-ton Ivan
Kondrup and the 955-ton Feddy,
attacked yesterday and pre
viously reported sunk, had been
found afloat and probably
would be brought into port.
Some observers believed the
sudden German attacks might
be the prelude to an aerial
"blitzkrieg," or lightning war,
such as has been threatened by
Berlin many times.
