Butte Falls district youth, entered a plea of guilty in Justice court yesterday to dynamiting fish, and was given 30 days in the county jail, and fined $25 and costs. In a written statement to the court, Jones admits ticing six sticks of stolen dynamite to gether, lighting a fuse, and throwing the explosive into Little Butte creek near Cobleigh bridge. Jones further says no fish were killed. His purpose was "to get trout for food." Jones is held in the county jail awaiting grand jury action on a charge of burglary not in a dwelling. With Douglas Butts, also of Butte Falls, he is accused of robbing the cabins of P. K. Nailcy and others near Butte Falls, and taking various articles. Butts is not in custody, and his whereabuots are un known to the authorities. CAMERON HEADS Clotlng time (ur Too Lata to Clas sify Ada la 1 :30 p. m.

Meeting with the 20-30 club In the Hotel Jackson last night were nine members of the Med ford Active club, and it was this group that put forth a request for the derby prize. In a large glass bowl they carried swum two tiny cattisn which, the Activians claimed, should repre sent the best catch of the post poned derby and win the first prize. The 20-30 club, carefully con sidering the unexpected situa tion, finally decided to withhold the derby prize until the official event takes place Sunday, but to keep their guests in good humor they presented Gerald T. Latham, instigator of the Active club plot, with the large cake which was to have been given to the queen of the derby last Sun day. "Anyhow." said a 20-30 club spokesman who prefers to re main anonymous, "how do we know those two miniature cat fish were actually caught last Sunday. Those Activians might have obtained the catfish Mon day or Tuesday, which would automatically make them ineli gible for the prize. Anyway, the derby was postponed, so whether the fish were caught Sunday or last Christmas really makes no difference. The prize is still in tact and will be kept that way until next Sunday, regardless of anything the Active club may try to pull off. Ti OFF BY Civilian Defense Coordinator Asks National Contribu tion of Scrap Aluminum Washington. June 25. IP Mayor Fiorella LaGuardia got going on his first assignment to duty as civilian defense coordi nator today with a characteris tically vigorous and unexpected call for a nation-wide collection of scrap aluminum. Without bothering to prepare an advance copy of his address, the New York executive broad cast a plea last night to citizens for contributions of everything, from old pots and pans to wash ing machines and golf clubs, and set a goal of 20,000,000 pounds enough aluminum, he said, to provide for 2.000 fighter planes. State, county and city offic ials, aided by civic, patriotic, and youth organizations, will head up the campaign. Reception de pots will be furnished without charge to the government by the national waste material dealers. Contributions will be called in on July 21. LaGuardia predicted the alu minum drive, proposed by the office of production manage ment on the basis of "very suc cessful" test collections recently in Richmond, Va., and Madison, Wis., would be "a great deal of fun." He urged organizations inter ested in participating to contact state and local defense councils and "report for duty." State governors will be asked to direct organizational setups with the OPM acting as liaison to arrange final details of collection. ELKS SEEK DOZEN YOUTHS TO ENLIST A short time ago Medford Elks lodge announced it would assist the local Navy recruiting office in securing enlistments in conformity with a state-wide activity of the Oregon State Elks association. Quota for the Med ford lodge is 12 enlistments, ac cording to an announcement to day by Lewis Ulrich, chairman of the committee, H. O. Purucker, in charge of publicity in the campaign, has secured motion pictures of the navy which will be shown by the local recruiting officer in the Elks Temple immediately following the regular lodge ses sion Thursday night. The pic tures will acquaint the Elks with activities of the Navy so that they may talk intelligently to the young men they have in mind to contact for enlistment. Purucker stated that the navy officials had assured the Elks lodges that the group secured through their efforts would be sworn in with appropriate cere mony and the company would be kept intact until their train ing was complete and would be known as the "Oregon Elks Company Russian Resistance Holds Hope of Foiling Nazi Traps (This dally feature, conducted by DeWltt MaeKeniie. I being written in bis absence on vacation by Fred Vanderschmldt.) Out of the vast confusion of the German-Russian front come some definite indications of hard resistance and counter-attack by mechanized units of the Red army. It is by such tactics, pro vided they are effective, that the bulk of the Soviet armed force can be cava to fight for many day.. The primary objective of the Nazi blitzkrieg is to trap huge sections of the Soviet army by the same tactics used in Belgium and France: by pounding panzer spearheads through the front lines and deep behind them, there to form triangles or circles of steel through which the Reds cannot withdraw. In France, the allied armies did not have the tanks or guns to smash these spearheads before the process of encirclement was complete; the Soviets, obviously, are using a wealth of merchanized material in the bufferlands of the west for just that purpose. Presumably these fierce de fense tactics are to permit the slow withdrawal of great masses of the Red army to strong posi tions deep in Russia, where Ger many's chosen war of movement might be brought to an end and a large-scale counter-offensive organized. Granted the Russians are at least partly successful in such a strategy, prolonged resistance will depend, in large measure, on the staying power of the Soviet government and the unity of the people. Once Hitler has gained the rich territory he seeks in the west of Russia and has opened a road to Iran and thence back into the middle-east, he is likely to count on collapse of the Sov iet government. In Mein Kampf, he foresees ultiinate collapse of what he calls "the Jewish domi nation in Russia" and he says this will be the end of the Rus sian state. Since he cannot hope to police all of the Soviet union. it is likely that he envisages a vast "unoccupied zone" which he will dominate with a "Ger man upper stratum." For in Mein Kampf he says: Thus have innumerable mighty empires of the earth been creat ed. Inferior nations with Ger man organizers and lords as leaders have more than once ex panded into powerful state structures, and endured as long as the racial nucleus of the con structive state-race maintained itself. For centuries Russia drew nourishment from this German ic nucleus of its superior strata of leaders." had acted as O'Brien's house keeper.
