William King of Gold Hill,
Mrs. Artie Dorn, Medford,
Frank Casteel Injured.
LIVESTOCK
Three persons were confined
in Sacred Heart hospital today
and another was released after
being treated for minor injuries
as the result of a head-on auto
mobile crash on the Crater Lake
highway a half mile the other
side of Four-Corners late Wed
nesday afternoon. None was ap
parently seriously Injured.
William King, 73, of Gold Hill
suffered chest and face injuries
and his son's mother-in-law, Mrs.
Artie Dorn, 73, of 309 Chestnut
street, sustained a broken left
leg, bruises and cuts.
The other machine contained
Jack Cantwell, 24, of Gold HiU
and his father-in-law, Frank Cas
teel of Central Point Cantwell
was released from the hospital
after receiving treatment for
face cuts, while Casteel was still
receiving medical attention to
day. King, accompanied by Mrs.
Dorn, was driving to Eagle Point
to obtain a Christmas turkey,
state police said, while the car
containing Cantwell and Casteel
was traveling toward Medford.
State police quoted King and
other witnesses as saying the
Cantwell machine was weaving
all over the road prior to the col
lision. King told police that he
slowed down when he noticed
the oncoming car on the wrong
side of the road, and that when
the latter machine failed to re
turn to its own traffic lane he
swerved his own car into the
southbound lane in an attempt
to avoid the collision. Just then,
police said they were told by
King, the Cantwell car cut back
into its rightful lane and the
cars collided head-on. Both ma
chines were badly damaged.
State police said they were
making a further investigation of
the accident.
Rooney Retains Box Office Lead;
Gable Second, Comedy Team Third
Hollywood, Dec. 26. WV-Clark Gable and Gary Cooper may
catch mamma's eye and dad may go for Betty Grable or Gene
Tierney, but it's the kids who rule the box office.
For the third straight year,
irrepressible Mickey Rooney tops
a national exhibitors poll as the
movies leading box office attrac
tion. Before him, little Shirley
Temple led four successive years.
1935-38. In the 10 years the
Motion Picture Herald has con
ducted the poll not a matinee
idol nor a glamour girl ever has
won. Marie Dressier lea in ine
first two, 1932-33. and Will
Rogers was first in 1934.
Clark Gable, who's been
among the top 10 every year.
was second and the comedy team
of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello
was third.
Only two actresses are In the
list, Bette Davis, eighth, and
Judy Garland tenth. Judy's
career has been rather closely
linked with Rooney's. Two of
her three pictures this year were
with Mickey.
Bob Hope is fourth; Spencer
Tracy fifth; Gene Autry sixth;
Gary Cooper, seventh and James
Cagney ninth.
Autry topped the cowboys a
fifth successive year, followed by
William Boyd, Roy Rogers,
Charles Starrett and Smiley
Burnett.
TAKE HEAVY TOLL
AS
(Br the Associated Press)
Adolf Hitler's Crimean armies
were reported today to have lost
20,000 killed in a six-day battle
at the approaches of Sevastopol,
long-besieged Russian naval base.
and soviet dispatches listed an
additional 13.900 German slain
on other battlefields during the
Christmas holidays.
With the steam-roller red army
counteroffensive sweeping on
unchecked, advices reaching
London said the Russians had
recaptured the strategic Oka
river city of Kaluga, 110 miles
southwest of Moscow. Kaluga
is 65 miles northeast of Tula,
where the Germans for weeks
attempted to break through to
Moscow.
Nail Flank Periled
In the north, on the Leningrad
front, soviet troops were cred
ited with recapturing Oskyue
after a 62-mile drive from
Tikhvin, 110 miles southeast of
Leningrad, and it was apparent
that this thrust, if continued,
would soon threaten the right
flank of the German siege
forces before Leningrad itself.
A Berlin broadcast reported
that the fuehrer again spent
Christmas among his soldiers
and described it as a "serious'
and "more of a wartime Christ
mas" than before.
On the North African front,
British headquarters reported
that more than 13.000 axis pris
oners had already been removed
to the rear and that British
troops were inflicting heavy
losses on German Gen. Erwin
Rommel's forcrs attempting to
retreat near Agedabia, 60 miles
south of British-captured Ben
gasi.
lnct possibility in view of climb
ing costs of operation, taxes and
the inability to lift rates suf
ficiently to bridge the gap.

LA FOLLETTE RAPS
1TEMPT TO CUT
NON-DEFENSE COIN
Abolition of CCC, NYA And
FSA Would Knock Props
From Special Structure.
Washington, Dec. 26. CP)
In a sharply critical minority re
port, Senator LaFollette (Prog.-
W.s.) charged today that the
joint economy committee's rec
ommendation for a $1,131,079,
000 cut in non-defense spending
was hasty and unwarranted.
LaFollette asserted that com
mittee suggestions for the aboil
tion of the civilian conservation
corps, the national youth admin
istration and the farm security
administration would "knock
some of the major props of fed
eral support out from under our
special structure in the lower
income levels." He alone signed
the report.
Earlier Senator George CD.
Ga.) had expressed the opinion
the United States would be
lucky if it could finance one
third of the cost of its war with
the axis out of current revenues,
despite projected tax increases.
Unity Argument
Charging that the proposed
cuts would come at a time when
"national unity" requires main
tenance of high morale among
"the unfortunate one-third of
our population which has just
cause for dissatisfaction with an
economic and social system that
has treated them shabbily."
LaFollette said it was estimated
that 71 per cent the value of
military contntt had been
placed in 12 statja. 9. said this
threatened ma? communities
with more distress than ever be
fore. George, who is chairman of
the senate finance committee,
told reporters that the cut rec
ommended yesterday for non-defense
expenditures, coupled with
such new taxes as congress may
vote In 1942, stiU would leave
the budget far out of balance.

A British Port, Dec. 26. (IP)
The largest contingent of Brit
ish empire airmen ever to cross
the Atlantic arrived here today
to join the British, Canadian
New Zealand and Australian
squadrons which already are
waging the anti-axis air war on
the European front.
En route from a Canadian
port, their convoy was escorted
part of the way across the North
Atlantic by United States naval
units.
More than half of the airmen
fliers as well as ground per
sonel were Canadians. The
rest of the contingent included
RAF men trained in Canada,
United States members of the
royal Canadian air force, Nor
wegians from the "Little Nor
way" training base near Toron
to, and Australians and New
Zealanders.
They said their crossing had
been uneventful.
