The 37 members of the senior
high drum corps have clever new
uniforms as the result of an all
out effort by the school sewing
classes during the past seven
weeks. The classes, under the
direction of Mrs. Alexander Mc
Donald, clothing supervisor, com
pleted the uniforms with a mini
mum of time and money and a
maximum of success, according
to those who saw the girls wear
them for the first time in the
Decoration Day parade.
The outfits are of red faille
with black trim and black but
tons and military in cut. For the
three twirlers, Jo Ann Humph
ries, Virginia Hawley and Bar
bara McGrew, they are red satin
with the same black trim, and
for the majorette, Opal Barnhart,
there is a snappy white satin
with red trim.
Everything from selection of
material to the final press was
completed during the regular
sewing class period, Mrs. McDon
ald said, "and I really believe,"
she added, "that the girls who
produced them were Just as
thrilled over them as the corps
members who will wear them."

ance. Maurice L. Tedrow, fire

rangers may give special in
structions to their respective
groups of guards.
Ten new guard positions
have been authorized for various
points in the forest and three
suppression crews of 10 men
each will be organized during
June, each crew to be stationed
in areas of high fire hazard and
equipped to take immediate sup
pression action. Enrollees at
CCC Camp South Fork will also
be given special training for
fire work.
In recognition of the serious
problems connected with fire
control this year, Harry P. Gay
lor, assistant forest supervisor at
Grand Mesa National Park, Col
orado, has been detailed to assist
in fire protection in the Rogue
River National Forest. Gaylor
will contact guards at their sta
tions during the summer months
for follow-up training, will in

VOTERSlEAGUE
SERVICE PLANS
TOLD AT MEET
The new "war-time service"
program of the League of Wo
men Voters was outlined at a
meeting of officers of the Jack
son county branch Saturday af
ternoon. As explained by Mrs.
Leonard Carpenter and Mrs. F.
G. Hughes, delegates to the na
tional and state convention of
the league, the new program is
being carried on as a means ot
disseminating information about
current governmental activities
to the general public.
National league leaders state
that since ordinary government
al activities tend to be neglected
in time of national stress, such
as the present war, the new pro
gram was felt to be essential.
Locally the program will be
handled by a committee headed
by Mrs. Justin Smith.
In addition to the convention
reports, the new study programs
of the state and national leagues
were read and discussed and
plans were made for re-organization
of the board and summer
activities of the league. Consid-
ation is being given to replacing
the former departmental study
groups with the activities of the
new war-time service program.

Harbor, ran Into thundering
shellfire and depth charges in the
Australian harbors Sunday night
and three of them probably were
destroyed.
Old Steamer Lost
This may have been the entire
force, which apparently stole
irto Sydney from a mothers'iip
lying off southeastern Australia.
The Japanese succeeded in sink
ing an old steamer used as a
ferry.
The allied air forces based on
Australian soil started large fires
and wrecked ' docks and air
dromes at enemy lodgements in
Timor, northeastern New Guinea
and the Solomon islands. General
MacArthur's headquarters re
ported. Just before dawn yesterday
Japanese establishments at Lae,
New Guinea, were bombed so
suddenly that only one fighter
got off to oppose the raiders. On
Saturday night the allies struck
at the Koepang airdrome on
Dutch Timor and the harbor at
Dili, capital of the Portuguese
half of that Japanese-held island.
On Friday night the allies
made a 2,000-mile roundtrip to
Tulagi in the Solomon islands,
setting at the Japanese seaplane
base there fires which could be
seen for 80 miles. Tanamoga and
Gaavutu, also in the Solomons,
were raided on the same night.
In China, Generalissimo Chi
ang Kai-Shek's fighters were en
gaged in a wide-flung diversion
ary action in Anhwei province,
in an effort to offset a Japanese
offensive which had overrun
Kinhwa, capital of neighboring
Chekiang province, and nearby
Lanchi.
Tide With Japs
The Chinese were able to re
capture certain points behind the
Jbillo M$k
W M . ASA
Japanese Chekiang line, but the
tide of battle was still generally
with the enemy. In Anhwei,
however, regulars and guerrillas
struck the foe at several places
extending from the neighborhood
of Nanking to more than 175
miles inland and up the Yangtze
river.
The Japanese reported an air
raid on an airfield near Kun
ming, southwestern China, in
which, they said, 10 planes were
destroyed, including five of the
P-40 type used by the America:.
Flying Tigers.
The Japanese announced they
had opened still another front
against Chungking's forces with
an offensive in K.vangtung pro
vince where the Japanese have
a long-established base in Can
ton, on the south China coast.
Domei, Japanese news agency,
said that "a steady, northward
drive" was in progress against
"tens of thousands" of Chinese
troops some 50 miles northeast
of Canton.
