MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 17, 1942.
T
Charles H. Whitcomb of Eagle
Point, middle-aged cantonment
worker, entered a plea of guilty
to-driving an auto while intoxi
cated, in justice court yesterday,
and posted three $50 war bonds
as security for payment of the
$104.50 fine and costs imposed.
Pending payment of the fine, a
Jail sentence of 30 days was sus
pended along with his driving
and liquor licenses for a year.
Whitcomb explained to the
court he had been purchasing a
$50 war bond each week out of
his $80 salary. He regretted
payment of the fine would pre
vent him from purchasing two
more defense bonds but thought
he could make it up later.
A complaint charging Glenn
I. Andrews with reckless driv
ing was filed yesterday. And
rews was driver of one of the
cars involved in an auto acci
dent near Central Point last
week In which four people re
ceived injuries. Andrews was
released yesterday from the hos
pital on bonds and will go to
Coos Bay to recuperate. He is
a bricklayer at the cantonment.
The case of James L, Stubbs,
charged with reckless driving
was postponed until next Mon
day. Stubbs' brakes failed to
function at a highway intersec
tion and he hit another car.

Co-starred again are Barbara
Stanwyck and Joel McCrea in
the stirring story and love
drama behind "The Great Man's
Lady," coming to the Craterian
theatre Sunday for a three-day
engagement. The two stars

"Saboteur", Drama
At Craterian Has
Bond Buying Urge
Proof of the great need for
every man, woman and child to
buy all they can in war stamps
and bonds is the story behind
the sensational film, "Saboteur,"
which opens a four-day run to
day at the Craterian theatre, ac
cording to Fred Lennard, new
assistant manager of the popular
Central avenue theatre, who is
now in charge of the Medford
theatres' war stamp and bond

several years experience in this
work as he was formerly associ

Washington, June 17 W)
The Joint congressional commit
tee considering the bill to create
a Columbia power authority to
market energy from Bonneville
and Grand Coulee dams was
urged to proceed slowly and
with caution by an Oregon
newspaper editor yesterday.
'There Is a sincere and far
reaching difference of opinion
on these bills in the northwest",
William M. Tugman of the
Eugene Register-Guard fold the
committee considering the
Smith-Bone bills. "We want this
committee to consider all the
complex factors involved."
The Bonneville power admin
istration meddles in local poli
tics, Tugman said, and should
the Columbia authority be cre
ated there might be a tendency
toward control of municipally
operated plants.
Public ownership of utilities,
Tugman declared, should "grow
from the ground up and not be
handed to yoif top down."

ish bombers smashed again at
Nazi war plants in the Ruhr and
Rhineland regions of Germany
last night although bad weather
which had forced a week-long
lull still had not fully cleared.
Eight British bombers failed
to return from the night's offen
sives, which included mine-sowing
in enemy waters, the air
ministry said.
Its communique added that a
German fighter was shot down
attempting to intercept the RAF
bombers and that a British
fighter also was lost on daylight
offensive patrol over nortnern
France yesterday.
The size of the raiding forma
tion was apparently average,
observers said, appreciably be

YOUR STANDARD SERVICE MAN
We Pay You For Old Rubberl
Uncle Sam needs your old rubber and
we Standard Service Men will pay you
a penny a pound for it! Then the Gov
ernment buys it from us for re-processing.
If you want to donate your old
rubber and many will we will pass
along the proceeds from that rubber to
the USO or some other worthy cause.
Bring it in any amount of old rubber
you have: garden hose, raincoats, rub
ber boots, old tires, bathing caps, leaky
hot water bottles, anything that's made
of rubber. Of course the Government
doesn't want you to give up anything
you're using and would have to replace
with new rubber, but many folks have
lots of discarded rubber' goods lying
around. Here's your chance to get nd
of yours and do your country a real
favor at the same time. The rubber col
lection drive ends at midnight June 30,
so bring yours in now!
