It Was a VERY Small Contribution FIFTEEN years ago when airfields consisted largely of gopher holes and imagina tionstandard bought a plane and sent it on a tour of the West. In it, thousands of per sons took their first trip aloft. That plane wore itself out air conditioning Americans. Mad it ever landed wrong, the result would have been em barrassing but definitely! For many and many a passenger frankly risked a flight because he had confidence in this Com pany rather than in airplanes. Even then, of course, Standard believed air travel safe if properly supervised. This activity naturally made patrons for the commercial air lines. These, in turn, have been responsible for much of the air plane development which now gives us assurance of air supe riority in war. The peacetime growth of air travel, for in stance, has been one motive for strides Standard itself has made in airplane fuel. One plane may seem a very small thing. Well, the pudding in "A Christmas Carol" was a very small pudding yet Tiny Tim and his friends have been able to share it with all the world. So we're proud of that old plane long since in the junk heap but still a symbol of w hy America is strong.

Jackson county's part In the national United Service Organi zation drive to raise funds for the recreation of men in the armed forces is coming along rapidly, according to C. E. "Pop" Gates, who is heading the county campaign. He said to day "we have no doubt as to its results." Ashland has com pleted their quota and it is anti cipated that the remainder of the $7,000 goal for the county will be reached by July 1. Many business concerns in Jackson county have taken over solicitation of their employes thus relieving the solicitors for other territories. Mr. Gates said that the rural areas are well organized with the granges participating In the volunteer work. Mr. Gates asked today that women who could volunteer a little of their time make appli cation at the chamber of com merce to assist in the drive. He said that although many women are working in other phases of defense activities even a day's help would prove valuable to the success of the drive. Mem bers of the Medford Sojourner club are giving the drive excel lent support, he said, many of their members solicitin-g throughout the city. OREGON JAP NOW HEE HEE" OF TOKYO RADIO Wide World Feature Eugene, Ore There's an alumnus of the University of Oregon here of whom officials aren't the least bit proud. They call him "Yoshii - the Yokel of Yokohoma." Also there are other names, unprintable for any occasion. The university rolls show that Charles Hisao Yoshii graduated in 1934. He went to Japan short ly thereafter and enrolled In the Tokyo Imperial university as a graduate student. After months of diligent study, he was suffi ciently steeped In Japanese na tionalism to be declared a "suc cess as a radio announcer.

"It Is Imperative that a man speaking for the Japanese nation to the English speaking world have the perfect undertsandinx and command of the English lan guage and country of which Mr. Yoshil so possesses," wrote the newspaper. The U. of Oregon alumni of fice hasn't forgotten that another aiumnus, xoseuke Matsuoka, ex foreign minister of Japan, also has caused the university con. siderable embariassment, In 1937, the Portland unit of the U. of O.
