WH ATI NO DRAFTS? NO EXPOSURE! A reader sends a page clipped from an aircraft company's house-organ, as the 'monthly message on health by the company's medical depart ment. The heading reads: THE SUMMER COLD ... a kill loy then the medical de partment i n -forms us t h a t colds during Or BredT the summer are no different medically from the winter variety, and offers "a few hints that we believe will help you keep a step hnead of a nasty summer cold." Then fol low seven hints which follow the hackneved pattern of such ad vice to the public by doctors or health authorities who are obvi ously vague nnd not quite cer- ta n of what they arc taiKins about For Instance: "1. Don't believe you are more immune to colds in summer than in winter . . ." I pricked up my ears and no cracks, please at that and reached for paper and type writer, eager to proclaim that here at last but. shucks my de light .was short-lived, for close on the heels of that scientific suggestion followed the old ho kum bunkem: '. . . Your resistance de pends on vour hfalth not on the season." The medical department may or should have some conception of the meaning of Immunity to some of the diseases that mas querade as "colds" (for the first and most communicable stage anyway), such as diphtheria, epi demlc meningitis, diphtheria, measles, whether the oncoming Illness is spread Indiscriminate ly as a summer, winter, slight, common, nasty, little or bad "cold."

Thursday-, Jun 29. 1944 J company a medical department cannot define what "resistance means, if it means anything dif ferent from immunity in the re markable remark I quote. - I must quote one more hint which (outside of this column) is unique, so far as my collection of such compositions of medical or health authorities shown: "6. Avoid exposure to those having colds. The cold causing virus is carried in minute droplets emitted when a person having a cold sneezes, coughs or speaks." I am delighted to find the air craft company s medical depart ment mentioning conversational spray as something to avoid. Sel dom will you find any mention of that in the advice given by health or medical authorities on how to prevent common respira tory infections. Among the ig norant class open-face coughing and sneezing is the way such in fections are spread Among the wiseacre class people who con sider themselves intelligent the chief mode of infection is viacon versational spray, in my opinion. QUESTIONS ANSWERS r.KK No Giving my three-yeat-old son egg nog. Will the egg. being raw. harm him In any way? He seems wenk and thin and I am trying to build him up. (Mrs. D. M.) Answer It Is all right If he likes It and If It contains no alcohol. Raw egg Is less completely digested than cooked egg. Blackened Sliver What causes acid In one's system? My silver Jewelry turns black and I have some pimples. Jeweler says It la from too much acid. (J. R.) Answer Nonsense. The sulphur compounds In a healthy person's skin or skin secretions form silver sulfide which Is black. It has nothing to do with acid. Weak ammonia water or aromatic spirits of ammonia removes It. Pyorrhea Is It better to have teeth out before pyorrhea begins? (H. H.) Answer As reasonable to have your foot amputated bofore bunion begins. Send stamped self-addressed envel oe for pamphlet. "All That Olnglvl- lis is Hot pyorrhea." It doesn t settle the question but It may give you a better Idea of tho nature of the trouble. (Copyright, 1944. John F. Dllle Co.) 6:18 p. m. Screen Test.

Joined en route by Torpedo planes of two other carriers, twelve of our dive bombers and eight of our Torpedo planes launched what Cmdr. Ralph Shifley, 33, air group command er, called a "perfect attack. Pictures taken by Shifley, who fled a Hellcat, definitely show three hits on a large Jap carrier, two hits on one battleship, and one hit on a heavy cruiser, while our fighters strafed, burned and damaged a destroyer. 18 Ships Hit (Adm. Chester W. Nimilz an nounced that a total of 18 Jap anese ships were sunk or dam aged in the battle, including one carrier sunk, one probably sunk by a submarine, four carriers' damaged, one battleship dam aged, three cruisers damaged, one destroyer sunk and two damaged, two tankers sunk and three damaged.) n..Pir. .1 -I .!.! actTon'"BMonda;r a' " nowe u United States task force wiped out more than 400 enemy car rier-based planes. They amounted to five or six airgroups known to be the cream of the enemy air forces, Arriving al the target at least 15 minutes ahead of any other group, our Avengers and Hell divers were unhampered by air opposition, although Shifley and Wongman Lt. (jg) Gerald Rian o, lanmea wun six or seven Zeros. Rian shot down one and Shifley set one afire and dam aged another. No Planes on Deck Shifley reported the Japanese carriers had no planes on their fliRht deck, indicating our Hell cats must have made a clean sweep Monday when the enemy launched what proved to be a suicidal attack. Less than 20 minutes after the Japanese fleet was sighted by search planes, Shifley led an air group off tho deck. The Bomber and Torpedo plane pilots knew they had to fly several hundred miles and that the chances of re turning were slim, but this was the chance the navy had been awaiting for many months. All me returning planes made night landings and many pilots iivwiuvu ui uiHnes w i rn ran out of gas explained they were picked up by destroyers." "The Japanese spread out in three groups," Shifley said. "Our Bombers and Torpedo planes picked out the southern group which included a big carrier, battleships and cruisers. "I saw Dive Bombers peeling off and Torpedo planes started their runs. It was a beautiful at tack. "The ack-ack was thicker than hell, the phosphorous shells burst into purple, red. white and black. "The attack was perfect Just like what we've been doing in practice. Those boys went In, ack-ack or no ack-ack. I was proud of them.

"I was taking pictures of dog fighting, but I did see Rian shoot one down into the water. I smoked one and knocked a big piece out of another." Lt. (jg) Logan Phillips, 24, re turned with only 10 gallons of gas in his tank. He gave a1 graphic description of his torpedo attack on a Japanese battleship, i "I missed the battlewagon,! but I think the cruiser ran right! into the fish," he said. j "When I saw that fleet, I ac-i tually started to laugh at the thought that I or anyone else would be crazy enough to at tack it. The ack-ack was terrific. I saw our Dive Bombers knock the bow off a carrier and I don't see how it could nave stayed afloat. "While I still was debating about going in, I found myself making a run on the biggest battleship I've ever seen. It was at least 50 times bigger than anything we've got well, that's the way it looked to me. I came back all alone, flying on instru ments through pitch black. 'I could hear myself yelling prayers and God was with me, because I couldn't have taken one waveoff when I came in. LT. FISHER FELLS OF PREPARATIONS MADE FOR D-DAY In a pre-invasion day letter written to his mother. Mrs. Clara Fisher of 512 South Holly street Lt. fjgi W. H (Hank) Fish er tells briefly of preparations then being made for the assault on the coast of France. "You people can depend on these men over here doing their loo ana aome u wen, nc wmn.. The7 don't think of calling any I on I lies in in- luiuviic gagement. It is certainly reas suring to watch some of these men on the ship do their jobs. "There Is lust one thing these men want and that is to get home as soon as they can. But they know they can't go back until this job is finished, so thev are all eager to get it over with." Lt. Fisher, who was employed by the Califorria Oregon Power company prior to enlisting in the navy, is stationed aboard an LST (Landing Ship Tanks) He is a graduate of local schools and Oregon State college.
