On Coast Airway, Starts Fourth
Year Of Service To Armed Forces
"Wing-In," a canteen located
at the Medford Municipal air
port and run under the auspices
of Jackson County Rrecreation
committee, is now entering its
fourth year of service to the
armed forces. With the excep
tion of three paid workers it is
staffed entirely by volunteer
help and is one of the few or
ganizations of its sort In the
country. Although extremely
reasonable prices are maintained
it' has - bee n self-supporting
throughout its existence.
It has gained quite an excep
tional reputation up and down
the Pacific coast for its pleasant
atmosphere and good, inexpen
sive food, and flyers have been
heard to say that they plot their
course with the sole purpose of
dropping in for a "Wing-In"
hamburger. The canteen has
made many friends among the
many frienas among
army personnel siaiionea " ;
airport and receives appreciative
postcards and letters from many
service and be on time.
-Mrs. Rubv Young has just
finished having some painting
and papering done in the front

had been visiting in San Fran
cisco and stopped in Medford
while returning home.
Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Ferren of
Ashland called on Mr. Ferren's
sister, Mrs. Orvil Henderson,
here October 5.
Several of the "crack shot"
hunters left Saturday for the
Lakcview country for a two
weeks' try at the muletail in
that locality. They remarked
the reason for going so far to
hunt is that all they need do, is
find a comfortable (?) Juniper
stump, relax and wait for the
bucks to hunt them, the group
included William Perry, Orvil
Henderson, Sam Coy, Charles
Cearly, Ray Harnish and John
Robertson.
Mrs. Ray Harnish spent last
Sunday with her sister, Mrs.
Nevah Holman of Medford.
Friends in Eagle Point of
Mrs. Mayme Botts of Medford
are sincerely happy that she
finally received word that her
son, Sgt. Herbert Botts, is alive,
although a prisoner of the Ger
mans. Herbert had been reported
missing in action since D-day.
but as long as he is alive all join
Mrs. Botts in hoping that he will
be released and return home in
the near future.

Because it is operated by vol
unteers who are interested in
making it as useful an organiza
tion as possible it has achieved
an amazing record for being on
its toes. Since the beginning it
has lost only two days, when it
was closed for redecorating.
The day is divided into three
shifts from 9:30 a. m. to 2 p. m.,
from 2 p. m. to 7 p. m., and
evening from 7 to 10. The serv
ices of three women are needed
on each shift so that nine work
ers are required each day.
The evening hours are taken
over by young women who are
employed during the day and
too much praise cannot be given
them for their faithful services.
In-as-much as Wing In's success
is so largely dependent on the
women who contribute their
time to jt u ,s important that it
be fully staffed.
At the present time there are
about 35 volunteer workers,
whereas there should be ap
proximately 50. Any persons in
terested in offering their serv
ices (and requiring more infor
mation regarding the work)
should get in touch with Mrs.
Mary Simonds, telephone Med

Why Mom Agreed
I should be a
Nurse's Aide
My brother is in a hospital on foreign soil. When the newt

first day I wore my uniform I began contributing to his
recovery. My help releases graduate nurses to the Armed
Forces and one of these nurses may have a hand in saving
my brother's life ... or the life of a member of your family.
