going with a girl whom I like
very much, but every time we
spend an evening at home she
puts her head on my shouldor
and falls Into a deep sleep.

1894 STORM AND CALM
"People on the street stopped;
The CHiiONICLE force ran out
to get what was surely a prom
ising Item; Geo. Ruch rushed
from his store; some men in
Nielsen's store hurried to the
sidewalk; the coroner started on
the run, but no corpso was to
be seen. Finally, at a shout from
the Pacific Express, the CHRON
ICLE man rushed in to write up
another $14,000 robbery. The
only sight that greeted his eyes
was Agent Kurtz gazing blankly
around the room with the wick
of his alcohol lamp colled around
his neck and the remains of the
lamp on the floor. It had ex
ploded when he was heating seal
ing wax, and he was fortunate
not to have been struck by the
flying pieces." (50 Yrs. Ago

YMCA Fills Need Here
When German prisoners of war at Camp White
recently contributed from earnings to a fund for the
International Red Cross a certain portion of their
funds were also set aside for the Y.M.C.A. This indi
cates the widespread recognition of the "Y" program,
even by the enemy. It shows the respect which fight
inrr m fin hnlri fnr this organization in this war esteem
that seems to be universally ieit on every lroni aim
in every land.
IT should be remembered that the Y.M.C.A. has put
special emphasis on its service to war prisoners for
a long time. It started the first relief program of this
nature during the Civil War. In today's conflict it
has brightened the long hours of prison life with
books, games, musical instruments, recreational and
athletic equipment and religious literature.
e e a e e
BETTER still, the Y.M.C.A. is known for its constant
and zealous effort in behalf of youth, regardless
of race, creed, nationality or social status. Its world
itti tnnrs. started in 1924. and father-and-son
nfnvpmpnf. datinrr from 1914: its encouragement of
night schools and adult education together with in
nnnnlnr 'teen aire clubs all have combined
to make this century-old
and social asset to communities tnrougnouc tne lanu.
'HAT is exactly what Medford's year-old "Y" is
a real asset to this community. More than three hun
dred youngsters boys and girls alike are spending
their leisure time pleasantly and profitably at the
Y.M.C.A. It is going to become an even greater asset
when Camp White is reactivated and the juvenile
problem becomes more serious.
THEN the Y.M.C.A. clubrooms in tne masonic Duna
ing will become a real safety zone for boys and
rrirls and Y.M.C.A.'s clean, wholesome activities a
safety valve for youthful pep and exuberance.
Here is one time-tried, practical approach to the
problem of juvenile' delinquency that deserves the
support of all. Those who wish to convert a little
extra cash into character will do well to investigate
an investment in Medford's Y.M.C.A. H.G.
News Behind
The News
By Paul Mallon
Wn.Vilnctnn. June 14. Sena
tors roundly damned OPA for
weeks then surprisingly
termed us pow
ers a n o t h e r
year.
The decision
was not lllogl-
c a 1. True
enough, OPA
has committed
many blunders
and Is wholly
u nsatlsfactory
The gross
flaws however,
have been of
Haul Matton
an admlntstra
tlve nature and no fault of legis
lation. .
When senators tried to write
over-all rules to cure these de
fects, they found It difficult, if
not Impossible. So they came
up, hot or cold, against the final
Question of allowing OPA to
continue. A small majority was
readily found by the administra
tion to believe that price restric
tion management must not be
stbpped while there is a shortage
of goods else there will be in
flation. e e e
DOT there was more behind
the senate vote than logic. I
understand a deal was made for
a thorough house cleaning which
will amount to an OPA reorgani
sation. Indeed, it Is not impos
sible that Director Bowles him
self may go, although congres
sional complaints are generally
directed against the sub-strata
of what the congressmen call
"theorists," who really do the
technical OPA work.
This crowd clings to its Ideas
of regimentation and restrictions
on sound business practices
while black markets flourish.
The ousting of at least some ol
these Is already planned. In fact,
a few hours before the vote.
New York's regional administra
tor, Woolley, promised a shake
up in his much criticized office
"very soon.'
e e e
DATHER surprisingly, the sen
ators critical of OPA are pri
vately expressing admiration for
J. A. Krug, the supposedly new
deal chairman of the war pro
duction board. Bus I ne s a m e n
have reported confidence in him,
and say he has sounder Ideas
than any other official In the
government management despite
his heritage.
This may be duo to Mr. Krug's
advocacy of a withdrawal of
controls In order to speed up
reconversion. It would not be
surprising If Mr. Krug wound up
on top oi the heap,
Krug apparently bellcvos OPA
mismanagement would cause
unemployment In the rcconver
slon era, if continued without
change. Now both Bowles and
his head of pricing, Brownlee.
are business men (but not of
like views with Krug) and whe
ther their reorganization will be
able to re-establish confidence of
Ms
organization a civic, moral
business In OPA management Is
still an oDen Question in . the
majority senatorial mind.
Certainly every discernible
nrosDcct suggests relaxing, of
OPA restrictions and establish
ment of a more co-operative
attitude, coupled with more ef
fective action against black mar
kets. e e e
HTIIE continuance bill now must
pass the house where no
haste Is visible, although OPA's
powers expire June 30. Hearings
were begun there only after the
senate passed the bill.
The house is generally depend
ed upon to eliminate the dis
turbing farm bloc amendment
which the senate tacked on at
the last minute, establishing a
cost-plus formula for farmers
and meat packers. The senate
was half asleep when the amend
ment was passed, according to
the administration leaders, who
feel sure they can get it out of
the bill.
Yet It must, therefore, be re
ported that congress is reluctant
ly moving to renew OPA's lease
on life because it can think of
nothing better to do.
Ashland Engineer
Designs Important
Equipment for War
Pittsflcld, Mass New types
of electric capacitors, vital com
ponents of all radar and other
electronic war equipment, are
being designed by Benjamin H.
Goldy, a 30-yea.-old engineer in
the Capacitor Engineering Divi
sion of the General Electric
Company's Plttsfield, Mass.,
plant Goldy, a native of Ash
land Oregon, is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. George W. Goldy of
331 Scenic Drive.
Mr. Goldy's work, which has
entailed the location of a suit
able substitute material for mica
in the capacitors and develop
ment of leakproof plates, Is no
small Job. At the start ot the
war came a serious shortage of
mica used in the manufacture of
some types of capacitors. Most
of this mica came from India,
and Imports to this country vir
tually ceased because of Japan
ese warfare In this area. Several
of the developments carried on
by Goldy havo resulted in new
capacitors of Improved types re
quiring no mica, thus aiding in
freeing the United States from
reliance upon foreign supply
sources for strategic materials.
New types of capacitors are
constantly in demand for newly
developed and often highly se
cret war equipment.
Mr Goldy, an employee of the
General Electric Company for
the past four years, was grad
uated from Oregon State College
In 1941.
