took over the dockyards and
fortifications they lost to the
Japanese more than three years
ago.
An official communique said
the re-occupation was proceeding
according to plan without opposi
tion. The surrendering Japanese
were disarmed and permitted to
withdraw across the causeway
from Singapore island to the
Malayan mainland.
Looting Halted
British troops guarding the
causeway found a number of
Japanese attempting to carry off
loot from the city. They were
searched on the spot and stripped
of all their booty.
One Japanese officer protested
the forced removal of his com
mand from Singapore to the
northern side of the causeway,
because it meant living in native
huts instead of the city's swank
mansions. He was "overruled" in
short order.
Among the 85,000 surrender
ing Japanese were 85 generals
and an undetermined number of
admirals.
British military authorities re
leased a large number of British,
American and allied prisoners of
war held in Singapore.

BEAR SEVERELY
BITES HAND OF
WOMAN AT LAKE
Details of the story of how a
Santa Barbara, Calif., woman
was severely bitten by a bear
while picnicking in Crater Lake
park last Saturday were reveal
ed today. The bears have been
damaging oars and stealing food
since the park opened but this is
the first report of injury to a
park visitor.
The victim, Mrs. Glen Sanders,
was bitten on the left hand and
knocked to the ground when she
attempted to frighten the animal
away from the lunch spread on
a table in the park rim camp
ground. She was given first aid
by another camp visitor and
Thomas J. Parker, assistant park
superintendent. Mrs. Sand ers,
with her husband, private in the
air corps, and their two small
children were en route to Gelger
Field, Spokane, Wash., where the
serviceman is stationed. They
were advised by Parker to con
sult a physician and were to have
stopped in Bend.
The problem of protecting
both the bears and camp visitors
is one of considerable concern
to park service staff members,
it is stated, and visitors are ad
vised not to feed the animals.
Mrs. Sanders had not been feed
ing the animal which attacked
her, but found the bear raiding
the picnic table when she return
ed from the family car. Pvt.
Sanders had gone for water at
the time of the incident.
