PDIalSMER Ye Smudge Pot Br Arthur Perry The nation Is now In the throes of its first post-war craze-, blowing soap bubbles. Young and old are doing it. Its a long ways as the crow flies, from soap bub bles to atomic bombs. e e e News reports reveal duck hunters are killing deer, and deer hunters are killing ducks. Hunt ing resembles wrestling. If it looks like fighting its wrestling, and if it looks like wrestling its fighting. 0 0.0 "Mrs. Warren Beckwlth whose husband is on duty in the Pacific, invited about 20 friends in Tues day evening to share the good news" (San Delgo Union) What's good about it? 0 0 0 Leaves are now as thick in the city park as rocking chair gen erals, three days after the Nor mandy invasion. Most of the gen erals are now football coaches or quarterbacks. e e A rural resident reports his helpmate carelessly left a rain' bow-hued O-Cedar mop leaning against the fence, and ran into the kitchen to see what was burn ing. Before she could get back, the O-Cednr mop was shot twice for a Chinese pheasant. a e e The esteemed Klamath Falls Herald and News having its an nual civic and conniption fit over the Black Tornado-Pelican game Friday night, in an editorial de signed to stiffen its own, and the spinal column of its team, ob serves: It happens, however, that there have been no games which afford a scoring com parison between Medford and Klamath Falls." It happens, however, there has been one game that affords a scoring comparison of sorts. Med ford defeated Marshfield 40 to 0; Grants Pass beat Marshfield 20 to 0, and, only last Friday the Cavemen whipped Klamath Falls 13 to 12. From here out, let the figures speak for themselves. They leave the Pelicans with a slight edge over Marshfield. Now as Exhibit A. consider the opening paragraph of the Coos Bay Times account of the Marsh-ficld-Myrtle Point game last Sat urday: "Marshfield high school dis played a first class girls' pep club at Myrtle Point Saturday. The MIIS yell kings and root ers performed nobly. The hap less Pirate football team, dub bed the "scoreless wonders" of Coos county, Just went for the ride." Substitute Klamath Falls for Marshfield In the above item, and you have a frank and candid description of the powerful (at home) Pelicans. a e e "Due to the newsprint short age, a number of births will be postponed until next wee k," (Ogden, Utah, Standard Exami ner) Power of the press. o o LITTLE GIRL ITEMS The other morning Daddy went out In our back pasture to shoot pheasants. About four oth er men were already back there. They did not know that Daddy owned the land, so they said: "Won't you Join us7" But Daddy only said: "No, thank you. I'd rather you moved on.' In Sunday school my teacher told me In one class there were two sets of twins, both named Jean and Joan. Mr. Harry Thornlley Is here again. In art, we have been lettering quotations.

Like everything else in the sporting or entertainment line, hard to get seats but finally secured them. Columbia won 27 to 13, but it was an interesting and unusual game, o o . o o In our college days Yale was the "bull dog," notorious for making last-ditch stands and coming from behind in the last few minutes to win. And Yale, sad to relate usually won! But there was no "bull dog" in this aggregation from New London. They were a strong husky group of young men; not only put over two touchdowns and a goal but played the "city slickers" right off their feet In every department of the game in the first half. With this lead of 13 points, the betting 30 years ago would have been around 10 to one in favor of the "blue" at the half-way mark, and perhaps it was at this engagement for all we know. But in the second half the Ells collapsed like a punctured balloon, not only couldn't make a stand anywhere but couldn't play foot ball, and If our recollection is correct only made three first downs while the "Ko-Loom-bla" lads ran up 27 points, and it could easily have been 72 points as far as the relative merits of the two teams in that second period were concerned. A more complete and mystifying reversal, we have never seen, in this greatest of all outdoor sports. Will be interested to see what the sports experts say about it, haven't been able to get a Sunday paper as yet, all sold out early at this hotel. But that is the way with everything in this man's town these days, more money than goods from 10 days to two weeks ran at "Brooks" to get one. Believe SHIRT TO BE HAD,, and no telling when there will be any! Orders for custom-made shirts, the clerk said, were six months behind. He blamed It all on the OPA with a low ceiling price which took all profit out of white shirts so the manufacturers simply refused to make them. (We doubt the truth of this but have no evidence to refute It.) After a long search we finally got one and It was the last one the store had in our sizel So it goesl 0 0 0 0 0 Incldently it is not difficult to see what a terrific increase In prices would result if there were no ceilings, no price controls under such conditions. (Far better to have no white shirts at all than uncontrolled Inflation!) Coming back from the game ran into a crowd at 6th avenue and 44th street listening to a loud voiced man on a truck asking all and sundry to vote for "Jonah." While the speaker paused a few moments for breath a phonograph at his side started to grind out a catchy marching song the chorus being something along the line of "vote for Jonah, Jonah the peoples' man!" It took us a few moments to realize this was not a ballyhoo to build up trade for a new patent combination potato peeler and corkscrew, but was apparently a serious, authorized effort to get votes for Judge Jonoh Goldstein, Republican and so called "Fusion" candidate for mayor. With such a name with such a connotation we should have supposed there would be no "build-up" along the "Jonah" line Guess there must be something In the local political picture which biuTh from the PacUic coast can not easily 8rasp at 1 lrst Whoever wins the mayoralty election, Goldstein, O'Dwyer or Morris, we venture to say it will be a lone; time hpfnr.. r.rootnr Manhattan has an executive as honest, capable and picturesque as the present Incumbent, the diminutive but energetic "Little Flower" Florella La Guardia. The morning sunshine did not it did not rain. A strong wind came up from the southwest how ever and caused a strange phenomenon at the football game. Baker field Is an old-fashioned football field, not a modern "bowl." The seats are along the line of bleachers with open air ventilation unner me spectators- feet. Well, ered up peanut-shells and skins neaas of the spectators like showers of ashes from a revived Vesuvius. At the end of the game a large portion of the males were engaged in brushing off their gals' hots and hair-do's, it was no easy Job and the prettier the gal the longer the operation seemed to take! Nearlng the field, we saw something that one would orobnbly see in no other city in the world, for the simple reason that for nerve and daring the "Dead End Kids" of New York lead the world. A group of them (no doubt, first certain no cops were near) scaled the high-wire and barbwlre fence at the east end of the field, and were over it and scrambling up the bank like so many rabbits, before anyone In the crowd had time to sound an alarm. This fence would have to be seen to have the feat believed, it was a sort of woven wire at least 10 feet high with three strands of barbed wire on the top and bent In at about a 43 degree angle. we oia not see now tne "Klcis" got up, but We did see them step ping on the top strand of barbed wire and then iumo. the llimn Jnrrcd each one of them, and all fell over when they landed, but they were up and away, In an Incredibly short time. No doubt Ihcy saw the game, from some vantage point. (The roofs of armrt. ment houses surrounding the field no doubt certain Janitors made any. inciaemiy ine cnarge lor the field was one dollar!

However, if he proceeds with the curious hobby and Is stuck for a twenty nine town I can coll his attention to Twenty-nine Palms, Calif. Hats From the Gentleman's Jour nal in 1830: "Ladies should re move their hats at the theatre for the plumed varieties obscure the view of those behind them." From the London Sketchbook of 1899: "If ladies would remove their hats theatres would become more agreeable places." From the New York Journal 1907: "We are heartily in accord with that theatre manager whose no tice reads 'Ladies with large hots will please sit on the floor.' " From the soundwave illustrated. September 1945: "Women's large hats art still a nuisance at i the cinema, opera and ballet.' (Note Why is it women so strongly battle against the idea of removing their hats in thea tres? In so doing is their hair do affected? Or is it Just be cause it is too much trouble?) Passing By Lieut. Commander Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., great fighting man and brilliant actor. In addi tion to his ability as an actor Doug, Jr., is a clever writer and has some talent as an artist and sculptor. . . . "Toots" Shor, whim sical restaurateur, has the gift of brevity in expressing himself. When, as a wartime measure, the New York bars were ordered closed before midnigh't Mr. Shor was asked by reporters to ex press his view of the matter. He said: "What basis is there for complaint? A man who can't get drunk between 6:30 p. m. and midnight Just ain't tryin'." Asking Queries from clients. Q. How Is your dog doing on his vacation in the country? A. Thanks for asking. From the last report I quote: "I saw your dog, Timmy, He is fat and sassy and barking his head off at the squirrels as usual." Pretty soft for him. Next time he goes to the country I'm going with him. Q. What is your favorite foreign city? A. Before the war I liked Paris best with Florence, Italy, second. Q. What did you say were the best college songs? A. In order named: Lord Jeffrey Amherst," Wesleyan's Drink a highball at nightfall," Yale's "Whiffenpoof Song," Rut ger's "On the Banks of the Old Raritan," Dartmouth's "Old Ele- azar Wheelock.' Champion Hens What breed of hen Is the best egg producer?. Is it the Rhode Island Red? Twelve Rhode Island Red hens recently produced 2,976 eggs In eighteen days in England and in so doing won the 1945 British egg laying championship. Has anybody in the U. S. A. twelve hens who might be able to beat this record? Maybe we could arrange an egg laying worlds series. Briefly The cheapest automobile so far announced for future sale In Eng land is the Morris Eight which Is priced at the equivalent of $940 plus $264 purchase tax . . . It is claimed by some experts on longevity that if you drink plen ty of sour milk you will live to a ripe, old age. Very Interesting. You can try it if you want to. I would rather die young than go on a sour milk diet. News Behind The News By Paul MaJlon Washington, Oct 18 G e n. MacArthur's address of final victory sounded to the uninitiat ed public as if he was merely t a 1 k i n g abstract strategy a necessary new strategy of complete inte gration of army, navy and air force. He said this was the lesson eaui Malum he learned from the war as well as Yamashlta, who at tributed his part of Jap defeat to lack of land, sea and air co ordinHtion. This address was actually a verbal bomb, a directed missile, which hit Washington In what might be called n strategic if Invisible spot. The Joint chiefs of staff held on unreported se cret meeting a week earlier (October 9) and failed to dj any thing about rrcating Just such a comb'notion of our forces into a single depar'ment. Since last April they have been doing the some thing about It nothing. They have not let It rouch the public eye or ear. but suppressed the report recom mending It so thoroughly that not even the president, to whom it wrj destined had then receiv ed It. HJIACARTHUR'S action re minded me of Billy Mit chell, the pioneer fighting air man who told the public years In advance whnt'thls war would he like, and got court-martialed for it ThP Mitchell program for air accentuation was success fully Slaved by the old goatees because thev caught him using fireworks and hot charges. MacArthur's method practi cally dripped honey He did not mentinn onv report or even the lolnt chiefs of staff, but Just set out an apparently sincere state ment of facts, for which a pri vate could rot even be court martialed. THE common story going 1 armnd the copliol Is that the navy is responsible for the dan gerous daley. (The delay is dan cerou because Is will require many months to gt the new in-tocrat-d syrtem In operation, pnd tliert-forv efficient notional defense Is boing postponed) But 1 cannit accept the story of navy responsibility unless you con sider Adm. King the navy. He is on the Joint chiefs of staff, and Is knewn to be the leader of the opposition lint you may recall my recent column exposing the report in dicated Adms. Nimitr and Hal sey favored the combination as well as Mac-Arthur, who has now spoken out, and Elsen hower, slated shortly to be chief-uf-staff in Gen. Marshall's place. Indeed a navy admiral signed the report. Only a retired admiral dissented. e e o I TNQUESTIONABLY, a num. ber of navy men do believe their appropriations from con gress will be cut when they lose their independent status and must work on congress through a single department head. I guess this is apt to prove true. But for any branch of the service to put appropriations above national defense, a plan for national defense considered necessary by a clear majority of the fighting leaders, wouia make them subject to court-mar tial If I was running their ser vice. Some sound technical objec tions have been mentioned anent the single department Dlan as to whether this small bureau of the army should best be combined with that bureau, where to leave this subdivision of one service or that one. Indeed. I personally believe the n!an is faulty n at least one detail which places entirely too much work uoon the proposed first assistant secretary of the combined armed services. But to defeat the integration program for such reasons is to stumble over blades of grass and butt your head into trees. The details can be worked out. Editorial Comment Investments in Compassion Thirty thousand dollars and a promise of more next year was given by Southern and Central Oregon Shriners to the Shrine hospital In Portland this week. "We of the Hillah temple of the Shrine, and all of our clubs from Medford, Grants Pass, Klamath Falls, Roseburg and Co quille, consider it a privilege and a pleasure to contribute funds to such a worthy cause," says Sam Stlnebaugh, potentate of Hliian temple, in Guest Editorial on this page. Similar conviction nas prompted support of the work of the Shriners Hospital for Crip pled Children by sources rang ing from the Shriners them selves, who spend approximately $11 million a year at tneir 10 hospitals in the United States and Hawaii, to an ex-patlent of the hospital, who, as a soldier in the South Pacific, sent a few dollar bills from his small check to the local hospital fund "to help some other crippled child get well." About 200 patients a year are discharged from the local hospi tal given back the use of arms and legs they thought could nev er be used again. The Southern and Central Ore gon Shriners could not have in vested more compassionately the $30,000 they contributed toward continuance of this work. Ore gone Journal.

Dr. Needham, until first of the year in the employ of the Na tional Fish and Wild Life Serv ice, told of experience of the gov ernment in its endeavor to salv age the migratory fish runs in rivers where high dams have been constructed in recent years. He pointed out many disappoint ing failures in spite of the ex penditure of millions of dollars by government agencies in charge of dam construction. The matter of tributary stream storage run-off water being re sorted to as an alternate to using the main streams of rivers for storage was also explained. Dr. Needham stated that construction of one dam projected for lower Rogue river, apparently for de velopment of power, would def initely eliminate any future anadromous fish from Rogue river for all time. During his stay in southern Oregon Dr. Needham, assisted by Cole Rivers, Grants Pass, also with the State Game Commis sion, is making a survey of fish life in Rogue river and compil ing data for use by the United States Engineers and the Biologi cal Service. Several reels of moving pic tures were shown and refresh ments served at conclusion of the meeting. E Ashland, Oct. 18 Ashland has been placed on the list of cities eligible for a federal post office building, according to a telegram received by V. D. Bert Miller from Robert Hannegan, postmaster general. Miller, Jackson county Demo cratic chairman, pointed out that the message did not mean thatt he building is assured. Committee on public buildings and grounds of the house of rep resentatives Is now holding hear ings on legislature to authorize a new building program and if the legislature is enacted, the Ashland project will be consid ered in the allotment of author ized bids, Hannegan's message stated. Cpl. Alden Wright Writes of Fishing At Iceland Station Cpl. Alden Wright, stationed in Iceland with an air corps squa dron, wrote to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mark Wright, South Pa cific highway, recently of fishing near his Iceland station. Cpl. Wright wrote: "Tell the Izaak Waltons the fishing Is good up here. I went fishing the other day and caught three flounders and eight mack erel." A member of the Blue Nose club, Wright, who expects to re turn to Belgium soon, told of fly ing over the Arctic circle but re turning shortly after the flight started because the plane "iced up." 300 Casualties In Okayama Explosion Tokyo, Oct. 17 (U.R) A gun powder explosion at the Okay ama Ordnance Supply Depot yes terday caused 300 casualties, the Dome! news-agency reported to day.

Fashion Decrees By Claira Cox United Press Correspondent Chicago, Oct. 18 (U.R) The glamour girls will have to start "oomphasizing" their hips in stead of their sweaters if they want to fit into the newest mold of fashion's dictators, one of the dictators said today. "That's the way things are shaping up for American wom en," said Ruth Hatfield, fashion director of the Chicago Fashion Industries, a trade organization of men's and women's clothing manufacturers. Instead of having "that stark, clean, unlittered or terse look," of wartime days, women are going to have "that look of released fullness, that rounded look," both of which definitely eliminate the sweater girl.

BOYS WITH RIFLES CAUSE COMPLAINTS The sheriffs office has receiv ed complaint that small boys are ranging the countryside with 12 calibre rifles, and shooting in discriminately. A group was rounded up on Bear Creek early this week, firing straight ahead as they advanced, shooting at nothing in particular. Deputy sheriffs explain 22 rifles are longer range than shot guns.
