'Military Roll" New Hairdo . . : 1 LIGHTNING CAUSES 9M - (Continued from rag One) were rushed to the fire lines in Washington. i Manpower was at a premium because of curtailed CCC camp operations and the reduced un employed rolls during the de fense industrial boom. Army blitz methods were used in the Chelan-Wenatcbee region. Bight parachutists from Mis soulaMonL, dropped to the fire fighting scene. . FIRE SITUATION - The fire- situation . in this area was much improved Sat urday. , About 150 men were still pa trolling the Modoc fire, which burned over huge areas of brush and grass land. This fire was believed burned out. . The Bonanza fire 'gave oft a lot of smoke Friday afternoon, leading to reports it had broken out again. It was learned, how ever, that the smoke came from well within the fire area, where snags, brush and other materi als were still burning. Darwin Jones of Portland, past state president of the Ore gon Association of Beauty Shop Owners, is shown putting fin ishing touches to the "Military Roll," the new hair style just coming into -vogue. Leola Nail, beautician of the Houston Beauty shop, is the model. This new hair style, which Jones predicted .would be .high style, for fall, is very practical as it enables the individual her self .to comb out innumerable curl combinations. "A person must first have nat urally curly hair or a permanent wave, then the correct base . . . shaping, thinning and blending . . . and the hair is ready to frame the face to an individual's particular style. It is not neces sary to reduce the length of any one's long bob," Jones said. Jones was brought to Klamath to introduce the "Military Roll," by the Klamath branch of the Oregon Association of Beauty Shop Owners, v. -v FUEL MULEBS SEEK Trade News Interesting Notes of Herald and News Advertisers, Their Products and Activities T CAMPAIGN EUROPE TO BEAT NAZIS WINANT TO SPEAK .

Klamath Amateur Radio Operators Go ro 'Hamfest' The annual army amateur ra dio system "hamfest," held this year at Abrams lake near Mt.

The annual conference, at tended by radio amateurs of the "army net", from all over the 9th corps area, was scheduled for July 18, 19 and 20, but most of the local operators planned to leave Saturday.

L. Lorn. bard, of Lombard Motors, Klam ath Dodge-Plymouth dealer. Lombard recently returned from an- excursion into the tim ber lands to the southeast where he spent the greater part of a day on the Bill Raymond logging operations, 60 miles southeast of the city. saw big -3-ton Dodge lob- rated trucks "hauling in excess of .40 tons of logs over "torture test" roads on the Raymond hold ings,". Lombard stated. 'Trucks must be- good to stand three round trips, a total of 264 miles a day in and out for a, period of jsix to seven months at the height I of the logging season. Dodge owners are satisfied and I at tribute a large part of Dodge success to the fact that Dodge trucks are tough . . they last longer." Now is the time to buy trucks in the opinion of Lombard who believes that present low prices cannot last. "Our experience in the last World war leads us to believe that truck prices will advance in line with ' the in creases already, registered in labor and materials costs. We believe that prospective truck buyers should buy quality mer chandise that will last for years and years and should buy now,' Lombard concluded. LONDON, July 19 (U.R Col. V. Britton, Britain's mysterious radio "Voice of Doom," railed on the peoples of German-occupied countries Friday to be gin mobilizing a "V for victory"' army within 48 hours to strike at the Germans in any possible way. v . His broadcast climaxed a week of promotion by the Brit ish Broadcasting corporation of a "V for victory" propaganda campaign which the Germans promptly claimed they had or iginated for their own purposes. Britton, in a speech aimed at the" occupied countries, told the people that the time had come for them to strike back at their nazl enslavers. . "Tomorrow the V army Eu rope's invisible army of many millions will come into being," he said. "It is the date of Eu rope's mobilization against the Germans." He said the mobilization should be carried out with strictest discipline, continuing: "It will begin at midnight 24 hours from now and continue all day. July 20 will become one of the milestones of the war." Britton urged all his European listeners to join the army, point ing out that they could do two things: "Take a vow at the earliest moment Sunday to continue faithfully this fight the best way you can for your country's in dependence and honor and that of the other nations enslaved by the nazi Germans. "You are asked to take every opportunity this Sunday to demonstrate to the Germans the mobilization of the V army by putting V s on walls and everywhere you can put them and by beating out the V sound three dots and a dash wher ever you get a chance. "Let the V splash from one end of Europe to the other. . 'The time has come for you to act. You are asked to join a disciplined army, . a strange army but one to which it is an honor to belong. It is an army which the Germans fear. "You have probably noticed that , the Germans are so alarmed by your V's that they are trying to cause confusion by using the V themselves. This need not worry you. Leave the confusion where it belongs in Berlin. You know this tapping means 'fate knock ing on the door.' The Germans will not drown out the knock ing of fate, however loud they beat, and when they rap out V they merely are signaling their own impending doom. "We shall hurry it as much as we can." 70,000 Pictures Slated for Movie Exhibition Here Seventy . thousand pictures, gathered by Charles White dur ing his career as U. S.
