REPORTS
BLAGKQL
Exactly six hours after a com
mitted met to organize Malin
civilian defense, tho southend
community underwent a success
ful 20-minute blackout, accord
ing to Irving Capek, Malin city
recorder.
On an inspection tour of the
town not a light could be found
burning and citizens of Malin
cooperated to the utmost in help
ing volunteers do their work, it
was asserted. Some lights in the
farming district could be seen
burning, but this was due in
most cas to failure to hear the
signal.
- Eye witnesses who climbed
Bryant mountain said that the
lighted spot that marked Malin
darkened in less than one min
ute. The blackout started at 8:40
p. m. and the all-clear signal
came at 9 p. m.
Members of the general com
mittee were A. Kalina, R. S.
Thompson, Mervyn Wilde, Ever
ett Jones and Irving Capek.
It was stated that the "excel
lent and orderly manner" in
which the blackout was handled
was largely due to the efforts
of the American Legion, city
fire and police volunteers and
their various leaders.
McCollum's mill, with 70
people, held blackout in con
junction with that at Malin and
success was reported there.
The following appointments
were given out:
. Coordinator, A. Kalina; plan
ning division, E. Jones and Ca
pek; protection division. Merle
Loosley with Louis Kalina; po
lice, Joe Halousek with Dick
Stevenson; fire, Louis Kalina
with Mervyn Wilde; necessities,
division, A. Kalina, Victor Va
sak; me'cal, Dr. Trout; com
munications division, R. S.
Thompson; short wave radio,
Frank Krizo; public utilities di
vision, Vic Kalina, Mervyn
Wilde.
' Several other groups have not
yet been organized, but this will
be done rapidly.- Citizens of
Malin were urged to register and
offer their services to the de
fense unit. A class in first aid
will be started immediately and
all who are Interested were urg
ed to attend.
' Aircraft observers are under
the direction of H. Elvig and

Engineer Says
Japs Illogical
In Faee-Savina
PORTLAND. Dec. 16 VP)
Henry Stevens, Bonneville dam
engineer who once constructed
a hydroelectric plant in Japan,
aaid yesterday the Japanese
could not last long in war with
the United States.
. ' He doubted that they have
enough materials and he doubt-
' ed their ability. '
"Their engineers are the most
illogical fellows I ever saw. All
their reports disregard the scien
tfic facts if they can save some
body's face that way," he told
reporter.
"Japanese engineers came
from all over the country to
watch while we were building
the Kiso hydroelectric plant.
After - they've watched you
three or four months they think
they know everything you do
and. start doing it their own
way. Then they need face-sav
tag."
He predicted that if U. S.
bombers head for Japan, the
prize target will be the electri
cal substation at Osaka.
- "It's the biggest electrical sub
station in the world with lines
from seven major power devel
nnmpntfl TeaHlnff rMrnntlv' 4n It
out that, they would knock -out
the entire manufacturing center
of Japan."

HIGH SCHOOL
News Notes and
Comment
tar-
By MAURICE O'CALLAGHAN
School has begun for the last
week before Christmas vacation.
This week will undoubtedly be
iw - - --.broken up by
jfeaw a s s e m b 1 ie s ,
f - parties a n d so
1 forth.
As this week
starts so starts
the last week of
the 'Hi-Y food
drive. -.It is very
important that
the drive this
year be a suc
cess. Although
most wages have been increased
many have not, along wih the
rise in wages comes a rise in
prices of all foods and clothing
and other necessities. Those
whose wages do not increase
with prices are left behind, while
those who are unemployed have
little or no chance of a descent
Christmas.
To those unfortunates each
year are given food ts make it
a happier Yuletide season.
Thus far the drive has not
been very good, but there is still
the better part of a week left in
which there is time for a great
load of food to arrive via stu
dents to the high school.
A meeting of the student con
gress was held Monday after
noon at which many important
moves were made.
. First, a constitution for the
newly formed Library club was
approved. The Library club is
made up of girls who assist in
the freshman-sophomore library.
Second, the congress voted to
make a fund of the money left
over from the recent Red Cross
membership drive, plus whatever
is necessary to make the total
$10, which will be turned over
to the Red Cross war relief drive
which is now in progress.
Third, it was voted that a cen
tral voting place be set up for
all student body elections, and
that a method be devised by
which the votes cast in an elec-
tion could be counted without
delay, and the results immed
! iately announced to the student
i body.
Fourth, the representatives
were asked to make announce-
; ments to the home rooms Tues
I day. If they haven't, blitz 'em,
.
Sunday night during the black'
out the traffic squad was at the
school to go to their posts if
necessary.
IHS very nice that the stu
dents would want to come to
school and protect it from in'
cendiary bombs and the like.
It is also nice to leave school
and know that someone will be
on hand if an air raid takes
place to guard the largest and
best plant in the Klamath area
It is also true that the traffic
squad is up against a tough prob
lem when they take charge dur
ing a basketball blackout. Those
who have the desire to go ber
serk remember that the squad
must maintain order under any
conditions. It is not pleasant to
think, what would happen if the
entire crowd went bad. So don't
get worried or hysterical, be
cause the boys might have to
take precautionary measures.
In the very near future black
out shutters will be placed in
use so that games may continue
undiiturbtd. Until that time t
there is a blackout remain calm,
cool and collected.
Thursday night the dramatics
and music departments will pre
sent a Christmas program jn the
auditorium of KUHS.
A play called "Why the
Chimes Rang" and music by
the A Cappella chorus will be
the feature of the evening.
The play will be one of the
greatest Christmas plays ever
presented in this end of Oregon
It is all open to the public
There is no charge. See it
You can't blame kids for won
dering why they have to go to
bed when they are not sleepy
and have to get up when they
are.
