Ivan "Hud" Jacohscn, former
UiHveinity of Washington tu
dent, c 1 eric In the American Icgu
lion staff at Oslo when Norway
was seized by the Germans and
taken captive by them and con
fined for seven mouths in a con
centration camp, will speak at
Klamath Union Ihk.Ii school audi
torium Sunday evening, January
11, under the auspices of the
local lode of Sons of Norway.
The profits from bis lecture
wilt be used to help finance ac
tivities at "Little Norway." Nor
wegian Air Force training base
near Toronto, Canada.
Youne. Jacobscn, aiied 22, win
confined for seven mouths In a
iiai concentration camp at Oslo.
At the end of that time be de
liberately broke bis arm by rais
ing his priMiu cot and allowlnx
it to crash down on his wrist, and
thus named admission to the
prison hospital. Eventually he
was released In an cxcbjmKc of
prisoners and reached this coun
try. His lecture will deal with
his experiences In the concentra
tion camp and with the story
of the German seizure of Oslo.
"Little Norway," the Norweg
ian Air Force training base at
Toronto, is an unusual institu
tion. The trainees are young
Norwegians who in one wuy and
another have escaped from their
German-held home land and
reached England. The British
government provides transportu-
tion to Toronto, where privates
in th truining cump receive a
I wage of $:i() a month from the
j Norwegian government-in-exile.
Each turns back half his pay.
which goes, along with other
funds, to pay for planes. Of
ficers and privates ulike turn
buck half their pay for this pur
pose. When their training is com
pleted they return to England,
where the Norwegian Air Force
is based, for active service.

IB IKS IN 1941
The Klamath Falls municipal

$200 was made on practice hall
rental, and some $300 In refusal
to pay members appearing for
practices only and never for con
cert, according to the statement
The band played for the rodeo
commission during the July
Klamath Buckaroo Days .show,
the men paid at a rate of $5 per
day. The band also took part in
the rodeo parade and played a
concert on Modoc field before
probably the largest crowd to
hear the municipal organization.
The response was excellent,
Smith stated.
Average attendance by the
band members for parades, prac
tice and concerts, was higher the
past year than at any other time.
Average attendance was 29 out
of a possible 40 men, considered
excellent in view of the loss of
men through army duty and
moving.
Two concerts were donated by
the band during the year. Fol
lowing are the appearances, con
