CORREGIDOR, ManUa Bay,
March 10 (Delayed) (UP) At
least 1500 Japanese bombs,
mostly high explosives, inter
spersed with a few incendiaries,
have fallon on this fortress and
the garrison shows not the least
sign of faltering.
Countless Japanese neavy,
medium and dive bombers have
filled the sky, but the destruc
tion has been negligible ana be
yond a doubt a real disappoint
ment to Tokyo.
Corregidor, despite Ina sr
sence of fighter plane protection.
apparently has made the cost of
bombings protumuve to in
enemy.
Never has a Nipponese uigni
escaped unscathed from Cor-
regidor's straight-snooting anti
aircraft batteries.
Fires Started
- Some days they have destroy
ed a third to a half of the at
tacking planet.
For hours the enemy has
pounded away at : Corregldor,
causing huge bomb craters and
starting fires. But always when
the smoke cleared away a check
up showed that the damage was
only superficial.
The Japanese steered clear of
Corregidor's anti-aircraft guns
until . December 29, when 36
heavy and 10 dive bombers raid
ed the island for two hours,
dumping some 1000-pound
bombs.
That attack cost the Japanese
heavily 11 heavy bombers and
four dive bombers shot down
and others damaged. It was the
biggest one day score for Ameri
can anti-aircraft gunners.
After that costly lesson, the
enemy steered clear of these
rocks for two days. But on New
Year's day a lone Jap plane
suddenly dove from low-hanging
clouds, apparently bent on drop
ping its load on a special target.
A 50-caliber machine gun crew
was on its toes, however, and
it hit the plane so hard it never
emerged from, its dive, and
crashed into the sea without re
leasing its bombs.'
That Jap plane cost United
States taxpayers a total of $13
for 260 rounds of ammunition
the -machine gun expended.
... 400 Bombs Dropped
The following day 144 heavy
bombers, 13 dive bombers and
many pursuit planes came over
the . island. Because of low
clouds, only the dive bombers
attacked.
The greatest number of bombs
in any raid fell on January
when 99 heavies and a few pur
suits darkened the skies, releas
ing' approximately 400 bombs,
Our anti-aircraft shot down six
bombers and lilt others hard.
On the 14th, nine Japanese
planes dropped four bombs
apiece and four of these were
shot down, bolstering the sensa
tional average of Corregldor and
Bataan peninsula anti-aircraft
which to date have destroyed

Heaviest Bombings
Since then, the enemy's raids
on Correeidor have been few,
beine confined mostly to nuis
ance raids or reconnaissance.
This tiny island (15 square
miles) controlling Manila bay
has been subjected to the heav
iest bombings of any place in
the world.
It Is conceded that other war
theaters, including Malta, Lon
don, Chungking and a few
others, have been suniectea io
more raids with more bombs
dronoed. but the poundage
dumped here per square miie is
believed never to have been
equaled anywhere, even at Cov
entry.
Now. Correfiidor's battle scars
are noticeably disappearing and
from the highest point on the.
wrath in the student body as
a whole, .as well as In the
townspeople of Klamath Falls.
To familiarize you with the
record of Charles Stanfield in
KUHS, we will go over it
briefly.
Charles Stanfield came to
Klamath in 1938, when the
music department was an un
important "red-headed step
child." The band at that time
consisted of about 30 pieces. It
has been built up until now it
is a body of 105 uniformed mu
sicians, known throughout the
Pacific coast area as one ot the
finest.
Since his arrival here Stan
field has developed the entire
musical department so that it
is one of the leading groups of
the school. Stanfield has work
ed the various choruses of voices
to a place of high rating in mu
sical circles throughout the
state.
His drill teams have been
noted for their originality and
excellence by all who have seen
them on the local field and
court and at other athletic
events where they have participated.
He has worked weu wun
rallies and pep assemblies held
In the high school by the high
school students. ' -
He has started a high school
dance band that rates well
against any local professional
bands. -
That Is generally the belief
of the students of the school as
well as we can express It. You
may now form your own opin
ion on the matter.
This week's edition of the
Klamath Krater was edited and
written by a novice group of
Krater cubs. The paper Is as
good, In our opinion this time,
as the others have been In the
past. The cubs covered very
well the news of teachers and
classes of the high school.
We have just looked at the
paper and find it up to the
usual standard ot this year's
Kraters.
The part that should win ad
miration for the cubs it that
they put out the paper In thelr
spare time.
The cubs will have enough
experience next year to step
in and fill th shoes of present
staff members who won't be on
the staff next year.
