Beavers at Bend
Feared Inspired by
Paul Bunyan Tales
BEND, March 14 (P) This
thriving lumbering city, nour
ished by the legends of Paul
Bunyan, (eared today that the
beavers had heard tha fables
of the great tlmberman and
were taking his exploits too
seriously.
Bend residents didn't mind
when the beavers started log
ging operations along the Des
chutes river on the outskirts of
town. They were mildly con
cerned when trees began top
pling in Drake park. It was
serious when trees began to
fall on private lawns. But when
the beaver started to work on
trees In the yard of ona local
lumber company striking at the
city's Industrial heart that was
too much.

NEW YORK, March 14 (ac
cumulative military and politi
cal evidence Indicate tha im
minence of highly important op
eration centering about the
area between the desolate North
Cape at the top of Norway and
the cruel 1000-foot granite cliff
of the Russian Murmansk coast.
Major air and naval opera
tions already are under way, in
volving German capital ships,
British torpedo plane undoubt
edly operating from an aircraft
carrier, other British warships
and United Nations convoys.
The cannot be explained en
tirely by the routine movement
at American and British sup
plies to Archangel. Mora than
one competent analyst 1 con
sidering whether the western
allied powers will pound a wedge
of well-equipped power into tne
top of Europe when the mid
night sun shines thl coming
summer.
Free Europe, a review of in
ternational affair published in
London, said today that an al
lied spring offensive in the wast
should have a good chance of
success, for the forces now con
centrated in the British Isles
presumably are stronger than
those the German have disposed
from Kirkenes, Norway, to Hen-
daye, France.
Thl commentary declared
that both military and political
reason commended Norway as
a spot where the allies could
strike with overwhelming forces.
It added that control of Upper
Scandinavia would give the
United Nation a convenient link
with Russia through Finland
and would put them in position
to strike directly into the heart
of Germany.
A common U. S.-British-Ru-sian
fighting front could be
thrown quickly across the thin
tip of Finland and this front in
time might provide Just the im
petus which the Russians need
to turn the whole German north
ern flank and colapse it upon the
Baltic states and East Prussia
Itself.
There are 1500 miles of sea
from the present United States
bases In Northern Ireland to the
North Cape, but it is barely 30
miles across the northeastern ex
tremity of Norway to Russian
territory, and only SO miles
farther east to Murmansk.
Eight hundred miles straight
south of Murmansk, reachable
almost directly by railway, is the
Staraya Russa front where the
Russians have pushed back clos
er to Germany than anywhere
else. Staraya Russa is only 130
miles from Latvia and then it Is
Just 400 miles to East Prussia.
Throughout the long winter
the world has almost forgotten
about the Murmansk front and
the Germans and Finns there
have huddled somewhere about
the city and on the Rybachi pen
insula to the northwest, quis-
cent but close enough, it ap
pears, to make it necessary for
allied supplies to proceed on
east to Archangel. The northern
end of the Russian counter of
fensive has, however, freed cap
tured sections of the railway
line running south to Leningrad
and beyond.

Pond
ews Note a
By MAURICE O'CALLAQHAM
Two days since tha appoint- '
ment of Andrew Loney as city
musical director has not damp
VI penea the ardor
4
or cooled the
wrath of the
student of
Klamath high.
Demonstrations
of different na
ture have been
held, the meet
outstanding be
ing the unauth
held Friday
noon.
The students poured into the
auditorium until many were still
standing in the back and at tha
doors. "We- want Stanfield"
was shouted above the hammer
ing of hands and feet The short
meeting was Interrupted with
applause when Stanfield's nam
was mentioned or some of his ac
complishments were spokeu of.
The meeting could have turned
into something more U given
half a chance. The only thine
that restrained the students was
the promise that an assembly
would be held early next week
to hear the views of the admin
istration.
It was brought out in the
meeting that Loney refused the
job as head of the music depart
ment here in 1938 when Stan
field took over the job (see the
last column- of high school
new.)
The new cf the assembly
traveled fast for there were sev
eral sympathetic townspeople
among the audience. -
At first the auditorium Was
not opened to the students, but
when it was discovered the tu
dents would not go to their
home rooms, the place was open
ed for the meeting.
It has come to our attention
that a few persona don't believe
the students should force -tha)
matter. We won't comment on
that. They are merely taking a
broad-minded attitude in the
matter. More drastic steps could
have been taken that would give)
the school a bad name. With
this in mind, the students have)
held down their demonstrations
in the matter. '
It is our personal opinion that
the students are so incensed ever
the "deal" they won't let it go by
the boards until a full and satis
factory agreement is reached.
We have tried to report this
stir among the students object
ively., That the demonstrations
have been unconventional must
be admitted. But as we indi
cated in our remarks previ
ously, they indicate the reac
tions of students in a democracy
where the "people" will be
heard from If thing do not ge
to their liking. The demonstra
tions also prove the loyalty of
youth to its friend and while
Charles Stanfield may be a littie
embarrassed at this mass demon
stration of affection and loyalty
he can not help getting thrill
from thus learning the worm
place he holds in the hearts of
the students of Klamath high. .
