Junior High Teams ' Under the plan, the junior high school would have its own form of student government and its own athletic teams. The football squad would practice on the Klamath Union high school field, and would use the field house, dressing room and show ers. , Upon completion of the eighth -trade work, a diploma would be .Issued to each student, and grad uation exercises would be held In the KUHS auditorium. ?'

IpENTHOLATU SOVIETS PULL F (Continued from Page One) said powerful German on slaught in the Rxhev area, 135 miles northwest of Moscow, forced an outnumbered Russian defense force to yield ground, but denied German claims of a victory in which 30,000 Russian troops were reported trapped. The fighting, certainly not more than 150 miles from Mos cow, was seen as a potential new threat to the soviet capital. The Russian account said the Germans launched an offensive July 2, and that both sides lost heavily in fighting through July 13. Total Russian casualties were placed at 7000 killed and wound ed and 5000 missing. Directed Verdict Ends Langslet Hancock Suit A directed verdict for Chester L. Langslet, the defendant, end ed the trial of a circuit court case brought against Langslet by Guy Hancock, who sued on two promissory notes in a case involving about $140. Judge D. R. Vandenberg first denied a motion for a directed verdict by Arthur Schaupp, at torney for the plaintiff, and shortly afterwards granted a motion for a verdict made by Wilson Wiley, Langslefs attor ney. Judge Vandenberg has dis missed the case of Sunshine Lubricants versus Ivory pine Lumber company et al., on mo tion of the plaintiffs attorney, Harry- D;- Boivin. Labor Board Cracks Down on UIIIIB dICCI (Continued from Page One) of the split decisions the board has handed down. These mem bers have come to no decision on the exact amount of a wage increase in "Little Steel," the sources said, but have a reached a general understanding on the formula that will be applied. In congress Rep' Rich (R-Pa.) introduced a bill providing that whenever the labor board rules on the case the pay of all sold iers, sailors, marines and coast guardsmen "shall thereupon be automatically increased by the same amount as such increase in the compensation of workers in the steel industry." Douglas Howser, Carrier 13, Gets Navy Call "Number 13 is going to be un lucky for somebody, and I don't mean myself," smiled Douglas J. Howser, postal carrier 13 in the suburban district, as he an nounced word that he has been given a specialists' rating first class in the U. S. navy. Howser, who already has two brothers in the navy, is waiting his call for preliminary training at Norfolk, Va., and hopes for foreign duty after that. . Third to go from the post office here, Howser will leave a 12-year service record behind him. Mrs. Howser, he said, will remain in Klamath Falls- for the time being. 1 ill BEFORE DRIVE MONEY In Your Pocket Phone 3124 and place your ad pocket In Bastille Day Shows Grim Accompaniment (Continued from Page One) said. The killing of Relnhard Heydrich, Gestapo chief for Bo hemia and Moravia, cost about 1200 Czech lives in reprisal and Yugoslavs expressed fear of ac tion In kind in Croatia and else where in dismembered Yugo slavia, "The Gestapo guards ran amuk after the bombing," the spokesman said, "shooting at everyone moving on the streets and hurling hand grenades through nearby windows. "During the day the Germans rounded up almost all persons in the immediate neighborhood and shot them." German occupation authori ties in the Netherlands were re ported to have put that country on an "invasion footing" and to have enforced new defense pre cautions in Belgium and north' ern France. This coincided with an increasing clamor in the Brit Ish press for the opening of a second front to relieve Russia. B eh TO Hill DUTY County Commissioner Eryll Emorri "Jack" Benner has been ordered to report to Portland on July 21 for induction into the army as a volunteer officer can didate, - selective service head quarters announced today.

Selection of a successor for the fall gen eral election will be up to the county democratic nominating committee. Price Control Battle Boils In Senate (Continued From Page One) price control and leave uncon trolled 80 per cent of what goes Into prices. While the senate entered its second day of debate on changes Price Administrator Henderson declares would cripple much of the program, the house agricul ture committee came forward with sharp criticism of his pol icies. In a formal report on a crop loan bill the house committee declared It was "very -apparent the price administrator Is not concerned about parity" be cause under present ceilings "practically all farm products are selling below parity." The argument against diving into a strange stream is built on rock foundation.

Eyewitnesses Tell Of U. S. Operations In Aleutians (Continued from Page One) over, with the score much In the navy's favor. Native Description The Japanese attack on the island was described by Steve Gardner, young chief of the na tives, who was among 24 Icfl behind by the vessel. He and his tribesmen were hiding In a barabara, or sod hut, near tho village when Gardner sighted five four-motored Japanese bombers coming In from the east. "The planes' first target was small Island in the harbor, used only tho day before for stores of gasoline," Gardner re lated. "Next the bombers made two trips over the village, and cored a hit on the vacant schoolhouse. Then they dropped six bombs all wasted." Returning, the enemy planes swooped low j to machine gun tents in one of tho fishing vil lages. Then they left, roaring directly over the hut In which the natives hid, unharmed.

Editorials on News (Continued From Page Onoi Greek armies npnrt with one terrific blitz lunge. They havo apparently not been so successful in Russia, for while they have broken through there has been no sign so far that the Russian armies were broken or disorganized. Instead, the dis patches relate cpcatcdly that tho Russians havo been able to retire In good order In tho face of tho superior forco tho Ger mans were able to concentrate for the drive. TTHAT, after all, ts the Import ant point and the point to watch In the fighting now going on. If the Russians are able to SAVE THEIR ARMIES, as they did in last year's fighting, there Is always the chance that the time will come, as it did last fall, when they will catch tho Ger mans too far extended ruid be able to. drive them back In re treat as at Rostov at the be ginning of last winter.
