PAGE TWO FINES IMPOSED ,JE REIN BOAT Fines of $100 each, with 90 ''day probation, were imposed by Justice of the Peace Joe Mahoney on three men who were in the boat which overturned at Keno i Sunday evening resulting in the - drowning of Lyman Eugene Ar- ney. The charge in each case was hunting migratory wildfowl from a power boat. The defend' ants, who entered guilty pleas, were William Stacy, Eugene Reames and William A. Benton. No Intoxication Reames and Stacy were in "court Monday, and Benton ap peared on Tuesday morning. The judge gave the defendants time in which to pay the fines. Benton, in . court Tuesday morning, was questioned as to whether liquor was consumed in , ; the boat on Klamath river prior ' to the accident He replied there may have been a pint of liquor ' in the boat, and said he had a half-pint with him. He said he did not believe anyone was In toxicated. Benton said he did not believe the boat struck a boom log just before it capsized, but blamed the accident on too sharp a turn and the powerful motor. No Hole in Boat The defendant said he did not shoot at any migratory wild fowl, but that on one occasion he fired his gun into the water. State Officer Mark Sullivan said he had been told a gun dis charged: Just before the accident , and asked Benton if he thought the discharge might have. blown hole In" the- boat. Benton re plied that he remembered no gun discharge , just before the , boat capsized, and said there ' is no hole in the boat, which was recovered from the river at Keno. The accident' occurred shortly before 6 p. m. Sunday as the party was preparing to dock. ' In the boat at the time were .Arney, Stacy, Benton, and Stacy's 11-year-old son, William Stacy Jr. Reames swam to shore and three others were rescued by Ross Simmers and Dick Morgan -of Keno, who put out in a row ; boat Arney sank almost imme diately. ., -, Deadline Hears On Applications for Liqi uor Licenses All applications for stated Uquor licenses which city of ficers are asked to recommend should be received at the city hall by 12 noon December 28, !.the police,. -Judge's office an nounced Tuesday.

Tunis Hammered A French communique said a "powerful counterattack" by axis troops was beaten off west of Kairouan, 25 miles east of Pichon, and that the French were aided by the RAF in this battle. The French are driving to cut through to the coast, at Sousse.

A FRENCH force., aided by British planes, is reported to day to be driving, eastward in northern Tunisia, trying to cut through to the Mediterranean coast at Sousse. (Consult, your map.) The Germans are fighting like wildcats to stop this drive and keep open the 200 miles of Mediterranean coast, scrvod by a railroad as well as a highway, which they are still holding. One guesses they are holding it to keep open Rommel's lino of retreat Into Tunis, if ho gets that far. . DOTH sides in the African fight- ing are hammering at the ! other, fellow's communication ! and supply lines. German planes have bombed the allied ports of Bengasi,. Bono and Phillipeville, and the Ger mans claim their submarines operating off Ornn have sunk one allied transport and hit an other. ' fERMAN planes have raided Tripoli and Beirut, on the Syrian coast (thero are two Tripolls. one in Africa and the other in Syria), starting fires in oil depots and refineries. This may mean a hen on a new r.est. or it may mean merely that the Germans are trying to dis rupt British oil supplies, as one of the main pipelines from the Iraq fields reaches the Mediter ranean at Tripoli. NOTE particularly the con- communication and supply., This is a GLOBAL war. and keeping the various fronts supplied and reinforced is ALL-important. Whoever wins the battle of supply will win the war.
