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

diately. ., -,

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

Allied planes hammered again

of 11 enemy planes parked on
an airfield at Hun.
Axis planes, the Italian com

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

that far. .
DOTH sides in the African fight-
ing are hammering at the !

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-

is a GLOBAL war. and keeping

reinforced is ALL-important.
