Man Killed by Conveyor Chain at New Pine Creek NEW PINE CREEK Funeral rltea were held here last Satur day afternoon for Cecil Henry Aldridge, ago 43, who was killed when repairing the fuel convey or chain at the Crano Crack Lumber company' plant at Wil low ranch, Juno 2. Report on how tho accident occurred agree that Cecil had given hi helper, Harvey Win- yerd, the word to turn on the (team engine which operate the conveyor chain, a he had it back on the sprocket ready to go. Just a Harvey itarted for the long ladder going from the plat form under the chain down to the boiler room, a leaky valve had evidently caused enough steam-pressure to accumulate In the piston chamber of tho en gine, causing It to start the chain going prematurely. Harvey shot a- quick glance back at Cecil who was crawling through the chain on hi hands and knee about eight feet or less from the end of it. The sight so frightened Har vey that he never took time to go down the long ladder but leaped through the air down up on the steel top of the sterling boiler, a distance of 12 feet or more, then down to the ground, bent only on getting to the valve and turn it off, to save a man' life. But all this heroic quick thinking and action waa of no avail for the accumulated steam pressure had spent itself and the engine had again stopped of its own accord before Harvey could reach the valve. Nevertheless the damage had been done as the chain had traveled 30 or 40 feet and a man' life was snuffed out. Harvey, still frantic, dashed back up the ladder and found his co-worker mangled under the heavy chain and now in the conveyor trough, having passed up under tho chain around the end sprockets, bleeding profuse ly. He managed somehow to lift the chain alone sufficiently to get the body out. Some workers estimated that he had lifted aroun l 400 pounds. Cecil, still gasping for breath, was hurried too the Lakeview hospital but died on the way. Although Cecil had not lived around here very much of the time in the last 13 years, he was well known throughout the val ley and also In Surprise valley where, at Fort Bidwell, he had owned and operated a light plant for around 12 years. He had also worked for the Jensen Power plant up Pine Creek canyon, now owned by the California Public Service company. Cecil was born In Summer Lake February 28, 1900, the eld est son of George Harry and Eva Aldridge. He leaves to mourn his passing his mother, his wife, Thelma, three daughters, Mrs. Dorothy Hansan, Mrs. Betty Vas- sis and Emogene Reeves, all of Herlong, Calif. Also his brother, Delbert, one sister, Lena Smith, two grandchildren, two nephew and one niece. First umbrella Imported into the united States was brought to Baltimore, Md., In 1772.

I TUl TCWNHCP Priced frorr $1.29 to $ i n What About This Sftufiff, Dad? Don't get me wrong, Dad. Getting home for a spell and finding things pretty much the way I left them is the greatest sight in the world. I've been in some strange places in the last year, but as far as I'm concerned there isn't a spot in the whole South Pacific that can hold a candle to the patch of God's green earth I'm standing on right now. There's just one thing I didn't expect to see, Dad. It's this old scrap pile. Back in New Guinea when a new ack-ack gun or field piece rolled into position I used to think, Maybe Ma's old cast iron laundry stove is in that baby. Or my old music stand the one you tossed out when you saw I wasn't cut out to be the world's greatest violinist! Up town they tell me the Government has sent out another S.O.S. for more scrap. They say it's going to take every stray pound of scrap metal to fill the quota, and that's going to mean looking for it in every barn, tool shed, cellar, attic and kitchen cupboard fa the country. Why, there's enough in this one pile alone to make mincemeat out of dozen Zeros and a couple of subs to boot! I know you're swamped, Dad, with no help and working every acre of the farm thit year, but if you'd been where I've been and knew how badly this scrap is needed, you'd find some way to get it to town. Do it pronto, Dad, before harvesting comes along, or bad weather sets in. Better yet, let's load this stuff today, Dad, and I'll drive it to town for you. We can sell it to the junk man, or donate it to the U.S.O.,' Red Cross, or one of the other organiza tions enlisted in the second scrap round-up. My furlough' nearly up, Dad. Next week I'll be shipping out again ... some where. Wherever it is I'll feel a lot better if I know part of my own backyard it following me across, backing me up with ammunition from this old scrap.
