, attempts to advance on the Bel
sorod sector. '
While still working hard to
break through in the Belgorod
area, the Germans attacked
strongly in the Orel-Kursk sec
tor at the northern end of the
Kursk salient.
Big Force Used
Up to 400 tanks and a large
force . of infantry attacked on
one narrow sector. The Russians
reported many tanks destroyed
and more than 2000 men killed.
At another position on this
front soviet aviation broke up a
German attack before it could
get under way.
Soviet tanks, following the
favorite tactics of digging them
selves into the ground and
lighting from ambush, account
ed for a large number of 162
tanks which the Germans were
said to have lost yesterday. The
nasi, airforce lost only 31 planes
yesterday, the smallest number
since the offensive began.

1924, at Bonners Ferry, Idaho.
When 16 years of age, while
working at Grants Pass, he join
ed the Oregon National Guard
at the first mobi Illation. He had
been with the local National
Guard and was one of its young
est members, being just 14 at
the time. With the Grants Pass
outfit he went with Company C,
186th infantry, to Fort Lewis,
transferring to anti-tank com
pany, of the 186th. Later he was
identified with the 194th tank
battalion and sailed for The
Philippines on September 8,
1941.
Christmas Cable
Parents of young Karrer last
heard from him when they re
ceived a Christmas eve cable in
1941, shortly after Pearl Harbor.
He had written several times
prior to that time but the cable
ended any further communica
tion. On' January 30, 1943, the war
department advised Karrer's
father that his son was a prison
er of war. Through the Red
Cross the family has written,
but no replies have reached here.
The Karrers have four other
sons, all younger than Roy. They
are Boyd, Neal, Dean and Loren.
Roy was a graduate of Pelican
grade school and attended Klam
ath Union high school for three
years. His father is employed as
lumber grader at Ewauna.

ago. Melvin was baptised in the
First Presbyterian church during
his residence on Coos Bay. He
attended Klamath Union high

National Guard when that unit
was mobilized as Battery A in
1940. Going from here to Fort
Stevens, the youth served until
June, 1941. when he was ordered
to Fort McDowell, California.
He visited his family on a 20-day
furlough at that time. Arriving
at Fort McDowell he was sta
tioned there but one week when
he left for active duty in The
Philippines.
Last word from Melvin reach
ed his parents shortly after Pearl
Harbor, the letter written pos
sibly two or three weeks before
that date. Melvin's father is em
ployed at Lamm Lumber com
pany at Modoc Point In addi
tion to his parents he has) twol
sisters, Mrs. Ethel Ford of this
city, Mrs. Violet Andrews of Los
Angeles and two brothers, Harry
of Portland and Thomas of Cas
cade Locks. Melvin was listed
as a member of Company K, 31st
infantry, Fort McKinley, The
Philippines.
Parents Notified
Mr. and Mrs. P. Earl Greear

tection crews composed largely
of inexperienced men and boys.
There is no reservoir of manpow
er to draw upon for fire fighting
without interrupting work in the
logging woods, the mills and
farms, and the war effort de
mands that lumber and food pro
duction go ahead without inter
ruption, Since the forest service
does not wish to interfere with
recreational use and freedom of
movement through the forest any
more than nocassary, the clos
ures will be lifted as soon as
weather conditions permit in tho
fall, according to Cliff. The pro
tective agencies are confident
that they can count on the coop
eration of the public in making
the closures effective and keep
lng fire out of the forests this
year.

mitted in three areas on the
Fremont forest. One Is the Sit
ver creek area which Includes
all lands within the Fremont for

Silver Lake-Sycan road and
north and west of the south and
east boundary fences of the ZX
Sycan ranch. Open also for rec
reational use will be the Gear-hart-Chewaucan
area. This area
includes such fine fishing streams
as Dairy creek and the Chewau
can river and most of their trib
utaries, and Deadhorse, Camp
bell and Blue lakes. The third
locality In which recreational
use will be permitted Is the War
ner mountain area which in

of the Bulls Prairie-Drakes peak

Early strcniith of coppers and

selected industrials in the latter
part of today's stock market with
resultant gains running to a point
or moro for favorites, many of
which touch 3-yoar peaks.
The advance was accomplish
ed in rclotively quiet dealings
although blocks of 1000 to 10,000
shares of low-priced issues, usual
ly unchanged, put the day's
turnover at around 1,000,000
shares. PIjwi marks were well in
the majority near tho close.
Getting Into the "new high"
class were Santa Fc, Goodyear,
Standard Oil (N.J.), Socony,
Pepsi-Cola, Twentieth Century
Fox and Alleghany preferreds.
Front liners included Anacon
da, Kennecott, Southern Pacific,
U. S. Steel, U. S. Rubbur, Mont

and Chrysler.
Among backsliders were Doug
las Aircraft, Curtiss-Wrlght,
