PAGE EIGHT BLOCK LEADERS TO IL At a meeting of block leader council and precinct leaders of Klamath Falls and the suburban Breas Thursday evening at the Little Theatre, Lt. Betty Her ring, recruiting officer for the WAC here, asked the assistance of the Civilian Service corps in determining the number of young women eligible for join ing women's army service. She suggested a survey pro ject to be put on by the block leaders. Lt. Herring stressed the fact that this is not in any way a high pressure method of enlisting women, but merely a method of finding where the eligible women are, so that they may contact her and obtain in formation about this branch of their country's service. The group accepted this pro ject and the work will be done probably the second week in September, or as soon as mate rial is available. Dr. Peter Rozendal. county health officer, presented another project for National Health week, September 12 to 18, which was also accepted and will be combined with the WAC survey. , After the meeting there was a general "get acquainted hour" at which time refreshments were served.

Mounibatten In Into this picture comes Mount batten as the new Southeast Asia commander. It gives the allies their greatest opportunity of compelling Japan to spread her air force over an extremely wide range to fend off attacks which can be timed to come from either end of the geogra phical pincers. Any attack launched by Mountbatten on Burma would draw Japanese forces from Mac Arthur's end, or at least reduce the number of reserves avail able. FACTOR! CITY (Continued from Page One) particularly coastal watchers who heard the unbroken, muted growl of bomber engines for more than two hours. There was wide unofficial agreement that the RAF never before had thrown so much at .the enemy across the channel at one time. Nuernberg, ' which has great diesel plants and motor and electrical works, plainly had joined Berlin on the list of Ger man cities to get the Hamburg treatment. It was last hit Au gust 10 and after that attack it was estimated that 45,000 had been made homeless and 2500 had been killed. It had been raided six times previously. In the August 10 raid about 1500 tons of high explosives and incendiaries were dropped on the city. Canadian Used A Canadian group formed part of the Nuernberg force and two Canadian bombers were reported missing. Canadi an Mosquito planes also parti cipated last night in sorties over France and the low countries. A third series of nazi bulle tins they were issued as thick ly as on the day after the last Berlin attack upped the figure of British plane losses ' to "at least 62." TO (Continued from Page One) Russians almost 500 miles from Stalingrad, where last winter's far-reaching drive began, and has carried them to a point more than half way from .Stalingrad. to the Pohsh border. Cross Pul River Red Star said the Germans withdrew across the Psel to the west bank of the river after the Russians forced them to evacu ate Lebedin, 25 miles north of Zenkov. After blowing up bridges over the Psel and leaving the Russians in control of the east bank, the Germans appeared to be attempt ing to erect a powerful defense line on the west bank. Poltava Exposed Russian occupation of the east bank of the upper stretch of the Psel exposed Poltava, German base 45 miles south of Zenkov, to a flank attack. A German communique, broadcast by Berlin and record ed by The Associated Press, said German troops in the-Kharkov area and southwest of Orel were engaged yesterday "in heavy de fense fighting against superior soviet infantry and tank forma tions." The Russians suffered heavy losses, including 161 tanks destroyed, the communique said, Fourth Push The new drive, resulting In the capture of Svensk, is the fourth major push undertaken by the red army since the sum mer offensive began July 5. It was also announced in Mos cow last night that Col. Gen. An drei Ivanich Teremenko, hero 'of Stalingrad, had been promoted to the rank of full general. Cartoons to Assist Mexican Education MEXICO CITY, Aug. 28 VP) The animated cartoons of Walt Disney are to go to work in the Mexican educational system, it was announced here today.

The worst beating was admin istered to the Germans by the Mitchells, which sent 16 nazi planes crashing to the g r o u n d out of a total of 40 to 50 fight ers which sought to turn back the bombers and their P-38 es cort Almost two dozen Fighters also pounced on the Fortresses which likewise were escorted by Lightnings. In the Caserta attack, 35 to 45 Fighters came up to intercept the Marauders but they were driven off by Lightnings. Cost Nine Planes All the day and night opera tions cost the allies nine planes. The Fortresses concentrated their attack on Sulmona, vital link in Italy's east coast rail line extending down to the heel and toe, in 12 minutes, dropping many tons of high explosives on the freight yards, munition stores, locomotive sheds, repair shops, warehouses, railway cars and the station. (A German broadcast record ed by the Associated Press said nazi bombers raiding Algiers harbor : Thursday night hit one warship and seven transports. Yesterday's allied communique reported this attack, but said there was only slight damage.) NIPPOS FLEE AS U. 5. TAKEHARBOR (Continued from Page One) American and Australian troops are infiltrating Japanese posi tions from the west and some have made contact with the en emy at the southwestern end of the field. A number of enemy pillboxes have been eliminated. Air action was centered in the Solomons sector. In the vicinity of Vila, Mitchell medium bomb ers. Avenger torpedo bombers and Dauntless dive bombers for the second straight day attacked gun positions and supply barge hideouts.

Physical education will be stressed and swimming re quired. Speaking of the harvest pro gram for this year, Gralapp said that students would, help with the harvest this year as last. In a discussion of post war problems Gralapp said that it was estimated that there would be about 10,000,000 young men returning to civilian life when the war is over and that prob ably about 5,000,000 of these would not be trained for a job. He said that the aim of educa tors after the war would be to give these boys an education in both vocational and academic subjects to fit them for the de mands of postwar industries. Nelson Reed was chairman of the Rotary meeting. Sea-Air Power to Supply Big Punch HAMILTON, N.

I t llllit II llllllJllllllk IIIIUUIILV- ment; "All resistance has coased (as of Thursday night) on New Georgia." Tho Japs remaining at Bsl roko harbor fled In barges across the Kula gulf to Vila on nearby Kolombnngura Island. Ton thou sand Japs are supposed to be now on Kolnmbungara, with us hammering them from New Georgia on ono sido and Veils Lavelln on the other and our air and surface naval forces cutting them off from supply and rein forcement. It looks like 10.000 more lit tle yellow men are due to die for the glory of the empire. EVERY time that happens, lt HELPS US. Choosing death Instead of sur render is hot stuff from the glory standpoint, but not wholly effective from the MILITARY standpoint. Tho motto of the Marines at Guadalcanal was: "Let the en emy die for his country; we'll stay alive and FIGHT for ours." That's the better way. AT the other end of our Solo mons plnccr, we're closing In on Salamaua airfield and are reported in contact with the Japs at one end of the field, where we're eliminating Jap pillboxes. Speaking of pincers, .a New Delhi (India) dispatch today re fers to a big ono we may have in the making with Mountbatten driving into Burma as one jaw and MacArthur thrusting toward Truk as the other. That would be a variation of tho old front and back door strategy, compell ing tho enemy to divide his forces. Your map will tell you of Its possibilities. n.t. ..t lan.
