PACE TWO HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON .IT i m m hi if 1 11 SCHOO L CHILDREN E I C PROGRAM Thirteen hundred school chil dren, involving boys and girls from the fourth grades through junior high school, acquitted themselves creditably when they appeared in the second annual grade school festival Friday afternoon in the Pelican court. Directors Andrew Loney Jr., Llllie Darby and John O'Con nor oresented a sDlendid uro gram of voice and instrumental music which far outranked any thing that has been heard here in the past in the line of ele mentary music. Outstanding were the ad- vanced groups which readily show whv Klamath Union high school is taking top ranking honors in music as the young' sters advance one grade higher each year. Talent from the Junior high school band will go into the KUHS band in the fall. . Credit goes to the three dl rectors as well as the music in structors in the various schools who aided in the training of the choral and instrumental groups. Andrey Loney Jr., supervisor of music, announced the George H. Adler music award which will be given annually for the next five years to the boy or girl showing trie greatest aa vancement in music. This award of $100 is available to any child in the elementary system and is to be the gift of Dr. Ad ler because of his interest in the field of music. E A large crowd attended the navy showing of war films last . night at the KC hall, held under the auspices of the Central La bor union, AFL. These films, "Battle for the Beaches," 'Task Force," and "Life and Death of the USS Hornet," told a vivid story of the part our navy is playing in the waging of the war against our enemies and warned against over confidence and com placency. Petty Officer 3c Bud Billings of the U. S. coast guard told of his experiences in the landing at Tarawa and Chief Bo'sn Mate Howard E. Rice of the navy in dustrial incentive division thanked the union members for their loyalty and cooDeration Chief Rice stated that in all the places he has traveled in the in terest of stimulating production, he has received finer cooperation in Klamath Falls than in any other place. He especially thank ed C. D. Long, business repre sentative of the Carpenters' un ion and Earl Edsall, business rep resentative of the Teamsters' un ion. . .. He further stated that if all communities showed the fine spirit of cooperation that is shown here in Klamath Falls, we could cut down the number of days that it is going to take to win the war. Survivors Tell Of Sudden Blast On Liberty Ship SEATTLE, May 20 Pi The explosion which sank the Liber ty shin John Slraub in Alaskan waters, April 19, was so sudden those on board found themselves up to their waists in ice water before they were fully aware what had happened, survivors re lated here. Ensign Bruce S. Spang, third mate, said the explosion occurred at midnight. "I was blown into the alley way and the ship began to sink immediately," he said. "It was pitch dark. Lifeboats were gone. Oil on the water was burning. The ship was sinking so rapidly I was standing in ice water up to my waist. I jumped in and swam to an overturned lifeboat." Fifty-five men were lost in the btraub sinking. Twenty men were picked up by a rescue ship the next morning. STIES T II!
