Little Air Fight
American war planes ham
mered at Luzon targets, meeting
negligible Japanese air opposi
tion but heavy ack-ack in the vi
cinity of Clark field, about 55
miles south of American spear
heads and a prime objective on
the road to Manila.
"The enemy still is suffering
from the effects of surprise
caused by our landing in this sec
tor (Lingaycn) in his rear," head
quarters said today, "and has as
yet been unable to displace the
mass of his forces forward from
the south in sufficient strength
to offer serious resistance.
Picture of Situation
JHere at a glance is the official
picture of the military situation
along the 25 miles from the left
to right American flank:
On the extreme left, Yanks
have penetrated nine miles from
the coast to seize the road junc
tion of Manoga, southeast of fall
en San Fabian. They turned up a
road forking northwest toward
Pozornibio and there ran into
Japanese forces. That road leads
north to Baguio, summer capital
of the Philippines and possible
scat of Japanese leaders. There
are other road connections at
Manaoag leading toward Manila.
Capture Junction
To the west of this action,
troops moving south down a
highway from Dagupan toward
Manila captured the road junc
tion of Calasiao and pushed on
beyond Bulog. That constituted
a five mile gain. Bulog is on the
road to San Carlos from which a
network of roads spreads in all
directions.
Further west along the beach
head, forces moving south of cap
tured Lingayen have pushed
down highway 13 to a point past
Umanday. That is seven miles
inland. It also is behind the Agno
river which curves up to Lin
gayen gulf and empties into it
WBst of Lingayen town.
Other soldiers of Lt. Gen.
Walter Krueger's sixth army se
cured the. mouth of the river by
occupying Labrador on its west
bank. Labrador is on highway
seven : which leads westward
then dips south down Luzon's
west coast and later curves east
across the base of Bataan penin
sula. Reds Open Polish

Capture Imminent
Continued From Page One)
Germans have sacrificed 16,000
men killed, and approximately
650 tanks, on the basis of Rus
sian accounts.
Official and unofficial Russian-reports
produced the im
pression the German garrison
was on the verge of collapse.
These reports stirred hopes in
the soviet public that the Hun
garian capital, under direct as
sault since December 29, would
be fully in the red army's pos
session in another day or two.
Frances Farmer
Disappears Again
RENO, Nev., Jan. 1 ()
Frances Farmer, the former mo
tion picture star, was the object
of a search today, the second in
a year.
Her aunt, Edith Cestings of
Smith Valley, Nev., told Reno
police they were walking
through Reno last night when
Miss Farmer left her side, not
to be seen again. She said her
niece had been staying with her.
In asking police to aid the
search, the aunt said the 5 foot
6 inch woman weighs 125 pounds
and was wearing brown slacks
and a bright green coat over a
blue-gray jacket.
Miss Farmer was found in
Anlioch, Calif., last year and
relatives said she had disap
peared a few days before in
Reno.,

republican liquor commission
and for a republican board of
control.
'I have investigated this, and
I honestly believe there was
absolutely no crookedness or
graft, and that the liquor com
mission did what was best for
the state. Have any facts been
brought to light to show any
thing is wrong?
"This is just a case of bad
jitters on the part of Governor
Snell."
OLYMPIA, Jan. 12 P) The

point a committee from the
Washington legislature to work
with a similar committee from

"The feeling of the average

be laid off, can now be dis
pelled." Volume Not Divulged
The volume of munitions
scheduled for shipment to the
French army was not divulged,
but other sources have given the
impression that it is a substan
tial part of the $2,500,000,000 in

turns now instead of March 15.
This has one big advantage:
Those who file their final re
turn by January 15, and pay
whatever tax is due with it, can
forget about any other January
15 duties.
But some folks don't find it
convenient to file a return now.
Suppose you don't know what
your .1944 income was, and are
waiting for the exact figures. If
so, you may have some other
tasks to perform January 15.
Read on:
Gave Estimate
Being one of the 15,000,000,
you probably gave the govern
ment an estimate of your 1944
tax last April 15.
If for some reason you haven't
filed such a declaration, it is due
January 15. Use Form 1040cs,
and make the closest estimate
you can. Under the circumstanc
es you'll have to pay the whole
estimated tax in one lump. This
will hit a lot of farmers because
they were not required to file
declarations last April.
If you have already filed a
declaration, you can amend it
January 15. Use the same form,
writing "amended" at the top.
Amending your estimate is often
a good idea if the first guess
was wrong though it's not com
pulsory unless you underesti
mated your tax by 20 per cent or
more.

Sgt. Leigh Ackcrman and Of
ficer Oscar Gerlcve, manning the
prowl ear, quostlonod the man
who said the car had been
purchased by his wife, a guest
at the hotel. He was asked for
his identification card. Officer
Gerlcve then said he recognized
the man as one who Thursday
night, asked him for a fuse while
driving a car later reported
stolen by G. F. Grote of New
York.
As Officer Gerlcve started to
place the man in the prowl car,
the prisoner broke and ran. The
officer gave chase, ordered him
to stop and fired one shot in the
air. Gerlcve pursued the man
to the rear of 1151 Pine where
he was found with a clothes line
wire twisted around his neck.
The officer, assisted by Pvt.
Clarence E. Pierce, H and S com
pany, Marine Barracks, released
the wire. The man, identified
as Thrash, appeared unconscious
and Dr. Peter H. Rozendal, city
physician, was called. Dr. Rozen
dal pronounced Thrash okay and
an officer was ordered to stay
by Thrash for the remainder of
the night.
He is a veteran of overseas

Yard Salute, a weekly, published

The battle started on the floor
of the sound while Lawrence

said he felt two of the six-foot
tentacles grasp him, turned and
saw the octopus' bulk about the
size of his own body, alongside
him. .
Drawing his knife, the diver
managed to slash off sections ot
two tentacles but immediately
was grasped by other writhing
arms. Filially, his attendants
drew him to the surface, the
octopus clinging lightly to him
like an old-mnn-of-the-sca. It
was hauled out on the diving
