Mayor Describes Excelleni
Work Done by Shrine Club
By MAYOR ED OBTENDORF
At tho nntlonnl Hhrlnera' con
vention held lit Portland In 1022,
It was agreed by the delegates
that tho Shrlnrrg organization
should tnko It upon themselves
to build u hospital to euro for tho
uiifortunnto, crippled children
whosa parents wero unublo to
pay for tho proper medical at
tention.
Today there are 15 such hos
pital In the United Suites. At
ouo tlmu, It was hoped that theso
liosplluls would be ublo to ac
commodate all crippled children,
nut uuo 10 an epidemic of Minn
tile parulysls, they nre being oc
cupied by over 90 per cent of
polio cases. At the present tlmu,
tho Portland unit has a waiting
list of 1B7, ond it is becoming
greater, .
After tho polio epidemic, tho
Shrinars hospitnl found it neces
sary to ask for assistance outside
of their own orgunlznllon, as tho
needs of tho hospital were grow
ing with tho number of patient.
The Klamath' Falls Shrine club
was one of the first In tho stute
of Oregon to respond to this ploa
fnt hf.lil nnH iltinn ll.,. ti.n
they have furnished supplies of
ioou every inaiiKsgivliig.
Tho Klamuth Falls oraanlzn
tion has also supplied several
medical Instruments, which
were benoflclul in operations at
me nospuai.
In order to help In this
worthy .cause, the Klumuth Falls
Shrine club was organized In
1UJ4. The first donation was
sent to tho hospital by sponsor.
Ing tho Polack Brothers circus.
Howover, it was found thut not
enough proceeds woro netted In
this way, so in 1037, tho Shrine
club began holding dances for
mo benefit ol uic cripolod chli
drcn, and resulted iu a donation
of SB30 that year.
In 1044, the net income
amounted to $3373, and this
year wo oxpect to be able to pro.
sent $3000 to' the fund, as the
hospital Is being remodeled, In
eluding the operating room.
Wo are asking the citizens of
Klamath Falls and Klamath
county to help support this an
nual Shrlncrs benefit dance, as
this county has had moro pa
tients in tne hospital in compar
Ison to tho population than any
other district under the Port'
laud crippled children hospitnl
unit. You may purchase theso
tickets during the remainder of
the week at the First National
bank, tho United States Nation
al bank, J. C. Penney and Com-
Sany, Castlcberry's and Dick
tocdor's. This dance is to be
held at the Klamath Falls arm
ory on Saturday evening, April

Onenlng of a murine stuff non
commissioned officers' club In
the Willord hotel building quar
ters, formerly occupied by the
Elks1 officers' club was cele
brated iust night.
Colonel George O. Van Ordcn,
commanding officer of tho Ma
rine Burracks, and a number of
officers from tho burrocks and
townspeople attended tho open
ing Quartcrmastor Sergeant
Harold Gregory, manager of tho
marine clubs In town, welcomed
tho guests, and presented a
check for $500 to Exalted Ruler
Jack Llnman of the Elks lodge In
payment for furniture and other
criuipment in the clubrooms. He
said tho furniture originully cost
about Jiiuoii. ,
Murine Barracks officials said
the new club fills a need for
downtown recreation for ma
rines. It was explained by Elks lodge
officers that the decision to dis
pose of the furniture und cease
operation of tne commissioned
officers' club in the Wlllurd
hotel building results largely
from a manpower and manage
ment problem, i no lodge wns
unable to find personnel to staff
the club, which was established
moro than a year ago and hns
been heavily used by commis
sioned officers, especially Junior
squadron officers from the air
station.
Closing of the officers' club
brought an oxpresslon of concern
from Commander R. ,R. Darron
of the air statlorj over the need
for a downtown recreation spot
for these voung commissioned of
ficers. He has asked a number
of townspeople to confer with
him Saturday on the possibilities
of establishing such a place,

The resolution cited "gains
made without striking or threat

"Improper and unnecessary."

A security blackout hit most
third army movements. A dis
patch from Gen. Omar N. Brad
ley's 12th army group headquar
ters gave distances, but censors
did not permit towns to be

sumably still were fighting in

tered yesterday. A transoccan

The Canadians menaced Am-

Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The
