Planet Display May Nomv Be Seen in Tivilialit Shy By J. HUGH PRUETT Astronomer. Extension Division, Oregon Higher Educational System The twilight skies of April arc aglow with bright planets. Of the five that are conspicuous objects when in observable loca tions, all but one now dot the zodiacal band of early evening. Mercury alone is missing from this celestial array. After an absence of nearly a year, Venus lias recently re turned to the evening sky. Many will remember the splendor of this bright planet during the Christmas season of 1!H4, when its brilliance seemed to vie with the combined light of all others of the starry hosts. In the deep ening twilight, this radiant ob ject may now again be seen well up in the west. As spring advances, Venus will become brighter, appear Last Times Continuous 12:30 p. m. ADVENTUR. BOUND!

A sep arate decision upheld an 18 month sentence for a member of the Friends of Reconciliation. The court sent the cases back to district courts in Pocatello, Idaho, and Portland, Ore., cit ing supreme court rulings that juries in such cases should be permitted to consider the claims of the draftees to be classified as ministers rather than conscientious objectors. Two of the religious sect members, Wesley W. Cox, Ash land, Ore., and Theodore R. Thompson, Medford, Ore., were sentenced to three years and three months in prison and fined $300 each by Judge Chase A. Clark at Pocatello in October, 1944, Both men had reported for the draft and checked In at a civilian public service camp for objectors at Downey, Idaho, but then de parted without leave. The third man. Wilbur Hoi- sum, Vancouver, Wash., fol lowed tne same course from a camp at Lapine, Ore. He was given a two-year sentence by Judge Claude McCullough at Portland. Japanese Vandals Steal Food Rat-ions TOKYO, April 6 (IP) The fifth air force announced today that Japanese vandals caused "minor damage" when; they raided several airplanes at Chofu army air base near Tokyo and stole emergency food rations. The thieves cut power and telephone lines, presumably to prevent detection in their Thurs day night spree. Then they broke into some airplanes and escaped with the food after damaging the equipment in which the ra tions were packed. LiDimr in the twilieht sky and farther toward the north. Late in Mnv, it will set well toward the northwest. By early Aug ust it will again be setting al most due west; and in Novem ber, just before finally leaving the evening sky for another ab sence of many months, will ap pear in the southwest. Jupitor Rising Jupiter, the largest of nil the planets, is now rising slightly south of east shortly after sun set. The brilliance of this world surpasses that of any other star like object in the sky with the exception of Venus. Jupiter's lack of twinkling when near the horizon shows definitely that it is not a true star. Mars and Saturn, still near each other, are now very high iu the evening sky somewhat south of the zenith. As during the past several months, they arc still tracing various figures with the nearby bright stars, Castor and Pollux. During this coming week, these four will form a varicolored, but somewhat awk ward, letter L. Yellow-white Castor, the dimmest of the four, will be at the top of the L; orange Pollux, somewhat bright er, lower down; and red Mars, still brighter, at the bend of the letter. At the right tip of the L. yellow Saturn, the most lumi nous of all, will complete the figure. It will be most interesting to watch the movement of Mars from night to night. Within two weeks our letter L will be con siderably deformed; a few weeks later, completely indistinguish able. Castor and Pollux are very distant suns of extremely high temperature; not planets, relatively nearby and cool. The apparent luminosities oi the planets under discussion give us no certain data regarding their comparative sizes, une brilliancies as we see them de pend upon several factors: actual size, distance from both the sun and earth, surface reflection, etc. In equatorial diameter they may be arranged as follows: Mars, 4200 miles; Venus, 7600 miles; Saturn, 75,000 miles, and Jupiter, 89,000 miles. In dis tance outward from the sun, the naked-eye planets are in this order: Mercury, Venus, (earth). Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Plans To Improve Fairgrounds Talked Ideas for improving fairground facilities came under lively dis cussion last night at a meeting attended by representatives of rodeos, the Klamath Sheriff's Posse, riding clubs and members of the fair board. It was apparent that some dickering will be necessary to consider all groups in planning any extension of present facili ties. All agreed, however, that a larger covered pavilion would be a commendable improvement for holding inside stock shows and exhibits and for winter horseback riding. The ideas discussed will be -referred to the original, com mittee for fairground improve ment, representing the Cal-Ore Hereford association, agricul tural interests and 4-H club, in terested in improving show facilities.

Ranks Of Idle Mount Higher By Th Associated Pun The ranks of the idle because of labor disputes moved toward the 800,000 mark today as cur rent work stoppages forced thou sands of workers to leave their 1 Jobs and now strikes threatened.

About 787,000 remained Idle throughout the country because of lubor disputes.

S. Steel cor poration subsidiaries and more than 4000 on coal-carrying rail roads. In Detroit, where a transporta tion strike continued for the sixth day, approximately 51,000 auto plant workers in tho motor city area wcro idle because of work stoppages and parts and materials shortages.
