By JOHN Fl'JH 8NIPER RIDGE, Korea l-The Chinese attacked at sunset, but Uiey found Sniper Ridge nearly as bright as dny. Alt Allied warplnne circled slow ly overhead, dropping flares. Three searchlights played on the charg ing Reds. On both flanks, half-tracks with 50 caliber machine guns spat trac er bullets at the enemy. American mortars and howitzers whistled shells overhead. Only 600 vards In front of us. the Chinese had crept across from towering Papa-san mountain to the north and started up the slopes of Bnlper Ridge. "Maximum fire!" Republic of Korea Regimental.- Commander Col. Yu Kun Chang ordered. The supporting American guns roared at the approaching Chi nese.

An exception appears to be in California where the deer kill for 1953. based on incomplete reports to date, is the second largest on record.

"If Gen.
