President Mrs. L. M. McBride opened the meeting, and the flag salute was lea ay Mrs. Franks first grade. Mrs. Paul Fairclo, membership chairman, reported that to date there are 318 mem bers, and that fourth grade teach er. Mrs. Franks had won the membership prize. Treasurer Mrs. Ruben Peterson explained the items in this year's budget of $583.23, which was adopted with out change. George Elliott, prin cipal of the high school, announced that the carnival would be on No vember 16, and that a three act play would be given' by the high school' drama club in the first week of December. Program chairman Mrs. Jim Grimes then turned the meeting over to Mrs. Violet Koehn, American Cancer Society commander, who intro duced the speakers. Thorne, district scout executive, opened the discussions with infor mation about the Boy Scouts. He raid that though many people be lieve that rural boys are not in terested in scouting, evidence from across the country proves the contrary. He pointed out that Hen loy Troop 11. organized by the Henley Grange in July of 1948, has had a total of 108 boys, while 89 boys have participated in Pack 11 since its organization in March of 1955. He also described the three programs of scouting, which are cub packs for ages 8-10, scout troups for ages 11-14. and explor er posts for those 14 and over. Mrs. Dixon, executive secretary of the Klamath Basin Chapter of the Red Cross, told about the three standing programs of the Red Cross in Klamath County. The first, the blood program, serves to furnish, through volun teer donors, the 100 pints of blood used monthly in the county. Mrs. Dixon stated that the blood used was not charged for by the Red Cross, and that the only charges made were for lab costs, hos pital costs of infusing, and the cost of delivery of the blood from Port land. The second program con sists of educational classes. To name a few, volunteer workers learn how to teach new first aid methods and swimming to handi capped or mentally retarded per sons, and the public is invited to classes such as home nursing. The final and most widely known pro gram of the Red Cross is disaster relief, under which 50 million dol lars are spent yearly, all of which money is raised by donation. Here, close to home, the .Red Cross is helping in the Bly area, furnishing dry blankets, replacing soaked mattresses, and putting emergen cy tar paper on some roofs. The criterion for disaster relief is need, not loss, and an outright grant is made to those in need. Paul Campbell, executive sec retary for the YMCA, began by stating the purpose of the "Y," which is to gather an association of people youths and adults to be concerned about service to others. He stressed the facts that all work is done on a volunteer basis, that the members take the responsi bility, that the "Y" is self-supporting, and most important, that the "Y" serves all people regard-1 less of whether or not they are members. Operating under the as sumption that "good things hap pen to people in groups," the "Y" sponsors a weekly family night, a Labor Day camp for the whole family, women's gym classes, a rifle club, and classes in prepara tion for marriage. Campbell also explained that the "Y" is not a church, although it is based on Christian objectives, and is open to all faiths to be of service in places of need. Mrs. Ronald Whitlatch, district representative of the Girl Scouts, described the new service groups, consisting of a neighborhood chair man, a troop consultant, and a troop organizer, whose function it is to enlist members, find leaders and in general to coordinate troop activities. She also explained that the Girl Scouts only sources of money are the United Fund and the annual cookie sale, all dues being sent to the National organ ization, and that this money is used mainly for camp expenses. or an I I I I!

I V . - " V Rex Dye, executive secretary for United Fund, concluded the talks by briefly describing the remain ing organizations in ur. ine sal vation Army deals mainly with transient people; the National Health Agencies, cancer, mental health, arthritis, rheumatism, and allergic diseases and concentrate on research: the Oregon Chest agencies are concerned with child care, aiding needy and dependent children by furnishing home and medical care, and placing chil dren for adoption. Dye said mat 81 Klamath County children have been taken care of by the Chest Agencies in the past year, and that though the various homes and services are not local, they serve a state-wide need. In summary, the 27 volunteer agencies work to gether for a United Package, and the Central Budgeting Committee assures a fair and equitable dis tribution of all money received Mrs. Koehn brought the pro gram to a close with the presen tation of a film entitled "Man Alive." which illustrated in story form the seven danger signals of cancer. . The next meeting will be on November 6 and will feature Mr. Gene Stiver speaking on "Child Behavior." JOSEPH KITLER Couple Miss Crater View A New Jersey couple, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Kitler. who came to this area or the specific purpose of visiting Crater Lake National Park and viewing the lake, was disappointed last week because their arrival on Thursday coincid ed with the-first snow storm of the season in the park. . "We saw more snow up there on Thursday than we saw all last winter in New Jersey," Kitler said, adding that his home town of High land Park, near New Brunswick, had a maximuiti of two inches of snow on the ground last winter. He is an electrician with the Permecel-Tape Company, a sub sidiary of Johnson and Johnson and this was their first trip to Ore gon. They left home on September 21 and came west by way of Banff and Lake Louise and will return by way of the southern route, ar riving home on October 13. They agreed that Oregon is beau tiful despite the unexpected snow in the Klamath country. "Anyhow," Mrs. Kitler comment ed, "missing a sight of Crater Lake, this year gives us an ex cellent excuse to come back again next year."

Riots Flare In Warsaw WARSAW Wl For the fifth straicht niEht street fiRhting broke out in this Communist capital, but the antigovernment demonstrators had dwindled from a mass student protest to a small crowd sparked by rowdies. About 100 riot nolice charged last night's leering crowd of 1,000 with clubs after a teen-age gang set a wooden flower kiosk afire. Forty persons were reported ar rested in the clash outsme me war saw Palace of Culture. The disorders began Thursday niaht. when police broke up a dem onstration against closure , of the student newspaper Po Prostu for criticizing the Communist govern ment. After another clash Friday night.' organized students took no further part and rowdies moved in. Communist authorities kept up a press campaign demanding sev ere penalties lor aemonsiraiors. Total arrests and casualties have not been announced. A resolution by the University Youth Union called for quiet.
