Rule Effective April 1
A considerable portion of the
column, “Greg’s Gossip,” in the
Sunday Oregonian was devoted to a
letter received from North Africa
from
Captain
Red
MacDonald,
former high school teacher here.
He merited the column because of
his current interest in sports, his
football and basketball record at
OSC, and his basketball coaching
here.
Part of that letter is worth re­
quoting here:
“Have seen a lot since I left the
best state in the Union, and I don’t
mean maybe. If you think we used
to treat them rough on the basket­
ball court, you should spend a week­
end here with me; you would write
a book on what you saw—if you
got home again to write it!
“I have Walt Parcells with me
here, and he is not to be claimed
by any other place than Vernonia*
We had him in Vernonia high for
four years. Walt has done one swell
job for us and has been a hero
in more ways than one. My hat is
off to him and Vernonia can be
proud of him always. Also, he
didn’t die to do it, but is stjll very
alive. We need more like him.”
After April 1 men with depend­
ents who are in non-deferrable oc­
cupations will be given 30 days
to transfer to essential occupations,
or to have registered with the
United States employment service
for such transfer, before being
placed in class 1-A, under the non-
deferrable order as issued Feb­
ruary 3.
In recla.-sifying men with depend­
ents into 1-A the boards follow this
procedure:

Because of varying conditions in
local board areas, as well as in dif­

been necessary to call registrants
with dependents in some states,
while single men still were avail­
able in others, and in local board
rreas in some states before all
other local boards in the same
state had exhausted their pools of
single men.'
“The recent non-deferrable or­

cated which men with families will

Wooing in Plot of
Jr. Play Friday
A very entertaining play, “The
Whole Town’s Talking,” will be
presented at the Washington grade
school auditorium this Friday night,
March 12 by the junior class of the
high school. Miss Esther Willers
is the director and the curtain will
go up at 8:00 o'clock. Music before
the play begins will he under the
direction of Miss Marie DeBolt. Be­
tween acts Mrs. Irwin Ruh’s har­
monica tand will t>lay.
Leadin' parts in this three-act
farce are played by Fred Busch,
Beverly Bassett, and Marvin Turn­
er, Max Millis, Betty Lou Gouge,
Larry Brady, Mary Hall have im­
portant parts while Gloria Lamping,
Phyllis New. Carolyn Romtvedt, and
Lyle Galloway are supporting play­
ers. Fred plays a shy young man
who attempts to marry his partner's
(Marvin Turner) daughter, who is
played by Beverly Bassett.
Following the play, the senior
class will have a dance at the high
school gym.
Junior DeHart was put into the
coast artillery of the army when
he was inducted into the service
several weeks ago, and is stationed
at Shelby, Mississippi. He is a mem­
ber of an anti-aircraft, motor unit.
Junior had aspired to be a para­
trooper, but was too tall.
•
Darryl LaBeck, chief petty of­
ficer in the U. S. navy, has been
home on a 10-day leave. He and his
wife, the former Lillian Hansen of
Astoria, have been visiting Mr. La-
Beck’s mother and father, the A.
J. La Becks of Svensen, and spent
the week-end with his two brothers,
Aldan and Forrest La Beck of Mist.
A farewell party was given at the
Aldan La Beck home
Saturday
night in his honor, and friends and
neighbors were present to bid him
goodbye and wish him luck. He left
Monday for his destination, a mili­
tary secret. He has been in the ser­
vice 12 years or more.
Word from Elmer Michener from
New Guinea is that it is "paradise”
there and that he is in better
health than ever before. The colors
of the jungles are beautiful, he
says, and a coconut can be barter­
ed for one cigarette. Maybe Elmer
had read too much about Tarzan
when he was in the United States,
for he wrote that at last he has
the thrill of swinging through the
jungle on vines.
MIST—Another
neighbor
has
three sons in the service of their
country. Harry M. Reynold's three
sons are doing their bit for Uncle
Sam. Wayne is in the islands; Ar­
mour is in Tampa, Florida, and
Roy is in Virginia. Wayne and Ar­
mour left in early spring of last
year and Roy left later.
They worked in logging in and
around the valley. Mr. and Mrs.
Reynolds have a home across the
Nehalem bridge on the Wallace
road.
John Gritdahl has been released

ging industry and went to work
IF YOU HOLD AN “A” CARD
Honor Students
After gathering together each
“Those Who Are in It” column
Listed for Period
since it started last September
(Bonnie McNutt wanted it for her
scrap book) it is found to have
occupied a little over 44 feet of
columns. News from the Eagle’s
correspondents, its readers, and
from many of the over 300 Vernon­
ia and vicinity service men them­
selves have helped to make the
column this long. But the longer
the better! Everyone likes to hear
about those fighting fellcws, and
what they’re doing deserves lots
of space.
Mr. and Mrs. H. H. King have
received letters from their son,
George, and the president of the
rehabilitation department of the
American
Legion
Auxiliary
in
Hawaii telling of her visit at the
hospital where he is still confined
(as of February 18). He has been
sent magazines and fruit by the
department and is getting along
nicely.
Sophomores lead the honor roll
at the high school for the first
six weeks period in the second se­
mester with nine members of that
class listed of the total of 17 honor
students.
Seniors on the roll were: Margaret
Anderson, Joy Willard, M:ry Ko­
vach and Robert Kent: juniors—El­
eanor Corll, Lorraine Mahar, and
Irene Driscoll;« freshmen—Patricia
Berg.
The top-ranking sophomores are
proud of the following members:
Delores Bergstrom, Phyllis Bonsi-
law, Max Millis, Shirley Ray, Mary
Beth Lish, Annie Kovach,
Glen
Justice, Tommie Lou Holcomb, and
Marietta Hodgson. .
Cetx Teaching Position—
To Loavo Hospital—
Miss Erma Kent will start next
Monday as kindergarten teacher at
Pendleton. She has just finished the
term at the Oregon College of Edu­
cation at Monmouth which entitles
her to a teaching certificate. She
plans to get her degree by attend­
ing summer sessions.
Miss Kent’s parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Walter Kent, took her to Port­
land Tuesday morning so she could
leave by train from there. They
then visited Mrs. Kent’s mother
near Multnomah. Miss Kent had
been here from school since Satur­
day.
Mrs. Percy Hewes’ condition is
much improved and she is scheduled
to leave the hospital next Sunday.

Coffee-Wise
In coffee, it’s quality rather than
quantity that counts. That’s why
the coffee-wise are making that one
cup of coffee per day offer the very
best there is in coffee ... flavor, aro­
ma, inspiration and sheer taste joy.
BUYING COFFEE— Be sure to get
the right grind for your coffee maker
, . . Regular Grind for percolator
or for boiling . . . Drip Grind for
drip and vacuum makers.
ACCURATELY both
the coffee and water, and use stand­
ard measures for uniform results.
We recommend 1)1 to i level table­
spoons of coffee for each standard
measuring cup of water. (A stand­
ard measuring cup equals from 1 bj
to lJi dinner cups.) For best re­
sults. make pot at least two-thirds
full. A elean pot pays dividends in
flavor.
MEASURE
Percolator Coffee — Use either
hot or cold water. Start tuning
when the “perking” begins and
“perk" slowly for 7 to 10 minutes.
Boiled Coffee— Add coffee to
cold water in pot or sauce pan. Let
it come to a rolling boil, remove
from heat and allow a few minutes
for the grounds to settle. Strain and
serve.
,
Drip Coffee— Preheat pot. Pour
Iroiling water into top compart­
ment. ami allow to drip slowly. The
dripping time should take from 6
to 8 minutes to obtain the peak of
flavor and aroma.
Vacuum Coffee Have water in
lower bowl boiling Ixforc fitting
upper bowl in place. Begin timing
when the water rises ami comes in
contact with the coffee. Control the
heat so that the coffee anil water
are infused together from 5 to 7
minutes.
