The Germans entered the Stanley jewelry store and again tried to pawn the watch. Clerks stalled for time while the police were called and the men were arrested. Konrad and Meuche eaid they escaped from Camp Wainwright No. 135 at Alberta, Ont., but refused to tell officers how they had obtained the civilian clothing, the draft cards and the maps or how they reached Gary. Konrad told police that he was the pilot of a Heinkel bomber that was shot down over Birmingham, England, in 194 if Meuche said that he had been captured by the British at Halfaya (Hell Fire) pass in North Africa.

ALLIEDARMIES (Continued From Page One) seaport at almost point blank range. Nazi U-boats trapped in the port were reported trading gunfire with the British across the river. More than 30 miles to the west, the British guards armored division broke loose with a 20-mile drive squarely through the German center, severing the last direct road and rail connections between Hamburg and Bremen. o B-29s BLAST (Continued From Page One) American losses constituted the “complete list of ships sunk by enemy actiop” in the month-long period — thus giving the lie to Japanese claims that upwards of 100 American vessels had been sunk. 0 —; British Mining Evidences of the use of coal in Britain have been found in cinder remains of ancient campsites which antedate the Roman invasion of 54 B. C. It is not until 1180 A. D., however, that records of actual coa] mining operations are found.

Lichens Check Bacteria Power to cheek the growth of bacteria similar to that of penicillin has been found in a hitherto untested group of plants, the lichens. Samples of 42 lichen species were ground up and extracts made with water and other solvents. Tested against several different bacterial types, 27 of these species checked bacterial growth. f’-ndy Warmup Cinnamon toast is a dandy warmup when you have a crowd in after the skate. Toast bread. Spread with fat. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar (four tablespoons sugar to one tablespoon cinnamon) — why not keep it in its own special shaker? Put it in the broiler or oven to melt. o ' vt’c. Streets Pavements that send back to the irlver more rays from the headlights of an automobile promote mght - driving safety, says Dr. Eugene C. Bingham of Lafayette college. Ordinary pavement ahead of the driver is a poor reflector. Its comparatively smooth surface reflects the light onwatd to dazzle approaching cars. Dr. Bingham proposed a surface made up of a series of bricks laid on a level, solid foundation, each brick tilted up at an angle of one-half a degree, with the exposed edge bright in color, hardened and enameled. The light grazes the sloping surface and is reflected back from the protruding edges. Result: The driver sees a large area of pavement

Yellow Jackets Lose To Wren Team Friday The Decatur Yellow Jackets dropped a tough 1 *to 0 decision to the Wren team Friday afternoon at Wren. Both tea me played errorless ball, with Wren olbtaining four hits and Decatur three. The winners scored in the fourth ’nning on a ibase on Iballts, stolen base and a single. Decatur could not bit in the pinches, loading the has.e once and advancing three men to third but lacked the timely blow to score. Gaunt hurled for Decatur and MdClure for Wren. o Reflection Values The light reflection vtjjue* of painted surfaces vary from approximately 2 per cent for black to well over 80 per cent for white. A room with a ceiling painted in' medium gray requires approximately twice as much light to provide the same amount of illumination as one painted white or ivory. 0 Preserve Nutrients Heat, water and air will take their toll of various nutrients in food which is not carefully stored, prepared and cooked. It is important to prepare food so that it will reach the table with maximum amounts of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. Q Flushing Animals Flushing ewes and sows before breeding helps produce larger and stronger lambs and larger litters of pigs. Flushing consists of feeding animals for two or three weeks before breeding in such a manner that they are in a healthy, thrifty condition and are gaining weight at time of breeding. o Glazed Almonds Glazed almonds are sweets easily made at home. Combine one cup blanched almonds wjth one-half cup sugar and heat in a heavy skillet until sugar is thoroughly caramelized. Remove from heat and separate almonds to make individual pieces. You’ll want to make more o Niagara's Future At its present rate of change, Niagara falls will live another 5,000 years; but it will slowly decline in grandeur. It will drop in height from its present 160 feet to a final 100 feet, and then, no longer rolling sheer over a cliff, it will become a boiling rapids.

Father of Navy John Barry, "Father of the American navy,” began his sea career at the age of 11. He commanded the "Lexington” and was so successful in destroying enemy shipping that he was offered 20,000 pounds and a command to desert the Colonies. He refused. In 1777, he was appointed delegate to the Philadelphia convention to review the articles of Confederation. 0 Floor Marks Some of the new rubber heels and soles leave ugly black marks on waxed floors and linoleums. To remove these marks rub them with a cloth moistened with turpentine or a cleaning fluid such as carbon tetrachloride. This removes any wax along with the marks, so wax again. o — Trade in a Good Town — Decatur

Tin mining has made Bolivia wellknown. In the Amazonian lowlands, officials see promises for agriculture and new industries. The capital is La Paz, highest capital city in the world. o Save Cords To save electric cords and plugs, turn the switch to “off” before connecting or disconnecting, grasp the plug, not the cord, to pull. Put cords away free from kinks or knots Best idea is to hang them over two or more metal hooks.
