FT. WAYNE, Ind. June 27.—Two elderly men from opposite sides of the city will meet at the old artesian well in the Court House yard here July 4 'to exchange handclasps. The meeting was planned 50 years ago by five employees of the old A. C. Baker Cigar Co. On July 4, 1890, the quintet lounged on the grass around the Court House. They pledged to perpetuate their friendship every 10 years “until death do us part.” Charles: McClure was absent at the first reunion in 1900. In 1910, enewed its pledge and placed a wreath on Mr. McClure’s grave. This year, the ranks of the club have been cut in half. Ulrick C. Burlage died in 1933 and Bernard Mettler in 1937. On July 4, L. A. Baker and Jacob Maisch will meet near the Court House cornerstone in which is a box of cigars made by Mr. Baker and Mr. Mettler.

NEW. YORK, June 27 (U .P.).— One of Doris Miller's first tasks today was to buy herself a pair of shoes. The only ones she had when she arrived from France aboard Pan American Airways’ Yankee Clipper had holes in. the soles—evidence of a wild flight from Paris before the advancing Germans. \ Miss Miller is a stylist. She arrived with her husband, Allen Updegraff, a writer; Dr. Jules Boruchwitz, Antwerp physician, and his wife and two daughters, Leon: Cotnareano, e ditor of the Paris newspaper Le Figaro, with his wife and two sons, and 16 other war refugees. : Mr. Updegraff and Miss Miller left Paris June 16 to go to Villiers, where they persuaded Miss Miller's aunt to flee to a safer place. While returning = to Paris, they decided to board a troop - train which was going to Tours. The train

was attacked several times by Ger-

man airplanes and all aboard ran to cover each time the planes approached. Miss Miller said the French soldiers appeared unconcerned and fished in the Loire with hooks made from pins. Her husband said that on one occasion anti-aircraft guns on the train shot down two German planes. “It was a very pretty thing to see,” he said. Miss Miller said: “We would go along for 10 minutes and then stop and everybody would scramble out. For the next 50 minutes we would have to wait. “As soon as the whistles blew for us to pile out, the soldiers in the train ducked down and started fishing in the Loire while the bombeis roared overhead and anti-aircraft guns fired back. The soldiers were

reluctant to board the train again

and leave while there was a chance off getting fresh fish. The food supply was running very low.”
