This Really Was Bang-Up Primary

FRANKLIN, Ind, May 6 (U. P.).—Franklin’s mayoralty contest had a bang-up sendoff, both literally and figuratively. Two automobiles, with their respective drivers intent on reaching the polls, collided smack in mid-street. From one car stepped irate Mayor L. W. Oliver, out for the G. O. P. renomination. From the other appeared equally irate Mrs. Jessie Furnish, wife of Oliver’s primary opponent, G. W. Furnish.

Erase Fountain

At White House

WASHINGTON, May 6 (U. P.). ~Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt yes= terday disclosed a new addition to the list of war casualties—the east entrance to the White House, as it is known to millions of tourists who have passed through it while sight-seeing the executive mansion. The first lady said that when peace is restored and the White House is reopened to the public, the east entrance will be the spot where tourists will enter and exit, but it will Jook very different from what it did before the war. The reason for the change, she explained, is the new ofiice building wing which is being built where there used to be a long entrance gallery, covered by a flagged, geranium-bordered ‘terrace overlooking the treasury, and a famed fountain filled with. lily pads and goldfish. The gallery, terrace ‘and fountain now exist only in memory, Mrs. Roosevelt sighed. But she was happy to say the architects and builders have thus far spared most of the mansion’s treasured flower gardens.

scrap collection campaign, initiated in Oklahoma by Fred McDuff, Seminole, reclaimer of waste materials, had been “stopped” by the WPB. He said the explanation he received for stopping the campaign was that “giving away scrap iron will cause people to hoard it and cause the. price to go up.” Mr. Boren blamed scrap iron brokers for the action. Lessing J. Rosenwald, chief of the division of industrial conservation in the WPB, and Paul Cabot, deputy, denied an accusation by Senator Josh Lee (D. Okla.) that they were not interested in getting scrap iron. “We're trying to get up as much steam as possible,” Mr. Cabot said. “You arent getting up much steam in my state,” said Mr. Lee.

l S,, FLIERS BACK UP MALTA'S HEROISM

LONDON, May 6 (U. P.)—The defense of Malta, the most-bombed place in the world, is one of the epics of the war and when ‘the full story is told the record that American fliers are making will have a prominent place, a spokesman of the British air ministry said today. “This: small band of Americans joined the war of their own accord, coming from widely divergent points such as California, Idaho, New York and Florida,” he said. “Their contribution to the Malta struggle has not been without loss, There have been casualties in battle, and—

most popular of the American pilots was killed in a hotel by a hom! hid The spokesman cited the attack two American pilots made on two German Messerschmitt fighters as typical of the enthusiasm they have for the dangerous game. “One of these pilots is from Norwich, Conn., and the other from Berkeley, Cel,” He said, “and they

they saw the two Messerschmitts below them. Both swooped to the attack.” Both got their enemies and saw the German planes fall into the sea.

GUNFIRE AT PRACTICE JARS SEISMOGRAPH

PASADENA, May 6. — Sensitive seismograph instruments at the California Institute of Technology here, set up to catch tremors telling of * distant’ great earthquakes, are also recording the lesser earthquakes set up by heavy gunfire during naval target practice, off the nearby coast of California, reports Dr. Beno Gutenberg, who has charge of the institute’s work in geophysics.

It is even possible, by close examination of the quivering lines of the instrument's tracings, to .get some idea of the types of explosion causing thern.

COOL YANK BAGS 20TH JAP IN AIR

Says Plane Exploded at

First Burst of Fire.

KUNMING, China, May 3 (Delayed) (U.: P.).—Squadron Leader “Bob” of Seattle, Wash., ace of the American volunteer group, shot down a Japanese observation bomb-

his total bag of enemy planes to 20. Bob, a six-footer with merry Irish eyes and cool nerves, has brought | down 13 Japanese aircraft in aerial: battle and destroyed seven more on| the ground since he has been fying for the A.V.G. “I was out on a patrol trip with a few of the boys when I sighted | the observation bomber,” he said’

“I made a dash for him and caught him. He exploded at my first burst of fire.”

‘Don’t Worry About Me’

Bob has had some close calls. Once the tires were shot off his

Mas-| plane during a battle. Three times

he returned from dogfights with more than a dozen bullet holes in

> his aircraft.

Every time he takes off, his friends say: “Take care of yourself,” and his invariable answer is: “Don’t| worry about me—worry about the | poor Japs.” Bob seems to be nerveless when he pilots a plane or drives a car. He tries to give the impression that he regards dogfighting as an amusing game. Has Six Senses in Alr But one of his superior officers told me: “When Bob is in the air, he has more than six senses.

Now it can be revesiod in pictures that in the navy’s attack on the Japanese bases im the Marshall islands, the suicidal at-

tempt of the Japanese bomber to’

crash amidst the planes on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier failed. However, some damage resulted. This Douglas dive bomber had it’s tail assembly sheared off.

Middle Name Gets Him Votes

WARSAW, Ind, May 6 (U. P.). — Kosciusko county Democrats voted for a Democratic second district congressional candidate

by the name of Pendleton, but a search of the official records revealed that Pendleton just wasn’t there. Then election officials -discovered that the official ballots had carried only the first and middle name of one candidate—Eugene P. Nafe of Rochester, whose middle name happened to be Pendleton. The printing error apparently made no difference to the voters. “Pendleton” collected a goodly share of the ballots. :
