Big Prep Feature Friday
Night At Hoquiam
Tickets are now on sale in Shel-
ton for the second annual Grays
Harbor high school football jam-
boree in which the Shelton High-
climbers will be one of six par-
ticipants next Friday night at the
Olympic Stadium in Hoquiam.
All members of the Shelton Ki-
wanis Club have pasteboai‘ds for
the big prep feature, which will
serve to "kickoff" the 1941 high
school football season in these
parts. The jamboree starts
promptly at 7:45 o’clock.
The six participating sehools
include Aberdeen, Hoquiam. Elma,
Montesano and Raymond in addi-
tion to Shelton. Each team will
'play two rivals during the pro-
each for one 12—minute
quarter. Opponents will not be
known until immediately before
the starting time, when a draw
will be held to determine the
pairings for the six “games” on
the program.
Shelton Band In Spotlight
Immediately after the drawing
the bands of the six participating
schools will be presented. Shel-
ton’s crack band,“ under the direc—
tion of Ben Hallgrimson, will be
the only band of the six which
will play while marching.
All local fans who plan to take
in the jamboree are urged to pur-
chase their tickets from a Ki—
wanian or at Irene S. Reed high
school before Thursday night as
all money from tickets sold here
will remain right here and be
placed in the Kiwanis Club un-
derprivileged children‘s fund. The
local sale closes Thursday night
and no further purchases of tick-
ets then will be possible until one
arrives at the gate at the stadium
in Hoquiam.
All funds from ticket sales at
the gate will be divided among the
six participating schools, after
expenses have been deducted. Thus
Sheltonians who wait to buy their
tickets at the gate will be re-
turning less than one-sixth of the
money they spend on tickets to
local funds, hence the request of
the Kiwanis club to buy tickets
here by Thursday night.
The jamboree is being sponsor-
ed in the six towns whose teams
are participating by the Kiwanis
club, except in the case of Mon-l
tesano, where the American Le-
gion is the sponsor.
No Lost Time
This year’s jamboree will be run
off in much faster order than
last years, reports Homer Taylor.

deen last Wednesday night to a!"

This year all time outs have
been removed from the plan 0f

for 12 minutes actual time as the
clock will not be stopped for
penalties, incompleted passes 01‘
other ordinary time-outs.
As there will be six quarters-
the jamboree will represent
minutes of playing time, plus a
little-extra to allow the teams to
take the field. However, the
teams will be “warmed up” be'
fore they go on the field, so .110
time will be lost for that detail-
There will be no reserved seats.

John Vincent, Ernie Cole Connect
Off Bald Point Sunday To
Start Ball Rolling;
Rain Should Help
Meet the boyS—Elo finally got
the 1941 Shelton silver salmon
derby rolling, neighbors.
They're John Vincent and Ernie
Cole, both employes at Rayonicr’s
big pulp producing plant.
Fishing together last Sunday“
they hoisted a couple of silver
salmon out of Hood Canal off
Bald Point and entered them in
the derby, thereby becoming the
. first to place fish on the qualify-1
ing board.
Vincent had a nine pound, seven
ounce entry, Cole an eight pound,
five ouncer. They also caught
three king salmon and four black-
mouths Sunday for quite a suc-
cessful angling jaunt.
But friends, Vincent and Cole
are both kicking themselves mild—
ly for a couple of weeks ago they
caught bigger silvers than those
they entered Sunday but they
hadn‘t purchased their entry tick-
ets in the derby before going out,
so weren't eligible to weigh in
those previous catches.
Incidentally, Vincent and Cole
weighed in their fish at Jim
Roush’s Hillcrest Hardware, which
also had the first entries in last
year’s derby.
The derby officially opened Aug-
ust 24, three weeks ago Sunday,
but there haven’t been any sil—
vers in the bay to speak of yet
and the boys who have b e e n try-
ing the canal either haven’t had
much luck or have r\feglected to
enter themselves be ore going
fishing—Which has been the case
in too many instances.
However, the recent rain is ex-
pected to bring the silvers into
the bay in goodly numbers and
fishing should perk up consider-
ably pretty quick, so watch for
more entries on the derby qual—
ifying board in the next few days.

SHELTONIAN GOLF CHAMPION
Hal Grant, right above, Shelton lumber company manager,
defeated one of the best young golfers in the Northwest in Bud
Haskell of Olympia to win the Olympia Country and Golf Club
president’s cup last Saturday afternoon. With the aid of a six-
stroke handicap, the Shelton linksman won the match, and 2,
by carding a net 77 to his rival’s 78. Grant shot a 38 on the first
round and 39 on the second while Haskell hit 39 on both rounds.
The winner took the lead on the flrst hole when he turned up a
birdie. The match was a replay of their original

Announcement has been made
from Seattle that air maneuvers
are contemplated for the North-
west and it is expected that the
Shelton airport will see some ac-
tion.
Nothing definite has been an-
nounced so far, although thereI
are plenty of rumors.
No air maneuvers on a large
scale have been held in the North-
west and if they are put on ac-
cording to the tentative schedule
announced from Seattle there is
little question but that the local
airport will be included in the
program in some way.
The Shelton airport has been
taken over by the Navy so it is
logical to expect it will be in-
cluded in the program fol' the
contemplated maneuvers.

PREP GRID SQUAD SMALL IN
NUMBERS, LARGE PHYSICALLY.
Working with a squad that is.termen are back in suit out of
horribly shy numerically yet hef-
ty enough physically, Coach Walt
Hakola and Assistant Coach Hugh
Clark are trying to whip the
Highclimber football squad into
some semblance of a team unit in
preparation for the prep gridiron
jamboree at Hoquiam this Friday
night.
Only 27 lads have drawn equip-
ment to date, one of the smallest
turnouts in the history of the
school in recent years, yet among
those 27 are over a. dozen lads
physically built for the game.
Whether they have the other
attributes is something that only
the test of competition and scrim-
mage will reveal, but at least
their presence among the as-
pirants helps to brighten an out-
look which otherWise had a very
black shade to it.
If Hakola and Clark had half
the ineligibles who are back in
School this Year on the squad
they’d be able to turn out a fair-
ly strong Outfit, while a couple
of others Who are eligible have
decided t0 forego the grid sport
this yea!" and Save their energies
for others they like better.

LIBRARY MUSIC
DEPARTMENT
FACILITIES REVIEWED TODAY
By MRS. LAURA K. PLUMB
Shelton City Librarian
' The keen interest which is be—
ing shown in the Music Depart—
ment of the Library, which is in
charge of Mrs. Charles R. Lewis,
shows how very much this serv—
ice is appreciated. The stock
COVGPS. In as much as the budget
permits, the needs of the many
musxc lovers in our community.
There are numbers for the piano,
stringed instruments, and wind
instruments. The vocal music in—
cludes popular and sacred songS,
semi~classical and classical num-
bers. The instrumental music has
this same range. The selection
lists several pieces for children.
Books chosen at random illus-
trate how wide a field has been
covered in so limited 3. number
of books. For example, “The
other Americas" by Cugat is an
album 0f typical Central and
South American songs and dances.
A Treasure Chest of Famous
Melodies’ arranged by Carter in-
cludes folk song, operatic airs,
and Masterworks. f‘Memories of
Stephen Foster” is an album of
songs by America's most beloved
CQmPgser. And "Songs Everybody
smgs, by Carrie Jacobs-Bond
coma-111.8 melodies which revive
memories for young and old.
The compositions of Beethoven,
lChOPin. Bach, Mozart, Schuman.
and other immortals have been
stocked. The Strauss Vocal A1-
bum and the _MacDowell Wood-
land Sketches are here, also. There
are still some choral and orches-
ltral numbers to come.
The music has all been cata-
logued for the music lover's use
just as the .books are for the
reading public. The compositions
may be checked out for fourteen
days with the privilege of two
,renewais which will make them
available for a six week’s period.
This should meet the needs of the
Church choir, the chorus, and the
orchestra, any of the groups and
of the individuals whom the Mu-
sic Department wishes to serve.
For years the Library has stock-
ed among its magazines for cir-
culation, “The Etude Music Mag-
azine," The general reader should
check out some of these. He
would soon see how thoroughly
music threads all life. The music
lover has known this simple truth
always. That is why he recog-
nizes the Importance of music.
The September number of The
Etude contains an article, “Will
Beethoven Stop Hitler,” in which
the connection between the pres-
ent “V’ Campaign in Europe with
Beethovens “F‘lfth Symphony” is
explamed- Thus music influences
not the few but all. This is only
one 9f Etude’s many fine articles
iegowmg music's relationship to
i e.
ten who completed the 1940 sea-
son with further prep competi-
tion ahead of them if they wished
to participate in it.
These half dozen are Bob Puhn,
hard-hitting fullback; Louie Wool-
sey, rusty-haired, chucky and
mercury-heeled halfback or quar-
ter; Earl Lumsden and Ted Van-
Overbeke. a pair of rangy, well—
built ends who will leave their
coaches no worries over .the
flanks; Donn Nelson, giant tackle
who has looked exceptionally good
in workouts so far; and Johnny
Eager, red-haired guard who is
bigger and better considerably
than last year.
All of these lettermen except
Woolsey are big and have suffi—
cient speed to be good varsity
competitors, while Woolsey has
speed to spare and is strong, tough
and well set up even though he
falls into the smaller physical
classification.

on Sunday morning.
But it wasn‘t the milkman who

merely following out the n ew

Maurice Needham, Mel Bearden
Named Organizers Here;
Organization Carried
On By American
Legion
Maurice Needham of Shelton
jand Mel Beardeli of Hill Creek,
1 near Potlatch, have been appoint-
}ed organizers of Aircraft Warn-
ing Service observation posts
‘throughout Mason County by
V 1 Richard E. Carlgrcn, regional sig-
nal officer of the Second Inter-
ceptor Command in Seattle, it
'was learned here yesterday.
Mr. Needham will be in charge
of organizing civilian observation
.posts in the southern end of the
county and Mr. Bearden in the
lHood Canal area.
Volunteers, both men and wo-
men preferably above draft age,
are sought from whom crews to
operate each separate civilian ob-
| servation post can be formed. Be—
Icause these observation posts are
to participate in the aerial man-
'euvers planned about October 1
by the Army, Navy and Marines
in the Northwest, it is desired to
have all observation posts in the
Aircraft Warning Service organ—
ized and prepared to act by Sept-
ember 20.
Volunteers Asked To Register
Names of persons wishing to
volunteer for this patriotic de-
fense duty should be turned into
Mr. Needham and Mr. Bearden.
Observation posts have tenta-
tively been scheduled to be set
up at Shelton, Kamilche, Har-
stine Island, Oakland Bay, Ar-
cadia, Dayton, Matlock, Cloqual-
lum and Grove (on the Matlock-
Grays Harbor road) in Mr. Need-
ham’s, territory, but as yet The
Journal has not received any in-
formation on where the posts are
to be set up in Mr. Bearden’s ter-
ritory.
Any residents of these vicini-
ties desiring to volunteer their
services for this purpose should
register with their organizer.
Object To Detect Enemy
The object of the Aircraft
Warning Service is to reportthe
presence of airplanes in case of
invasion by an enemy military
,force. It is being org’anized'by
the War Department as a sys-
tem for detecting and reporting
enemy air raids to enable Ameri-
can fighting planes, under the
Interceptor Commands, to locate
and attack hostile raiders and to
enlable the military authorities
to warn communities in the path
of invading bombers to activate
their Air Raid Precautions sys-
tems, according to the informa-
tion sent Mr. Needham.
Briefly, the Aircraft Warning
Service is composed of a civilian
observation post for each 32
square miles of land area, man-
ned by one chief observer, an as-
sistant chief observer, second as,-
sistant chief observer, and 16
observers.
Phone Firms Cooperate
Two men must be on duty at
all times during maneuvers and
periods of national emergencies.
within 15 seconds of a telephone.
When an observer on duty bears
or sees an enemy plane he im-
mediately goes to the telephone,
establishes contact with a filter
center (for this area this would
be Fort Worden) through ar-
rangements which have already
been completed with the telephone
companies and reports the height.
speed, direction and composition
of the enemy raid.
Those are the essential details
of the duties of persons who
volunteer for the Aircraft Warn-
ing Service. The qualifications
are mainly a desire to assist in
this work and the ability to speak
English clearly and distinctly so
their “flash messages” can . be
easily understood.
SO ARRIVES FRIDAY
Mr. and Mrs. Pierre Cenotto of
Shelton became parents of a baby
son born Friday at Shelton Hos-
pital.

Buster Named
U n of f i c i a 1
Mail Carrier
Ben James, Shelton mail car-
rier, knows well the old adage,
“A man’s best friend is his
dog,” for he has a faithful com-
panion in Buster, a. browu
shepherd dog who never misses
a day of carrying Uncle Sam’s
mail.
One of the strange things
about this unofficial partner-
ship is the fact that Buster is
not James' dog, but belongs to
Earl Moore. However, every
morning when James comes out
of the postoffice to begin his
route, there is Buster waiting
for him.
The dog accompanies him all
around his route, and then when
the route is over he trots off
home. Buster won’t permit
himself to be quoted as to the
reasons he likes to travel with
the postman, but James isn’t
complaining about his good coni-
panion.

EMPLOYMENT ACT
203 Employers In This Area Have
Already Done So; Due
October End
“Mason County employers who
have not yet registered with the
state Unemployment Compensa-
tion Division in compliance with
~the Unemployment Compensation
l
Act should do so immediately,"
Allan Drummond of the Unem-
ployment Compensation Division,
told the Mason County Journal
today.
“Approximately 203 employers
in this are! have already 21-515“
tered,” Mr. Drummond said.
“Within the next two weeks, these
employers will receive a record
of their account number and a
coverage certificate indicating
that their employees are covered.
“The first reports which the
employers who came under the
act starting July 1, 1941, will be
required to file will be for the
third calendar quarter of this
year—July, August and Septem-
ber. However, these reports will
not be due until the end of Oct-
ober,” Mr. Drummond said.
The last session of the s t a t e '
legislature extended the coverage
of the Unemployment Compensa-
tion Act from employers of eight
or more to employers of one or
more, and defined an employer
generally as anyone who employ-
ed another person, with certain

Employers who have not regis-

Saturday is doggone close at hand,

Huston will see that it is picked
up if he is notified of that fact.

LAil CRUSHED
IN .llllClllNERY ~
8—Year-Old Third Grade Pupil Is
Caught In Sawdust Con-
veyor Belt Shaft Last
Thursday
School opened at Hoodsport last
week on a tragical note ,when
Lemuel John Roe, 8, third grade
pupil, was crushed to death when
his clothing caught in the drive-
shaft of the sawdust conveyor
belt at the Hoodsport Lumber
Company while the lad was play-
ing with a little chum after school
let out last Thursday afternoon.
School was dismissed yesterday
afternoon by Principal John W.
Goodpaster to allow schoolmates
of the little victim to attend his
funeral, held from Witsiers Fu-
neral Home with Rev. J. O. Bovee,
Baptist pastor, conducting. Bur-
ial was in Shelton Memorial Park.
Lemuel is survived by his par-
ents, Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Roe, the
’father being employed by the
State Highway Department. a sis-
ter, Shirley, at Hoodsport; his
maternal grandparents, Mr. and
Mrs. John LeClair, his grandfa-
ther, Arthur Roe, and his great
grandfather, Henry Allen, all of
Potlatch.
The tragedy occurred late Thurs-
day afternoon after school had
been dismissed and the lad and
his little chum were playing be-
neath the Hoodsport Lumber com-
pany building. It is believed Lem-
uel’s clothing was caught in a
bolt on the sawdust conveyor
driveshaft and he was pulled into
the moving machinery and crush-
ed. Just how long the little vic-
tim's body was in the machinery
before the tragedy was discovered
is not known but the body was
badly crushed.

Preliminary 1942
Budget On Friday
Outside of setting September
12, next Friday, as date for the
preliminary budget hearing at a
special council session, committee
reports were the only matters of
importance taken up at last
Thursday‘s city council session.
The sidewalk committee report-
ed the need for repairing certain
sidewalks already ordered repair-
ed and also recommended install~
ation of sidewalks in the vicinity
of the new gymnasium.
,The street committee reported
it did not find anything it could
do to repair the dikes back of
Clint Haupt’s residence and the
matter was referred to Mayor
Stevenson.
The park committee reported
that the Army's use of Kneeland
Park did not injure the city
property there in any way. The
street committee recommended the
opening of an alley between
Franklin and Cedar streets from
7th to 8th streets and a motion
was carried accepting the recom-
mendation.
The matter of additional com-
pensation for city policemen dur-
ing the period since they have
been working Shorthanded was
referred to the law and ordinance
committee. City Police Andy
Hansen and Patrolman Roy Roes-
sel have worked with only one
day off since the resignation of
former chief Ray Starwich last
