REGPENED FOR
PUBLI_(_3_.ACCESS
The Journal went to
press yesterday, state and fed-
eral forestry officials slm'lil-
tansously declared the fire
hazard has ceased to exist
and all areas heretofore clos-
cd to entry for that reasorli
are now again open to pub-l
lic access, so hunters will be
able to pursue game through-
out Mason County as they
have in the past.
Mason County’s deer and bird
hunters, in addition to spending
the past few days preparing their
gear for the scheduled opening of
the annual hunting seasons next
Sunday, have been keeping their
fingers crossed and praying for
rain.
If they don’t get the rain—quite
a generous helping of it—chances
are strong that the state game
department or the Army or the
Forestry Department will step in
an delay the opening until weath—
er conditions have removed the
fire hazard which now exists in
the woods.
Best thing hunters can do is
keep their ears cocked on their
radios for last minute announce—
merits concerning action by one
of the agencies mentioned above
on hunting Seasons. l
Closures To Remain
After taking note of the re—
strictions already mentioned, an—
other subject requiring careful at—
tention of deer hunters is the doe
deer area in that part of the
county lying to the east Of the
Olympic-Bayshore highway
boundary. In that area shooting
of doe deer will be premitted dur-
ing the first week of the seaSon,
or from Oct. 4 through Oct. 11.
Here again areas closed to entry
for fire hazard reasons must be
taken into consideration.
Bear, Grouse Also Prey
Bear and ruffed grouse are oth-
er eligible prey of hunters alongl
with deer Sunday, always with,
the proviso, of course, that the‘
season is not delayed. i
Hunters this year are urged to
see that all deer hides are utiliz—
ed and not needlessly wasted. If
a hunter has no specific use for
his deer hide (or elk later when
that season opens) he is asked to
turn them over to a game pro-
tector who will see that it reach-
es the proper agency to be utiliz-
ed in the war effort.
Got it all straight, Mr. Deer-
51ayer? Then hie yourself forth
and have a good timer—and the.
best of luck to you,
And as a last bit of precaution,
ALWAYS ASSUME IT IS A HU-
MAN UNTIL DEFINITELY
PROVEN. OTHERWISE, then no
one Will be killed in the woods.
Remember. help is hard to get
these Wfil‘ days, so let’s not re--
fluce it any further by killing men
in the woods.

HIGl-lCLIMBERl.
Fans who saw Shelton’s open-
ing lineup at Aberdeen two weeks
ago won’t recognize the starting
eleven Coach alt Hakola plans
to put on the ield this afternoon
when the Highclimbers make their
first home appearance (one of but
two scheduled on Loop Field this
season) against the Raymond Sea-
gulls.
The kickoff is slated for three
o’clock today (Friday) and the
team the Highclimber grid men-
tor figures he’ll give the starting
nod will be:
Don Smith, center; Rusty Viger
and Lowell Jarvis, guards; Bill
Stevenson and Dick Fitchitt,
tackles; Clyde Landsall and Jack
Beckwith, ends; Joe Parsons,
quarterback; Dick Rector and
Norm Temple, halfbacks; and Jim
Howarth, fullback.
Landsall is a transfer from
New Mexico and has been Show—
ing the Shelton coach a lot of
ginger in practice, while several
sophomores have been looking
good and have been given oppor-
tunity to prove themselves in
game action as a result. These
sophs include Viger, Beckwith,
Parsons and Stevenson, while
Smith, Fitchitt, Rector and Tem-
ple are juniors who did not turn
out for football last year.
That leaves only Howarth and
Jarvis as lettermen in that prob—
able opening lineup. Hakola is
holding Ken Calkins, a backfield
letterman, for spot use while Jack
Page, another backfield vet, may
not be able to see much action
because of a musele strain suffer-
ed in scrimmage this week.
Last minute change possibili—

see either John Robinson or Al
Alexander at tackle in place Of
Fitchitt, and Chet Barger, the El—
ma transfer who was ineligible
all last season, at end instead of
Beckwith, the Shelton coachindi-
cated.
The Highclimbers are using a
little T—formation stuff in their
offense this season with Temple
handling the sphere and doing the
passing. Howarth is the No. 1
kicker.
Mrs. Dunning To See
Husband In San Diego
Mrs. George Dunning left Shel-
ton yesterday by bus for San
Diego where she will enjoy a few
days with her husband, recently
named to the postal inspection
department of the U.-S. Post Of-
fice Department. Mrs. Dunning
expects to be gone about ten
days.
Three dozen youthful traffic
cops, officially known as the
schoolboy patrol, have been duti—
fully patrolling street crossings in

Lincoln grade schools used by
their little classmates since the
opening of school, but as yet you
haven’t met them by name.
So here they are, as announced
this week by Miss Inga Kristian-

Both patrols are exactly the
same size as last year’s patrols
and will have no additional duties
to carry out. In addition to the
honor of being on the school pa-
trol (only boys whose deportment,
grades and leadership ability are
outstanding are chosen for the pa-
trol), members are rewarded for
their traffic guidance work with
free shows each week at the Gra-
ham and Paramount theatres
through the courtesy of Walter
Graham and G. A. Graf, the re-
spective proprietors, with a ban-
quet during the year given in
their honor by the Active Club,
which is the schoolboy patrol‘s
sponsoring organization, and oth-
er privileges which don’t come to
school children in general.
P. O. Sub-Station
On Hillcrest To
Open October 16
Hillcrest residents will enjoy
a more convenient postal service
on and after October 16, for a
sub-station will be opened on that
date in Ralph’s Grocery.
The sub-station, which will be
operated by Mrs. Ralph Crabill,
will provide all the services of the
main post office downtown such
as the sale of stamps, money or-
ders, postal savings, etc., except
that as yet no authority has been
granted to sell war savings bonds.
War savings stamps, however, will
be sold, Miss Jessie Knight, post-
master, said yesterday.

SIIELTON WOMAN’S KIN TELLS
OF LIFE. IN JAP PRISON CAMP
Reassuring word from her son-
in-laws, Dominic Encerti, a civil-
ian war prisoner taken by the
Japanese when they captured
Guam, has been received by Mrs.
Virginia Wilson, 325 Grove street.
Encerti has been in a war pris-
on at Kobe, Japan, since last Jan-
uary, but this is the first letter
he has been permitted to write,
[although he has previously sent
two short-wave radio messages
ltelling of his safety and good
health.
The letter received by Mrs. Wil-
son was passed along to her by
her daughter, Mrs. Encerti, who
is living in Sacramento. Quoting
the interesting passages from the
letter: .
“A few months have gone by
and finally the long awaited came
'to me, the day of being able to
write a few lines. It is natural for
me to think of you worrying but
there was nothing that could be
done about the whole thing.
“All my hopes are based on
faith, and you should do the same.
Whatever you do, let not worry
get the best of you. You must re—
member this is war and that I
could be a lot Worse off.
Hopes To Be Exchanged
uMy health is good and no harm
lwas done to me. Since the begin-
ning of the war I have been liv-
ing a good life. Of course the
main object of the .whole thing
is my great desire to get home.
It seems the Japanese and Amer-
ican governments are negotiat-
er. Do not stress too much on the
point—if I do it will be wonder-
ful, if I don’t it will not be good.
but you can rest assured of me
being well treated.
“All the American civilians of
Guam arrived in Japan in the mid-
dle of January. We were sent to
a war prison camp. After a week
we were moved to Kobe and in—
terned. The place we live in is
very good. We are in a group of
74 and We all get along well to-
gether. We have many books and
we play a lot of cards.

St. Louis Squares
Series With 4 to 3
Win Over Yank’s
St. Louis squared the 1942
World Series at a game apiece
yesterday with a 4 to 3 triumph
over the New York Yankees. Rook-
ie Johnny Beazley pitched the vic-
tory despite allowing ten hits, in-
cluding a home run by Keller in
the eighth with two aboard which
tied the score.
Enos Slaughter’s double and
Stan Musial‘s single scored the
winning run in the Cards’ half of
the eighth. St. Louis tallied twice
in the first on Walker Cooper’s
double with two aboard and added
the third run in the seventh just
before Keller’s wallop.

GARDEN CLUB DID
MUCH TO BEAUTIFY
TOWN PAST YEAR
Election of new officers and a
review of its accomplishments for
community betterment the past
year marked the first fall meeting
of the Shelton Garden Club, held
Monday in Memorial Hall.
!
Mrs. Marcus Rodgers w a s
chosen president, Mrs. Martha
Deer, honorary vice - president,
Mrs. Joseph Shimek second vice
president, Mrs. Vernice Johnson
recording secretary, Mrs. Winston
Scott corresponding secretary and
Mrs. Horace Skelsey Jr. treasurer.
The review was made by Mrs.
Emery Burley, retiring president,
who listed such contributions to-
ward the further beautification of
Shelton as:
1. $35 as final payment on the
Railroad avenue project from the
sale of corsages made by mem-
bers last Christmas,
2. $10 donated for the purchase
of shrubs to beautify the State
Forestry fire hall,
3. $25 for the purchase of
shrubs to be used in beautifying
the hospital grounds,
4. Donation of the lumber for
a 16-foot picnic table and benches
to be built at Kneeland Park,
5. $51.50 in proceeds from a
luncheon given at the Colonial
House last spring donated to the
Mason County Red Cross chap-
ter,
6. The flower show presented
by the club in June, the first
one sponsored without the help
I
of another organization, which
helped stimulate home garden
beautification.
At Monday's meeting, an addi-
tional $5.50 was pledged to pro-
vide five Red Cross kits which the
Mason County chapter is now fill-
ing for soldiers going overseas.
The Garden Club anticipates a
quiet year in 1943, its members
expecting to devote more time to
the study of horticulture than in
the past due to so many giving
their time to the war effort.
However, any project aimed at
further beautification of Shelton
will continue to receive the hear-
ty endorsement and active sup-
getting up at 7:30 for roll call,
then we walk to a park about a
block from here and have exer-
cise, come back and have break-
fast at 8:00. After breakfast we
have duties of cleaning the place,
the rest of the morning we can do
what we want. At 11:30 we have
lunch. At 2:00 we go back to the
park for three hours of playing
ball and other games. Supper is
at 5:30, roll call at 8:00 and to
bed at 9:00.
“The routine is about the same
each day. We have gone on trips
and seen a. lot of the pretty scen-
ery about Kobe. Kobe is a beau-
tiful city. We also go on shopping
tours and they are very interest-
ing. We are under the care of
the Kobe police department and
all the officers having anything
to do with us are very good.
“The Swiss consul represents us
and also brings money to us. We

is a poss1billty of our being ex—
changed before the summer is ov-

in handy for smokes and other in-
cidentals.”

president pointed out.

DAY
MILITARY BALL
TO GET STATE
GUARD FUNDS
Plans for a military dance to
raise funds to help equip its mem-
bers with uniforms, arms and
ammunition have been started by
a committee of the Shelton State
Guard Reserve Company, with
early indications pointing to one
of the most colorful public dances
this community has ever enjoyed.
Company Captain Frank L.
Worden named a. committtee con-
sisting of Clarence Grunert, Frank
Fentiman, Les Fields, Merritt
Kaphingst, Homer Taylor, Fred
Hickson, Bill Dickie, Dick Watson,
Laurie Carlson and Clint Oker—
strom to arrange details of the
dance.
The committee will hold its
first meeting immediately follow-
ing tonight's weekly company
drill in Lincoln gym, at which
time the date and place for hold-
ing the affair and other details
will be discussed.
The dance will probably be
held close to Hallowe’en, and pres-
ent plans include the presence of
all members of the new State
Guard company in uniform if they
can be supplied by that time. If
the uniforms can be received in
time, this will be Shelton‘s first
military dance.
Further details will be made
public as quickly as the commit-
tee can complete arrangements.
Last Friday’s company drill,
third since formation of the State
Guard Reserve here, was marked
by the mustering of ten new re-
cruits into the ranks, swelling the
company membership beyond the
eighty mark, and the first march-
ing exercises given the six squads
in the two platoons. Further drill
in the facing movements which
were introduced to the company
the previous week was also given.
School Budgets
Fine Condition
Lauded By Board
School budgets in general were
found to be in such excellent con-
dition for the 1942-43 term that
the Mason County Budget Review
Board was moved Friday evening,
at its annual review of final bud-
gets, to commend several Mason
county school directors individual-
ly for the fine job of budget pre-
paration they had done and to
comment on the situation as a
whole—a rather unusual condi-
tion, to be true.
All budgets were approved, in
many cases with balances to work
on during the present term. The
only' point on which the budget
review board found cause for crit-
icism occurred in the Shelton dis-
trict’s budget, which was passed
only after the board adopted a
resolution pointing out to the
Shelton school board that the am-
ount budgeted for salary and ex—
penses of the city superintendent
seemed excessive to the review
board and that in the future this
item should be given special at-
tention.
Sister Safe In China,
Miss Knight Learns
Belated though it was, Post-
master Miss Jessie Knight was
greatly relieved to receive word
this week that her sister, Mrs. J.
S. Emmons, was safe and in good
health in Shanghai, China, last
June.
The word came in a letter mail~
ed from New York, September 23
by a. friend of Mrs. Emmons who
had escaped from the captured
Chinese city and crossed both the
Indian and Atlantic oceans to
reach the U. S.
This was the first word of any
kind Miss Knight had received of
her sister since the war begun.
Film Supply Ample, I
No Shortage Known
Rumors being circulated in this
area by outside agents to the af-
fect that there will soon be no
more film for home and commer—
cial photography are entirely
without foundation, reports George
Andrews, Shelton commercial pho-
tographer.‘
“We have received no indica-
tions whatever from our whole-
salers that film will be difficult
to obtain, on the contrary have
been assured that the supply is
ample,” he commented.
School children will get an Op-
portunity to play an important
role in salvaging scrap metal for
Uncle Sam’s war effort starting
next Monday when they will be
asked to begin an inventory of
such metal in their communities
throughout Mason County.
County Supt. J. E. Martin has
asked teachers in all rural school
districts of the county to direct
the inventory of all scrap me-
tals in their districts, with stu-
dents doing the listing, and in
addition to select a suitable spot
in their district for a stock pile
and get the heavy metal collected
at those points.
Only heavy metals are wanted
at this time by the government,
although later all types of metal
will be sought, Supt. Martin said.
Persons with scrap metal of the
heavy types are asked to see that
it is, taken to the community
stock piles between October 5 and
24, after which it will be collect-
ed by county road district trucks
and taken to a central stock pile
for the entire county.
At the present time, plans for
conducting such a. heavy metal
drive in Shelton have not been
completed, but it is expected that
definite plans will be ready to an—
nounce within a few days.
The rural drive, however, will
get under way next week with
school teachers directing the in-
ventory and collection.
TEST PLANNED 0F
NOISE VOLUME 0F
SlGNAL DEVICES
A week from next Monday
there’ll be quite a hullabaloo ar—
ound here right at noon, for that
is the date (Oct. 12) and hour
chosen by the Mason County War
Council to see just how much
volume can be obtained from the
various signal devicos Shelton
possesses.
At the stroke Of noon, then,
the fire signal (which blows reg-
ularly at noon anyway). the pulp
mill’s steam whistle, and the pow-
erhouse steam whistle, will com-
mit a simultaneous din by way of
experiment to find out just how
far their collective noise can be
heard.
The experiment is being tried
in an effort to improve air raid
warning signals in this locality.
The date picked for the experi-
ment is that of the War Council’s
next meeting, so the result will be
fresh in the minds of the council
members when they meet that
evening in the courthouse at 7:30
o'clock. ‘ ‘
After deciding on the trial with
the signal devices, the Council
heard Lieut. Roy Wanless, chief
observation officer for the Olym-_ ‘4’.
pia filter center area. of the Air- n
craft Warning Service, express and}
opinion that “I personally am abs-‘4"
solutely certain the Japs will
to bomb us here in the Northwest";
We did it to them, they‘ll try to ”
retaliate to save face, if nothing
else.”
He also said Shelton has a
double worry in case of an air
raid, for not only is this area
likely to be bombed but it also is
a. highly likely sector over which
American interceptor d e f e n s 6
planes will contact the enemy, so
the second worry would be that
of planes being shot down in our
midst.
Lieut. Wanless said he believes
the Japs have planes cached in
hiding places along the Pacific
Coast which they will use to drop
incendiary and demolition bombs
at such time as they choose best
for their purposes. He said he be-
lieves the mystery plane which re-
cently dropped an incendiary
bomb in Oregon was possibly
such a cached plane.
Sullivan, Grunert
Open City Filing
Two filings for city council
posts, both by present councilmen,
have ‘broke the ice’ on the mun-
icipal political front.
John V. Sullivan, councilman-
at-large completing a two year
term; was first to toss his hat In
the ring but this time for a four-
year council term. He filed Wed-
nesday.
Clarence Grunert, completing by
appointment the unexpired term
of Paul Marshall, resigned, enter—
ed his name as a candidate for the
same chair, also for a four-year
term.
Filings close October 10.
BABY GIRL YESTERDAY
Mr. and Mrs. Delbert Elson of
Camp 3 became parents of a baby
girl yesterday at Shelton hospital.
