Lieut. Robert E. Hetrick, of Dimondale, Mich., was decapitated when he crashed to earth in his fast P-40
pursuit plane near Eastport, N. Y. Small trees and brush were sheared off by the plane for a quarter
of a mile as it was converted into this wreckage. Lieut. Hetrick, assigned to Mitchel Field, L. I., was
caught in a dense fog.

WAXAHACHIE. — The Waxa-
hachie Rotary Club is in receipt
of a communication from the Ro-
tary Club of Worksop, England.
The English club has selected
100 American Rotary clubs to
which they have written greet-
ings and best wishes, and the
Waxahachid club was among
them.
The letter is a commentary on
the spirit of the English peoples.
Although they are working un-
der great stress and handicap,
the Rotary letter emphasizes that
Rotary in England is going for-
ward in spite of all difficulties.
The club in Worksop has fur-
nished a movie projector for the
use of the RAF and the women
of Rotary are knitting furiously :
for the defense forces. The club !
also “adop' )d” a mine sweeper 1
and kept the men on the sweep-
er supplied with knitted com-
forts, tobacco and magazines.

j The young woman spoke loud-
er.
She got her divorce.

MEMPHIS. Tenn. — The story
of how a mongrel dog pulled
two youths to safety from a swift
Mississippi River current that
swept two other rescuers to their
deaths was told here Monday.
I Harold Harris, 9, and his broth-
er. Prentice, 11 were caught by
i the current while swimming Sun-
iday. At their cries. Walter Jones,
121, Troy Crcfford, 20, and W. H.
IFowinkle. 20, plunged in to help
them. “Poochie,” a one-year-old
mongrel, was passing the spot
with his owner, F. A. Becton,
and plunged into the water.
Crcfford and Fowinkle were
drawned in their rescue attempt.
The dog towed Harold to safety
by his hair, then returned to
I pull in Jones, who had become
| exhausted. Prentice was pulled
to safety by his brother, Bob
' Harris, 14.

It had been estimated at thejto ^1e y^xjs j,y an imminent at-
*tart of the selective service pro- j tack upon Russia from the east,
gram last October that 7 per. should such evidence result

I; 24 per cent in Group II; 38 herself in the same position as
M'’ ccnt in Group III; 24 per Germany; that is, that she will
be fighting a death battle on two
fronts.
I With regards to the war in
Russia Germany reported Tues-
day that Nazi troops have pene-'
trated territory at least a hun-
dred miles past the Dneiper
River and are at present only a
hundred miles fpom Moscow.
These claims, however, are sneer-
ed at by the Kremlin, and re-
ports from there say that Smo-
lensk, gateway to Moscow, is still
intact and that Nazi advances
have been hurled back on all
fronts, with huge losses inflicted.
England. Monday and Tuesday
maintained her policy of ham-
mering away at the western
front, with huge and disastrous
air raids on Ostend, Cherbourg,
Manheim and other important
Axis-held centers.
Indications are that in the near
future, if Britain keeps up her
merciless poundings. Germany
will be forced to withdraw a large
part of her air force from the
Russian front in order to coun-
teract the effects of the rapidly
growing British raids.
